No, it's yours because you live in a world of delusion. You think of the
world as men vs. women. Get out of the sandbox and grow the **** up.

Prove that. Although anti-feminist, I'm no bigot, and have never
posted anything racist.

i.e., yours.

You total moron! Are you saying that over the last 30 years there have
been no female vs men issues??? And that those issues haven't taken
center stage for millions of people? Jesus, talk about delusion.

Aw, is you jealous or someding?

Anyway, you're wrong. The overwhelming number of protangonists in movies
are men not women. It's been my experience that guys aren't that interested
in what women do other than stay faithful and do their part (that's the
majority of reasonable guys).

conclusion.

Yeah, you do think in terms of men vs. women. EVERYTHING you've posted is

Can't you see how totally juvenile your short responses are? ;)

It is, however, very much true, that I've seen many many bigots cross the
line of sexists AND racists. Yet, I have met racists who are not sexist and
vice versa.

I don't think men (generally speaking) have been "against" women in the
past. I just think they were clueless and thought they were supposed to
rule. Religion teaches us that and we ALL evolved from brutish socieites.
We are not naturally good or bad rulers (men, if you can't keep up).
Gender isn't a prerequisite for rulership/leadership.

Feminism (not every feminist, mind you) is not anti-male. To fight for
freedoms denied to them is not, by necessity, anti male. DUH I guess all
black people fighting for civil rights were and are anti-white? You sure
are pitiful in your logic.

Is the lowlife upset. You're stretching to make a point out of movies
(which, dumbo, are on TV) and advertisement. The ultimate issue is who

Whoa! "millions of people"! WOW---you mean those issues might affect
as much as 1% of the worlds population! Notify the media! Call a press
conference! Buy an hour of prime time TV to get people's attention!
