...contentious issue and that I will probably lose friends over the course of this little polemic. I am not here to argue that men should wear, as The New York Times’s Guy Trebay recently complained, “mommy jeans or pants reminiscent of Ted Danson in ‘Cheers.’” I am merely attempting to facilitate dialogue on an unaddressed problem...

The show may actually be an endorsement of politically correct attitudes, points out Jack Nachbar, professor of popular culture at Ohio's Bowling Green State University. ''If you have a bigot put in front of you and made to look ridiculous,'' he says, ''then that becomes an attack on bigotry. Beavis and Butt-Head, politically incorrect...
