Female Group Ejected From Comic Expo For Criticizing Feminism
Story here. Excerpt:
'The claims of harassment came following a panel discussion, “Women Into Comics,” which took place on Thursday night. During the panel Q&A, HBB [link added] founding member Alison Tieman answered a question from the floor in which she identified herself as an MRA and criticized feminism. “The reason why I don’t like feminism is because you promote this idea that women are defined by being victims. If you look at the content of all of your issues men also face considerable problems... and they need to be brought into the story and not just for men’s sake, but also for the sake of challenging the notion that women are defined as victims.”
On Friday morning, as HBB were setting up its booth, it was approached by security and asked to leave the venue. “When we went in this morning, security came over straight away and told us we had to shut down,” said HBB member Hannah Wallen.

HBB’s expulsion from the event created a firestorm of criticism on social media with many accusing CalEx of censorship.'
