The headline on your Inside Higher Education column made me laugh.

Teaching Gender Studies to Straight Men

Bwahahhaha!

This involves three things that all academic feminists are against:

  1. Men;
  2. Gender;
    and
  3. Heterosexuality.

What is fascinating to me, after more than two years of in-depth research into modern feminism, is the arrogance of feminists in assuming that men are too stupid to accurately assess the movement’s agenda. Do you think men are so illiterate that they can’t comprehend simple sentences?

Feminism Is Queer — that’s pretty simple, huh? It’s also the title of a Gender Studies textbook by Professor Mimi Marinucci, as well as a concise summary of the anti-male/anti-heterosexual ideology of the feminist movement in the 21st century. Since beginning the Sex Trouble project in July 2014, I’ve stacked up such a massive pile of quotes to document the truth — Feminism Is a Totalitarian Movement to Destroy Civilization as We Know It — that readers have ceased to be surprised when I show them the latest example of anti-male hate propaganda I’ve uncovered, e.g., “Queer Feminism vs. ‘The Fragile Male Ego’” (Dec. 28) or lesbian feminist Jill Gutowitz’s man-hating anti-Trump rage (Dec. 24).

 

This is what feminism means in the 21st century, and if you’re a feminist wondering why Hillary Clinton lost, the answer is: YOU.

Studying feminism calls to mind something I first observed back in the 1980s. If a guy’s wife or girlfriend ever says to him, “We need to talk about our relationship,” he is in big trouble. She’s got a problem, and she has decided that the problem is you. No woman has ever used the “we need to talk about our relationship” line except with the intention of making the guy accept 100% of the blame for her unhappiness.

If a woman is happy, she doesn’t need to talk about your relationship, and no unhappy woman can resist blaming her problems on her boyfriend or her husband or her ex-boyfriend or ex-husband or maybe, if no other male scapegoat is handy, she’ll blame her Daddy for her unhappiness.

Every married man understands this. Whatever the wife is unhappy about is always her husband’s fault, and there is no point trying to argue about it. The secret to avoiding divorce is two words: “Yes, dear.”

This is what feminists mean when they blame “patriarchy” for everything wrong in the world. This is just collective scapegoating, as opposed to the individual scapegoating that every husband must endure when his wife is unhappy. And so, when feminists start ranting about “objectification” or “rape culture,” men are expected to answer, “Yes, dear.”

However, there are certain benefits involved in marriage which make men willing to cope with their wives’ anger, whereas men derive no benefit at all from being lectured by a university Gender Studies professor, or by a man-hating blogger like Jessica Valenti. Being a married man means there is only one woman who is authorized to insult me and, in case you didn’t notice, I never asked any Gender Studies majors to marry me.

 

Yeah, that’s a really subtle message, Dr. Lieberman. It’s about as subtle as your dishonest method of promoting your perverted agenda:

How I got a group of straight male college freshmen to take a course on gender, sex and sexuality is simple: I didn’t tell them the topic before they signed up. . . .
I was teaching the required English composition class, but since the course catalog didn’t permit me to list a topic, none of the students knew the focus of the course until they attended the first day of class. I was worried that all the straight guys would flee the minute they read the syllabus and learned what the topic was.

See how it works? Students at a taxpayer-supported state university sign up for a basic English composition class required for graduation and, instead of being taught what they paid tuition to learn, they get a Gender Studies lecture from Professor Dildo, the feminist sex-toy specialist.

So, just to recap, Dr. Hallie Lieberman of the University of Wisconsin (a) wants to mandate health insurance coverage for dildos, (b) advocates providing pornography to minors, (c) is anti-marriage, (d) is pro-butt plug, (e) believes men should be required to own prosthetic vaginas and, in case you didn’t guess (f) hates Republicans. Well, let’s return to see what she was teaching in freshman English class:

By the time I taught about transgender representation in the media, the semester was more than halfway done. I was worried that even though trans issues are having a moment, many of my straight male students would be made uncomfortable by discussions of transgender. So I left this topic for later in the course . . . . Giggling and being visibly uncomfortable is a legitimate response for kids who’ve never met a trans person, whose parents are die-hard Republicans who oppose gay marriage, as many of my students’ parents were. . . .
As the week went on, I realized that there was subversive potential in teaching teenagers about transgender issues with no apologies . . .
As a graduate student, I’d taken multiple courses on gender and sexuality, but I never saw a straight man in my course. . . .

