I myself have Asperger's Syndrome, and take exception to this mischaracterization of males like myself. I had thought that perhaps one saving grace of "political correctness" was that my AS would at least be viewed sympathetically by the PC crowd. I suppose that's my lack of intuition for you.
From what I can tell, however, radfem activities are in themselves sociopathic. From plays like the Vagina Monologues (with the lesbian "Coochie Snorcher" segment) and C**tFest, to the wanton destruction of families and heterosexual relationships, to the calls for mass castration or exterminiation of the male species, this ideology seems truly twisted and evil.
It seems that radfems have less compassion and empathy towards AS males than severe autistics are reupted to have towards other people. I ask you, which is worse?

You're a man, so you can expect nothing from the PC crowd but hatred and vilification. Don't blame yourself.
Don't get mad. Get organised.

You know, it just dawned on me.
I think feminists believe that women are some kind of magical mythilogical beings, or something. You know, like a unicorn or a leprachaun, or something.

I also have Asperger's. It's good to find more people like myself here who have AS. Yes, (lol) I do think radical feminists are much worse for society as a whole than autistics. At least Autistics don't destroy relationships between men and women on a grand scale like the radfems are doing. :)

I was looking over the excellent article on backlash.com, and noticed that the anti-science book by Sandra Harding equating Newton's Principia with rape was published by...
Cornell University Press!
So, it can't come as a surprise that Anna Weiss is a product of Cornell. And I suppose Harding's book is also tongue-in-cheek.

You just have to savour the delicious irony of a person furiously cranking out anti-technology screeds on a Pentium 4 and e-mailing the proofs to the publisher before jetting off on a book signing. Websters, your definitions for stupidity and hypocracy are ready.

Nice to see you, Steve. I wondered what had happened as I hadn't heard from you in awhile.

"The similarity in viewpoint is astonishing. Both these groups of women, either consciously or unconsciously, seek to promote the view that the logical and rational is inferior to the personal narrative method of enquiry, and that feelings share equal validity with critical thinking."
In books by Hoff-Sommers and Patai (Who Stole Feminism/Professing Feminisim), they too point out that radical/gender feminists view "women's way of knowing/thinking" as superior to logic and critical thinking. There has been much work in universities and colleges to reform the curriculum to follow this thinking. I simply call it "dumbing down the educational process." With "Women's ways of knowing" we should soon be able to get the square corners back on wheels and make them work as well as round ones.
The disrespect that assinine radical/feminist propaganda is showing towards A.S. and people who struggle with it is just plain sick. It reminds me of the attitude that the Nazis took just before WWII, towards people with any kind of infirmity or illness. Such cold hearted inhumanity is barbaric. I never cease to be impressed by the cruelty that characterizes the hate movement known as radical/gender feminism.

I'd like to see a book or paper titled The Psycopathology of Radical Feminism.
Interestingly, Hans Asperger published his findings in 1944 in Austria during WWII. I believe that he was concerned that the Nazis would include his patients in their extermination efforts if these patients were not protected. Due to the ties between Austria and Germany at the time, Asperger's work went largely unnoticed in Europe and the United States for the next 30 years.

Okay, I'll admit to being rather ignorant here.
What is "Aspeger syndrom"?

Don't worry, Thundercloud. A lot of people haven't heard of Asperger's Syndrome as it has only been recognized for about 10 years. I didn't even know what it was until 6 years ago.
Asperger's Syndrome (to be brief) is a mild variation of autism. A person with this syndrome can generally function in society, although they can be impaired in their social functioning. Having a narrow field of interests and restrictive routines are also hallmarks of AS.
Here is a more detailed description:

Dude, surround the link with an HTML tag.
Just replace the parentheses with the corresponding "less than" and "greater than" brackets in the following:
Click (a href="http://www.udel.edu/bkirby/asperger/aswhatis it.html")here(/a) for the definition.
which will appear as:

TLE must stand for The Learning Experience :)
I'll print out what you wrote so that I don't forget it. Then I'll have even more patriarchal technological advantages with which to oppress women. HTML is a great tool for doing just that.

I got it. Thank you, M.I..
Now I understand.
What I DON'T understand is how the feminists draw a parallel to Asperger syndrome and ANY kind of "deviancy"...,
That's just stupid.
But then feminists aren't exactly known for being intellegent or sensible, are they?
They, obviously, are just trying to use this, amoung MANY other things, to criminalize maleness. Even if they have to attack a mental "dis-order", to do it.
(One that I, myself, may have.)
I usually am careful at whom I throw the word "evil" at, but I think, in the case of feminists they have easily won that title.
And this proves it.

Ever since I found out I had Aspergers Syndrome, I knew it would be used against me...

Well, sometimes that's the case, and sometimes people are more understanding. The trouble is, it's hard to tell how someone will respond before you tell them.
By the way, if you'd like to send me an email, my email address is mens_issues@att.net
