Question: What do you call academically educated men who think radical feminist writings are man-hating?
Answer: Illiterate.
I think I get what you are saying here, but there is such a large amount of stereotyping that it becomes rediculous. I am a feminist though not a radical one, and I agree with many of the sentiments but there is a difference between, "some men call women whores for having sex and that is unacceptable in modern society" and "Men call women who like sex whores" If you were only exagerating for effect I'm sorry but it did seem a little to damning in places I know many men who none of these answers would apply to.
ReplyDeleteTo Rotifer,
ReplyDeleteIt's called humor. Humor often works by making sociological observations, not observations about individuals.
And this is not a liberal blog. So there won't be any liberalism promoted or tolerated here. I'd address this further in response to your other comments.
Thanks for taking the time to read and respond.
