Re: MRA Women: The worst thing since AIDS

Mm, I don't care for her approach.

She seems intelligent and knowledgeable. Some of the points she addresses aren't without merit; for example, I don't think arguments that male rape is impossible or "not really rape" hold much water either, and taking an excessively ideological approach to ANYTHING (and there most definitely are feminists who are guilty of that) does have some serious pitfalls. Also, she's hardly the first person who's proposed that various social justice issues are ultimately red herrings, deliberately fostered or exacerbated by the economically privileged as a divide-and-conquer tactic to keep the economically disadvantaged from uniting against class-based oppression.

But what good points she does make tend to get lost in sarcasm, overgeneralizations, ad hominem attacks and insults, dismissiveness, and other unseemly behaviors that don't help her case. Her argument for objectivity is undermined by her own very biased approach to her subject.

Wait wait wait.

I didn't even bother watching her videos, because obvious troll thread.

But she honestly argues that it isn't possible for males to be raped? (Or for them to rape other people?)

Has she been in contact with reality lately?

No, she refers to feminists (by name) who have made, respectively, the claim that a man who is raped isn't REALLY raped, or that men can't be raped, period. The woman making the videos doesn't agree with them.
