Whoa!
I'd heard that he was a *tad* misogynistic, but I had no idea he was THAT vile.
I've never followed Dilbert, so I did a little google to get a low-down of all the characters in the strip. Turns out all the female characters are "bitter" (and by that, I actually mean another descriptor of women that starts with a `b`).
Gosh, if only we females would learn to control out emotions, maybe we'd deserve equal pay!

Not to be a buzzkill (which means I am totally about to be a buzzkill), Scott Adams has some controversial views about women in the workplace. This is one of the reasons I choose not to support him.
