I strongly disagree--to me, it was an example of saying, "This guy is an asshole, but even he grasps the root of this thing I see as a problem, though his assholishness shows in this offensive way he interprets it"--but I also respect your view on the matter. And I sincerely apologize for pissing you off in your own LJ; I did not come to argue, only to read and join in a discussion, as I agreed entirely with your post and enjoy your BSG commentary and fic in general.

I will also say that the extent of my knowledge of Dirk Benedict is a) that he originally liked the new BSG and now dislikes it, and b) that article. He may have a greater reputation as a misogynist and an asshole in all sorts of ways that I am utterly unaware of; if so, then I apologize yet again, and say only that I spoke on what admittedly little I knew/know of the man.
