Bikers Hardly Proponents Of Traditional Domesticity
An online theologian observed, “I don't know much about Adam Carolla but he has a new book out. He brought up the fact that every time you see a man and a woman on a motorcycle, you see the man on the front and the woman on the back. Why is that if genders are totally equal?”
My response: What is being left off is that Carolla in his next statement provided the explanation.
It was simply that the sort of men that usually own motorcycles are dominant.
They are not going to sit in what these sorts refer to as “the bitch seat”.
Motorcycles are morally neutral.
However, it should also be pointed out that many bikers aren’t exactly fonts of the sort of behavior conservative Christians would want to emulate.
They do not treat women the way that they do out of a devotion to the medieval codes of chivalry.
Neither should Corolla, though often insightful as a libertarian pundit, be celebrated as a proponent of demure feminine modesty.
He does, after all, owe much of his notoriety as the host of a program titled “The Man Show”, a prominent feature of which consisted of a scantily clad woman bouncing on a trampoline with her bosom jiggling in the breeze as they did spread eagle leg splits midair facing the camera.
