Whenever you bring up men’s incarceration statistics, the left and feminists justify it with the fact that men commit the most crime. Fair point, no arguments here. But the moment you bring up black incarceration statistics, they stop using this same logic, being that blacks commit the most crime so of course more blacks are going to be incarcerated, and all of a sudden these people are victims of discrimination. Never expect honesty or consistency from a feminist.

Ello, friend! How're things? I kinda want your opinion on this, since you're my go-to political person. Where does the issue of single-parenthood rank on your list of current problems with the black community? And, how much (if at all) do you think the left's championing of things like social justice, and feminism, which basically seek to abolish the traditional family have contributed to the single parenthood issue? Thanks! Have a fantastical day, m8! Xoxo.

Hello! Thank you so much for the message! Things are quite well thank you :) It’s a huge problem. Broken families, the lack of black fathers and even black mothers is a disastrous epidemic and the attempts to legitimize it by the left and the demonization of the nuclear family and fathers coming from feminism is only worsening this sad reality. 

The U.S. has 25.8 percent of children being raised by a single parent, compared with an average of 14.9 percent across the other countries. Now consider 72 percent of black children are raised in a single parent household and 37 percent of these families live below the poverty line as there’s only one source of income, no balance or share of work and zero stability. Compare this to just the 8 percent of married black families who live in poverty which proves it’s not racism, it’s personal choices. Also consider black women terminate 450 babies for every 1000 born compared to white women terminate 121 for every 1000. How can you ever expect children to know the meaning of family and reap its benefits when black parents continue to shatter it, setting low standards and expectations. It proves if they held themselves to higher standards and accountability when choosing partners and creating children, things would be a lot different. 

One in every 10 black men in his thirties is in prison and black women are incarcerated at a rate four times higher, not because of racism but because they commit the large disproportionate amount of crime and murder which leads to kids growing up on the streets or searching for family structure within gangs. In 2012, white males were 38 percent of the population and committed 4,582 murders. That same year, black males were just 6.6 percent of the population but committed a staggering 5,531 murders. Every 6 months there are more blacks committing homicides than there were blacks lynched over the course of 80 years. The figures highlight a horrific truth that black racialists and white liberals routinely ignore: black Americans, young black males particularly, put themselves in close proximity to police officers by committing crime at rates sometimes five to 10 times higher than whites. This is a recipe for disaster. Black communities glorify and celebrate this thug and criminal culture so once again, if they held themselves to higher standards and accountability, things would be a lot different but no one wants to talk about this, it’s just easier to blame white people. 

The current welfare system discourages single mothers from establishing a stable two-parent household despite a portion of welfare funds allocated to promote this kind of family structure. This is because women who marry or maintain a home with the biological father of their children can face the reduction or loss of their benefits. In turn, children who grow up on welfare are more likely to grow up and be on welfare themselves, continuing the cycle. Daughters of single mothers are more likely to engage in early sexual behavior and become teen moms, which, in turn, makes them more likely to rely on welfare and their children less likely to grow up with their fathers.

Blacks see the nuclear family as a “white thing” and a broken family as a “black thing” so they fight against the nuclear family while trying to legitmize the broken family and feminism and the liberal left toe the line like good little pets. Look at BLM, even on their website, one of their official stated goals reads, “We are committed to disrupting the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement.” BLM fight against nuclear families as they see it as an oppressive white structure and then we have feminists fighting against nuclear families as they just hate their fathers (as well as wanting to get a pat on the head from minorities.)  

Feminists have sold us the idea that men are disposable and we’d be better off without them, women shouldn’t be enslaved to “the oppressive patriarchal norms of being mothers” when they could be having a lot more fun working 80 hours per week and going home to cats. They prevent father involvement  and father rights  because they can profit from it. There wouldn’t be the need of a vast network of charities, organizations, affirmative action and guaranteed paychecks if we were honest and stopped the ‘women have it worse off than men’ myth. 

Feminism needs gendered issues for their survival. Feminism doesn’t want you to know that women are about as likely to abuse their partner as men or that boys suffer similar rates of sexual abuse as girls (1 in 6 boys to 1 in 4 girls) or that thousands of men are being raped or that men are the greatest victims of violent crime because it would impact their funding. In order to maintain a steady flow of cash, they now seek to preserve their own existence by perpetuating myths and inventing problems instead of trying to solve the problems already existing, such as all of the above. Just like BLM and single black mothers, they along with feminism gain huge amounts of money and handouts from their “oppressors” by playing the victim card. 

