So what do you care?

You're six feet tall and can carry an eighty pount backpack several miles.

Hell, you're practically a grunt.

It'll take a lot more than some hurtful criticism of the fairer sex to get your mascara running!

Evidence?

That is freaking hilarious!

Really? Can you show us some manifesto or article or somewhere that the Basic Tenets of Feminism state that feminists "think men and women are exactly the same?"

Because unless you can, I'm just going to assume you don't know what you are talking about but instead just pull baseless garbage out of your butt and post it as fact...

It is scary.

I think there's a fundamental terror that misogynist men have, a lack of self-esteem, a suspicion that they're not really men and might be found out, a lack of emotional and mental strength, a fear that they lack something that other men have.

Men that are not afraid of women, are not afraid that they'll be left behind by women, that women will destroy them, that women need to be controlled, their activities curtailed, and their ideas dismissed. Men that are afraid of women feel women are their enemy. Very, very sad.

I ADORE men who are so incredibly confident that they don't have to feel afraid of women!

And by the way, calling out feminists on inconsistencies is not the same as misoginy. I'll admit some of my posts have been harsh on women, but this isn't one of them. To disagree with a feminist hardly makes one a woman-hater.

It does when the inconsistent one-sided man-hating positions of feminists cannot be defended with logic.

Feminism, as it exists in America today, is redistributive liberalism by another name.

They'll claim with their last dying breath that they want equal opportunity, but that's bull ****!

What they want is superior rights, special treatment and transfer payments when that doesn't get them what they want.

Their criteria for measuring opportunities afforded them and the level of fairness they have been treated with is always the final outcome as measured by their own skewed and dishonest standard.

Care to explain to everyone what you mean EXACTLY by "redistributive liberalism" is? Please provide 2 real-life examples, if you would be so kind.

More women graduate college than men.
More women obtain graduate degrees than men.
Very soon, there will be more women MDs than men.

Last time I checked, most sports bars were filled with men complaining about their lot in life. Maybe it's time for some men to stop idolizing other men and go back to school and increase the liklihood they can qualify for and maintain better paying jobs and support their families.

Take a walk over to the relationship folder.
We know how to read what people write. We also have memories and know how to use the search feature.

I'm not afraid of those people, but highly skeptical of them.
