Anxious Feminist Appropriation of male abuse and Men's Rights.

On one hand I'm glad a lot of women seem to be starting to understand and sympathize with men's rights issues. But on the other it's totally perplexing that this is what they focus on. I mean, out of all the very serious issues affecting men in modern society you focus on some guido getting punched by his girlfriend in some shitty reality TV show? Really?

Now don't get me wrong, anything that sheds some light on the problem of female-on-male DV is fine by me (the Teen Mom incident did better with this). It just seems so insincere though when the most you get out of it is a blog post pretty much always concluding that "it's wrong to hit anyone, mkay?" and then they turn right back to parroting the typical buzzwords and phrases about 'male privilege', 'rape culture', and other such nonsense, ultimately undermining any common ground we might have started to find between men's and women's rights activists.

JWOWW is now a positive role model in my book.

This quote tells you all you need to know about the author.

She is an idiot.

It's like they're actually throwing a token few nods at that whole equality thing they've talked about for so long but done nothing about, now that they see a serious threat to their hegemony.

Not fooling me though, femifisting. Not after but a couple months ago insisting that men should be guilty until proven innocent by default when accused of rape.
