I Can't Be Bothered To Think Up A Title For This Post.

Feminists like to say things like:
Discrimination against men on the basis of gender is so unusual as to be non-existent, so what exactly will a men’s society do? To suggest that men need a specific space to be ‘men’ is ludicrous, when everywhere you turn you will find male-dominated spaces.”
I don't think men are routinely discriminated against, despite the best efforts of the femiloon movement. Then again I don't think women are routinely discriminated against either, because lets face it that were the case surely Women's Studies professors would be able to find more substantial examples of discrimination than this:
Carmen Siering, assistant professor of English and women's studies at Ball State University, said: "With just a moment of critical analysis, feminists can't be too happy about how the latest episode in the Twilight series, adapted from Stephenie Meyer's popular books, represents a young woman and her place in the modern world. In fact, the New film is really just more of the same, only worse."

So how come Dr. Who never got transmogrified into a woman ? Anti-feminism is corporatly institutionalised at the heart of the BBC.

Amazing to find a feminist at 'Ball State University' who hasn't campaigned to change the name on the basis that it reinforces male-dominated stereotypes...
