The Framework

The Framework demands the outlawing of “group libel” that it defines as “defamatory comments made in public and aimed against a group…or members thereof, with a view to inciting to violence, slandering the group, holding it to ridicule or subjecting it to false charges.”

The Framework said it hopes to take “concrete action to combat intolerance, in particular with a view to eliminating racism, colour bias, ethnic discrimination, religious intolerance, totalitarian ideologies, xenophobia, anti-Semitism, anti-feminism and homophobia.”

I am an antifeminist.

For me to say, in public, that feminism erases the crimes of female rapists would become a crime itself - regardless of whether what I say is true.

For me to point out that the gender wage gap is a useful lie, that the global conspiracy of 'Patriarchy' is a myth, or that feminists reinforce gender stereotypes when they are useful ("male tears"), judge others by their appearance so long as they are male ("neckbeards", "fedora-wearers"), and sex-shame men whenever possible with terms like 'creep' and sleaze' whilst demanding females cannot be judged

.. to unveil blatant hypocrisy in condemning the outfits of the dancers in "Blurred Lines" whilst going on topless slut-walks, and always, always, portraying men as wicked, demented, mutated shadows of women.. even to the extreme of making plans to exterminate our kind

to simply mention this as I do now could result in my incarceration.

Feminist Dogma holds that the Patriarchy exists because old white men act for the benefit of all men. Look at the image below. Doesn't this test your faith even a *little*?

The Male Feminist




jungs-endless-shadow:
There is really little more loathsome than the male feminist who throws his gender under the bus in order to win affections from the women around him.
Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not talking about all male feminists. I am talking about a certain type. You know the kind. The kind displayed in...
"The kind who thinks that feigning disgust at their own gender in an attempt to placate female feminists with the mentalities of toddlers will win them some sort of affection."

The trouble is, it works. A lot of the male feminists writing for journals are even more extreme that most of the women.

…the whole thing is just a really well-disguised tantrum that guys are content to throw to make it seem like prostate cancer research is as important as research towards curing women’s cancers…

Alex Manley (Male Feminist writer for The Link newspaper) on “No Shave November”.

I've done my best to screenshot this because Feminist journals are subject to Stalinist-style 'editing' of history, to view, click on the image then right click, view image and zoom in with "control +", or just save the image and view it in an editor". Blogger is clumsy at dealing with images, alas.

There's no good way of dealing with this sort of revisionism although there are attempts to partially counter it with systems like the wayback machine.



Either they are sociopaths happy to see their own kind slaughtered so long as they get to be last, or their self-loathing is reaching the sort of medieval extreme that led people to cut the circulation to body parts, letting them die and rot off, crying "see God! I hate myself as much as you, please spare me your wrath!"

http://www.cancer.org/cancer/prostatecancer/detailedguide/prostate-cancer-key-statistics

"About 29,720 men will die of prostate cancer "

http://www.cancer.org/cancer/breastcancer/detailedguide/breast-cancer-key-statistics

"About 39,620 women will die from breast cancer"

http://www.cancer.org/cancer/breastcancerinmen/detailedguide/breast-cancer-in-men-key-statistics

"About 410 men will die from breast cancer" (1.03%, despite the fact it is usually quoted as less than 1%)

There were 178.6 million females in the United States in 2009. The number of males was 151.4 million.

So the relative incidence of (prostate/breast )cancers in men and women are approx equal. (88.5%)

Now, the amount raised through charities for breast cancer is pretty difficult to assess but apart from Movember, there's nothing for men (and male breast cancer patients don't even get access to mammograms).

Breast cancer charities are a money spinner.

"For eight years, American Breast Cancer Foundation paid Joseph Wolf's telemarketing company to generate donations.

His mother, Phyllis Wolf, had founded the Baltimore-based charity and was its president until she was forced to resign in 2010.

While she ran the charity, her son's company, Non Profit Promotions, collected $18 million in telemarketing fees." 

http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/factsheet/NCI/research-funding

How much does NCI spend each year on research for specific types of cancer?

The following table shows NCI spending in FY 2010, 2011, and 2012 for the 10 most common types of cancer in the United States, based on 2012 incidence estimates (and excluding basal cell and squamous cell skin cancers).** The cancers are listed in decreasing order of incidence (i.e., from the highest number of new cases to the lowest).

**Source of spending data: NCI Office of Budget and Finance (OBF).

Cancer Type2010 Spending
(in millions)
2011 Spending
(in millions)
2012 Spending
(in millions)




Prostate300.5288.3265.1
Breast631.2625.1602.7

Relative funding for men = (265.1/602.7) * (151.4 / 178.6) *100% = 37.29%

So there's a real gap here, where one charity out of the hundreds or even thousands can embezzle the equivalent of 6.8% of the total funding for prostate cancer and get away with it for years.

