	Empowering Men: fighting feminist lies
The Personal is Political Peter Zohrab 2018

 

The article The Personal is Political at http://www.carolhanisch.org/CHwritings/PIP.html implies that that slogan means that "personal problems are political problems." For my part, I could write a whole Men's Rights book analysing the Feminist oppression of men on the basis of my personal experiences, so men can play that game too!

For now, I would like to mention just two experiences:

1. I was once rung up at home by a (much younger) niece, who immediately attacked me for saying on the Internet that the Women's Refuge consisted of man-haters. She neither said where she had seen this alleged statement of mine nor whether I had used the actual term "man-haters" or some other term. I have the impression that some females use the term "man-hater" to mean "Lesbian", whereas I do not. When I say "man-hater", I mean someone who hates men -- not a woman who prefers to have sex with other women, although there is certainly some overlap between these two types of people. Feminists like this niece probably have/had no concept of "man-hating", since man-hating is all around us in Western countries and is more or less synonymous with Feminism, which is the dominant ideology. How could she know what man-hating is, when she possibly hates men herself and considers it the normal way of thinking about men? Anyway, I found it very offensive to be rung up by a much younger and less intelligent relative and attacked in this way. It shows how powerful women are, relative to men, that they think they are entitled to behave in this way towards older male relatives. Moreover, Jan Logie, the current Parliamentary Undersecretary to the Minister of Justice Andrew Little with a focus on domestic and sexual violence issues, describes herself as a "lefty, feminist lesbian" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jan_Logie) and she used to work at Women's Refuge.

2. As a mature student, I was once sitting in a lecture room behind, and to one side of, a rather attractive young woman who I had not seen before. I did not pay any attention to her, but she looked at me and must have recognised me from a photograph, because she did something on her cellphone and soon a nephew of mine appeared at the back door of the lecture hall and stared at us. Then this woman -- without introducing herself or addressing me by name -- suddenly told me that I should just go along with lecturers who happened to be Feminist. I had never discussed this issue with my nephew. I replied, "I'm not like that!" and that was the end of the conversation. Again, I found it very offensive to be given instructions in this way by a much younger and probably less intelligent female stranger. Again, it shows how powerful women are, relative to men, that they think they are entitled to behave in this way towards older males. Feminist lecturers are not just harmless biddies teaching courses that you should just try to pass and forget about. They teach lies and distortions and they empower women to oppress men by giving them fake reasons to hate men.

... is part of one of the most important theories we are beginning to articulate. We call it "the pro-woman line." What it says basically is that women are really neat people.

1. What else can reverse the Feminist revolutionary gains referred to above? and

2. What kind of revolution could that be, other than a Right-Wing, Patriarchal one?

I am not answering these questions -- just asking them!
