“The worst mistake you can make about Sky News and David Leyonhjelm’ssmear of Sarah Hanson-Young is to think it was some sort of inadvertent ‘line crossing’, that a boundary had been overstepped in a robust exchange of ideas. Both Leyonhjelm and Sky News are in the same business, of selling the status of victimhood to aggrieved elites, and dressing it up as ideology to disguise the naked self-interest that motivates it.”

In thinking of the word "men",

"Man", "men", "some men", "most men" or "all men". Hanson-Young stated "men" but of course the extremists have stretched it to the endth tidbit.

Still stereotyping. Her desire to throw an insult at Men in general shows a bias, a prejudice and a sexist attitude.

I'm no Rapist or Murderer. Neither are 99.9 percent of the Male population.

Maybe, but in the past having worked over the years as a junior and later a senior officer on establishments with up to 100 personnel working close together in stressful conditions the typical behavior (and common discussion) of many more senior male members was disgusting.

A very high percentage of female members back then departed after suffering breakdowns from innuendo and harrasement. I can well imagine the instinctive cultural male authoritarianism around the halls of parliament.

I take my hat off to Sarah for trying to level the playing field. And I'm a bloke.

Yep, we can't blame it all on the feminists.

Police, army and other male dominated workplaces have been sexists for a long time. Time they learned a few manners.

Well the saga rolls on.

He has got a point, when he says anyone can say what they like, as long as it is directed at a man.
The same goes for lots of sections of our society, there are areas where it is taboo to say anything derogatory, yet their counterpart is free game.

I guess you haven't seen the vid of Virginia Trioli wiping the floor with David L? I'm still looking for it myself, but only get the one where she failed to bully him into saying what she wanted him to say.

 

[Tisme]

Here's the unedited version of wayneL's post. Yep she says ALL men have control issues and should stop acting like "morons" and "pigs" as a result of Eurydice Dixon's death. The left really annoy me with how they always play the victim card after they are caught out in the wrong.

So men are sexist, but women aren't when they talk about men, even going so far to insult individual men by lumping them into a tribal pot.

 

[Tisme]

Talking about violent crimes, here's one in today's paper.

They'll find a male line manager to blame

The thing that the political left fail to mention is the sexual objectification of men by women. Women I know claim women are worse than men, only less obvious.

....and that is without the overt sexual display... makeup and thrusting breasts.

I am not advocating for women to cover up, but an awareness of the sometimes mixed messages and duplicitous debate.

Absolutely. Some women like sexualising themselves at every opportunity. Low cut and short dresses, short shorts etc. They like to appeal to men's lust but then raise a stink if the lust goes a bit far.

The media like it too and so it gets spread.

And the huge money making fashion industry. Women have become an object to please men and appear to be for the taking.

And in all this we are breaching evolutionary instinct, women were happy controlling the cave whilst the men loved the hunt. Somehow, like halting the birthrate we need to address these imbalances within our psychie.

 

[SirRumpole]

One example of gratuitous sexualisation.

You make it sound as though,men are dressing them up, putting them on the street and then hunting them down.
Women have become an object to please men? what in olden days they didn't please men?

I agree, but at the moment, it appears the door only swings one way.
We now want women to control the cave(home) and go out hunting(affirmative action in job placement).

There is one thing for sure, the social engineering going on at the moment, is causing more problems than it is fixing. IMO

Yeh, more driven by the fashion industry I suppose.

And men please women also.