Manley's argument is that old white men deserve to die. He never offers this honestly, of course, and probably is going to be one himself (most US feminists are white).

Why? Because people outside the west die young. So spending charity on old men (the main victim of prostate cancer) is bad.

This is a stupid, ageist, sexist argument. Stupid, because the stuff that kills Chinese people, for example, is air pollution, and that exists for reasons that a US charity cannot solve.

Sexist, because he never suggests cutting charities for old women, and is keen on telling men suffering to "man up" (Feminism means escaping your gender roles, so long as you are female).

 And ageist, because he's suggesting that the lives of old people .. just don't matter.

People under 20 years of age made up over a quarter of the U.S. population (27.3%), and people age 65 and over made up one-eighth (12.8%) in 2009.[14] The national median age was 36.8 years.

Perhaps he should redirect the charities to dealing with the terrible scourge of these old white men he hates so much?










Is Alex Manley's future something square and crunchy?

A better understanding of Anti-Feminism.

by  Mr. Cappadocia, edited by myself.

(source)

If you read nothing else I’ve ever written, or ever will write, please read this because it may make everything about my philosophy clear.
(Speaking in response to the suicide of Earl Silverman, a man who operated Canada’s only male run men’s shelter, after he had been rfepeatedly denied funding for his shelter while the Canadian government had set aside $350,000,000.00 for Feminist run women’s shelters.)

Blondeyed says: "The Governor General of Canada is male. The Prime Minister of Canada is male. The Speaker of the Senate is male. Over half of current Canadian senators are male. The majority of Canadian Supreme Court judges are male. The majority of members of the Canadian Parliament are male.

See where I’m going with this? The government that you are so infuriated with, the one that refused to provide funding for Canada’s only domestic abuse shelter for men, is primarily made up of men. And you blame feminists"

Because you’re right, you’re completely right. All of those men in power and not a single one of them thought it would be prudent to fund a men’s shelter. Even a *single* men’s shelter, despite devoting hundreds of millions to women’s shelters.

You make it that far but then you don’t stop to ask why. Why didn’t those men in power fund that shelter? You of course will think “Because Patriarchy!” and that’s where you would be completely wrong (and also why I blame Feminism for what I’m about to explain).
There’s a big huge gigantic difference between men and women that is incredibly significant but almost never discussed. Own group bias. Women have it, men don’t. This means that men prefer women, and women prefer women, but nobody prefers men.

As explained here: Four experiments confirmed that women’s automatic in-group bias is remarkably stronger than men’s and investigated explanations for this sex difference, derived from potential sources of implicit attitudes (L. A. Rudman, 2004). In Experiment 1, only women (not men) showed cognitive balance among in-group bias, identity, and self-esteem (A. G. Greenwald et al., 2002), revealing that men lack a mechanism that bolsters automatic own group preference.

I cannot overemphasize how important the above paragraph is. Everything else being even, women favor women over men, and *men* favor women over men.

There’s more though, because many women clearly like men… so what gives? And this is a second very important part of why Anti-Feminism exists. Because Feminists, for example, only really see this guy:

image

and never this guy:

image

When they do their comparisons… in their pursuit of “equality” it’s not the homeless man they expect to be equal to… it’s the wealthy executive.

The truth is many women do the exact same thing. Poor, undesirable, pathetic men are of no interest to them. None. This is actually the root of the “Nice Guy” meme. He’s a man that comes pre-rejected and so is worthy of nothing but scorn, ridicule, contempt, and hate.

This isn’t some massive plot at work. This is *human nature*. It’s instinct. Women care about other women as a survival technique, and men don’t care about the well being of other men as a reproductive technique. This forced competition, often to the death, among men, is very cruel but has been decidedly beneficial to the human race as a whole.

So women care about men at the top, and other women, but not the men at the bottom. Powerful men care about women, and men at the bottom care about women. Nobody, however, is especially concerned with those men at the bottom and they make up a HUGE percentage of men. And we just don’t care about them.

That’s why all the most powerful men divert so many resources to the care and well being of women while *simultaneously* being relatively disinterested in aiding other men. Not only are women the majority of voters, but there is a built in justification for doing so.

Feminism, being composed largely of women, mimics society. It sees the top men, makes policy based on the top men, and casually ignores the bottom men. The last Feminist I’ve heard of that tried to set up a men’s shelter was Erin Prizzey and Feminists *killed her dog* and drove her out of England. Here’s where it gets interesting. Because right now in your head you might be thinking that’s terrible they killed her dog. So your sympathy is with the woman that lost her dog, or maybe even the dog that lost its life. It’s not with the men who lost the domestic abuse shelter. You didn’t even give them a passing thought.

