And so we have arrived, in the Brett Kavanaugh affair, the inevitable and ultimate apotheosis of #MeToo – the vilification of men qua men. Now, one accusation alone – no matter how unsubstantiated and uncorroborated – is enough to ruin a man’s reputation, nullify his accomplishments and erase his opportunities...for life.

Really? White Males? Try a required mix (qualified or not) of mixed races, male and female. White is the newly identified, but long known minority among the group IMO.

the wise and time-tested morality of the puritans

The actual Puritans really get a bum rap. Read David Hackett Fischer's wonderful book Albion's Seed:Four British Folkways in America (America: a cultural history)

The Puritans were concerned about how a society hangs together. They believed in God, but also believed in marital happiness (including sex), believed in drinking beer, invented and played baseball, etc. See Massachusetts Sport Ways: The Puritan Idea of “Lawful Recreation”

That does not hold true today. There are many court cases already for rape within marriage, consent, or lack thereof in the marriage bed, is held under close scrutiny. Sad but true.

Feminists: Any woman who is less than completely satisfied with a sexual encounter has been raped — even if she doesn’t become dissatisfied until days, weeks, months or years afterwards. It is not possible for women to have bad or regrettable sex as women are incapable of poor judgement in sexual matters. The only possible explanation is rape and that should be the default legal position of the State.

Having children is certainly the primary joy in my life. One in college, one in grad school. Both are good kids.

If I were young, I would absolutely have nothing to do with dating. I would close that off and just realize that marriage and children were too dangerous.

I’d end up living a life with more money in my pocket — but less joy.

Or there is option #4 that a lot of men already began figuring out years ago: just don’t have anything to do with women nowadays unless they are your blood relatives or you absolutely can’t avoid them.

Those rules won’t last past the first time someone sues over them and they work their way up the courts.

Exactly. Register as a democrat and vote early and often for leftist candidates and march for abortion rights. That should put any man in good standing with the feminazis.

Never ever reach for a position in life that a feminist wants too. She will end you, regardless of her qualifications for the position.

One of the due process items that everyone has overlooked since it happened is “Being Able to Face Your Accuser in a Court of Law(or any other kangaroo court assembled to pass judgement)”...including HOA’s!

In my work I’ve been asked numerous times to travel with female work colleagues in the past 10+ years. Orientation, mentoring, training. I’ve done so as asked with never a problem.

But that is over, never again will I do it. Never.

The rule is “you are guilty. Shut up”

Find a single HR professional or company general counsel who would take issue with such a refusal in the private sector?

No.

New Rules for Most Men

Of course, there are special exemptions for Leftists, for example.

Have one of your eyes and one of your ears modified so you have continual audio and video capture.

Fourth possibility: reject all smears. Reject the “Believe Women” protocol.

If the accusation is not accompanied by enough evidence to accomplish a conviction in a court of law, and the woman had ANY conceivable motive to want to hurt the man, then don’t believe her.

abolish ice

What? Just because Brett Kavanaugh supposedly threw some ice on someone 33 years ago?

Men need to get a “body cam”, like the police wear, to video their every move, and record their every utterance; taking it off only in the safe confines of their homes, at bedtime.

As dems “weaponize” women, it’s time to change the rules of chivalry and stand up for ourselves.

I’m glad to be 73, and out of the dating scene.

‘Kavanaugh the Catholic is being compelled to demonstrate the truth of Luther’s words’

so if he were Protestant, he wouldn’t be having this issue...?
