Working On Women Is A Start (Now - About The "Men")


Gee, Crack, why do you attack those fine feminists, Ann and Meade Althouse, so often? Oh, I don't know - let a review of Dr. Helen Smith's Men On StrikeGlenn Reynolds' wife's book, explain it:
How did we get to this point? Among other causes, Smith points to a feminist movement that went from fighting for equality for women to advocating laws to privilege women at men’s expense. She characterizes men who collude in perpetuating this system as “White Knights” who instinctively support policies purporting to protect the “weaker sex,” and as “Uncle Tims” — her play on the iconic “Uncle Tom” character — who for their own gain embrace the noxious notion that men are inherently flawed and need to be constrained.

They do it "for their own gain" - that's our Meade! (He ain't known in Althouse circles as a "grifter" for nothing,...) But no mention of the unrelenting gay shit? Or the hypocrite men, like Reynolds, who attack feminism while giving feminists a platform?


We're definitely not getting comprehensive yet,...

  1. Well, ol' Camille weighed in:

    I don't agree with her on many things, and think sometimes she's way over the top (but that's her persona, her maschera, so be it), but whatever else, I'll give her this: she's usually got balls, more balls than many. That I can respect.
    And on a couple of these matters, she's pretty damn on target -- Capo Hillary...love it!
    Hey, GOP...this is how you take Hillary and Co. down a peg or two...take notes!

  2. Feminism is the radical notion that men are people

  3. It is? Could've fooled me...what was that saying? Like a fish needs a bicycle? Yeah, that sounds like the ladies were really talking about men as people there.

  4. But that has been one of the guiding memes of the feminist movement since the late 50s/early 60s at least.
    So, who are the "ladies" in the feminist movement? And if they are out there, why are they so quiet?

  5. "So, who are the "ladies" in the feminist movement?"

    The first Second Lady of the United States and second First Lady of the United States, Abigail Adams.

    Ever heard of her?

  6. Oh please...if you have to stretch that far you don't have an argument and are engaging in silliness.

  7. But anger, envy, and bitterness notwithstanding, this very blog is 99.9% silly -- including every single one of your solipsistic comments.

    I offer Abigail and John Adams as American models of true feminism - the notion that all men (and women) are endowed equally by their Creator - Nature's God - with the rights to life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness (in the form of owning private property).

    Calling that silly makes you yourself look silly.

  8. I consider it pretty freaking silly that somebody would have to go back to John and Abigail Adams in order to find ladylike role models (or role models in general) for a postmodern movement.

    And I'm solipsistic because I can be -- hell, what other choice do I have really? Your disingenuous attempts at rhetorical mastery by bringin' in 18th century figures to a modern era gun fight are sort of forcing my solipsistic hand as it were (see, I can use dem big words tooo -- I larn'd em in skewl an such...though granted I am not of the high society that you appear to favor...which probably makes me quite guache in a bien peasant, shut up and get back to swilling the pigs you bloody little clog wearer kind of way, huh?).
    Hence, perhaps, my solipsism...my tendency to ramble on and on to myself (then again, how do you know I'm not sharing your arguments with the piggies? by the way, the pigs concur: Adams? Really? haha, oink!).
