Feminists creating 'female-only' spaces.

Okay ladies, if xx or xy gender-only clubs/spaces are acceptable then why the bitching and moaning about Augusta National golf club? Hmm....?

Solveig February 7, 2011 at 5:51 pm Many thanks for a great post, as usual, my regular dosage of sense in the world. I hate those dudes. It’s not so much that they can’t fuckin’ stop trying to boss women around and feel superior, but much more that they can’t fuckin’ stop playing the GAME.

The game of ?quien es mas macho? that they continuously carry on as they frantically, desperately, search for their masculinity and self-worth. Which they can only “win” by smashing someone else down, being “mas macho,” a conquerer-asshole.

Then they come waltzing into a space like this, which is openly pissed off at men for a thousand great reasons, and try to play the game with ya’ll…and y’all won’t play because you know how stupid the game is in the first place.

They think they’re so clever and yet they are so lacking in the most basic self-awareness. So incredibly clueless, inane, and common.

This is a great space of freedom on the internet. A haven of free-thinkers. People who get it. Why should you let Those Who Don’t Get It (TWDGIs)—and who inadvertently insult every woman reader-participant in this feminist venue, conversation, community of ranters and blamers?

Dude-free. What a thought. How incredibly nice that would be for a change—

I just survived the Superbowl with my partner’s patriarchal (Syrian-American Catholics) family, which is super hierarchical, yet all of its members fancy themselves enlightened, feminist. In short, they’re liberals.

Very nice except when they’re telling you to shut up, literally, if you call Ben Roethlisberger a rapist and a lout, and who would freak out totally if I started to describe the masculinist politics of the game, the pageantry, the rituals (i.e. the passing of the shiny, silver, penis trophy from one hand to another, and the touching of the sacred object, the icon of masculinity, American-style, the fucking Superbowl fetish that is shaped like a phallus.

I had to leave at halftime and go over to my girlfriends’ party to be able to say what I wanted to say, to be able to speak as myself. And then to have to sit through that incredibly dull and perverse mass-delusion and insanity that convinces Americans that the GAME is true, permanent, the state of nature. When it is so obviously none of those things. What the fuck are we doing, one of them said to me during the party. Why are we watching this disgusting display of symbolic violence? Well, she didn’t say it quite that way—she said something like, “so much manly crap.” And then she said, “It’s so depressing.” Yeah.

Sometimes it is so exhausting to live here as an intelligent being. I’ve blamed the patriarchy all my life, and the blaming never ends. It is very lonely, sometimes. Most times. I’m so glad that y’all women are here.

I always found it kind of funny how so many women and feminists not only fail to realize how misandric this type of male discrimination/exclusion(i.e. "premeditated" female-only spaces) actually is but also often feel proud of it. Women really seem to be given a 'carte blanche' when it comes to perpetuating sexism or for their justifications in perpetuating that sexism; and feminists always seem to be there to defend or encourage that type of privileged bigotry.

My only problem with this is that whenever men create "men only spaces," feminists like Twisty get all bent out of shape and barge into them calling misogyny and discrimination.

But we are supposed to accept when they create "women only spaces," and just accept it as right and correct.

Fucking double standards; they piss me off every time!

The hypocrisy of feminism becomes obvious when you see how they reject transgendered people having the same rights as women.

I don't object to female only spaces per se. I think we need to make some male-only spaces though. Spaces where we can start a pro-male political movement to fight back against feminism.

Women like to have "female-only" spaces so they can bitch about how bad they have it and silence any one who has proof of the opposite. They have an opinion and by god the whole world's gonna agree with them or else. Yes I'm generalizing, because it's easier to say "women" with the implication that some may not fit the description. If this doesn't apply to you then no need to be offended.
