Misandrist Essay at its Worst
Submitted by Matt on Thu, 2007-07-19 16:33
Just look at this, will you.... good heavens, the man is practically ready to implode with self-hatred! Excerpt:
'Use of science and technology proceeds along pathways chosen by man, detached from feminine sensibilities. Harmony eludes a male-dominated world that does not empower women. Women do climb the corporate ladder — we bestow superficial status on them — but behind this spurious camouflage, crimes against women proliferate.
Today, mankind attempts to explore galaxies and contemplates travel at the speed of light, while our women are still not safe on the streets, and many, not even at home. How is it possible to use terms such as "civilized" and "evolved" for our species? All our good intentions seem a lie. The truth? One-half of us are hurt by the other.
Our attitudes toward nature are synonymous with our attitudes toward women. All meaningful contact between the earth and us is broken. We do not understand the earth in terms of what she offers us or what she requires of us — and inevitably people destroy that which they do not understand.'

"Worldwide, one in five women will be a victim of rape or attempted rape in her lifetime, reports the World Health Organization."
That's all I needed to read to realize that this honorary woman is talking out of his/her ass.
I must say the forums are pretty much in our favor on this one. Here's my favorite quote:
Speaking of which, why is it only violence against women that makes us uncivilized? More men are victims of crime than women. Why can't it just be violence against PEOPLE that we work to stop?
Indeed.
I love how this essay is
I love how this essay is featured in the Democrat and Chronicle.
In the first few sentences, the essayist uses several "statistics" about women being domestically abused and raped, and look at his sources: the UN, UNICEF, World Health Organization (funded by the UN), International Women's Tribune Centre. Even the US Justice Department is a questionable source on this topic because God only knows it must be infiltrated by feminist, misandric women, since it's a federal institution.
I know others have said it's best to avoid bringing politics into MRA discussion, but it's too obvious in this essay. All of the reports this guy relies on to make the claims that women are victimized to these enormous proportions are known to be liberally biased, and it's no coincidence that feminism has always allied itself with political liberalism. I don't dispute the fact that women around the world do face rape and DV, but hell, so do men. I just can't trust the numbers at all because they're all provided by organizations who have a feminist bias against men and for women.
"More than 60 million women are "missing" from the world as a result of sex-selective abortions and female infanticide, according to a U.N. study on the status of women."
You've got to be shitting me. Are they whining about aborted female babies? Isn't this the same party that always bitches along with NOW and the Democrats about a woman's "reproductive rights" and how the big, bad, pro-life consevatives support the "oppression" of women? Let's see -- they'll bitch about restrictions on abortion and then, when the UN pulls some random statistic out of its ass about how 60 million females are "missing," in large part due to abortion, they'll bitch about that too. Who ultimately makes that decision? Whose body, as the pro-choice camp are so adamant to remind, is it which carries these infants? Oh, yeah. Woman's.
But of course -- it can't be their fault! No! It's the patriarchy's fault! If women weren't so hated, more babies would live! If men hurt women, it's the men's fault. If women hurt women, it's still the men's fault.
"The truth? One-half of us are hurt by the other."
Wow.
This guy may be manic, or have grandiose thinking
Some of his opinions sounds like he is from the "jackass" school of philosophy. Also the way they are worded, well..he sounds like he was having some sort of "episode" when he wrote them down. Hopefully just an episode.

Democrat and wrong..
Misandry does rear it's ugly head again from a member of our own sex none the less.
Surprisingly his ranting comes straight out of "women's studies", straight from the Gospel according to feminism.
This comment sums it up nicely...
"The usual lies and the usual exaggerations...
This man can't seem to hate himself enough, can he?
Apparently he hasn't done his homework of domestic violence or other criminal acts. If so, he would know that DV occurs as often to men as it does to women, men are more likely to be killed by an intimate partner than women are, and DV rates among gays and lesbians are higher than among straights, so it isn't all men-on-women violence.
DV and other violent crimes indeed hold back the progress of civilization. So does overgeneralizing and self-loathing. I hope the author gets some real information soon.

He will never get it because....
....feminism is a religion. They believe in wage gap myths, a non-existent all powerful goddess that masquerades as several different godesses, they believe emotion trumps logic, they believe the United States is a patriarchy, they believe women conceive babies by themselves(and attempt to make this a reality by manipulating a natural process), they believe, they believe, they believe. Reality and facts are the ever present enemy of feminist women and men.
It's like a group of religious zealots with pussies(and those who hate themselves enough that they wish they had a pussy).
