Joss Whedon speech: Why I write strong female characters (video)

Just when I was sure that Joss Whedon could not get cooler, my pal Chivalrous posted a link to a YouTube video of the Buffy and Firefly creator giving a speech for the feminist group Equality Now.  As always, Joss alternates between being profound and funny, often within the same sentence.  Makes me think there is hope for the the male species after all.

I blogged previously about the grassroots Firefly fan effort to raise money for Equality Now on Whedon’s birthday in June.