Intact families, married mothers and especially stay-at-home-married-moms are feminism’s number one enemy. Feminism tells us that the differences between the sexes comes down to social conditioning but mother’s often laugh at this idea as they understand children better than bitter, childless, lonely morons. Psychologist Steven Pinker may have said it best: “It is said that there is a technical term for people who believe that little boys and little girls are born indistinguishable and are molded into their natures by parental socialization. The term is ‘childless.’” Married women also tend to vote conservative while unmarried women tend to vote liberal ( here and here). Liberal votes means more money for the feminist cause. And more feminism means more liberal votes. It’s not a coincidence that Obama created a White House Council on Women and Girls but refused to create a White House Council on Men and Boys. Also, married women are a lot happier. A recent survey revealed that unmarried and working mothers are less happy than married and non-working mothers and we all know feminism despises anything that makes us happy or anything that can be considered a “social norm.” 

Over the past few decades, feminism told women, “you can have it all,” emphasizing equal rights while minimizing equal responsibilities. Of course, no one can have it all, but “trade offs” doesn’t sell as well. And women can’t hear what men don’t say; men didn’t tell women that work is often mind-numbing and unfulfilling and they regret not being around for their wife and children but this is exactly what feminism strives for women. In order to dislodge homemaker wives from their families, feminism devalued their role (i.e. telling married women they’re half a person and they’re pathetic). Thinking men got the better deal, many stay-at-home moms were resentful, and divorce rates accelerated. Today, it’s women who ask for 7 out of 10 divorces (see here and here.) These moms then send inconsistent messages to their children; on the one hand they say they wouldn’t trade their kids for anything, but on the other hand they send the message that a career is more sustainable than having a family. The problem with these messages given to young children is that they erode the underlying beliefs necessary for a trusting and caring relationship to be built around, and just like the broken family in black communities, the cycle repeats and it will continue to repeat itself until we start to be honest. 

On the other side of this sad ledger are all the dads who have watched their marriages disintegrate into a series of alimony and child-support payments. In one long-term study, just 10 to 15 percent of men won in custody battles. The ones who win are usually the ones who can afford lawyers. Even then, many men end up feeling like they are spending their lives working for people who have turned against them and see him as nothing more than a cash machine. Some even go to prison for falling behind on child support payments . Feminists say to this, ‘Who cares? It’s men. Fuck them,’ all because they look at hot celeb moms being toted as “superwomen” who do it all and have it all so they try to be badass boss bitches, they sacrifice family for work because they are so desperate to be like men and it eventually leaves them feeling disappointed and depressed when they’re alone and tired and they realize they should have taken family more seriously. Feminism wants to be the new men of the world yet they don’t want any of the sacrifices, they don’t want to work hard or do the dirty and dangerous jobs and they don’t want to be challenged, they also don’t want to acknowledge the fact that being a man isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. 

Thank god we have people who still value and appreciate the rewards of family, marriage, children and stability, as well as law, hard work and education. If feminism or the black community don’t want to take it seriously, we’ll continue to keep the world spinning for them while they continue to try to destroy it and hate us for it.

Shame On You, Feminists

Feminists always fall back onto their favorite line, “Just because those women have it bad, it doesn’t mean we can’t talk about our own issues,” whenever you mention their failure to support the most oppressed women on Earth. 

Okay, fine, ignore them, since you insist let’s talk about “our own issues” then, shall we? Well I’m still waiting for a single feminist to condemn the Muslim men who kidnapped and lured the 1,400 young British girls in Rotherham and subjected them to rape using knives, rape with bottles and having their tongues nailed to tables while the police and government hid and ignored these horrific crimes, or is that still not a Western feminist issue? 

Okay cool, let’s ignore that too, but I’m still waiting for a single feminist to condemn the Muslim men who committed mass sexual assaults against young women in Cologne, Germany and Stockholm, Sweden which the police and media once again covered up. Still not a Western feminist issue? 

Hm. Well I’m still waiting for a single feminist to look at France and Sweden and condemn the no-go zones for women where women are forbidden from entering these migrant-heavy areas to stop them from being attacked from Muslim men and I’m still waiting for them to condemn the rapidly increasing rape numbers in areas with overflowing refugee intakes and I’m still waiting for them to condemn the fact women are now lying about the ethnicity of their rapist in fear of sounding racist. I guess none of these are “our issues.”

