    The below may sound completely ridiculous, but we have to bear in mind that there are a large segment of women within the feminist movement that whole-heartedly believe these things.


    "All men are rapists and that's all they are"
    — Marilyn French, Authoress; (later, advisoress to Al Gore's Presidential Campaign.)

    "I believe that women have a capacity for understanding and compassion which man structurally does not have, does not have it because he cannot have it. He's just incapable of it."
    — Barbara Jordan; Former Congresswoman

    "Men are rapists, batterers, plunderers, killers; these same men are religious prophets, poets, heroes, figures of romance, adventure, accomplishment, figures ennobled by tragedy and defeat. Men have claimed the earth, called it 'Her'. Men ruin Her. Men have airplanes, guns, bombs, poisonous gases, weapons so perverse and deadly that they defy any authentically human imagination."
    — Andrea Dworkin, "Pornography: Men Possessing Women"

    "As long as some men use physical force to subjugate females, all men need not. The knowledge that some men do suffices to threaten all women. He can beat or kill the woman he claims to love; he can rape women...he can sexually molest his daughters... THE VAST MAJORITY OF MEN IN THE WORLD DO ONE OR MORE OF THE ABOVE."
    — Marilyn French

    "I feel that 'man-hating' is an honorable and viable political act, that the oppressed have a right to class-hatred against the class that is oppressing them."
    — Robin Morgan, "Ms. Magazine" Editor

    "Under patriarchy, every woman's son is her potential betrayer and also the inevitable rapist or exploiter of another woman."
    — Andrea Dworkin

    "All sex, even consensual sex between a married couple, is an act of violence perpetrated against a woman."
    — Catherine MacKinnon

    "And if the professional rapist is to be separated from the average dominant heterosexual (male), it may be mainly a quantitative difference."
    — Susan Griffin, "Rape: The All-American Crime"

    In a speech in Banff, Canada, Andrea Dworkin exhorted her audience to "stop men who beat women", "Get them jailed or get them killed. ... When the law fails us, we cannot fail each other."

    "Men, as a group, tend to be abusive, either verbally, sexually or emotionally. There are always the exceptions, but they are few and far between (I am married to one of them). There are different levels of violence and abuse and individual men buy into this system by varying degrees. But the male power structure always remains intact."
    — Message on FEMISA, responding to a request for arguments that men are unnecessary for a child to grow into mature adulthood

    "Women have their faults. Men have only two: everything they say, and everything they do."
    — graffiti frequently found on university campuses with active feminist movements



    From 'A feminist Dictionary', edited by Kramarae and Triechler, Pandora Press, 1985:

    MALE:...represents a variant of or deviation from the category of female. The first males were mutants...the male sex represents a degeneration and deformity of the female.

    MAN:...an obsolete life form... an ordinary creature who needs to be watched...a contradictory baby-man...

    TESTOSTERONE POISONING: ... 'Until now it has been though that the level of testosterone in men is normal simply because they have it. But if you consider how abnormal their behavior is, then you are led to the hypothesis that almost all men are suffering from "testosterone poisoning."



    We should also be concerned about feminist activist judges. Police, prosecutors, judges and attorneys alike all seek to protect themselves from potential criticism. The truth is that, in many instances, it has become impossible to effectively represent a man against whom any allegation of domestic violence has been made. In virtually all cases, no.meaningful hearing or impartial weighing of the evidence is to be had. In many [divorce] cases, baseless allegations of abuse are now used for tactical advantage.

    Due to the persistent efforts of radical feminists, women who have not even been physically abused are released after serving very short sentences for killing their husbands. A 1994 Bureau of Justice Statistics analysis of murder cases disposed in 1988 in the courts of large urban counties found that wives convicted of killing their husbands were sentenced to an average of 6 years in prison while husbands convicted of killing their wives were sentenced to an average of 17 years. (By comparison, the average sentence for a non-family murder is 14.7 years.) Sixteen percent of the wives, but only 1.6 percent of the husbands, received probation. In addition, the acquittal rate was 12.9 percent for wives accused of killing their husbands compared to 1.4 percent for husbands accused of killing their wives.

    Other cases are never even tried. Reviewing a sample of female-offender homicides, sociologist Coramae Richey Mann found the case of a woman who claimed self-defense after shooting her husband six times in the back of the head in a domestic argument during which he had threatened her with a chair. The case was dismissed. In Brooklyn, New York, in 1987, Marlene Wagshall shot her sleeping husband in the stomach with a .357 magnum revolver after finding a photo of him with another woman. (He survived but lost parts of his stomach, liver, and upper intestine.) There was no evidence to corroborate her claims of physical abuse. A grand jury indicted Wagshall for attempted murder, but feminist District Attorney Elizabeth Holtzman reduced the charge to second-degree assault and accepted a guilty plea with a sentence of one day in jail and five years' probation.

