...... surely you cannot have been that unable to understand the point.
Not all women are feminists (believe in gender equality), of those women who are feminists only a [small] minority of them are extremists "man haters".
Do you support the 'White Ribbon Campaign' held on the anniversary of the 'Montreal Massacre'? You're sexist.
I just looked up what this is.
The Montreal Massacre For 45 minutes on Dec. 6, 1989 an enraged gunman roamed the corridors of Montreal's École Polytechnique and killed 14 women. Marc Lepine, 25, separated the men from the women and before opening fire on the classroom of female engineering students he screamed, "I hate feminists." Almost immediately, the Montreal Massacre became a galvanizing moment in which mourning turned into outrage about all violence against women.
What is the White Ribbon Campaign (WRC)? The WRC is the largest effort in the world of men working to end men's violence against women. It relies on volunteer support and financial contributions from individuals and organizations.
So - moving to end male violence against women (which is much more prevalent than female violence against men) is sexist? By what standards?
Because supposedly we're saying ONLY men commit violence against women and not vice versa? That's BS: simply because people support an end to male->female violence doesn't mean they don't support an end to female->male violence - That's a logical fallacy - the false dilemma.
(Guess i just demonstrated that I can use that thing called "logic" which you accused me of being unable to do)
Do you cringe when you see a man hit a woman? You're sexist.
I'd only be sexist if it didn't cringe when I see a woman hit a man. Any violence not in self defense, or the defense of another, is abhorrent
Do you support the 'White Ribbon Campaign' held on the anniversary of the 'Montreal Massacre'? You're sexist.
Not familiar with the "White Ribbon Campaign"
Do you see no problem in the way men are shown as idiots and women as smart and organised in advertisements? You're sexist.
Actually I do have a problem with it
Do you get personally offended when someone disagrees with your point of view? You're, well not sexist, more like a dick really.
A) I don't get "Easily" offended B) I didn't get offended because of disagreement - i was offended by implied stereotyping and baseless dismissal
But what about those that believe men are less than woman? Few admit to this, in fact, few realize they are incredibly sexist towards men. But enough about the general population, what about you?
No; I, despite your previous presumptious statements and attempt to imply otherwise, am not sexist - at all.
That is fucking priceless. You're a sexist. I couldn't have made up anything better. It is possible that you are an extremist feminist, even though you're a man. If you can be a feminist, you can be an extreme feminist.
I know very well that anyone who can be a feminist can be an extreme feminist - Furthermore While it is possible for a man to be an extremist feminist, it's not very likely stastically speaking. Being that the statistics bear out that makes it not a sexist comment: it makes it a comment to put things into context. Second I was also framing the statement in a manner the original mindless troll would understand.
Wow, good for your wife (I guess. What kind of a job can you get with a PoliSci/Women's Studies degree?), but I'm not talking to her, I'm talking to you. Apparently she has some education in this area, do you?
I have what I learn from her, and the ethics I derive from humanist doctrine (i'm an atheist humanist) My formal education is in computer science.
(Job: many, average salary for someone with a Poli Sci degree is about $97k)
Hot balls, you are smart! Ignore people you don't agree with? That's brilliant. Actually, intelligent people look at all arguments and then make up their mind.
Way to choose to interpret things in the worst possible manner to construct your straw man argument.
let me be more specific in what I meant: Intelligent people find the arguments of extremist meritless and dismiss them as such.
you can't back up your arguments with either fact or logic
Don't presume your enemy cannot do something when they haven't yet chose to employ that tactic.
So, how about you think about it and try and prove you're not retarded - the first step would be replying to THIS post, and not your own, for the 4th time in this article.
Now this is rich: you accuse me of being stupid for "replying to my own post", but in doing so demonstrate that don't know how slashdot comment system works! When you are attempting to insult someone's intelligence it would be wise not to do so in a manner that displays your own ignorance! It reparented my posts because the people I was replying to got moderated out of existance, just like you have!
Now it is your turn to prove your intelligence. The first step would be replying to this post without being presumptious.
No, I was stating her credentials on the subject - such as when you state that someone has a computer science degree to show that they know* what they're talking about in the field of computers
One of them is the name. The name doesn't say "equality", it's all about women.
