"Animal" Comment Triggers Equality Debate in Sweden

Anonymous User writes "This article from Women'sEnews is innocently entitled "Animal Comment Triggers Equality Debate in Sweden," but it does not relate the viciousness of the statements made about men by Ireen von Wachenfeldt, a government official who is one of Sweden's best-known feminists. From the article:
"The Swedish TV reporter, Evin Rubar, asked von Wachenfeldt about the statement from the SCUM Manifesto: "To call a man an animal is to flatter him; he's a machine, a walking dildo."
"Is that your standpoint?" Rubar asked.
"Yes, it's my standpoint," the director said.
"That man is an animal?" the reporter said.
"Man is an animal," von Wachenfeldt said. "Don't you think so?""
