Sexism Jokes

Dear Star Savior,

Hi. I'm actor Charlie Sheen. In some angry voice mail I sent my ex-wife Denise Richards in 2005, I used the N-word and the C-word. The message was leaked onto the Internet this week, and I'm catching a lot of heat for it. I have apologized for my choice of words, but I'm not sure that was enough. What should I do?

Lunch Meeting. Hate."

But you can use your celebrity to help turn things around. more...

o Early release of some male prisoners.
o A compulsory course for all judges detailing a sentencing policy
that will yield a more gender-balanced prison population.
o An "equality based arrest policy" that basically consists of
arbitrarily arresting women.
It is this third provision which has raised the most controversy.
