10. Boys are so very afraid today of losing their right to bully.

To freely be able to harass.

I have about walked from du. Administrations clear message of lack of respect for women, with comments and actions they have consistently made. In their mind, I am sure they see only the dislike for just a few loud mouth women. But, the reality truly is women and girls everywhere saying no.

Our voices on du has never been extreme and consistently reasonable. That pisses men off. How can they paint us as the bad guy, in that?

They do it with caricatures created and blatant re telling of history. Skinner created a site where almost daily a member from du goes to di and starts a nasty thread about feminists, ergo hof.

Redheads, panties, si, spider woman... Create ridiculous story telling so hof women can be ridiculed, shamed, insulted, bashed.

These are known voices on du. Our mirt. Our hosts in gd.

This is our continued discussion, in reason, example, experience the manner women are bullied to silence.

Feminist issues.

This is a clear example in the micro of a democratic progressive board.

I can and do conclude that men are so very fearful of losing their ability to bully, harass, silence women.