We get it, you don’t want to protect Islamic women being used as slaves and slingshot target practice in the Middle East, who are you to judge their culture, right? Besides, you have your own issues to worry about. But now you don’t even want to protect your own women from being subjected to the very rape culture, violence and oppression that you insist white men being the only perpetrators of? Shame on you, feminists.

If you have a look at the plethora of feminist websites that supposedly champion women, you’re far more likely to find pieces about fat-shaming a celebrity or celebrity nudes being leaked. The only problem we have here is though, Jennifer Lawrence can defend herself and fight her own battles, these women and children being raped and attacked cannot. They have no voice as they are being hidden and silenced in fear of rocking the multicultural boat and sounding “Islamophobic.” 

Once again, shame on you feminists for picking and choosing the women who you support based on the race and religion of their attacker.

The sweet irony when young, liberated, college-educated, first world feminists with equal rights and opportunity open tumblr from their iphones while safely tucked away in bed to tell men; “privilege is invisible to those who have it.”

Feminist’s Hero Is An Islamic Terrorist - What A Shock...

Key figure of the recent Women’s March and feminist’s beloved Muslim icon is a convicted Palestinian terrorist who will be deported from the United States after accepting a plea bargain that allows her to escape a prison sentence.

Rasmea Odeh will be stripped of her U.S citizenship and forced to leave the country and return to Jordan after failing to disclose to immigration authorities that she had been imprisoned in Israel for committing two terror attacks, proving how easy it has been for terrorists to sneak into the country.

As part of her plea bargain, however, Odeh won’t have to spend time in U.S prison or detention, according to a statement by the Rasmea Defense Committee.

The terrorist-turned-activist rose to prominence in the US following her involvement with the Women’s March and another recent high-profile frivolous feminist protest, “A Day Without A Woman”. In a letter in The Guardian that she co-authored with other activists, Odeh urged women worldwide to join in a “new wave of militant feminist struggle.”

But Odeh had a secret: she was convicted for her role in two terrorist attacks in Israel, including an attack on an Israeli supermarket in 1969 that killed two students shopping for groceries. She was released from prison in 1980 following a prisoner exchange.

Despite spending 10 years in prison for terrorism in Israel, she acquired U.S citizenship in 2004 by withholding information about her past. She later claimed that post-traumatic stress disorder caused her to lie on her application for citizenship.

College Feminists And Their Perversion Of Education

Feminists don’t like when people call themselves anti-feminists because feminists have been successful in equating feminism with support for equality, so to say you’re anti-feminist seems to suggest you are opposed to equality. But if feminism was ever about the equality of the sexes it emphatically no longer is. 

Feminism today is about special privileges and advantages for women and special exemptions from responsibility. So as a woman I am happy to go against feminism because I object to an ideology and practice that sets one standard for women supposedly because we are victims and one harshly punitive standard for men supposedly because they are privileged. 

I also object to anyone giving false information about my safety and odds of being raped and what I am and aren’t capable of. All fair minded people should object to unjust double standards. The hypocrisy and double standards of today’s feminist movement deserves to be exposed and denounced. 

There are many aspects that I find wrong with modern feminism but I usually tend to focus on feminism in college and the impact it is having on the young men and women on campus. My first concern is the irrationality that has overtaken academic feminism. It promotes the idea that women’s feelings are more important than objective reality or the search for truth. Victimhood and feelings now trumps fact, argument and debate. 

According to the Feminist Worldview women must never be made to feel unsafe, not just physically but emotionally and psychologically. They must never be “triggered” (their word, not mine) or made to think about things that challenge their view of themselves as permanently innocent victims. In a feminist world women are always to be believed and always be spoken of in sympathy. 

Although the idea of protecting women sounds admirable, it has become a potent weapon to intimidate anyone who fails to toe the party line on feminist’s wide range of ideologies. In colleges, feminist students believe they have the right to silence others who have opposing views because it makes them feel unsafe and at risk of triggering PTSD (again, their words, not mine.) 

Their silencing methods have spread all throughout colleges and universities and it is fast making it almost impossible for anyone to challenge any facet of feminist dogma which is a disaster for academic debate and learning. At Harvard Law, professors can’t even teach a class regarding rape or sexual assault laws as it's too much for students to emotionally cope with. 

They are actively shutting down speakers from attending campus and giving lectures on “controversial” topics and demonizing and attacking anyone who wishes to listen to an opposing perspective. Professors are receiving onslaughts of demands from students to be more accommodating to their feelings and if they don’t, the students - often successfully - protest for their resignation or to be fired. This is the regressive victimhood that feminism is successfully spreading every day.

