Now, from the AFC blog I learn that the real winner in this case is the Bravo producer/editor who created Miles' narrative for the episode. A man manipulating a woman! Convincing her to take off her panties! That's one way to go.But I want to know why everyone accepted Miles' explanation of the punched out wall representing the male loss of control, when in fact the breaking of furniture, walls and windows is an age-old method of controlling women. It sends a clear message: "See the damage my fist does to this wall? Just imagine the damage I can do to you. Don't piss me off." I was gonna give Miles the win, not for his wood construction but for his performance piece on the subject: “Male.”
