It’s basically the same excuse they give for making feminist folk heroes out of Aillen Wuornos, Lorena Bobbitt and Donna Hylton. It’s certainly not because feminism is a detestable hate group that gets held to a nonexistent standard of accountability that chose to celebrate these women because they (feminists) hate men and these women committed grievous acts of violence against men, up to and including torturing a man for pay . . . no, don’t be silly. It’s all about empowering victims. These brave women fought back against a tyrannical patriarchy that systematically abused them. They’re not murderers and knife-wielding maniacs, they’re freedom fighters. Funny how that same standard of zero accountability isn’t afforded to all of the male murderers and serial killers whom were abused as children??? Just once I’d like to see one of these apologists for female violence argue that Henry Lee Lucas, John Wayne Gacy or Peter Kurten were just misunderstood victims lashing out at a society that had wronged them and that we really should treat them as heroes.
