Agenda, much?

[Malificence]

I don't usually wander onto the MN facebook page but I was pretty horrified to find what looks very much like an MRA agenda posted on there.
I'm trying very hard to see what relevance the photo used for their site has regarding the voices of unheard children. Looks more like how they would like to see their women to me.

isn't that just a typically manipulative way of conversing. We must be unenligtened, thick, unable to think properly if we don't agree with their aims and their ideas. Probably we are all ugly lesbians too.

That is the MN page btw.

This has a lovely letter from Mr O'Connor.

You know someone has an agenda when they sadly shake their heads at others 'not wanting to be enlightened' because they disagree with your agenda enlightening ways.

Wow Puffin.

If MNHQ have any doubt about the misogyny at the heart of the organisation I hope they note O'Connor's use of a four-letter word in that link. What a vile man he must be to write that.

yuk

the "not so Juicy Lucy"

the language he uses about women is foul, and he uses every opportunity to bring them down to his own level

I liked the response from Jonathon

some of the rest of them want to take her down to "lizard" and make desperately stupid and ignorant "puns" on her name

the measure of these men, eh ?

WTF? Been away with work and this is the first chance I've had to check back and I am at this thread.

I've had my first post deleted in 4 years of posting. Even though all I said was the idea that the government was involved in a conspiracy theory to destroy the family in order to hurt men was "a load of crock".

I accept the reply from MNHQ about that, but I don't think the freedom of speech and right to an opinion argument really holds. If anything is considered even slightly to encroach on racism, for example, it is unacceptable. Not so sexism it seems. In the eyes of the law free speech applies only in as far as it doesn't incite hatred against vulnerable groups. Women are a vulnerable group. Pity we can't adopt the same approach here.

Bye then

Don't let the door hit you...

It's true, the woman haters do dominate the rest of the internet, and the whole world really. It must give them a nice warm feeling to know they can bully women and children with impunity, even here.

half wits abound

a blog ?

spare us the drivel

I do hope that little rant gets deleted. I got deleted three times last week for suggesting someone was a bigot. That was a disability rights discussion though...

Complainants and whingers begging for help? Someone please tell me he isn't talking about victims of dv, before I blow a gasket.....

MNHQ...there's your chance, dudes

do the right thing

I would have thought that 97% of children live with their mothers after a parental split because that's the best place for them and because their mothers have probably done 97% of the childcare.

Can't we just delete them for writing reams of nonsensical tedious crap? Please?

And for never being witty or funny or interesting or any of the other things that the average MNer strives to be at least some of the time.

On that basis alone, the above post could go up in a puff of smoke.

I wanted to report one earlier for historical nonsensicality because he was going on about someone called Emily Pankhurst.

Emmeline Pankhurst? Emily Wilding Davison? Who knows?

a new reason

deleted for being simply tedious

I posted something like this on t'other thread but...

Nadine (on f4j) has just deleted and banned someone for the following reasons

"XXXX we have terms and conditions on this page and you have violated them hence the reason you are now banned. You are trying to join in a debate of which you are either being deliberately goading or you are just simply devoid of the facts . This page is for people who support both parents and want both parents to be treated equally. We are not about degrading mothers unlike some women's forum where men are fair game"

Please could we adopt the bit in bold?

Seems like a good idea to me. Gotta keep standards up somehow.
