I love watching men define misogyny
It's so handy when we women-folk don't have to worry our pretty little heads over these kinds of things. We can just let the men handle it.

1. Indeed, it makes life a lot easier for everyone.
Argh.

Barf.

2. The definitions are always a big song and dance
designed to specifically exclude anything they and their friends might do.

You're guaranteed to be innocent when you get to decide what makes someone guilty. And, conveniently, there's no need for soul searching, empathy, or taking responsibility.

3. It's their lack of empathy which is most appalling (and obvious) to me.
YUCK.

4. I almost prefer dealing with wingnuts to some 'liberal' men
At least the conservative misogynists don't expect me to qualify everything I say with "I know not all men are like that..." and don't expect brownie points for being pro-choice.

...they don't try to sing and dance their way around their sexism. They are rather proud of their views of women. You know EXACTLY where you stand with a man like that. I've found too many liberal men, especially those in the blogosphere to be unpredictable at best.

I'd rather deal with the guy wearing the pointy white hood than the one that hides his in the closet. ;)

"Alleged liberal" men are so sickening with their "I support liberty and justice for all, as long as it doesn't take anything away from me" bullshit. If they don't have to actually sacrifice anything for my freedom or admit their reign as the white, hetero male in charge isn't manifest destiny they're cool with tossing some rights my way. :eyes:
