His name is Kyle Payne, he is still in his twenties I believe, and a few years ago he worked at a college and secretly videotaped and molested a young woman who was unconscious in a dorm where HE was the person in charge of making sure she and other residents were safe. <br /><br />He has disappeared, refusing to be accountable to people around him who were feminist or profeminist.Julian Realhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02933612851144914687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6744114065733119575.post-50885981677774586402012-01-13T00:11:56.817-05:002012-01-13T00:11:56.817-05:00Those who embrace WHM values and simultaneously cl...Those who embrace WHM values and simultaneously claim to be feminist or pro-feminists probably do so for various reasons.<br /><br />Some who claim to be feminist / pro-feminist clearly do not understand what these terms really mean. Others are in it for selfish reasons and are operating in accordance with their own agenda with absolutely no consideration for others. <br />Then some are just so damn arrogant that despite referring to themselves as feminists / pro feminists their arrogance prevents them from truly achieving this.<br /><br />Just because someone claims to be a feminist or pro feminists and who at times may say or do the right things does not imply that they are the real deal.<br /><br />One must always be on the look-out for fakes.Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01991452705504076417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6744114065733119575.post-11559180235806573212012-01-10T13:37:02.640-05:002012-01-10T13:37:02.640-05:00Hi Christina,

It is less clear to me why anyone would insist on calling such practices "radical" or "pro-feminist".Julian Realhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02933612851144914687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6744114065733119575.post-82199714388491851672012-01-10T02:03:04.347-05:002012-01-10T02:03:04.347-05:00It is indeed very regrettable that bulling and bla...It is indeed very regrettable that bulling and blatant aggression have become a way-of-life and that to turn this around in order to reach a place where we have mutual respect for each other irrespective of how much we may disagree with the others take on life, seems to be above our reach. <br /><br />But is this really such a big surprise? WHM have been very consistent in their continual bulling and aggression. It’s the WHM way.<br />Many people who have been victims of this cruelty often feel that the only way to respond is in the same way by repaying cruelty with cruelty.<br /><br />Those who aspire to be like the WHM see these types of WHM bulling tactics as successful and reaching the level of the WHM must be achieved at all costs. Therefore sacrificing ones humanity to trample on others does not seem to be a very high price to pay for them.<br /><br />In the Christian Bible Jesus taught us to turn the other check, this is a very misunderstood quote as many think it means that Christians must be doormats and just let others bully them with out there been consequences.<br /><br />This could not be further from the truth. Of course you must stand up for your rights but not at the expense of giving up that which makes you human and links you to your fellow human beings and in my case to God. <br /><br />On my blog, most of the comments that are left for me are very much inline with the thinking of the WHM. The opening sentence is already an attack calling me colorful names. <br />As you mentioned in this post it seems the WHM are the most oppressed group of people, well after calling me names for daring to speak out against oppression of women and girls they immediately try and turn the whole thing around by going on about how the WHM is oppressed. <br /><br />Well if the WHM is indeed oppressed the only people I see oppressing him are his fellow WHM.<br /><br />Anyway I have no desire to even try and enter a discussion with them as I know it will achieve nothing good. If it does achieve anything it just makes me angrier. So in order not to mimic the WHM I simple delete their comments. Don’t post them, don’t enter discussion. Just delete and move onto something genuinely importantChristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01991452705504076417noreply@blogger.com
