I'm going to throw it out there that my point was that that was worse than average, otherwise I wouldn't have mentioned it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

BBT Question from this weekend's catch up on shows: Is it just me, or has Sheldon gotten a lot more misogynistic this season? Maybe I am misremembering past seasons, but his women are weakminded/illogical/lesser beings comments seem to have really ramped up this year.

I have totally noticed that too, Lee.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
I hadn't actually put my finger on why, but I had noticed Sheldon has been pissing me off more than usual of late. I think you've highlighted a big part of why.

Does this imply that Charlie Sheen was a good influence on Chuck Lorre?

Ann, that's a ferret.
I'd say the problem is more Amy than Sheldon. In past seasons, she was a match for Sheldon -- comparable intellectually (and in social skills), and willing to stand up to him. This season, she seems to have lost 75 IQ points or so and become Sheldon's and Penny's sidekick. While Amy becoming a social being could be an interesting theme to the show, the scriptwriters are not taking her in good directions.
I think Sheldon is just reacting in his usual way to the change in Amy. He sees her deference to him as no more than what he deserves as a superior being and what he demands from everyone.

I think I disagree with it being just an Amy issue. It's how Sheldon has been dealing with his assistant as well, and in the most recent ep, a large part of Leonard and Sheldon's fight involved Sheldon telling Leonard he was drinking too much soy milk and the estrogen from that was making him think like a woman, which was clearly a BAD THING.

I mean, it was always in there, but now you could really see why Leslie Winkle might really hate Sheldon.(Not that we saw it that much while she was on.)

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Matt,
have you heard about the man who is being hunted by the LAPD - allegedly killing the daughter and future son-in-law of a LA cop, killing another cop, and injuring two other cops -
Charlie Sheen put out a video asking the guy to contact him and turn himself in to him. He would escort him to the police.
So, Charlie Sheen is unpredictable, not really a nice person, but I guess he is trying.

That would only work in a movie, though, not real life. But at least CS craziness might accomplish something?
