"Problematic" does not BEGIN to describe Irving E Cox Jr's urtext of the men's rights movement-- "Love Story" (1956)-- a paranoid nightmare about the supposed feminization of postwar American culture that posits the insane and unnecessary question... What if first wave feminism is just the first step to a tyrannical dictatorship in which men are treated as sex slaves? It's a miserable read but a joy to interrupt as Kelly, Katai, and special guest Nick Wiger (Doughboys) groan, sigh, and scream their way through Cox's first draft of undergraduate misogyny and basic ass sci fi tropes, including "the morals squad" and "the compound" and "bachelor camps." There's a reason why Irving E. Cox Jr doesn't even have a Wikipedia page. Find out why when you listen to this unforgettable installment of Public Domain Theater.
