you know it's getting bad on campuses when traditional feminists like Christina Hoff Sommers go after them in lectures this hard.

also learned a new feminist term - "micro-aggressions"

Why do you care? They have the same amount of pull on American politics and culture as groups like PETA

So many people post stuff about it and I didn't really know what was going on. Just educating myself about it.

Which is why the President can get up on national TV and talk about a bullshite wage gap that doesn't exist without being called on it in the pussified mainstream media.

Because they are not about equal pay, equal work and the like any more. Its been hijacked by those who are extremists when it comes to sexual politics.

I love it. They claim at the same time that women can and SHOULD be drafted into the military if men are and placed into combat roles. They leave out the part about rape if they are captured.

BUT they then claim that they can't handle the mention of Ovid in a class room because they are so fragile.

They are demanding protection from Free Speech and Academic Inquiry. While at the center of Free Speech and Academic Inquiry. frick them sideways. And I mean that in a non-patriarchal way that honors womyn.

My theory is that they exist to make the regular shrill bitches look normal, so we see their demands as being reasonable.

So basically, Hillary 2016.

It's his choice to care about things he choose to care about. Don't know why the hostile response. Maybe he triggered something deep inside you that you are sensitive about.

3rd wave feminism is interesting. Now you have groups like MGTOW and MRA (mens rights groups) - whose membership is exploding AND you have a lot of women (non-feminists) joining up with mens' rights groups and making videos. And they're all attacking the 3rd wavers. MGTOW is basically a men's group that is saying "f'k it, don't get married, don't even get involved with a woman - not worth it anymore".

I just finished watching the video. While she does raise some interesting, and valid points, Her premise is somewhat flawed.

Her deep seated dislike of men is an anomaly, percentile-wise. While most feminists have been tempered by flawed personal interaction with men, hers was obviously formed by a lack of any interpersonal intergender experiences. This may have been caused by her abundance of "Visage de beurre"

Just kidding. I only watched about 4 seconds of it.

My first exposure to a feminist was a neighbor taking a snapshot of me and my roommate at a party. The snapshot ended up on a wall with my name as a male supporter of abortion (she didn't know my politics and didn't bother to seek my permission). I'm not a political animal but that shite pissed me off.

Did she take the photo before, after or during your exposure?

I don't think anybody has ever liked them. They're sort of the equivalent to liberal Jews. Always act like the victim when they're actually more privileged than most.

I have zero respect for these self-acclaimed "victims: and their BS. They make up terms like micro-aggressions,triggers, man-spread, and tons of other crap to justify their imagined victim-hood and their special snowflake status.

I say we stick them on an island, let them create their own society and give them no access to sperm. Lets see how long their society would survive without donated sperm.

They are strange. Never seen anything like third wave feminists in my life. A lot of the really bizarre stuff seems to be happening at colleges on west coast, Toronto and UK.

Calling Christina Hoff Sommers a "traditional feminist" is ridiculous. She works for Prager University and the American Enterprise Institute for God's sake. Those organizations are right wing propaganda machines that make Fox News look like bleeding heart liberals.
