To be fair, I'd argue that an obsession with dicks is not counterindicated by an all-male writers room.
That's true. But most guys obsessing about dicks don't want them cut off.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I would bet cash money that as a narrative device, "and also his penis was TRAGICALLY MISSING" occurs more often when a dude is writing.

I don't know. Seems like a lot of women fantasize about cutting off tallywhackers.
Then again, you've got Hemingway in your corner.

That's why God made poison.

But isn't setting someone on fire so much more dramatically satisfying?

While fire is my true love, it depends on what poison you use. You can get some really fun, with pretty colors! interesting effects if you pick the right poison. Plus, not as easy to trace to whodunit.
Or so I've read in books. Which I read for writing research. No other reason.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
One of my friends used to do con security. She was working with Christopher Lambert once and noticed that his personal security was all women. She asked him why, and reportedly he said something like, "Because guys come at me with swords a LOT, and men will engage, every time. Women just take the idiots down."
