Why aren't more people, men especially, shocked and outraged

79. I think you're right, my OP

was poorly worded, for starters, and I hadn't put as much thought into it as I should have. I think TreasonousBastard did a pretty good job upthread of stating what SHOULD have been my OP, assuming it needed it's own thread at all. Ah well.

I did post on that "Rad Fem" takedown thread, and didn't get much by way of any response, which contributed to my posting this OP. Now I'm debating whether to take this whole thread down and chalk it up to a learning experience.

Also, and I should have said this as well, that OP not only pissed me off--in terms of it being yet another let's bash on the feminists post--but it also bugged me because of the piling on. I tried reading that blog, and gave up. Mostly, it made me sad. It reminded me, as you say, of the kind of word salad you might hear from someone with a significant mental illness. I have friends who are brain injured, and one of them in particular has a tendency to go off on these weird verbal jags that can also be quite disturbing, if you didn't know his problems. If you wrote it all down and posted it as a blog, it might read something like that "RadFem." And here was an entire thread, with hundreds of replies, basically piling on and either attacking her or ridiculing her. I'm kinda beat right now, but eventually I think I'll go back to the thread and post this thought, for what it's worth.

Anyway, thanks for your reply. A couple of folks replying here have really been instructive to me. Like I say, a learning experience.

Best wishes.
