In this column I pose questions and raise issues. The purpose is to put a slightly different spin on each item, provoke thinking or give you ideas for how to respond to things. Think of them as "sound bite arguments."

  • Pro-Woman, Anti-Feminist, Pro-Liberty, Anti-statist.
  • The Mirriam-Webster dictionary defines feminism as "the theory of the political, economic, and social equality of the sexes," but actions speak louder than words, and by their actions feminists define it as a sexist, supremacist movement.
  • In the marketplace of love everybody has a shelf life, a fact feminists would deny.
  • A vicious circle: inflation reduced buying power by 30% since 2004 with no comensurate increase in wages, starving entry level workers, but a higher minimum wage would price many of them out of the jobs market.
  • Progressives of all political stripes freely admit to hate, and spread lies to destroy all who get in their way.
  • Feminists encourage women to be self-obsessed, but once their youth and beauty fade, it is their other interests that make them interesting.
  • The Obama Administration has been extremely good for the stock prices of gun companies.
  • Facts do not support the assertion that humans play a role in global warming but the efficiencies and low-to-no-pollution promised by low carbon footprint technologies offer profitable opportunities nonetheless.
  • Markets move when you're looking in the wrong direction.
  • Cold Fusion will do more to reduce our "carbon footprint" than all the other mitigations combined and yet there is almost no support for it from the proponents of anthropogenic global warming.
  • Americans should have the choice to use something besides Federal Reserve Notes for money.
  • Americans should have the choice whether to pay taxes.
  • The proof feminism is a scam is that feminists conned women into thinking work was glamorous.
  • To champion choices for women is not feminism. Feminists approve only certain choices for women and condemn women who make wrong choices. Fundamentally, feminism is a totalitarian, pro-government, anti-choice creed.
  • The more websites can do, the more features IT managers feel compelled to add and the worse websites get. Change for its own sake is stupid.
  • The labor participation rate is a more accurate measure of unemployment, and what it shows should make everybody very nervous.
  • College is right for some but a debt-trap for most.
  • Irritation is the father of invention, and inconvenience is its uncle.
  • In the revolving door of crony capitalism CEOs move from private sector to public back to private no matter how good or bad they are.
  • The solution to income inequality caused by government-induced market distortions is free enterprise.
  • By their actions feminists say that they do, indeed, hate men, if not individually, then as a class.
  • The nonsense about hairy armpits and bra burning lasted about 5 minutes but feminists keep it alive as a straw man.
  • Male interest in the female anatomy is neither sexist nor misogynist, and anybody who says otherwise is sick, sexist and a misandrist.
  • Feminism must portray male achievement as proof of sexism because it cannot survive without turning women into victims; in this, feminists have become what they claim to oppose: sexist.
  • Like all totalitarian thugs, feminists hate real freedom of choice.
  • On the internet nobody knows if you're a feminist troll pretending to be an abusive man.
  • Anybody who subscribes to the dictionary definition of feminism should find real life feminism offensive.
  • Do feminists defend and promote sex selection abortion, which targets girls, to increase the value of women relative to men by creating a scarcity of women? China and India are already experiencing a dearth of marriageable women as young men are coming of age only to find there are too many men and too few women. Feminism is a totalitarian philosophy that thinks nothing of sacrificing millions of baby girls to their cause.
  • Feminism arises out of prosperity and big government programs, which is why it is clear that opposing feminism is a political issue.
  • Neither liberal progressives nor neocon progressives care about men, and both are as misandrist as feminists.
  • To support Liberty and the rights of the individual over the state is to oppose feminism.
  • Feminists want Equal Pay and that is fine, but they don't want to have to do Equal Work and deliver Equal Results to get it.
  • False accusations of sexism is the weapon of choice for the cowardly feminists.
  • Feminism Unmodified: Women should hate bourgeoisie, fight to destroy tradition, tear down culture and give birth to a socialist revolution.
  • Russell Brand is finding out that there is more to not being sexist than not being sexist; you also have to hate masculinity, biology, tradition, culture and freedom.
  • Hatemongers, such as feminists, should always be on the defensive as civilized people everywhere should ridicule and disparage their nonsense.
  • Somebody is manipulating the Gold market to suppress the price; many think it is western central banks, but China is trying to amass a huge position in gold and I wonder if it's them.
  • To paraphrase David Stockman, the "wealth gap" is fine when it reflects the economic justice of the marketplace rather than the political engineering of the state.
  • Business cycles, like the weather, happen and there's nothing anybody can do to prevent that.
  • I can't live on $10/hour but I already have a job and if there were lots of $10/hour part time jobs I might be tempted to take one.
  • Has Canada become such a cesspool of dictatorial oppression that honest speech can now land you in jail?
  • Without freedom of speech there is no freedom of thought.
  • From President Obama to Dr. Phil the mainstream is on a disgusting and sexist campaign to say that men have no right to defend themselves when their attacker is a woman, even if the man is cornered or smaller and weaker and has no way to escape.
  • Given the pervasive and spreading sexism against men how can anybody wonder why a growing number of men refuse relationships but turn into serial Pick Up Artists?
  • Feminists and the mainstream confuse behaving like a macho thug with behaving like a man; they're not the same.
  • The mainstream invests in medical care, drugs and disease maintenance and calls them health, but they're not the same things.
  • Dr. Helen Smith, author of Men On Strike, was asked why a man did not write that book. Answer: There are dozens of books like it written by men, but publishers won't touch them; only a female author could get such a book published in our "patriarchal" and "misogynistic" society.
  • Ron Paul had more than 2 million voters ready to support him in the 2012 general election, and Romney lost them all due to the heavy handed tactics of the GOP. Barack Obama won by a little more than 3 million votes. The math is clear: Romney lost the election not to Obama, but to Ron Paul.
  • Are feminists stymied by the gender bias of others, or by their own?
  • Being a feminist is ideological, being a man is biological.
  • The assertion that men as a class oppressed women as a class is a lie: where and when most women were oppressed, there and then most men were oppressed, too.