And why do you think that was, Dr. Lieberman? Because (a) Gender Studies programs are run by lesbians who hate heterosexual men, and (b) even if a heterosexual man somehow got a Gender Studies degree, no university in America would hire him, because the institutional purpose of having Gender Studies departments is to help meet “diversity” quotas by providing faculty employment for man-hating lesbians.

You dishonesty — the unethical bait-and-switch by which you defrauded those freshmen who had signed up for a required English course — is typical of the entire fraudulent enterprise of academic feminism.

You should be ashamed of yourself, Dr. Lieberman, but if you had any capacity for shame, you wouldn’t be Professor Dildo, would you?

America Is Rapidly Becoming Insane

Posted on | January 4, 2017 | 1 Comment

Does murder suspect Jerry Pagan look crazy to you?

Barack Obama kept his promise to fundamentally transform America, and our country is turning into a coast-to-coast lunatic asylum:

A homeless man was indicted Tuesday for killing his Bronx lover, authorities said.
Court papers show that Jerry Pagan, 32, confessed in grisly detail to murdering 68-year-old Richard Reed.
He told detectives that, before authorities intervened, he had planned to eat his victim’s penis and chop his head off.
“I stabbed him with a knife and hit him over the head with a hammer and cut off his penis and put it in the sink,” Pagan said to cops in a videotaped interview, the court papers show.
The accused killer added that he “was going to fry the penis up and eat it, too.”

A typical Democrat voter. Meanwhile, in Ohio . . .

Ohio sperm-squirting suspect Timothy Blake.

Washington County Sheriff Larry Mincks reported that Timothy D. Blake, 28, of 4520 Sams Creek Road, Mineral Wells, was arrested Friday evening in connection with several incidents of public masturbation and menacing in the Marietta area for the past two months.
“This has been a joint investigation between the Marietta Police Department and our office,” said Mincks. “An off-duty MPD officer came across his truck today with the specific insignia we had been searching for and called it in to his superiors and our office.”
Blake allegedly admitted to 12 instances in which he had masturbated in public shopping center parking lots, filled syringes with bodily fluid [i.e., semen] and followed women around stores squirting their backsides with the liquid.
“The first report came in two months ago from a woman who had found this on her bottom and after cleaning it off in the bathroom had walked out to find him waiting and staring at her,” said Mincks. “She said he then took off and she followed him until he got in his truck and left.”
Mincks said officials used both the woman’s description of Blake’s face and company truck to locate him. He also said they were able to use Wal-Mart’s security footage to add to the physical description of Blake.

The sheriff told WTAP-TV, “After we arrested Mr. Blake we asked him about it and he said that it was something that he had discovered on the internet and decided to try it.” Gosh, how is it that I’ve been on the Internet more than 20 years and never “discovered” this idea? What kind of freak is Timothy Blake? Is he registered to vote as a Democrat? Did he support Bernie Sanders or Hillary Clinton in the 2016  primary?

Meanwhile, in Wisconsin . . .

 

The University of Wisconsin-Madison is currently taking applications for its “Men’s Project,” a six-week program that aims to counter the alleged harmful effects of society’s masculinity paradigms and pressures and empower participants to promote “gender equity.”
“Men’s Project creates a space for critical self-reflection and dialogue about what it means to be a man and how masculinity impacts us and those around us,” organizers state in promoting the effort.
“The experience focuses on the examination of societal images, expectations, and messages around masculinity to empower men to better understand themselves, promote the advancement of gender equity, and raise consciousness in their communities,” organizers add.
It’s open only to “men-identified students” at the public university and “operates on a transformative model of social justice allyship,” according to a news release on the university’s website, which adds “by encouraging that kind of dialogue among a men-identified cohort, the goal is to create a sense of security in vulnerability throughout the six-week program.”

