In this column I pose questions and raise issues. I don't always agree with the conclusion, implied or stated. The purpose is to put a slightly different spin on each item and to promote discussion.

  • In the pop feminist paradigm, women are the master race.

  • People addicted to instant gratification are easily manipulated.

  • We are replacing wisdom with pragmatism, determination with domination, and reasonable doubt with plausible deniability.

  • Without tragedy, there is no heroism; with no mountains, there are no dreams.

  • What's the difference between music downloaded from the Internet, and music taped from a radio broadcast?

  • It's time to take the animal rights movement to the animals - carnivores must learn to eat veggies; no more preying on herbivores.

  • Most monsters are created.

  • Some people argue the American government should make reparations to the descendants of the black victims of the Tulsa race riot. (None seem concerned with the white victims.) "There is no statute of limitations on moral obligations," they say. Good point. So, when can we expect England to make reparations to the Scots? When will Rome make reparations to the British? When will the Moors make reparations to the Sicilians? And when will Americans (White, Black and Asian) make reparations to the American Indians?

  • Good guys get smacked.

  • An affectionate woman is a treasure hard to find.

  • Why is America letting old people from other countries move to the U.S. and go right onto welfare and social security?

  • Maybe lawyers as a whole would have a better reputation if so many of them were not bullies.

  • The most successful salespeople are often the best liars.

  • Pop feminists said women would do a better job of running the world than the posturing teen age boys in charge; unfortunately, many women seem eager to prove they are posturing teenagers, too.

  • In movies and romance novels, women love shy guys. In movies and romance novels.

  • In my experience, people from more liberal or socialist-leaning countries tend to be far less generous and more obsessed with hanging onto what's theirs than those from more conservative or capitalist-leaning countries.

  • While Ever After was celebrated as a feminist statement, the thing most galling to pop feminists is that the men they most hate are those who celebrated the film as an equalitarian statement.

  • Like all social organizations, tribalism is comprised of two fundamental elements: form and function. As nationalism has increasingly dominated the functions of society at all levels, it has left the form of tribal subcultures strewn across the landscape liked beached whales rotting in the wind. As the rot slowly consumes the substance, all that remains are gangs of egos clustered together like shards of broken glass, brittle and hard, flashy and ultimately destined to vanish in dunes of industrial sand.

  • Next time a woman tells you, "Let's just be friends," smile and politely reply, "No thanks, I already have enough friends."

  • The bright side to events such as V-Day, which promote suspicion and hatred of men, is women who are involved in them are letting us know not to waste time on them so we can focus our romantic time and attention on women who value love more than hate, tolerance more than anger, and life more than death.

  • Based on a survey of several thousand men over the past 7 years, we estimate when sexual harassment is accurately defined between 67% and 93% of all men are sexually harassed in the workplace.

  • Much is made of the "first" or "earliest" interracial marriages in America between whites and blacks, but, whether black or white, the mainstream still ignores the marriages between settlers and American Indians. As if they didn't count.

  • Maybe the only way to put an end to antimale bigotry in America is to get so many single women pregnant and on welfare, and so many men in prison that the entire system collapses. The bigger question, however, is what then? What do we replace it with?

  • The vulgarization of sex, whether in a junior high school boy's locker room or at a pop feminist hatefest, begins with harm and ends in hate. Before we can heal the hate, we must stop the harm.

  • Pop feminists claim women notice all the little things while men do not. Maybe that's because so many women choose men who don't notice the little things.

  • As Hitler created myths about Jews to incite violence and hatred against them, so the New Rage women create myths about men to incite (legal, political, social and economic) violence and hatred against men.

  • When men make a political statement about gender, they use slogans like Proud to be Male. When pop feminists want to make a similar statement, they use slogans like I'm all out of estrogen and I've got a gun.
