>> A case example of how feminism and its white knight defenders, social conservatives included, have turned elite Universities into hotbeds of anti-male hysteria.
You’re blaming social conservatives for feminism? I’m not sure I’ve seen many social conservative come to the defense of feminism.

Social conservatives don’t necessarily defend political feminism in a direct way. What they do is often act in a manner that suggests that women are not to be treated equally, while yoking men to an unjust system because they believe in an antiquated vision of female virtue, one that is not only not true now but was probably never so.
Social conservatives often act in support of legislation that treats women by a different standard, granting them, in effect, privileges beyond a man and often accepting the orthodoxy of feminist social research when it comes to abuse, custody and family law, divorce law, etc. It is also a failure to recognize the sexual power and drive of women and thus looks at men as more culpable for any act that may cross some kind of line, be it moral or legal.
There are exceptions amongst SoCons but not nearly enough. If SoCons are intent on restoring traditional roles (most aren’t nearly as strong in their support of that as they think) then they must understand that a patriarchal system in the old style is the only way that will happen and enabling feminism at any level is a recipe for the kind of society divided against itself that we currently face. (BTW, I’m not SoCon and I believe in the legal equality of men and women, i just want to end chivalry as a concept by which we abide, as it is highly unlikely that we will be going back to arranged marriages, marrying off girls at 14, etc.)