My second concern is the near total disregard for the problems and experiences of male students. Men in colleges are told in no uncertain terms that they are uniquely guilty, prone to violence and responsible for war, inequality, rape, domestic violence, pedophilia, sexual harassment, “hetero-patriarchal-capitalistic domination” and all that is wrong in society. A young man entering into college today soon learns that he is a second class citizen in terms of having less rights, financial aid, freedom of inquiry and social support.

His female colleagues enter into a pro-woman campus culture where they gain these immediate advantages and see positive images of women, everything from advertising campaigns to course textbooks. Women students outnumber their male peers by a significant margin, they are taught by pro-feminist teachers dedicated to female success, they are provided with women only spaces with sometimes kindergarten-like surroundings.

They can take advantage of a plethora of special scholarships and bursaries for female students only, they can access feminist counselling if they so desire, they are encouraged to write feminist pieces, instructed on righteous indignation against the wrongs done to women throughout history along with a multitude of other ways they are told that their experiences and concerns matter at the college.

On the other hand a male student has a very different experience. He will likely have to attend a gender sensitivity and anti-violence workshop at the beginning of his first year where he will be lectured about his tendencies for sexual predation. If he is studying in the humanities or social sciences he faces the prospect of having most or even all of his classes taught from a prospective that denigrates the actions and achievements of men. 

Some or many of his teachers may often believe men too often dominate class discussions and should be discouraged from setting a competitive or adversarial tone. Particularly if the man challenges the feminist party line, he will often be told that his “maleness” prevents him from understanding or even having the right to speak. Women on the other hand are never told their “femaleness” prevents them from understanding or voicing an opinion of men.

A young man will learn that if he is allowed to speak without harsh criticism, he will need to soften his comments with apologetic admission of his male privilege. He will learn there are women only spaces where he must not intrude and female sensitivities that he must not offend. If he wishes to write a paper about men’s achievements or problems, it is likely he will be discouraged to do so or he will encounter an instructor who will not even believe in its legitimacy.

Although men are a minority in many of the courses at college he will not find any special scholarships or bursaries to redress the gender imbalance. If he tries to form a men’s issues club or wishes to meet with other men in a male only space to discuss his experiences as a man, he will be refused and told he is a misogynist, that his presence on campus is a threat to women and that the final word on gender has already been determined by feminists and he should shut up and listen to women’s accounts and demands. I wish any of this was even a slight exaggeration.

My third concern is that the result of the oversensitivity to women’s feelings and the indifference to men’s, a host of asymmetrical and unjust polices have been put in place on college campuses, many of which not only sideline men and restrict their right to self-expression but threaten their well-being and livelihoods. Most shockingly perhaps, a zero tolerance policy for what is called sexual misconduct of even the most trivial kinds such as a crude Facebook post or a sexual joke. 

A manic expansion of the understanding of what constitutes as rape now result in much public press beatings about male violence and harsh retribution against individual male students. Young men who engage in what they thought was consensual sex can find themselves accused of rape because of stringent and bizarre new affirmative consent polices. Instead of letting the police and courts deal with such accusations as they should, most colleges have set up in-house “judicial panels” to investigate charges of sexual assault or harassment. 

These panels are made up of members of the college community with no legal training. The accused is routinely denied the right to counsel, the right to know what evidence is brought against him, the right to know his accuser and other fundamental legal guarantees. These in-house panels have serious power. Men face expulsion, a permanent blotch on their academic records, indelible stains on their reputation and in many cases the end of their career dreams even when like in many high profile cases the accusations turns out to be complete fabrication. 

When lies about rape culture statistics are spread throughout campus and the demands that women must immediately be believed is not helping anybody. It’s almost inconceivable that this is happening now in a system that once prided itself on such principles as the presumption of innocence before guilt is proven. In the name of making the college seen as a safe space, we are absolving women of responsibility for their actions and severely compromising the legal rights and freedoms of men.

Where it will end is anybody’s guess but it is clear the feminist agenda is incompatible with the academic ideal of truth and the social ideal of justice for all, which means everyone. The obsession on campus with female trauma and male aggression, the constant harping on the need to promote women, pander to women and provide endless undeserved reparations. 

None of this should have a platform on college campuses today. College feminism is not only a distraction from the pursuit of education but is a serious impediment for mostly young women. They are coming out of university dumber and more pampered than when they went in. They are leaving in debt, completely unprepared for the real world, they are riddled with phobia and paranoia after being lied to about rape statistics and their oppression and they walk out with no skills or credible qualifications. It's about time our colleges took a stand against this corruption and infantilization.

