So I was 3,000 words into a book chapter about feminism and took a break. Someone called my attention to this:
Don’t know who the original source is for this asinine claim, but it’s been shared nearly 60,000 times on Tumblr, which tells me that many young fools actually believe this dangerous nonsense.
There is abundant research about the differences in male and female sex drives, even if ordinary common sense did not tell us so.
Long before scientists were able to demonstrate the influence of testosterone in male sexual behavior, the greater urgency of male sex drive was widely understood as a fact of human nature. Only the egalitarian ideology of feminism could cause anyone to believe that “girls want sex just as much as guys do.” This is simply not true, as anyone might discover if they cared about scientific evidence or, alternatively, if they would bother asking males about it.
Really, let any man recall how it was to be a teenage boy, caught in the overpowering grasp of that adolescent testosterone surge. Every teenage boy is a potential crime wave and only the most stringent discipline and social restraints can prevent him from running completely amok, wreaking havoc as a result of his chaotic impulses.
Feminists have spent so long trying to convince us males and females are “equal” — meaning that they are basically the same — that some people have apparently begun to believe this is really true, but it’s not. Anyone who makes feminism the basis of their choices is in for a rude awakening the first time they encounter the reality of human nature.
“A Lesbian Theory of the Penis” — that’s the best way to understand feminist beliefs about male sexuality. They begin by excluding from consideration anything a normal man might tell them about sex, and next exclude anything normal women might tell them about male sexual behavior, so that in the end what feminists claim to “know” about men and sex is just lesbian propaganda. Asking a feminist for advice about men is like asking a Nazi for advice on how to get along with Jews.
Military Reform: A Key @GOP 2016 Issue
Posted on | December 22, 2014 | 41 Comments

I left Active Duty, inter alia, because I was disgusted by seeing uniformed officers held to a higher standard of conduct than their Commander-in-Chief, Monica Lewinsky’s ex-boyfriend.
Contempt for #OccupyResoluteDesk, while not as great a driver, did not enhance my interest in supporting the Reserves past the bare minimum.
Obama is an unpopular president in the eyes of the men and women in uniform. Yet his two-term administration is etching a deep imprint on the culture inside the armed forces. As commander in chief, he will leave behind a legacy that will shape the Pentagon’s personnel policies and the social customs of rank-and-file troops for decades to come.
There is a massive opportunity for the GOP in 2016 to:
- Define a coherent foreign policy
- Restore the country to a regular budgeting process
- Review the force structure requirements of the foreign policy
- Offload all the idiotic social engineering stierscheisse, and instead hone our military based upon the organizing principle of lethality.
I’m confident that our military culture will recover from the cloud of Progressive flatus with amazing speed.

Mandatory Reading: “Collectivism and the Presumption of Guilt”
Posted on | December 22, 2014 | 22 Comments
by Smitty
Go over and read this excellent piece by Hayward in full. A taste (emphasis original):
This presumption of guilt is absolutely crucial to collectivism. The Left must teach its subjects to think of themselves as criminals. That’s the only way law-abiding people will endure levels of coercive power that would normally require specific accusations, a fair trial, and the possibility of appeals. Social-justice “crimes” can be prosecuted without any of those things. There is no appeal from the sentence, and no statute of limitations on the crimes, as any left-winger who thinks today’s American citizens need to suffer for the historical offense of slavery will be happy to explain to you. There’s no evidence you can present in your defense, for the Left has read your mind, and knows better than you what demons lurk in its recesses.
This is one reason the Left dislikes the trappings of constitutional law and order.
Our recovery from Progressivism is going to hinge upon restoring the distinction between theological guilt, “All have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” and legal guilt, which still requires due process.
It’s almost as if Progress is about substituting government for God. . .

Cop-Hater Kills Two Cops in Brooklyn Ambush; NY Times Obfuscates Motive
Posted on | December 21, 2014 | 187 Comments
Michelle Malkin: “Sickos on the Left have been stoking hatred against cops for months now in the wake of Ferguson and explicitly calling for their murder.” They finally got what they wanted Saturday when a cop-hater named Ismaaiyl Abdulah Brinsley shot his ex-girlfriend near Baltimore, posted anti-cop messages on social media and drove to New York where he murdered two NYPD officers in an ambush in Bedford-Stuyvesant. The cop-killer then killed himself.
The killer participated in anti-police protests and, in his social media messages, referenced both the death of Michael Brown in Ferguson and the death of Eric Garner in New York. However, Weasel Zippers points out that the New York Times is attempting to obscure Brinsley’s motive by depicting him as “random crazy.” Liberals never accept responsibility for the evil results of liberalism, because the whole point of liberalism is the evasion of personal responsibility.