    Besides the progressive socialist movement and the CPUS (Communist Party United States), I can't think of a more vile anti American group of leftists than these ugly lesbo femanazis.

    She says that all men are nothing but rapists and then becomes an "advisoress" to Al Gore - a man. Feminist logic at work here, folks.

    We needn`t be afraid of feminism, feminism doesn`t create the sickness of the frothing man haters, there have always been hags amongst humanity, just as there has always been women bashing, men. These two are just each side of the same sick coin. Some people are just ugly inside.

    To OP;

    I bet if I were so inclined, I could waste a few hours of my life compiling a bunch of sexist and misogynistic quotes from men in power. Heck, I bet some of the feminist women came to their beliefs because of sexism and its ilk. Women who hate men and men who hate women are the fringe... nothing more. The squeaky wheel...

    I see you are jealous of our position , Anders , one which you and the States seem locked into .
    Pity you don't have the cultural diversity we have and enjoy .Any hints of such feminist extremism have been marginalised here as we have developed a free and tolerant country .

    So tolerant of those alternate lifestyles in fact that Sharia Law is almost the governing rule of your society. Good luck with that.

    I distance myself from feminism for several reasons.

    Firstly: It's more commonly associated with anti-masculism (I just made that term up, guess the meaning) then with actual equality.

    Secondly: It really has no goal anymore in the west. There are no, in my country atleast, laws that specifically prohibits women from doing certain things. I wouldn't be suprised if there were some laws giving special priviledges to women though..

    Thridly: The name! it suggests an ideology who's primary goal is to promoto womanliness! Replace that with manliness and you see how ridiculous it sounds. And it's not a fitting name if one goal is equality.

    Fourth: The left-wing taint..

    It's a badly named political anachronism whose original purpose has long been fulfilled and has since been hijacked by man-hating old ladies!

    And just for the records, I'm for actual equality between the sexes.

    Unfortunately, it seems modern day feminism is more about trying to impose a cultural on young boys, emphasising "feminine" qualities, and rejecting "masculine" qualities. I think this is a big mistake, and will no doubt have unintended (negetive) consequences in the relationships between the two sexes.

    Indeed. Here in the socialistic feminist paradise of sweden we are teaching our lads to play with barbie's and dress in skirts while at the same time importing lot's of homophobic muslims. Great combo I tell ya!

    Boys want to play with toy soldiers and shoot at each other, girls want to play with dolls and such. I'm may be generalizing it a bit but it's mostly true. Let boys be boys and girls be girls, forcing them to deny their nature in the name of some social engineering dream is madness.

    Isn't this what happened in Department of Homeland Security. Lesbos thought they had the upper hand. and they showed they ugly selves. I guess that's what happens when you put these types of people in control. Big Sis and her galpals. Disgraceful and totally expected.

    I clicked on the link to verify the context to make sure this was not being misrepresented, but even its original context it is still apallingly misandrist. Misandry is a real problem, and it gets ignored in society. I mean, just look at this forum for example. It's a perfect illustration of the social narrative. It has a "women's rights" section but no men's rights section. If these people were really concerned with equality, they'd demand a gender rights section that encompasses all. But I don't see any push for that anywhere.

    I think the lack of a 'men's right's' is because there's isn't so terribly many violations of men's right's compared to women's.

    Really? Well you know that if you cherry pick SOMEONE will check it out and when it is at vast variance from the original intent of the post, well, they just might think that the person cherry picking is in fact lying. Let us look at the ENTIRE discussion - the comment that triggered this response and the response itself:-

    And speaking of FemeNazi quotes, the first reference I ever saw to a woman declaring that all men are rapists is a doosh by the name of Susan Brownmiller, circa, 1970. I guess since then, a lot of them love to vocalize that sentiment, eh?

    then there is this doosh: Sonia Sotomayor
    "I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life."

    Yes Sonia, let me know when the first WISE Latina woman invents something of NOTE

    and Sonia is the same one that in order for her to be appointed to the SJC by the Obama admin had to step down as a member of her FemaNazi all female club that she belonged to.

    don't ya just love hypocrites and law breakers like this? and the politically correct can't WAIT to adore them.
    this is the type of b-hole that will make some horrible horrible decisions on the court.

    oh, well.
