| 1 | Wheaton has finally gone off the deep endWell, Ti-Grace Atkinson did so in 1969. It is worth noting that Betty Friedan, who elected Atkinson into her position at NOW, spoke out against this statement. Solanas herself was not a member of this group either. I'd also like to note that I said vast majority and good deal of its interest. I'm not denying that Feminism does have its radical extreme. The famous quote that she thought of Feminism as "a civil disobedience luncheon club" pretty much captures Solanas feelings on the general moveme… | /r/MensRights | 28/05/14 04:50 PM |
| 1 | Why am I being compared to a mentally ill, narcissistic, racist, misogynist, sociopathic serial killer?I'm not here to argue against Feminism or against the Men's Rights Movement, I have just seen the name of Solanas come up a lot and I want to discuss some false truths that have been spread about her. I think Solanas and Radfem Hub are probably the extreme fringe of Radical Feminism. They are largely rejected by the modern movement and shouldn't be taken as reflective of it as a whole. They do state as such, as at least in the actions of Solanas herself, it is likely that she did not see it as a… | /r/MensRights | 28/05/14 04:40 PM |
| 1 | Wheaton has finally gone off the deep endI agree with the part about Rodger. He has been disapproved of by both the Men's Rights Movement and Feminism. However, you are spreading a false narrative about Solanas. The vast majority of feminists did not take her book seriously and a good deal of its interest is, at least in my opinion, a result of its novelty as an extreme fringe of a movement. I think that's partly evident in the publishers who have picked it up. None are seriously feminist presses. | /r/MensRights | 28/05/14 04:29 PM |
| 2 | Why am I being compared to a mentally ill, narcissistic, racist, misogynist, sociopathic serial killer?But most didn't. The "Society For Cutting Up Men" consisted of just Solanas and at the time of writing she wasn't attached to any major feminist groups. After the shooting it did become an oddity and I agree that this was quite sexist - if it were a woman who was shot by a man, it would not have been held the same regard as a satirical piece of writing. That said, there is no evidence that it has inspired any violence against men since its publication almost fifty years ago, and very few took it… | /r/MensRights | 28/05/14 03:54 PM |
| -1 | Wheaton has finally gone off the deep endYou mean the shooting that happened almost fifty years ago in a completely different societal climate - acted out by a member of a feminist organisation started by and consisting of JUST HERSELF - who was diagnosed as being mentally ill and spent most of her life in treatment - that led off of a personal dispute with Warhol who had lost a manuscript that she had spent months writing? I can see the fear that there will be more of them. Solanas was definitely not a one off case and is most likely … | /r/MensRights | 28/05/14 03:44 PM |
