"Male Friendship Is Predicated On Violence and Drunkenness

There are no long-term close relationships between women on BSG, and there is only one long-term relationship between two men. [...] It is truly hard to say which gender has it worse in this situation. Is it more awful to be a woman in a world where women never have close relationships, or to be a man in a world where the only way you can express brotherly love is through violence?"

-- Annalee Newitz, in The Men Who Make Battlestar Galactica Feminist, on io9.com.

I've seen so much of this dude dynamic in real life. I guess I should have posted it on Superbowl Sunday. (Warning: SPOILERS in the article, in case you still don't know who's a cylon.)
