Hooray for equality!

You may want to edit that arrow a bit, because right at the point of the arrow where it says "Equality!", it's pointing over "forced prostitution". =P

But yeah, that's awesome that someone edited the Wikipedia page and put in links to other pages like androcide. One of the things I admire about Wikipedia is that anyone can edit the pages, but the editors of Wikipedia make sure to edit any false information added to pages, so the risk of allowing anyone to edit the info drops down a bit while allowing a free transfer of information.

Also WTF at some of the violence against women pages. I don't condone violence against women, but "acid burning", "breast ironing"? Who the hell even thinks of doing things like that to anyone?!

I'm curious as to why there's no 'genital mutilation' under violence against men.

SCOTT_MESCUDI · 2013-04-25T22:43:39+00:00

Why is "violence against women" higher up than "violence against men"?!

…Just kidding.

END VIOLENCE AGAINST PEOPLE!

guys, it's starting to work, we are having an effect. this makes me very happy.

Feminists have taken over Wikipedia, in case you hadn't got the memo. Part of their never ending scheme to rewrite history.

While a step in the right direction there is still the problem that many of the "violence against women" things listed affect men too yet those wikipedia pages usually only make minor lip service to men being victims.

Yeah, that'll last all of about a week once the radfems catch wind of this.

MechPlasma · 2013-04-25T22:37:52+00:00

Yeah, I noticed that recently too when searching for SAFE. Good show!

(Although I should point out, the subcategories they have for Violence Against Men... aren't quite right. Not professional enough, I mean. Probably because there's not enough subcategories yet. Remember, if you have anything you think should be put there, Wikipedia is editable by anyone!)

what the hell is 'boys are stupid, throw rocks at them'

So much negativity in the comments for something positive.

I wish we could just make positive suggestions for improvements, rather than turning this into a game of "female verses male" for what affects who and who has what worse.

Very disappointing. :\

But, glad to see the addition to the page!

I never get upset when I see someone point out violence toward women with a few examples. Why? Because all the rest of the violence is toward men. Violence toward women is the exception. Violence toward men is the rule. Most radfems won't admit this fact, but it is true. The primary victims of violence on earth are men. Always have been, always will be. Women can have their little pity party if they want.

Wikipedia shouldn't succumb to ideology, but I guess it is inevitable.

The False accusation of rape Wikipedia page needs some major changes if it wants to even remotely look scientific.

brohner · 2013-04-26T04:59:43+00:00

we did it!

iMADEthis2post · 2013-04-26T06:09:08+00:00

Yeah apparently there is a thing where feminists fuck around with wiki edits to suit their own political agenda, I believe examples were posted here some time back.

BTW did anyone look at the issues in both the mens and womens sections, how are things like sexual violence against prostitutes or prison rape classified as domestic abuse? Some of them seem a little stretched. Not that I'm belittling them, they just seem outside of the scope of things or are these just broadly related matters?

You know anyone can edit it, right?
