How dumb are women?

It's about time! I've been waiting for a courageous feminist to speak out.

We know there's bias in news coverage, but, until now, no one has lifted the lid on "women's media."

That's changed. A brave woman stepped up and has blown the whistle on the whole women's media mess. Her name is Myrna Blyth and she lays it out in her revealing and often funny book, "Spin Sisters: How the Women of the Media Sell Unhappiness and Liberalism to the Woman of America" (St. Martin's Press).

She was part of the in-crowd – and very successful at that. The award-winning Blyth was executive editor of "Family Circle." Then, for 21 years she was editor in chief of "Ladies Home Journal" and also ran the business side of the magazine. She also was founding editor in chief and publishing director of "MORE" magazine. But gradually her views changed.

Blyth is more than qualified to criticize a business that on a regular basis tells women how to talk, how to dress, what to look like, how to raise children, how to find, keep and get rid of men, how to think and often, how to vote – a business that makes women victims.

She examines fashion, cosmetics, editorial content, advertising and internal politics. Like making sausage, it's not a pleasant sight, but since we spend the bucks to buy the magazines, clothes, makeup, treatments, food, exercise paraphernalia, diets, vacations – since we follow the advice in those ad-heavy pages on everything from dating, sex, medicine, marriages, child rearing, relations with extended families, education, jobs and careers, and yes, politics – it doesn't hurt to find out what's going on.

Every female of every age is targeted by the magazine and the advertiser, using the magazine as a marketing tool. Even children? Yes, magazines tout products aimed at those barely 6 or 7. Nail polish? Yes. Thongs? Yes. Bras? Yes, padded, at that. Why? Silly question ... get her in the habit of buying and wanting more and more and more.

Ask yourself:

• Are you sick of five-pound magazines that are 4.5 pounds of advertising?

• Are you sick of ads for makeup, which turn out to be no different than what you already own at a quarter the price?

• Are you sick of editors touting products that just coincidentally are advertised in those same editions?

• Are you sick of "fashion" magazines highlighting incredibly ugly and scandalously overpriced clothing draped on emaciated size "0" models – clothes which don't even begin to fit the figure, budget or lifestyle of the average woman?

• Are you sick of 14-year-old models, made up to look 24, because the real 24-year-olds are already too old?

• Are you sick of women's magazines having morphed into soft porn with models of every sexual persuasion, combination, number and position, laid out (often literally) across two pages in full color?

• Are you sick of heroine chic, perversion and sex being fed to our children as something to be emulated?

• Are you sick of being told to change your looks to meet standards set by people who get paid to come up with something different every month to get you to spend money you don't have, on stuff you don't need and often, already have?

• Are you tired of being told you're always too tall, short, fat, frizzy, old, wrinkled, hassled, stressed, sick, misunderstood or put-upon?

I am. Most women are.

The average woman knows that magazines and television aimed at women, are filled with colorful presentations, so-called beautiful people – public-relations created and promoted celebrity "icons" – advice about everything under the sun and, of course, millions of dollars of advertising.

There's so much bias and perfidy, they should pay us to read and watch, not the other way around!

Are those running "women's media" too brainwashed to realize they're presenting false reality? Are they afraid to speak their minds or are they just too dumb?

Perhaps the last isn't totally true – although there are some who really are too dumb. I've met them!

Myrna Blyth sees it as a closed club of women editors, writers, stylists, TV personalities (think Diane, Katie, Barbara) and others who think that everyone thinks as they do and it's their role to teach us what we should know. That their views are mostly liberal and don't allow for dissent doesn't enter their minds. They deny they have a political view.

If so, why do they assume that all women are pro-choice, anti-war, anti-gun, anti-capital punishment, pro-environmentalism, irreligious, pro-diversity and multicultural and, by the way, vote Democrat. If you don't fit that mold, you're ignored.

Which is what they're trying to do to Myrna Blyth. They've circled the wagons and, when not ignoring her book, they call her names. One choice one: "Old!"

Keep laughing, Myrna. It proves you're right!