Any guy who would sign up for a “transformative model of social justice allyship” is insane.  What’s the difference between a lunatic asylum and the University of Wisconsin? They’re both full of dangerously crazy people, but only one of them has a Big Ten football program.



 

Good-Bye, @MegynKelly

Posted on | January 4, 2017 | No Comments

 

Did you make the smart move? That’s the question that occurs to most Fox News viewers who have watched your meteoric ascent, as they consider your switch to NBC. Surely the network that hired you would not have done so if they thought you were a conservative. NBC News is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Democrat Party. It is the network of Chris Matthews and Chuck Todd and Rachel Maddow. NBC is anti-Christian and pro-Islam, anti-family and pro-abortion, anti-cop and pro-“Black Lives Matter.” The partisan and ideological biases at NBC News are so blatantly obvious that it is impossible to imagine that you, Ms. Kelly, could be permitted to broadcast anything there that would deviate from the network’s Democrat/“progressive” agenda. But anyway . . .

 

“Bill hated her” — I laughed when I read that quote from an unnamed Fox News host in Gabriel Sherman’s article. Yes, and we hate Bill O’Reilly, a guy who’s been the “face” of Fox News for way too long. Why did Roger Ailes invest so heavily in making O’Reilly the tentpole of the network, the signature of the Fox News brand? It never made sense to me. Veteran news guys like Brit Hume and Brett Baier are the best thing on the network, and in terms of opinionated conservatism, Sean Hannity is more watchable. Yet year after year, O’Reilly has remained entrenched in his 8 p.m. time slot as the centerpiece of the Fox News identity, and I could seldom stand to watch more than a few minutes of The O’Reilly Factor.

“Personnel is policy,” as the Reaganites said, and the Ailes-era staffing decisions at Fox News seemed to reflect a commitment to a particular style of Republican political messaging, namely the old Al D’Amato Long Island GOP machine and its Art Finklestein-engineered attack strategy. Attracting a large viewership in the outer suburbs of New York City made sense, as a business strategy for Fox News, and the demographics of that audience meant that having an Irish Catholic guy from Long Island as the 8 p.m. anchor also made sense. But once the network had established its national influence, didn’t Fox News limit its audience by having this snide and smarmy egotist as its most famous face?

 

Well, The Kelly Files was a counter-balance to that problem, but the gigantic ego  of Bill O’Reilly — and the network’s investment in his ego — could not be effectively counter-balanced, and so, good-bye, Megyn:

For Kelly, the jump from a primetime perch at Fox to a multifaceted role at NBC carries a high degree of risk. She’ll be giving up the most loyal audience in cable news for new set of platforms that she’ll have to largely build herself. At NBC, Kelly will anchor an Oprah-like daytime show, launch a new Sunday night news magazine, and contribute to the network’s political coverage. The track record for talented anchors launching daytime programs hasn’t been good (see: Katie Couric, Meredith Vieira, Anderson Cooper), and no Fox News star has successfully crossed over to the mainstream before.

My hunch, Ms. Kelly, is that you will simply disappear. The partisan Democrats who run NBC News have no interest in your success. What they have done is to hire you away from Fox News in order to damage their rival, and to neutralize whatever personal influence you may have had in terms of undermining liberalism’s hegemonic control of the news media. You are now another highly-paid puppet whose strings are controlled by the executives at 30 Rock, and if you fail at NBC — if your daytime show is a ratings flop — those executives will have no problem paying out your contract while limiting your airtime to occasional appearances as a Meet the Press panelist.

