"How to spot a misogynist"Article here. Excerpt: 'If you're not trained in the spotting of smug, self-satisfied misogynists, you might not know the general thrust of their shtick. Luckily for you, I've become somewhat of an expert in the field since they all started following me on Twitter. So to help novices and outsiders, I've taken the following five popular misogynist arguments and parsed them into some kind of legible (if not logical) format for your benefit. 'If feminists really cared about equality, they'd be addressing all the inequality that faces men. Like, why do feminists only care about breast cancer and not prostate cancer? Why aren't feminists advocating for single dads? Why won't women sleep with me when I'm a really nice guy and I've made a particular effort to be nice to them, particularly? Until feminism can answer that, I'm afraid I don't really see it as being legitimate." This is the last bastion of the misogynist's argument - their self-fancying checkmate, if you will. What these people are basically saying is that, despite the overwhelming evidence of entrenched sexual, physical and ideological oppression of women, the only way feminism can really be fair is if it first identifies and solves all of the ways in which the patriarchy also oppresses men.'

"the only way feminism can
"the only way feminism can really be fair is if it first identifies and solves all of the ways in which the patriarchy also oppresses men."
I think that is exactly what fairness is all about--treating both parties equally and by the same rules. Of course, feminists don't want to do that--or even listen to men's complaints of unfair treatment. Feminists believes "equality" means equality for women only. Which, of course, is inherently unequal and unfair. In other words, it's all about special treatment for women, which the feminists call "equality." George Orwell would be proud.
