It's extracts from his book about his views and actions with respect to women. I don't think it's a good idea to read it if you are feeling in any way not in the mood.

Ugh I am so sick of romanticizing people into idols. Talk about their work, yes, but the whole concept of an idol is so misleading and helps noone.

@o_guest, but I cannot quite say why because it goes way back. My culture aggrandizes “great men” and American culture is way too enamored with superheroes. Just so odd to me!2 replies 0 retweets 2 likes -
Some ppl never grow up ;) --"Great men" has also a different connotation.
