A male backlash against #MeToo is brewing
NY Post ^ | February 3, 2018 | Kyle Smith

Men are scared, and feminists are delighted. But the urge to call out and punish male sexual transgression is bound to clash with an inescapable truth: We’re all in this together, men and women. Consider what’s happening in the capital of Florida. Female staffers and lobbyists have found “many male legislators will no longer meet with them privately,” reported The Miami Herald. “I had a senator say, ‘I need my aide here in the room because I need a chaperone,’ ” lobbyist Jennifer Green told the paper. “I said, ‘Senator, why do you need a chaperone? . . . Do you feel uncomfortable around me?’ ‘Well,’ he said, ‘anyone can say anything with the door shut.’ ”

In the “real” world the sexual harassment laws have been in place for years. And we males have gotten along just fine.

If politicians and movie producers have to live in our world, too bad for them.

The late 60s were the era of Free Love. I confess. I indulged.

Men should start a movement “Not me”. They should refuse to date any liberal, feminist or democrat. They should make them sign an agreement if they want to date. I know many feminists don’t date because they hate men so much, but others might rethink they’re beliefs.

Beta males are part of the enemy’s strategy.
Snowflakes aren’t a chance phenomenon.

My doctors always have a nurse in the room. I thought that was standard practice

In NY State, it's the law, and has been forever. That's where I trained, and I still do it.

It's not the law in a lot of other places, so it's relatively uncommon AFAIK.

We can walk and chew gum at the same time.

What can you, personally, do about the “Deep State”?

What can you, personally, do about the “War Against Men”?

You do what you can. Let others do what they can. The “war” isn’t against the Deep State or against the Feminazis. The war is against cultural rot. There are many battles; some can be fought in parallel.

“Of course, the best defense is to not hire any female”

That takes longer to show up in the stats, but no doubt is already at work.

The higher the risks with hiring a woman, the less they are worth.

Of course, the best defense is to not hire any female congressional aids to begin with.

Agreed, best defense is to stop hiring women.

Watch for a third force to emerge post Superbowl...maybe during Superbowl.

Dozens of Philadelphia Eagles are born again Christians and very open in their testimony to their Lord Jesus Christ. What currently is mostly seen only on TBN-Trinity Broadcasting Network may soon be seen on other networks.

And MGTOW grows. “Men need women like birds need anchors.” Woke!

The proggies’ unintended consequences are continually amusing.

Elsewhere, I’ve read that as “should be named #MeTooFat”.

An important point at the end of the article:

"He was an Oxford don and so had power over me . . . But I also had power over him — power sufficient to cause a venerable don to make a perfect fool of himself at a Christmas party. Unsurprisingly, I loved having that power.”

It's a two-way street - but feminists want to cut it down to a one-lane road.
