A reply to HuffPost's rather curious assertion.
Feminist: "Feminism: great for women... also great for men!"
Sane Person: "Uh huh. So when you disrupted a conference on male suicide by pulling fire alarms, singing "Cry Me a River" and offering to collect the male tears of the brothers and sons of the dead, how was that helping men?"
Feminist: "The fact that you question Feminism is the reason we need Feminism!"
Sane Person: "That's a deflection. Why don't you answer the question?"
Feminist: "Why do you hate women?"
Mackenzie Traylor (Feminist) replied:
Those aren't feminists. Those are people acting under the name of feminism who have no idea what the movement is truly about, and who don't care what the movement is about.
Those are people who are trying to use a good movement for their own selfish needs. Every movement has people like that. It's horrible. But, they should not be allowed to define the movement itself.
Those aren't feminists. Feminists are supporting the discussion. Feminists truly understand the gender inequality and strive to end it. Feminists do not ignore the problems of another gender or race or sexual identity.Those women you're talking about aren't feminists. They're just using the title to carry on their petty little acts. They're ruining the reputation of a good movement.

For a not-a-feminist, it's funny how welcome she was to feminist conferences,
how feminist bookstores sold her books,
& how feminists taught her work in feminist courses in Universities.
[breaks added to create legibility]
"Those aren't feminists."
Andrea Dworkin, the founder of modern Feminism, the person who set up Gender Studies courses at Universities, and started Social Justice Warfare. |
"Those are people acting under the name of feminism who have no idea what the movement is truly about"
And you alone know the True Feminism? This sounds familiar. How did this Divine Revelation occur? And how come the other lot are follower of the Gourd? Are they not true Brianists - I mean, Feminists?
I wouldn't mind so much if Feminism DID declare itself a religion
- I accept that religions are a matter of faith
It is interesting to see Islamism and Feminism blurring into each other. |
Ayaan Hirsi Ali is a Female Rights Advocate. Which is why she opposes Islam in it's current form. And why Feminists hate her. |
" Those are people who are trying to use a good movement for their own selfish needs."
Do you have any evidence of what is in their mind? Have they written anything to indicate they are insincere? That they don't believe in The Patriarchy(TM)?
They qualify. They are accepted as Feminists by other Feminists, taught their Feminism by Feminists in Feminist courses at Universities, attend Feminist conferences without being removed, etc etc.
To argue that they are not Feminists if they are inconvenient is the same sophistry that was used to excuses the atrocities of Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot.

"they should not be allowed to define the movement itself."
The people leading the movement define the movement.
When Feminist lecturers are telling students to assault journalists, and other Feminists - like you - refuse to campaign against them and change the way Feminism is taught - then you are responsible for what they do.
You might be a nice Nazi - you don't hurt any Jews yourself.
But you always turn away when the smoke comes into your town, you always look away when the trains of people crying and begging for help roll past.
Stop making excuses.
"Feminists are supporting the discussion. "
To support the discussion, you have to allow differing points of view.
Whereabouts do you imagine Feminists do this?
Instead, they campaign to have dissidents silenced - sometimes violently. Might want to look up what happened to Milo recently.
"Feminists truly understand the gender inequality and strive to end it. "
Think about what you mean by "equality". Do you mean equality of opportunity - what Feminists used to fight for - or equality of outcome?
Is it equal to pay one group less than the other on basis of sex?
Was Prime Minister Gillard "Not a True Feminist"? She had the meaning of a word altered to match the Feminist usage. She's been applauded as a Feminist by Feminist organisations world wide. Suddenly you decide she's not a Feminist - and never was?
"Feminists do not ignore the problems of another gender or race or sexual identity. "
Wow, have you met any Feminists? What planet do these ones come from, because the ones here think the decline in male education is something to celebrate.
Seriously, read a few articles on the Huff Post, change the sexes around, or the races. White boys are the worst off in a lot of ways.
Don't see any feminists complaining about that.
Indoctrinate a child, and you can persuade them to murder in your name. |
You can make children do anything. Inform on their parents and their friends, run death camps. Adults ask questions. Adults don't Listen and Believe. |
Looking at the dwindling numbers of women who identify as Feminsits - it's doing that to itself quite nicely. No wonder Feminists want to make the teaching of it's ideology compulsory to children. It's unable to recruit by reason, but if it can just catch young minds before they are able to think critically...
Kristen Tea (Feminist) said:
"Because men aren't capable of dealing with their own issues? Feminism must be devoted to fixing all of those issues, in addition to women's abuse, homelessness, rape, etc.? MRAs only bring those men's issues up to counter feminism, not because they actually care about them. When's the last time you organized and donated to men's shelters? Do you know how women's domestic abuse shelters came about? We needed them and created them."
Kristen Tea
"Because men aren't capable of dealing with their own issues? "
the funny thing about egalitarian movements is they treat people equally.
An egalitarian who sees a homeless couple shivering in the cold doesn't decide only the white person there, or the straight person, gets shelter... they provide shelter for both.
Feminists play favourites. They only care about women - but they take taxes generated by men to solve the problems.
"Feminism must be devoted to fixing all of those issues"
Actually, we're fine with Female Rights Activists who only focus on female rights - but don't actively impede us. Feminists will disrupt any meetings we hold, will alter laws to make funding DV shelters impossible, will continually preach that our very masculinity is toxic and even call for genocide.
When Erin Pizzey set up DV shelters for women, Feminists approved. When she tried to do the same for men, Feminists threatened the lives of her family, and she had to flee the country.
"MRAs only bring those men's issues up to counter feminism"
Father's rights advocates have existed since the Tender Years doctrine. Many MRAs came with the 2nd wave Feminists. We marched in the marches and sang the songs and thought that helping women was just and never dreamt that Feminists would stab us in the back.
Feminists decided men were no longer to be Feminists, but, at best - allies. They sabotaged every effort we made to protect men. They even tried to get us declared terrorists through the SPLC. Feminists actively discriminate against men in the laws they make, and call for even antifeminist thoughts to be criminalised.
Feminists actively harm men.
70% of unprovoked domestic violence is by women
"When's the last time you organized and donated to men's shelters?"
Since Feminists disrupt any meeting to discuss the issue, how the hell do you imagine that can work?
Since Feminists would rather close shelters rather than allow them to be unisex - and that includes open to the sons as well as the daughters! - how would such shelters work?
The blood and sweat of men is used to build the shelters for women - that's taxation, and the taxes should be spent on all of us, according to need - not just white people, not just straight people, and not just female people.
Feminists are gender supremacists.
" Do you know how women's domestic abuse shelters came about? "
Yes. You don't.
"We needed them and created them."
You didn't have anything to do with it. You have no idea who Ms Pizzey is.
The Duluth Model Feminists put into place exists to make damn sure that DV is all gynocentric - that a female abuser can get away with her crimes, that a male victim has nowhere to turn to for help.
Every point you have made indicates you have never checked to see if the things you believe are true.
Someone told you things that you like, and so you believed blindly.
I don't expect you to look at my references, or to research anything outside of feminist opinions. I really don't care if you can be bothered reading a word outside your echo chamber.
But the truth is here, for any open minded person.
They can check - either through my writing or their own research
- if what i have said is true
- by simply venturing outside the Feminist framework, looking at the work of criminologists, of biologists, of psychiatrists and of people like Erin Pizzey who started the fight for men, and who were defeated by your movement, which now lies and lies and lies in order to make sure no protection is extended to men - and every cent is spent on their favoured kind.

