Sex in GR / Boredom in V-land

Just a reminder on a couple of topics cropping up on the list recently
(or flagrant self-promotion thinly disguised as scholarly exchange):

1.  Is Pynchon for men?
The case for Ruggles-the-misogynist can be found in:
Alec McHoul, "_Gravity's Rainbow_'s Golden Sections", _Pynchon Notes_,
20-21, Spring-Fall, 1987, 31-38.

2.  Is _Vineland_ boring? (And is this related to bad gender politics?)
See:
Alec McHoul, "_Vineland_: Teenage Mutant Ninja Fiction (or St Ruggles'
Struggles, chapter 4)", _Pynchon Notes_, 26-27, Spring-Fall, 1990, 97-106.

I still have some offprints of the former if anyone wants to send me their
snail mail address and would like one.
