The Manchurian Rapist If you believe that Men are biologically destined to be rapists, you believe in “biological determinism.” As radical feminism is predicated on the idea that all roles played by/forced on Males and Females are socially constructed, radical feminism by definition rejects biological determinism. Let’s assume, for the sake of this discussion, that […]

Apparently, Anonymous is a Homophobic Men’s Rights Activist

April 22, 2013 · by · in National · 13 Comments

Not shockingly, Men’s Rights Activists have descended on this blog since I posted a statement from the organizers of Rad Fem 2013 about the intimidation of the London Irish Centre by MRAs. You can read the comments there to see how violent and paranoid MRAs are. There are more comments I need to scrub of […]

STATEMENT NOW POSTED ON THE RADFEM2013 WEBSITE BY THE ORGANISERS. Unsurprisingly, and for the second year in a row, men’s rights activists have bullied venue staff hosting Radfem 2013, into submitting to their terror tactics. Despite the fact that the organisers of this year’s Rad Fem 2013 were completely transparent about our intentions for the […]

Response from Ubaka Hill: I am compelled to respond directly to your direct request that I boycott the MWMF in August 2013. First of all, thank you for showing the courage to take action for what you and others believe is right, just and worthy of a strategy of a boycott as a method to […]

One of my all time favorite movies is Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb. Have you seen it? It features the incomparable Peter Sellers (one of my all-time favorite actors, male or female) in four different roles, including Dr. Strangelove, who invented The Bomb. It’s a satire about […]

  This screenshot is from the MRA website here. Don’t click on the link unless you have an IP hider, because I AM SURE these guys track IPs. Paul Elam’s biggest claim to fame is infiltrating some message board where women with no power or money were talking and saying things that hurt their feelings. […]

That Awkward Moment

One of the charges Transgender Warriors and their Signal-Boosting Liberal Allies regularly lodge against Radical Feminists is that Radical Feminists are “biological determinists” for knowing that human biology exists. According to these folks, biological determinism makes us Nazis and KKK members and right-wingers. Transgender Warriors and Outstanding Liberal Allies engage in this blitz attack on […]
