I wouldn't go as far as to say he's a bastion of feminism at all. I'm not even sure I'd call it an isolated slip up so much since he's said things like this before. (I remember him commenting in a 1988 WON that the Jumping Bomb Angels were starting to look like Buddy Rose, which is honestly worse than what he said here, but was 30 years ago and for that reason won't get as much play.) I think it's more that he's wildly aloof and has covered wrestling so long that he's become numb to some of its worst practices. I don't know. I know I keep defending him, and that's not what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to make sense of it, because there are parts of what he says and does that don't square with other parts at all, and it's a tough contradiction to make sense of.
