And just because it's been going on since the 1920's doesn't mean it shouldn't stop.

It's worth noting that a lot of this stuff is written
by women these days. Eg, look at Esther Friesner's books published by Baen: "Chicks 'n Chained Males", "Fangs for the Mammaries", etc. It's inaccurate to blame it all on sexist male authors.
