12. "hating men"

Is the common charge waged against feminists. Think about what they are saying. You are concerned about child abuse. Other have had that charge waged in discussions of adult rape. How are rape and pedophilia inherent in men? They are not. They are behaviors of sexual predators. In making the charges of hating men in response to concerns of rape, they reveal their own dark and ugly conception of what it means to be a man.


Some of those speaking out for Allen are the ones who always defend any accused rapist. Yet it appears to me that he enjoys more support than other accused rapists, even Julian Assange. I'm thinking of Ida Brigg's thread in particular.
