I don't think that there's really so many differences. Some men think every woman is a manipulative whore. Some women think that all men are chauvinist pigs.
In either case, both groups are bigoted jerks.
All the same, I thought that the FAQ forbidding bigotry/death threats against women/whatever was a good sign.
Er, maybe not.
Vector, you don't have to listen to everyone. Sure, it helps to listen to the opposition in a debate. But those sort of people aren't the opposition. The opposition is any reasonably thinking body of people that can potentially be swayed to your side of a debate. Those guys are never going to sway to any philosophy that does not crown them master of the known world.
True, but I've read the pro-feminist hate-spewing diatribes. I read through a venting forum (ASPartners) about how people with AS are just impossible to live with and be married to. Heck, I just kind of... have been reading, because I can't fight something whose arguments I fail to understand. I wanted to make sure there weren't points I was missing. In my search for equality, I don't want to shortchange men, or blind myself by riding in on a wave of good talking points. I want to see what there is to see.
The big thing is that for all that they bill themselves as intellectual and philosophical, they do an awful lot of namecalling. It looks kind of like a kneejerk reaction to second-wave feminism (which I will say was really fucking problematic in many, many ways) without paying attention to the things that the third wave has to offer.
Ah, well. Maybe somewhere else.
...Wait, anti-suffragists in this day and age?? I'm hoping this site is just completely infested with trolls, but...
Well, you know. They're angry =/ I've seen a lot of people arguing that feminism is causing "the collapse of society," starting with giving women the right to vote. "Rome fell because women started to have more personal freedom," etc.
I don't really want to argue against that here, but I'll just add that this nostalgia of the past is just as virulent as it always has been
