Jewish "Intactivists" In U.S. Stop Circumcising
Story here, HOORAY!! This represents real progress in getting this hopelessly outdated practice eliminated from our list of anti-male "socially acceptable" things. And, it's in an MSM publication, two reasons to cheer! Excerpt:
'But, like an increasing number of Jews in the United States, she has decided not to circumcise her son, rejecting the traditional notion that it is a Biblically prescribed sign of the Jewish relationship with God.
"I see circumcision as a blood ritual that I can let go of," said Anderson, who lives in Southern California.
Her position is in harmony with a wider decline in circumcision in the United States.
...
Among those talking about it is a gaggle of young, male, Jewish commentators. This year alone, in books, online and in magazines, authors Neal Pollack, Sam Apple, Jonathan Safran Foer and Shalom Auslander have all fretted about doing to their sons what was done to them. The title of Auslander's memoir, scheduled for publication in October, is "Foreskin's Lament."
Circumcision is even before the courts. In November, the Oregon Supreme Court will rule on whether a convert to Judaism can force his 12-year-old son to undergo the procedure.'

"The Hypocrisy that is feminism
October 2nd, 2007 by chicagoman
As you read this post a fellow MRA blogger MikeeUSA is being threatened to shut down his blog (you can find a link on my links panel). He is being threatened for disseminating hate speech against feminists. With the way most feminist bloggers speak of killing all men, eliminating the male population, chopping of penises, aborting fetuses, false claims of rape being good for the man, molesting children (ala feminist teacher style), wives battering their husbands, you would think that they wouldn’t have a problem with MikeeUSA expressing his anger with these groups.
These same feminists are all about free speech when they blog of murdering all males, yet when MRAs criticize them and show the blatant hypocrisy that these women’s organizations show, it isn’t ok. Suddenly it’s all about limiting free speech and silencing the opposition’s voice.
I have a problem with certain websites on the internet, you know what I do, I don’t visit those websites. It is that simple.
Feminists are the biggest hypocrites on the face of this earth, we’re on to your con, and we will be as loud and as boisterous as we feel we need to be."
Seems the blog is already
Seems the blog is already gone. Something to remember though is that no, most feminists actually dont routinely talk about killing all males. It's a comment made by some extremists. Unfortunately a lot of women's studies classes then use these extremist writings in their classes. I have no respect for modern feminism at all, but lumping all women into one group is the same tactic feminists use against men. Don't use their tactics, it just degrades us men, who should be able to rise above it.
Based on some excerpts of the writings, such as "Go to the local women's group office and liquidate it (kill the feminist women there). Wear a dark suit and drive an expensive car (these are more likely not to be suspect). Continue destroying the people who have helped to destroy countless of your fellow Men untill you are killed." seems to be rather over the top.
If one is upset about people saying men should be killed, then you shouldn't go stating the same about women. Inability to role-reverse gender issues is a major problem. "The Rantings of a Single Male" even suggested women as a whole are raised to be incapable of it.
While I'm not much of a fan of hate speech...
...it's definitely psychotic radical feminists who've had that market cornered for oh, about 40 years now. The SCUM manifesto is making a big comeback online, thanks to these hags. Still I've read some pretty stupid, vile and threatening stuff from MRA-wannabes too.
There are a few options to deal with or avoid run-ins with the thought police if your thoughts and ideas run to the more extreme, and you absolutely, positively have to express them in a way that doesn't qualify for protection as "art":
1) Host your blog outside the US, or in some distant, far-off land that doesn't give a rat's ass what the department of fatherland security or the twits over at NOW have to say about anything
2) Respond in kind - if you spot anything even slightly offensive or threatening on a feminist blog, demand a takedown immediately
3) Of course, there's the easiest approach of all: try not to generalize, and don't be an asshat and post inflammatory, threatening hate speech. MikeUSA never really grasped this stunningly simple concept back when he was trolling around here.
Hey, it's nice to have options, right? Allow me to suggest option 3 above the other two, BTW.
