So feminists admit that these shelter bring in profit... that's a step forward. Let's cherish this brief moment of feminist honesty.
Curiously, "We human rights activists have always had the vision of abolishing male violence--not making a living off of it" -- so I take it they're all working voluntarily?

There is one principle that all bureaucracies follow --- self-perpetuation.
So, logically, the last thing the DV Industry wants to achieve is the end of family violence.
Likewise, the feminist's worst nightmare is to actually recognize that gender equality-of-opportunity already exists. (Indeed, boys are now the "minority class" in higher education; and men are the "discriminated class" in our courts.)
Richard Nixon may have been morally bankrupt, but he was ahead of his time when he advised ---"Follow the money!"

This article shows exactly how distrustful and conptemptuous female feminists are toward even male feminists.

True, but...,
Some men's activists are, conversely, suspicious of female M.R.A.s.
Jenk was getting pummeled by a few of us, in the "bring your husband to heel" thread. So it goes both ways, sometimes.
Thundercloud.
"Hoka hey!"

What's the difference between a feminist and a female M.R.A?
Answer:
The female M.R.A. will be happy to actually screw you, while she's screwing you.

Roy writes "If you thought feminists were in favor of Equal Employment Opportunity, apparently that doesn't extend to hiring a man to oversee a battered women's shelter. The battle over the next director of (Boston's) Transition House has got activists in the shelter system questioning whether embracing male leadership is the next logical step in the progress of the shelter movement or a violation of its mission to protect and treat women and children affected by domestic violence. Some feminists protest - "We human rights activists have always had the vision of abolishing male violence--not making a living off of it. It's such a regrettable irony that some men (and women) previously opposed to feminism are now doing just that by exploiting the initiatives of feminists and making a profit off of male violence against women."
