"What about teh menz" applauds feministing for publishing a dishonest and disrespectful article about male victims of sexual harassment.

I don't have time to read full article at feministing at the moment, but the quotes at WATM don't seem that bad. Can anyone plese calmly explain what are the people here angry about? (And I mean this specific article, not WATM in general)

Edit: OK, I've read the problematic part. Still, one can hope that the article is not a token gesture, but a sign that they're starting to get it. Silly idealistic of me to think that, I know.

I don't know what you people are bitching about. The blog makes an excellent point about the double standard regarding sexual harrassment. Men are held accountable by the public for behavior that women get a pass on. To me, this is really the crux of the issue when it comes to men's rights.

Also "What about teh menz" is a great blog. I've been quite impressed with it.

we can accept that that blog is an absolute farce .

I do not find the Feministing article to be dishonest or disrespectful at all. I don't understand what you're trying to say.

Well...I was right. I said that they would be unable to call out feminism for its bigotry and they can't.

Take a look at the newest post. Mindbeam calls out feminism on its lie about helping everyone but when he gets to his critique of the MRM he says the MRM is wrong because MRAs place the blame for a lot of men's problems on feminism.

I feel this will be the running theme of all the contributors. They will speak about some issues men have and complain about the majority of feminists not wanting to help men but they will never admit that feminism is the root cause for many issues men face today.

I don't usually toot my own horn but...Toot Toot.

It's funny because feminists have become the very bigots they claim that all men are.

There was a great comment to the Feministing article.

I agree what about teh menz should have also called out Feministing the way the comment I linked above did for their wholly unnecessary dismissive victimhood one-up-manship.

(Edit: After reading both articles and the comments, I get more why people are upset at what about teh menz.)

With the feminist fixation on everything rape, it would seem that quite a few of these ladies have rape fantasies.