 

Of course, I’ve been wrong before. A month before Election Day, I declared that the devastation of Trump’s accumulating scandals meant he couldn’t possibly win and, if I was wrong about that, maybe I’m also wrong about your career prospects at NBC News. How could you succeed?

  1. Be pro-life — The pro-abortion bias is arguably the most toxic aspect of the media’s liberal agenda. Obviously, NBC News isn’t going to let you use their airtime to promote the pro-life perspective in any blatant way, but there will be times when your decisions could have a subtle yet important influence. “Therefore choose life.”
  2. Be anti-Hollywood — My old friend Andrew Breitbart and I used to argue about which was more wicked, Hollywood or D.C. Having spent so long dealing with the two-faced backstabbing scoundrels in Washington, I was certain that D.C. was the most evil place on the planet, but Andrew was unconvinced. “No, trust me, Hollywood is worse,” he’d say, before regaling me with tales about the selfish coke-addicted perverts who run the entertainment industry. If you, Ms. Kelly, were to use your NBC daytime show to expose some of the shocking decadence of Hollywood, this would be a tremendous public service and, I suspect, would make you unique among major network news personalities.
  3. Be patriotic — What was the secret of Trump’s victory, really? First, “build a wall,” and second, “Make America great again.” This simple old-fashioned patriotism proved so popular that 63 million American voters were willing to overlook every negative aspect of Trump’s personality and politics. Maybe your NBC audience would find it refreshing to encounter a daytime show where the U.S. military and our nation’s law-enforcement officers are recognized for their heroic service to our country. Flag-waving Mom-and-apple-pie patriotism is a “brand” whose value has been unappreciated by the liberal media establishment, and you might enjoy surprising success at NBC if you make this a core theme of your new show.

Network TV stars don’t ask for my advice, and I offer it unsolicited only because it seems to me there is too much an echo-chamber mentality in the major media. People inside the news industry can never be objective about the industry and its problems. Unable to step outside the echo chamber, and unwilling to listen to anyone who isn’t part of the industry — what do they know, those stupid people who merely watch TV? — the media’s hive-mind generates a sort of impenetrable force-field that prevents insiders from seeing their industry’s problems objectively.

Maybe you, Ms. Kelly, can be an exception to that rule.

‘Madness Takes Its Toll’

Posted on | January 3, 2017 | 1 Comment

 

The Rocky Horror Campus Feminism Show:

A students’ union is discouraging its members from using the pronouns ‘he’ and ‘she’, to avoid assumptions being made as to how people identify.
Sussex University students’ union has released a gender inclusive language policy, which applies to all its meetings, radio broadcasts, communications, societies and elections.
The policy states that preferred pronouns should be stated at the beginning of every meeting, regardless of whether they have been stated at previous meetings, and that gender neutral language should be used when the pronoun is not known.
The policy continues: ‘In situations where introductions are not appropriate or where an individual has not directly stated their pronouns, gender-neutral language should be used to refer to them, and no assumptions should be made based on presentation or appearance.

Tranny ‘Feminist’ @RileyJayDennis Is Here to Educate You About Science

Posted on | January 2, 2017 | 2 Comments

 

Justin Dennis, a/k/a Riley J. Dennis, is a transgender activist who describes himself/“herself” as an “intersectional feminist” who is “also super queer (transfeminine lesbian to be specific).” Justin/Riley become notorious in November after he/“she” declared it is “discriminatory” for anyone not to want to date him/“her.” Being normal is now a hate crime, according to the Cult of Social Justice to which Justin/Riley belongs.

“Riley J. Dennis is a polyamorous, atheist, gender non-binary transwoman . . . educating people on the nuances of gender, sexuality, and intersectional feminism.”
Everyday Feminism

See? You’re ignorant about “nuances of gender,” which is why you need “educating” by “a polyamorous, atheist, gender non-binary transwoman.”

“Hillary is our only option to prevent a Trump presidency. That’s the only reason I really needed.”
Justin “Riley J.” Dennis, Oct. 30, 2016

Did I mention he/“she” is a Democrat? Because, of course he/“she” is. If you want your kids to be polyamorous gender non-binary atheist intersectional feminists like Riley J. Dennis, vote Democrat.