[loudlytransparenttrash]

Gender gap activists don't talk about the far greater number of women choosing expensive private colleges and taking on more debt for bottom earning degrees. You can’t cry over self-inflicted inequality.

I'm a little confused, where did that 1 in 5 stat come from and why is it a myth? I've never managed to find anything disproving it, but I've also never found anything proving it, other than the obvious feminist and SJW propaganda

There’s usually two sources feminists will pull out in their attempt to legitimize this ridiculous myth. The first manipulation comes from this 2007 Campus Sexual Assault study. In the study itself, the researchers make it clear that the research consisted of students from just two universities. There are over 4,000 colleges and universities in the U.S and the research was confined to just two of them. Even within these two universities the response rate was low which the researchers admit to in the study. Everyone ignores these facts, choosing instead to apply this minuscule sample across all U.S. college campuses.

They also ignore the fact it was a basic online survey that took 15 minutes to complete, it was anonymous, no one’s claims were verified. Oh and the undergraduate women who participated were given Amazon gift cards.

Nineteen percent of women who responded to the survey said they had experienced some kind of sexual assault but when you look at the questions they were asked, such as if they have ever had sexual contact with someone while they were drunk or question them about events “that you think (but are not certain) happened,” then the reliability of this study to act as proof that 1 in 5 women are being raped kind of evaporates into thin air.

Even the study authors have since come out and explicitly stated that it is “inappropriate” to use their survey to make the claim that 1 in 5 women are being raped and it is not a nationally representative estimate of the prevalence of sexual assault. Yet it continues to be parroted by feminist organizations, women’s study professors and politicians who try to score brownie points by defending women in a make believe war against them.

Their other favorite source comes from a study in 2010 by the Centers for Disease Control. Newspapers everywhere carried the alarming news that this CDC Survey reported in 2010 approximately 1.3 million women were raped and an additional 12.7 million women and men were victims of sexual violence. The report was hailed for giving “a clear picture” of sexual violence in the United States.

The problem we have though is their figures go wildly against all official crime statistics. The Justice Department’s annual crime survey reports that there were about 188,000 thousand rapes and sexual assaults in 2010, the same year the CDC report was created. So where the fuck did the CDC find more than a million rapes and nearly 13 million victims of sexual violence that professional criminologists somehow overlooked in the same year?

Well the CDC found them by using a poorly constructed telephone survey with once again a low response rate and a non-representative sample of respondents. Not one single person interviewed was asked if they had been raped or sexually assaulted. Instead of such straightforward questions, the CDC determined whether the responses indicated sexual violation.

The 57% of women who the CDC projected as “rape victims” in 2010 said they experienced “alcohol or drug facilitated penetration.” What does that mean? Well any woman who had sex while intoxicated apparently constitutes rape. Participants were also asked if they had ever had sex because someone was “telling you lies” or “did you ever have sex because someone made promises about the future” or “did someone ever pressure you into sex by “showing they were unhappy?” Well any affirmative answers to these questions counted as sexual violence.

By once again using a non-representative samples and vaguely worded questions, the CDC yielded the 1 in 5 myth and mass sexual assault outcry, also known as “rape culture”. Feminists are just as manipulative and fake as their statistics. While rape is a horrific crime and rapists are rightfully despised and punished for the rest of their lives, there is simply no evidence of a national campus rape epidemic and there’s certainly no evidence that sexual violence is a “cultural norm” in 21st century America. The Middle East or North Africa on the other hand, rape is as normal as a Sunday roast.

To prevent rape and sexual assault, we need state of the art research. False and sensational statistics and claims are only getting in the way of effective action. Unfortunately, when it comes to research on sexual violence, exaggeration and bullshit aren’t the exception, they are the golden rule. If you hear about a study that shows epidemic levels of sexual violence against American women or college students or women in the military, you can be guaranteed the researchers used some version of the laughable defective CDC methodology.

This sneaky little method, known as advocacy research, allows you to easily manufacture a women’s crisis. But if you have a few brain cells floating around up there and you care about facts, you know it’s a feminist myth - all of it. It does nothing but trivializes the horrific pain and suffering of survivors and it sends valuable study and resources in the wrong direction.

Sexual violence is too serious of a matter for feminists to be hijacking it only to push a politically motivated agenda. And right now the media, politicians, rape culture activists, they are deeply invested in these fabricated and exaggerated numbers. We can only hope feminists will start taking themselves and their fight against real issues seriously again. I won’t be holding my breath.
