- I've heard people make similar comments. This is an eye-opening article that'll help feminists and non-feminists understand what we we want and are about.

- fools who believe "feminists are sexist" are using the same type of small-minded claims to discredit any progressive movement, like saying there's "reverse racism" in promoting minority scholarships. Life is not a level playing field, so don't give progressives crap for trying to help each other just because "the other side" doesn't get a "fair and balanced" focus. /soapbox

- An article about how to defend yourself as a feminist when men accuse you of being a hypocritical sexist.

- From the page: "And yes, yes, for the hundredth time YES, feminists disapprove of advertisements that stereotype men as ignorant buffoons. These ads are nothing more than macho caricatures which, as Holly Combe said to me recently,'make fools of men, whilst simultaneously making excuses for them.'

From the page: "Feminists are the least likely people to say 'all men are bastards.' Some of them might say 'many men behave like bastards.' But they don't imply that such behaviour is acceptable because it's genetic or 'natural' for men to behave that way, like those arguments defending rapists which imply that men are really all just stupid cavemen who can't be blamed when they rape because, hey, men just can't help it when they see someone in a mini skirt. Feminists don't write books about how men are genetically incapable of picking up an iron. Feminists don't write books about how men are from another planet, one where men have to be left 'in their cave' because they just don't have proper emotions like women do. That's because actually, feminists think men should be treated as fully functional human beings with brains and morals who should be held responsible for the choices they make. If I was a man, I'd rather have that than the shallow and insulting implication that 'men can't help it because they're naturally stupid.' If I was a man, I know which I'd be most offended by. If I was a man, I know who I'd accuse of 'man-hating.' And yes, yes, for the hundredth time YES, feminists disapprove of advertisements that stereotype men as ignorant buffoons. These ads are nothing more than macho caricatures which, as Holly Combe said to me recently, `make fools of men, whilst simultaneously making excuses for them.'
Men are from earth. Women are from earth. Deal with it. "

- From the page: "Gay rights activists aren't expected to spend half their time campaigning for heterosexuals. Anti-racism activists aren't expected to spend ages campaigning on behalf of white people. Yet its a different story with feminism, isn't it?"
EX-fucking-ACTLY! So all you anti-fem dumbasses stop your bitching. You most likely don't even know what you're talking about.
