Stan Berenstain, co-creator of The Berenstain Bears, has died at the age of 81 or 82 (I’ve since both numbers given, so let’s just call it “up there”). As a kid, I read a ton of Berenstain Bears books, and it makes me smile on the inside that my own kids have read several, too.

In Stan’s honor, I’ll be posting my infamous essay “A Furry Fistful of Feminism: Sex and the Berenstain Bears” later today, from HITCH 19. Stan probably would’ve hated it, but I’m going to do it anyway.
