In response to Wolte.CS's comments on 11/3 "most of the violence is
directed against women....I don't know if this equates to sexism or
misogyny,...."

It equates reality.  Statistics show that the majority of violence is
is directed against women and usually the violence is random or with
out provocation, i.e. rape, child abuse, spousal abuse, purse snatching.

In this respect, Twin Peaks is only reflecting the society we live in.
The fact that many on this net are unhappy with this depiction
suggests that maybe attitudes are changing.  But I won't be rushing to
sell my attack dog.
