Feminists Want Harvard’s All-Male Clubs Punished—But Not All-Women’s Clubs

'With campus feminists, you simply can’t win.

Last week, Harvard announced that they were cracking down on “privilege” within their student community by banning members of single-gender organizations from holding school leadership positions.

But when Harvard announced its new policy, it stressed that the sanctions applied to both male and female single-gender organizations equally, since both male and female single-gender organizations thrived on their “privilege.”

Harvard’s resident feminists claim that all-female organizations, while just as gender-biased, are beneficial to the school’s community, whereas all-male organizations are merely breeding grounds for the present and future perpetrators of sexual crime.

On Monday, they demonstrated, accusing Harvard of, among other things, perpetuating the marginalization of female voices. “My women’s organization has been more than a social organization,” one student told the Boston Globe. “It has been a mental health respite, a place to discuss sexual assaults . . . where I became a feminist, and where I refound my voice.”'

I find this an odd claim because of feminists' insistence that everyone agree with them on everything. They do not tolerate dissent. They insist upon conformity with their way of thinking. We know what happens to people who disagree--they get called the "M-word," which is not much different from the "N-word."

Feminists have no tolerance for individual opinions, so it's odd to say feminism would help a woman "find her voice."

I don't care if women want single-sex clubs--just as long as men are granted the same right. But this case demonstrates how women/feminists want rights for themselves that they want to deny to men.

This is SOP for feminists and has been for decades... many decades, starting in the 19th century.

Remember: you only have rights if you're the right gender/sex/whatever and you have the right ideas/say the right things.

That's why they're called rights. They're only for the right people. >)
