I’m not particularly bandwagon prone. I’m what I am, for better or worse.

If the feminist men—the men who proudly declare their progressive politics..

Hate to break it to her, but... those aren't men.

I’m sorry, only God has the right to parade around as “I am what I am.”

You have essence of Satan yet in your soul.

One of my sons was hurt by my words

ONE of her sons? Only one? The lady's not giving herself enough credit.

However, she's done them a favor. They now know they can never ever please their mother, no matter what they do, and it's a waste of time to keep trying.

Granted, that was very right for her to be honest.

These people just cannot accept that God made men a certain way and woman a certain way. This terrible woman, like many un-godly leftists, is trying to play god, thinking she can make her sons into something they were never meant to be, more woman-like.

I feel sorry for her kids as I’ve known someone that was brought up in a family culture like that. He is still very messed up to this day. Hopefully her sons will be able to find a way to escape that and be how God intended them to be.

There you go again, speaking for God. You really should stop. I know I’m going to stop giving you a pretext vis a vis this weird exchange.

By the way, have you seen the Dr. Jordan Peterson lecture on post-modernism and how he intends to fight it? You might find it interesting. On my links page.

The most devastating wounds in life are usually self-inflicted. The author is very much the author of her own situation and seems to only be about half done.

And, for what it may be worth.... men should be seen as potentially dangerous. That is how we are supposed to be.

Potential best friend.
Potential worst enemy.

..He is angry at me now, although he won’t admit that either, and his anger led him to conservative websites and YouTube channels; places where he can surround himself ..

And it also is crystal clear that you are playing rope a dope with God, as so many Christianesque people do.

I didn’t even feel the need to ask why she didn’t have a husband anymore.

Yeah but, what kind of man would abandon his sons to this? Sad.

“rape culture” is a myth within academia and from academia sold to the media and reported as an epidemic of rape.

It used and depended on the media’s ability to take any number of anecdotal case, some of which proved to be false accusations and magnify them, for political purposes into an epidemic of rape. Having sold that media successfully to a critical mass of the sheeple, in it was then further sold and magnified as a an embedded systemic aspect of the entire “culture” requiring mass “re-education” of every woman, that they are “victims” and every male that they are gentle because their entire gender is guilty.

Meanwhile, the actual incidences of sexual abuse that is growing in the number of actual occurrences annually is older women, often teachers, having sexual relations with under age boys. THAT should have been what the “concerned mother” was writing about.

My parents were the greatest parents anyone could hope for in so many ways. Looking back one of the best things they ever did for me was correct me when I got dramatic about something. I was not told my feelings did not matter, in fact I was comforted by them when it was needed. What they did impress upon me though was that “very few people in this world care about your feelings” meaning keep all that to yourself unless you are with someone that cares enough about you to care about your feelings.

In general I was taught feelings were private matters. All this sharing feelings is inappropriate to me and some have allowed their feelings to take over their lives, basing everything else on their feelings or some other person’s feelings. We were not raised to hurt the feelings of other people, no- we were to be aware of not doing that. We were just not raised to believe our feelings would or should matter to everyone or above other things in our lives even to us. Also we were warned not to take action based on feelings, but to carefully consider many things before taking meaningful action.

“I can’t understand what this person is writing about. What is she saying?”

This woman is upset that no matter how hard she looks she cannot find a man who doesnt hate women. Her standards are simply so high that no man in the world can meet them. I think this indicates a paranoid mentality.
What she is also saying is that she has tried to raise her sons so that THEY could meet her standards but has failed. By saying her sons are not “safe” she means that given the opportunity they would take sexual advantage of a helpless woman. In other words they would be rapists. IMO her standard for a “safe” man is one who has had his male organ removed or preferably never had one to begin with.
