"I consider you to be immature,"

You wouldn't be the first. But then, the first and second defensive weapons in your intellectual arsenal seems to be the ad hominem attack and the temper tantrum.

"insincere,"

Nah... I meant every word.

"and intellectually pornographic."

Interesting concept.

"Some of the other writers and I at the sites I am paied to write for are bitter enemies. So be it."

I'm not your enemy. Just a critic, regardless of your opinion of me.

"If you want to read what I have written with seriousness, so be it. If you don't like what I have to say, tough. It's a cruel world. I wasn't put on this earth to be required to please you or anybody else.

Your temper tantrums belie that statement.

"I don't believe you are either inclined or qualified to read my material."

Wrong. When you first referenced it in this thread, I was quite inclined - else I woudn't have bothered to look it up. Difficult or complicated subject matter doesn't scare me away. But common sense and fifty years of history have pretty put the lie to theories blaming men-behaving-badly or the so-called "playboy philosophy" for the damage done by radical feminism.

"You have an agenda of some kind which makes you a gadfly,

I'll take that as a compliment. In case you haven't figured it out, I take exception to your theory that all men are to blame for all social problems, with women painted as victims even when they're feminizing little boys.

"which I suspect is your mission in life.

No, it's just a passion. My mission is to keep my son out of the hands of those who would do him harm, in particular, feminist ideologues. BTW, your interminable tracts on the "war between the sexes" which places all social ills at the feet of all men would qualify you as one of those feminist ideologues.

If you had read the God damned series, which you haven't, you would have come to the point where it was said:

"Perhaps the description thus far has made it seem as though women are helpless souls who are preyed upon by men and society. However, they made their own contribution and brought much of it on themselves."

From thence I go into a 50 page critique of contemporary women and the women's movement, including even the move by contempory liberated women psychotherapists to facilitate and support the condition of homosexuality in men to weaken and humiliate men. Do you think I'm too God damned dumb so as not to know men, and now boys, are being psychologically castrated by recent social and political movements?

Feminists hate my guts.

You really out to read what I have written instead of your own premature reactions to part of what I have written.

I shoud probably just tell you to go phssst yourself, but there are other people involved her.

Let me attempt, with some sense of futility, to explain some things. In the early 80s a mag editor who knew my reputation contacted me and asked me to do a short series for them for what would today be $14,000- $18,000. I got into the series. There was an argument at the mag with people quitting and scattered to the winds. The series was cancelled in midstream although I did get paid six or eight thousand dollars for what I had done. Such is the way of the world.

The internet essay mewspaper paper I worked for until recently approached me because of certain material I had written. Several months back there was a bitter desagreement within the organization and a slit in which I was forced to choose between one side or the ither. I went with my editor to the present site at zolatimes2. The old publication owes me a consoderable amount of money and refuses to pay. For this reason, I am reluctant to send people there, although no new work has been, and is being, published there, by anybody. My old material is there. at plain aolatimes.com . You may find the format easier to read and to locate information. I'm in the writer's index. The new site is zolatimes2.com.
