Duped By Borat
Here's
the story of Linda Stein, a New York artist fooled by Ali G, a.k.a.
Borat, who came to interview her.
Stein, who appears to have been born without a sense of humor, makes "female 'Knights,' larger-than-life sculptures of warrior women that I created post-9/11 to evoke peace and protection, and to counter the vulnerability I felt running from the burning towers."
Whatever it takes. But here's the part that kinda made me laugh: She got really mad when Borat declared that women have smaller brains than men. "For the sake of a cheap laugh, he chooses to reinforce the stereotype of women as the inferior sex, at the expense of women."
That, Klein concludes, is a conversation more suited to Larry Summers....
