Note that the female position is determined most of the time as being the 'reasonable' one. Note also the 'false compromise' of meeting in the middle on such a skewed playing field. Throw in the reticence (if not outright hostility to the very idea) to research these issues WITHOUT incorporating a Feminist worldview.

Indeed, note the refusal of Feminists themselves to concede that it is possible to believe in equal rights without being a Feminist....

And top it all off with the Feminist 'inability' to realize that asking men to 'be reasonable' is best symbolized with one guy pounding the living shit out of another (by surprise), then when the guy gets up to retaliate the first guy says "Why can't we just be friends? Let's leave the past in the past, and start from here...OK?"

It might SOUND reasonable if you ignore literally everything that came before, AND you ignore current injustices as simply 'making up for the past'.

Problem is, it's not reasonable, it's not conciliatory, and it's NOT going to happen. Not if I have anything to say about it anyway...

I don't really see a need. You feel hard done by by a radical end of the feminists. You see them as the boogie-man and to blame for all your woes when really it's society and culture in general who listened to the radicals at all.

Much of the rest of what you said is mere postulation and highly subjective.

I really don't see what you hope to achieve? An eye for an eye? Collate a whole load of isolated incidences (looking only at one side) and stirring up irrational rage in yourself? What's the point? Two bulls horns meet and fight over something when they could actually achieve what the both want together. Yes there's an element of feminists who want to do that too and an element that don't for whom none of what you said above applies. Why be the smaller man? What do you hope to achieve if not "revenge" by standing alone on your soapbox with all the other radicals?

Well worded...gotta say. It's still not a bunch more than a collection of shaming language, but it's flowery.

You can try and excuse feminists, and feminism, all you want by trying to create a false distance between "radicals" and "mainstream"...you still can't show any, um, ACTUAL day to day difference in action. They can 'debate' all they like, but I don't see anyone trying to moderate the radicals...which means AT BEST "equalist feminists" are laughably ineffective, and therefore useless as allies.

The rest of your post is essentially you calling me immature, inept, or some other word that starts with "I", and therefore falls in quite nicely with what I like to call the "Typical Feminist Response".

Short on info, long on shame...

Edit: Oh yeah...what am I trying to achieve?...

Well, the destruction of feminism, the eradication of Political Correctness, the restoration of the legal concept "innocent until proven guilty" - even when you're male, equalizing human rights between women and men - including reproductive and parental rights, the destruction of the Family Court as we know it - simply allowing the public to see what goes on should be enough for that, repealing section 15:2 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms....

I figure that's a good start...
