Porky's Place

Femi-nits Upset By Equality Yet Again.

Recently male students at places like Oxford University have set up men’s organizations to look at the problems of being male, and guess who the first people to complain have been? Of course, it’s been the feminists, and as usual the criticism has been as honest as it is intelligent.

According to this Guardian article, those seeking to maintain female privilege claim these groups are “just a front for macho activities and beer-drinking marathons”. Now clearly, these people know that there is more to these groups than playing rugby and getting on the piss, or they wouldn’t be objecting! After all how much political damage are such activities going to cause? None, it’s the more serious activities these obviously bright young men are getting up to that really worries the feminists. For example, the MENS Society at Manchester University works at raising awareness of things like male rape and domestic violence, and therein lies the real reason for the attacks on these groups – the feminists are afraid of an on-campus voice that will challenge all the usual feminist hate speech about men.

Blithers one of the wiminz…

“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?”

What else can we expect from little Olivia Bailey, National Union of Students’ national women’s officer, and promoter of all-female programs such as Sister ACTivist ? Not the truth obviously. Sister ACTivist expressly forbids male participation, so Bailey herself provides evidence of “Discrimination against men on the basis of gender”! On a broader societal level we have the fact that men are still raised to feel as if they are the ones who have to go and do the soldiering, even though physical strength becomes less important every year – there is quite simply no social or psychological pressure for women to go and die in war, the option to do so is there, but the pressure is not. Then of course, there’s women-only short lists courtesy of both Labor and the Tories, women-only insurance companies…

And for some inexplicable reason, perhaps because he was the only man brainless enough to say such things, the Guardian decided to ask Martin Daubney, a 39 year old in charge of a rag called “Loaded”…

….what he thought, though from what i’ve seen of this man thinking probably has nothing to do with his views…

“I don’t think men are remotely confused about what it takes to be a man. They just get on and do it. My generation would not sit round and build a website about being confused. It’s complete navel-gazing bullshit.”

The first thing I have to say to that piece of buffoonery, is that the men’s movement is dominated by men from his generation, and the second is that any man lame enough to be running something like “Loaded” at the age of 39 is not exactly a credible source of social commentary. Loaded is what I like to call “Porn for Prudes,” one of those bizarre Nineties inventions that shows women in their underwear rather than in the raw ala Playboy. Who give a shit! I can go to Bondi Beach to see chicks in bikinis, so how stupid would I have to be to give this joker my money? Recent issues of Loaded have featured such important issues as whether Lady Gaga is a “moose” or a “minx”, and something or other about Obama’s wiener! I put it to you that not only is Martin Daubney not bright enough to be asked what he thinks, he isn’t even a man – he’s just a big hairy boy.
