Yes, let's make sure anything you mess up on becomes a battlefield for the gender war.

Can't wait to hear how my lack of motivation to clean the dishes right this second is an example of patriarchy.

I don't know, my girlfriends a feminist. Definitely rocky here and there, took a while for her to understand I'm a person with feelings. That and having to listen to I didn't do the dishes is because I subconsciously think it's a woman's job or something. She's harmless though.

I am grateful for the fact that sites like AVFM exist, but AVFM really seems to have been favouring a crass approach to writing lately. The "wipe your ass with poison ivy" comment was particularly distasteful, and it certainly set the tone for the article later on.

The fact is that in social settings, almost all women, feminist or otherwise continue to expect financial gallantry from men, which is identical to prostitution, simply less honest.

Reminds me of the time Richard Feynman called a woman "worse than a whore" because she didn't have sex with him for a sandwich. That is, a whore is a woman who has sex for money. This one didn't even give him that.

You know, I'd actually date a feminist (were I single) if they were anything like their PR-bots claim to be. For gender equality, and for freedom from traditional roles for both sexes, etc. I am a pretty non-traditional man and so is my sexuality. And I actually like all those qualities in women that the "6 reasons" article mentions.

But any non-gullible man knows its all smoke-and-mirrors. It is all just bait to lead you into the butcher's trap of the real feminism where you are an irredeemable monstrous rapist and deserve to be de-humanized and made a second-class citizen because you are male.

It would be cool if feminists were actually dominatrixes and were into being kinky with thigh high rubber boots and all of that. But for those of you who're into your S&M terminology the trouble with many young women is they love to Top from the Bottom.