I fully agree with that statement and have said smiliar in the past.
Another one is the baggage. There've been so many radical feminists that have been embraced by the movement that there's an instant stigma attached to being a "feminist".
Yes there is baggage, I wouldn't really say "embraced" so much as though - it's just a movement that is very tolerant of variances in opinion and very much "take what you want from what the person says, discard waht you dislike"
Feminism really is humanism just a specific part of it given a name. It gives me an interesting idea for a discussion I should have with my fiancee.
Oh i'll admit he's catching some heat that other people deserve more:D I'm also working late since several of the marketing people think their code changes have god-given priority over something I've needed to get finished coding by thursday but they keep interrupting.
Oh grow up - you've presented no evidence that the majority of feminist literature IS extremist either - so STFU your snarky little punk.
for a list of feminist literature you would have to talk to my fiancee who is finishing off her double degree in women's studies and political science.
I'm not "one of those extremists" for one: i have a dick. Second I believe in the basic tenants of feminism only: equality of the sexes, choice of roles, respect between the sexes - but none of the nonsense some of the more vociferous and less intelligent feminists try to claim are feminism: such as the hatred of pornography. My fiancee is the same - she is infact getting a double degree: Women's Studies and Political Science. There is a wide range of different ideas amongst the few.
My very angry reaction is that i'm sick and tired of people equating feminism to man hating - because it's not.
You need to learn to read, and i have read feminist literature: I, like any intelligent person, ignore the extremists
"Women who challenge patriarchal structuers, whether compulsory pregnancy, harassment on the job, or nuclear war, will be made to pay." (Barstow, Witchcraze: A New History of the European Witch)... and this crap attempts to pass itself as academic history.
Let me restructure this sentance in a language you will understand
if ($person->isWoman() && $person->challenges(array("patriarchy", "compulsory pregnancy", "harassment on the job", "nuclear war")) {
$misogynists->attack($person); }
and the statement is absolutely correct - women, and men, who stand up for the equality of the sexes are attacked by misogynistic asses like you
You are the only one, and your ignorance and misogyny is showing. Grow up, women are equals, stop associating the extremists of a group as being the extire group.
All groups extremists drag that groups name through the mud - misogynistic punks just like to forget that
Christian extremists drag the name of Christianity through the mud Muslim extremists drag the name of Islam through the mud Environmentalism extremists drag the name of Environmentalism through the mud Animal Rights extremists drag the name of Animal Rights through the mud Extremist feminists drag the name of Feminism through the mud
do I really need to go on or are you going to wise up and learn that the fundamental tenents of feminism are: equality of the sexes, the right to choose their roles for both sexes, respect between the sexes.
These extremists vary from that. There are whacko feminists who think all sex is rape, while I know several feminists who think porn awesome*: i'm marrying one of them and the other is going the PRODUCE porn. There are whacko feminists who really are "man haters" but they are not the majority by a long shot.
So GROW UP and stop trying to pretend that the minority is the majority: feminism is about equality - not all these things that Rush Limbaugh falsely attributes to it because of some it's more extreme members.
*except like.. snuff porn, and bukakke
(PS: I'm a guy and a *gasp* feminist because I believe in the equality of the sexes!)

"You know what they call that where I come from? Leftist"
It's your definition that is in error and you know it. That explains the arrogance in the opening of your post entirely.
You don't get to make up definitions of political science terms as you see fit
You're attempting to define "conservatism=status quo, leftism=change" which is false. Conservatives only uphold the status quo when it serves their sexist, corporatist, and theocratic goals.
The people and groups who advocate liberal, often radical measures to effect change in the established order, especially in politics, usually to achieve the equality, freedom, and well-being of the common citizens of a state. Also called left wing. - AH dict.
considering global warming a conspiracy theory is not leftism - it arises from being a corporatist (rightism), teaching religion in schools (Which was never fully ceased!) is authoritarian theocratic which, yet again, is rightism
If it wasn't for leftists this country wouldn't exist - the founding fathers were by far leftists of their day: secular government with explicit protections of the rights of the citizens. That was the radical leftism of their day.
