It is very good that professionals are speaking out against the system. But, all we have to do is study the history of Female oppression to see how long the system plans on drawing this out. I for one do not want to wait 100 years. I do not believe that I will be here then, and if things keep on going the way they are, niether will my Grandsons. The time for CHANGE is now! I do laud the letters that were written though, it took guts.

Excellent letters.
They were reasoned in tone and full of facts.
All the more reason the feminists will cry "sexism!!!"

As the psychology professor points on in the first letter, if Title IX and other supposed "anti-disctrimination" regulations were applied equally and we created Commissions on the Status of Men, or up here "Status of Men Canada" and men's studies programs to counter the volumes of feminist, androphobic ideology polluting our governments, universities and schools, the appalling treatment of men and boys in this culture of misandry would become instantly identifiable, and would demand immediate attention. Naturally the feminists and their "chivalrous" dupes in govenrment are going to drag their feet on any such initiatives. After all, they might result in, oh, I don't know, equality. Rather than adopting the hate-driven attitude of feminists, I don't want fewer rights for women, or rights for men at the cost of women: I want to see genuine legal equality, where both genders have the same legal rights and the same responsibilities and accountabilities, not special "privileges" and "perks" granted for nonsensical, ideological reasons.
Please tell me there isn't a human being left who thinks feminism and equality have the slightest thing to do with one another.

One of the main problems is that feminists want their cake and eat ours, too.

Good point. I've come to notice that feminism is about building female privilege, not equal rights and responsibilities among the sexes. Protecting women (especially from responsibility) and expanding female options (while reducing their obligations) seems to be the priority
of feminism in modern times. Male vulnerability and hardship don't seem to matter much unless women start to complain about their effect on women and children.
