My ex-boss happened to briefly meet my ex-hubby. She said to me,.... wide-eyed, and slightly envious... Your husband is really masculine isn't he? Really male. I said something to the effect.... ' uh yeahhh he is certainly that'.

The name’s Karnal. Corporal Karnal to you.

Are any of you old ladies willing to match the old boy’s intelligent analysis of this subject? Or are you content to stand around complaining about the weather?

And yes, I’m surprised too.

Feminists set themselves up as victims. Feminism is predicated on the belief women are controlled and defined by a patriarchy. The major drive of feminism is to break free of this control.

The Myth of Misogyny

Stephen Buckle

Women’s historically unequal social status is systematically misunderstood by feminist theory. Status, women’s status included, is best explained by reference to the pressing problems a society needs to solve to preserve itself and flourish. Simply put, those who are recognised to represent the solution to society’s problems enjoy high status, while those who are dependent on the problem-solvers suffer lower status. This explanation completely sidesteps the commonplace feminist explanations in terms of sexism, misogyny, and so on. Social worlds are never ideal—but we have been trapped, by our own lack of imagination, into regarding them as therefore malign.