And all of society is like this. All of it. The men at the bottom get ignored, get glossed over, get scorned, get ridiculed, get sneered at. And Feminism, as what is currently substituting for “gender studies” aids and abets this because it does its damndest to ensure nobody ever thinks about those men at the bottom.

So now not only do people just naturally avoid thinking about the bottom men… now Feminists actively work to *ensure* nobody has any interest in them or their suffering.

And that’s a damn fine reason to be Anti-Feminist.

When asked: “You [Greer] were once quoted as saying your idea of the ideal man is a woman with a dick. Are you still that way inclined?"
Dr Greer (denying that she said it): “I have a great deal of difficulty with the idea of the ideal man. As far as I’m concerned, men are the product of a damanged gene. They pretend to be normal but what they’re doing sitting there with benign smiles on their faces is they’re manufacturing sperm. They do it all the time. They never stop. I mean, we women are more reasonable. We pop one follicle every 28 days, whereas they are producing 400 million sperm for each ejaculation, most of which don’t take place anywhere near an ovum. I don’t know that the ecosphere can tolerate it.”

"Sex as desired by the class that dominates women is held by that class to be elemental, urgent, necessary, even if or even though it appears to require the repudiation of any claim women might have to full human standing.

"In everything men make, they hollow out a central place for death, let its rancid smell contaminate every dimension of whatever still survives. Men especially love murder.

"Marriage as an institution developed from rape as a practice. Rape, originally defined as abduction, became marriage by capture.

"The nuclear family must be destroyed, and people must find better ways of living together…. Whatever its ultimate meaning, the break-up of families now is an objectively revolutionary process….

"We are taught, encouraged, moulded by and lulled into accepting a range of false notions about the family.

"Catharine MacKinnon maintains that ‘the private is a sphere of battery, marital rape and women’s exploited labor.’ In this way, privacy and family are reduced to nothing more than aspects of the master plan, which is male domination. Democratic freedoms and the need to keep the state’s nose out of our personal affairs are rendered meaningless. The real reason our society cherishes privacy is because men have invented it as an excuse to conceal their criminality. If people still insist that the traditional family is about love and mutual aid—ideals which, admittedly, are sometimes betrayed—they’re ‘hiding from the truth.’ The family isn’t a place where battery and marital rape sometimes happen but where little else apparently does. Sick men don’t simply molest their daughters, they operate in league with their wives to ‘breed’ them for that purpose."

"And let’s put one lie to rest for all time: the lie that men are oppressed, too, by sexism—the lie that there can be such a thing as ‘men’s liberation groups.’ Oppression is something that one group of people commits against another group, specifically because of a ‘threatening’ characteristic shared by the latter group—skin, color, sex or age, etc. The oppressors are indeed FUCKED UP by being masters, but those masters are not OPPRESSED. Any master has the alternative of divesting himself of sexism or racism—the oppressed have no alternative—for they have no power but to fight. In the long run, Women’s Liberation will of course free men—but in the short run it’s going to cost men a lot of privilege, which no one gives up willingly or easily. Sexism is NOT the fault of women—kill your fathers, not your mothers".

MALE:…represents a variant of or deviation from the category of female. The first males were mutants…the male sex represents a degeneration and deformity of the female.

MAN:…an obsolete life form… an ordinary creature who needs to be watched…a contradictory baby-man…

~From ‘A feminist Dictionary; ed. Kramarae and Triechler, Pandora Press, 1985:

"If the classroom situation is very heteropatriarchal—a large beginning class of 50 to 60 students, say, with few feminist students—I am likely to define my task as largely one of recruitment…of persuading students that women are oppressed

~Professor Joyce Trebilcot of Washington University, as quoted in Who Stole Feminism: How Women Have Betrayed Women.

"Life in this society being, at best, an utter bore and no aspect of society being at all relevant to women, there remains to civic-minded, responsible, thrill-seeking females only to overthrow the government, eliminate the money system, institute complete automation, and destroy the male sex."

~Valerie Solana, SCUM Manifesto (Society for Cutting Up Men.)

"Men, as a group, tend to be abusive, either verbally, sexually or emotionally. There are always the exceptions, but they are few and far between (I am married to one of them). There are different levels of violence and abuse and individual men buy into this system by varying degrees. But the male power structure always remains intact."
Message on FEMISA, responding to a request for arguments that men are unnecessary for a child to grow into mature adulthood.

And:

Another posting on FEMISA: “Considering the nature and pervasiveness of men’s violence, I would say that without question, children are better off being raised without the presence of men. Assaults on women and children are mostly perpetrated by men whom they are supposed to love and trust: fathers, brothers, uncles, grandfathers, step-fathers.”