Getting the endorsement of Justin/Riley didn’t help Hillary Clinton with blue-collar voters in Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, but this doesn’t mean the election has caused Justin/Riley to reconsider his/“her” political ideology. In fact, he/“she” just released a new video explaining why there is no need to debate Trump supporters because Trump supporters are Nazis, and “not worthy of being debated”:

“And I know we’re always talking about how divided we’ve become as a country and how partisan, but I don’t think the answer is reaching across the aisle and shaking hands with a Nazi, because that’s exactly what this new administration is being filled with. Trump’s cabinet is already full of white nationalists. These are people who are openly misogynistic and anti-Semitic . . . The ‘alt-right’ people he surrounds himself with are modern-day neo-Nazis. . . . Because people tweet me or comment on my videos or something saying, ‘Ah, you won’t debate this idea. It’s because you’re afraid you’re gonna lose.’ . . . That’s not a logical conclusion to come to when someone doesn’t want to debate you. There’s like a million-and-a-half reasons someone might not want to debate you, but one of those might be, you just don’t have a valid viewpoint and you’re not worthy of being debated.”

 

See? If you disagree with Justin/Riley, that means “you just don’t have a valid viewpoint,” which means he/“she” doesn’t have to debate you.

You may wonder what makes Justin/Riley an expert qualified to determine what is or is not a “valid viewpoint.” Well, in addition to being a super queer transfeminine lesbian as well as a polyamorous, atheist, gender non-binary transwoman, Justin/Riley is also a recent graduate of Whittier College, where the annual tuition is $44,574, plus $12,902 room and board. Because your parents didn’t spend $57,476 a year to send you to a private liberal arts college, you obviously are too stupid to understand what words like “valid” and “viewpoint” mean.

Even though I didn’t attend prestigious Whittier College, I did ace Principles of Logic at Jacksonville (Ala.) State University, and I understand what a false analogy looks like, and I also know a straw man fallacy when I see one, so let’s quote some more Riley J. Dennis, OK?

“There are people living today, in 2016, who honestly believe that the Earth is flat. Now the thing is, those people are allowed to have that opinion. . . . But that doesn’t mean that that opinion is valid or that it should be part of our modern discourse. . . .”

(Can you guess where Justin/Riley is going with this?)

“Because I think we can all accept . . . that the Earth is not flat, the Earth is round. We live in a solar system, we orbit around the sun. And these are just basic facts that we have to accept because we know them to be true there’s a lot of scientific evidence. . . .”

(In addition to being a straw man — because no flat-earthers are actually arguing with Justin/Riley — he/“she” is also setting up a standard trick we can call the Progress Fallacy: “Here is this provably wrong idea that people held in the past, and therefore, all ideas from the past can be disregarded as invalid.” Except, of course, that the scientific method itself is based on very old ideas, dating to ancient Greece. Now, back to Justin/Riley and “modern discourse.”)

“Let’s take climate change, for example. There is a ton of scientific evidence for climate change, and yet there are still people who deny it, and we’re supposed to treat them like they have a valid argument, but they don’t, because the science is in and we know that climate change is happening. . . .”

(Except, of course, that the actual argument is about anthropogenic global warming [AGW], and it has been shown that the proponents of this claim have falsified “evidence” and disregarded alternative explanations for the observable changes in global temperatures. AGW proponents have engaged in fear-mongering and enlisted government authority to gain funding for themselves and to deny funding for their scientific critics. But please, Justin/Riley, continue to educate us.)

“Compromise is not always a good thing. One one side, we have people saying that LGBT-plus people deserve respect, should be treated equally under the law, and should be protected from discrimination. And on the other side, we have people saying that LGBT-plus should be denied their basic human rights and not be treated equally under the law.”

