Is it possible to love and respect women while downplaying the assaults on them? I appreciate you could have had difficulty expressing yourself, but you've described these issues as silly here before. You compare some atrocity committed by the 'enemies' (for want of a better word) you campaign against with one of the things you consider trivial that your campaigning rivals (I need to brush up on my vocabulary) complain about. But that's not like with like. For example, you seem to have "nothing to say" about the sexual assault, rape and murder of women on a wide scale throughout the civilized world. Except that attempts to change the culture from which these abuses arise are...a bit silly. You of course also, quite rightly, attempt to change the culture in your favour - eg by challenging the media. Don't you see there is symmetry here? At least, if you indeed 'respect women'. Activists sitting around blaming each other reminds me of poor people sitting around blaming the immigrants. On a constructive note, wouldn't it be much better if the ice cream wars (http://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2014/03/deadly-glasgow-ice-cream-wars/) between feminists and lefties - neither group being very well-defined- could be called off, and both groups could recognize each other's legitimate grievances? They do after all have much in common and could boost each other's levels of support no end.