Educational Biases against Boys:
“…the research, carried out among 1,200 children in 29 schools across the country (England), had shown a possible reason for the glaring gap in performance between girls and boys right through schooling.
It also revealed that girls tried harder if they had a male teacher because they believed they would get better marks.
Their suspicions were not borne out, though, as the male teachers tended to give them exactly the same marks as the external examiners.
The study showed boys believed their answers would be 3 per cent lower if marked by a woman. The girls thought their results would be 6 per cent higher if marked by a man.”
"...female teachers did, on average, award lower marks to boys than unidentified external examiners. Male teachers, by contrast, awarded them higher marks than external examiners."
The Independent, Students’ Perceptions of Teacher Biases: Experimental Economics in Schools - Study
It would be interesting to see how the marks would be if the examiners had nothing to clue them as to which sex the student was.
I have heard elsewhere that female teachers mark boys down because they see them as defective girls. So if a paper is handed in with a female name at the top, a female teacher - especially a feminist teacher - will mark it up - and mark it down when they see a male name.
Feminist Quotes.
Robin Morgan, Ms. Magazine Editor:
- "I feel that ‘man-hating’ is an honorable and viable political act, that the oppressed have a right to class-hatred against the class that is oppressing them." —
-"I haven’t the faintest notion what possible revolutionary role white hetero- sexual men could fulfill,... I have great difficulty examining what men in general could possibly do about all this. ...possibly not exist? No, I really don’t mean that. Yes, I really do."

— Jilly Cooper, SCUM (Society For Cutting Up Men, started by Valerie Solanas)
"Since marriage constitutes slavery for women, it is clear that the women’s movement must concentrate on attacking this institution. Freedom for women cannot be won without the abolition of marriage." — Sheila Cronin, the leader of the feminist organization NOW
Andrea Dworkin

— Judith Levine, (explicating comment profiling prevailing misandry.)
"I feel what they feel: man-hating, that volatile admixture of pity, contempt, disgust, envy, alienation, fear, and rage at men. It is hatred not only for the anonymous man who makes sucking noises on the street, not only for the rapist or the judge who acquits him, but for what the Greeks called philo-aphilos, ‘hate in love,’ for the men women share their lives with—husbands, lovers, friends, fathers, brothers, sons, coworkers."
— Judith Levine, Authoress of My Enemy, My love
"There are no boundaries between affectionate sex and slavery in (the male) world.
Distinctions between pleasure and danger are academic; the dirty-laundry list of ‘sex acts’…includes rape, foot binding, fellatio, intercourse, auto eroticism, incest, anal intercourse, use and production of pornography, cunnilingus, sexual harassment, and murder."
[Brett Caton's note - i love the lumping together of anal sex and murder!]