Here we arrive at the destination — the conclusion, the payoff — of Justin/Riley’s long and winding road of bad analogies. I’ve omitted, for the sake of brevity, the anti-vaccine analogy that Justin/Riley threw in as an example of invalid viewpoints that are not worthy to debate. You see the apples-and-oranges problem with going from (a) flat-Earth kooks, to (b) global warming, to (c) people who refuse to vaccinate their children, to (d) questions of law and policy regarding sexual behavior.

The preamble in Justin/Riley’s argument was a set-up for accusing conservatives of denying “basic human rights” to gay people. But what do these phrases mean? What does it mean, for example, to say that certain people, self-defined categorically by their sexual behavior or preferences, “deserve respect”? What does it mean to be “treated equally under the law”? What counts as “discrimination”? How is this offense defined, who is authorized to determine whether “discrimination” has occurred, and how shall this policy be enforced? These are not moot speculations, of course, because we know how advocates of soi-disant “basic human rights” operate — they file lawsuits, accusing people of illegal “discrimination,” in order to force people to do things they don’t want to do, e.g., employ “genderqueer” elementary school teachers:

A “transmasculine” teacher at an Oregon elementary school has been awarded $60,000 by her school district as compensation for harassment she claims to have suffered on the job, including being referred to by the wrong pronoun.
According to The Oregonian, Leo Soell was born a woman, but now prefers to identify as “transmasculine” and “genderqueer,” meaning she does not consider herself to be male or female . . .
The school conducted an internal investigation after Soell complained, but found no proof of harassment.
Eventually, Soell was able to cut a deal with the school to have her referred to by her preferred pronoun, “they,” but Soell said the harassment didn’t stop, so she finally hired an attorney and prepared to file an official complaint.
Oregon is a very friendly state for individuals who claim they have suffered discrimination based on gender identity. The state’s labor commissioner, Brad Avakian, forced a bakery to pay $135,000 to a lesbian couple they wouldn’t bake a cake for, and he has also compelled a bar owner to pay a whopping $400,000 to a group of transgender customers he tried to ban from his bar.
Eager to avoid meeting a similar fate, district officials agreed to pay Soell $60,000 in compensation for her emotional distress, and they also agreed to adopt a whole battery of new policies to make the district more transgender-friendly.

Now, ask yourself this: If the school officials had suspected that Brina Soell was a transmasculine genderqueer when she applied for the job, would they have hired her? But having once hired Brina, were school officials then obligated to play along with her gender-identity game when she changed her name to “Leo,” got her breasts amputated, and demanded to be referred to with the pronoun “they”?

We may be ignorant about “nuances of gender,” but we are not naïve as to how claims of “discrimination” operate in the real world. When people start blabbering about “basic human rights” and claiming they’re denied “equal treatment under the law,” what they’re really saying is, “Hand me that whip, so I can boss you around and make you do what I say.”

Declaring yourself a Victim of Social Injustice can be a pretty lucrative racket, if you can get a sharp lawyer and a friendly judge. Calling yourself a super queer transfeminine lesbian and a polyamorous, atheist, gender non-binary transwoman — well, Justin/Riley is a federal lawsuit just waiting to happen, isn’t he/“she”? For some reason, however, I’ve got a hunch that Preisdent Trump and Attorney General Jeff Sessions aren’t going to make the “basic human rights” of gender non-binary queer trans feminists a top priority at the Justice Department.

Anyway, Riley J. Dennis wants to give you some sex advice:

And some more sex advice:

And here, have some more sex advice:

Remember: Riley J. Dennis went to prestigious Whittier College and is an expert. You are ignorant and don’t know anything about sex, which is why he/“she” is educating people on the nuances of gender and sexuality. If you disagree with him/“her,” that’s because “you just don’t have a valid viewpoint and you’re not worthy of being debated.”

Riley J. Dennis has dedicated his/“her” life to insulting people — you’re ignorant if you disagree with him/“her” — and yet he/“she” is shocked to discover that people resent being lectured so insultingly.
