she's great. she speaks the truth and triggers idiots
Matt Richards really she give no facts Wemon ubse more men more kill kids more
Kahdarius Nunnery WHAT?? That was unintelligible!
Matt Richards: you do know that you're an idiot too right? as in: NOT SMART. joining in on something you barely understand wont save you. in your tiny head maybe, but not in reality.
p.s.: am i "triggered"? no. i'm simply amused by your dullness and your profile videos... i mean come on...
Matt Richards: i'm pretty sure that i wrote "profile videos" as in: the videos on your profile. profile being your youtube page, geddit? it's also quite hilarious that in your tiny mind, a photographic profile picture is "more real" than a cartoon profile picture... just wow. you seem to have difficulties with words and meaning. but thanks for confirming my notion. you are a true moron. highly entertaining to read tho...
may i add that i'm a graphic designer/illustrator/animator? i create things based on concepts i form in my mind. would you seriously consider being barely able to use a shitty camera based on optical/digital principles you never really understood as being on the same level? stay in your league, thx
This was a video back in 2001. I wonder if she has since changed her mind on female violence.
These women's groups take the fun out of all games. God forbid kids have fun.
Agree...all the fun I had playing games as a kid was so far from what would be deemed acceptable and PC by today's standards....(also, very few girls ever wanted to participate in our types of games...and that was just fine by us).
Just let kids play the games they want to, stop holding kids hostage.
let alone actually be physically active
Mira Smit Schools made huge mistakes when they decided to listen to nagging parents, and started implementing every hair brained idea spewed by a parenting guru that they came across.
On top of that you have way too many special interest groups with their hands in the cookie jar, trying to institutionalize more social experiments that will be conducted on the kids.
Meanwhile, many are entering college completely behind their grade level on several subjects.
All that said, not all schools are the same. It took some years to implement the self esteem movement but they eventually all got there, and imploded.
EVIEEEEEEL
Wow. I can't believe she was saying all of this back in 2001. Anyone else notice that most of the seats in the room were empty? That wouldn't be the case today. She was ahead of her time.
She wasn’t ahead of her time, everyone else was just ignorant. True intelligence waits for no audience.
not really mate, feminism been going on for a long time
The seats would still be empty today because hateful feminists would buy out all the tickets or block the doors to talk about how the speech was about misogyny and proof or a rape culture against women. Men aren't allowed to have problems even today. We aren't permitted too.
I read Fire in the Belly and the Myth of Male Power in the early 90s. After going to a girls school and having 3 older sisters I needed a real education...
Teach your son to play Ozy Rules. Our natives used it to skill thier boys into men. I was too old to play AFL but i umpired for 10 years and got educated.
I remember seeing her book in the library like over 10 years ago. I probably should read it already.
Society should not discourage adventure in youth. Young men learn by action.
Not me, I learned everything I know from Captain Scarlet
I am, actually
Murderers who sneak into my home and try to kill me always leave with a bit of a red face, I can tell you!
How many enemies do you have, Charlemagne?
I'm not sure, but if they should happen to smash me they know I'll return to live again
What's really fucked up is those feminists have it so good because boys were so adventurous. If men did not have our drive to explore and discover humans would likely still be in trees or extinct.
My son isn't even two yet and I worry every day about what kind of shit the world is going to throw at him. What people are going to try to make him believe that he is wrong or evil just for being who he is. I don't know what I would do the first time he comes home upset because some teacher excluded him for being white, or is punishing him for being male. I might go to prison that day. Nobody is going to destroy my son before he becomes as great as I know he can be. I just hope that he doesn't have to go through that shit.
Oh he will, how he handles it, and learns to handle it, will matter far more than the outcome of what b.s. happens.
I hope for the same thing.
I have the same worries for my son. I am being very intentional about directing him towards toys/games/activities that I did as a boy (and I was a pretty athletic and aggressive kid - I was a free safety in high school and college, and I loved hitting people and hitting them hard). I want him to grow up to be confident, strong (even if he isn't necessarily physically strong), and to know exactly who he is and not let anyone change him from who he was born to be. He has limitless potential, and no woman or hegemony is going to take that from him.
Lord Ahind So raise a little wolf. Make his mind civil, but his body savage. Boys lean toward action and violence? Sports. Boy Scouts. Martial arts. Teach him to acknowledge, recognize, and most importantly UNDERSTAND AND ACCEPT that part of himself. That part is better left to a father, I'm assuming that's you. I was a child raised in a single mother household of three. Yes, three. Two boys, one girl. I practically raised my younger brother- our mother is still too busy with little sister to take much notice of us. Yes, she pays for food, shelter, clothing, but she hasn't cared for us in years. Do not raise him to be a man, raise him to be a king. Train within him a sense of duty and respect, and not all at once. Little moments become great teaching tools. Best of luck, I wish your road runs up to meet you and your little one. Blessed be.
Lord Ahind yea, I'm fighting the war on boys, even among peers, boys are ridiculed for being smart with good grades. No wonder colleges are losing males and becoming feminist playgrounds.
I am over 50 and fully remember being told when I was around 12 that us boys should behave like the girls as they were the paragon of good behaviour.... I never understood that as the girls i knew were definitely not well behaved.
Ever heard this little rhyme?
What are little boys made of?
Snips and snails, and puppy dogs tails,
That’s what little boys are made of.
What are little girls made of?
Sugar and spice and all things nice,
That’s what little girls are made of.
Yes that is the one. It starts just after you are born and it is the women doing it to you
Stephen C
Was your mom a feminist?
@@MrRJPE I can't remember the whole rhyme, but this is the one line that always stuck out to me:
Boys are stupider, they come from Jupiter.
The matriarchy is suffocating men. Slowly but firmly.
They don't realize that at some point men in general will have enough and push back. The push back will be a force they will never be equip to deal with and things will likely end up being worse for women then it has ever been. I can see a day when men will say enough is enough and things like the right to vote and many other rights would be revoked. They are basically poking a patient dragon that just wants to be left alone.
Sexual harrasment is nowadays totally meaningless "buzzword", because everything can be turned into sexual harrasment, sooo... yes. Tough life.
systematic101, dirty mgtow
Crush the matriarchy!
"Wow, you actually can't sexually harass and rape women anymore without being punished. Tough life dude."
Who are you accusing of rape here?
Feminists may want feminine men, but real women get off on raw masculinity.
So i have refused to medicate my son for his "ADHD" i have got him into all the roughest sports he loves and im teaching him how to cook and how to use tools.
As a mother i feel theres an intrinsic value to helping your son become an accomplished man.
I'm actually medicated for my ADD and was medicated when I was a child and it was ADHD. It helped me, it didn't lessen my masculinity, I was still a boy who rough housed and enjoyed sports. Girls are medicated for ADHD and ADD too. So the whole medication does this or that is bullshit. Most ADD meds are STIMULANTS one even being basically legal speed. It does not make one docile I can guaran-fucking-tee that.
Also make sure he have a father figure, or at least a role model.
Picticious D "Real" women? Rofl. What does that even mean....
I have ADHD too and meds don't do anything. They're just as fucking useless as antidepressants were when I had depression.
The issue with medicine and ADHD is that it is really all case by case. Some people don't need them, some people need them, other have it so the meds don't work.
But ADHD is most definitely real, its just been mislabeled. It also have to do with a persons mental state, not just attention span. Hopefully they'll rename it to something more appropriate so its taken more seriously.
#BoylivesMatter
Christoph Sedaka yes *sips tea*
Only BLACK lives MATTER! YOU FUCKIN RAYSIST!!! /s
I agree with this comment.
about how children need to be allowed to be children, if boys are inquisitive, and rambunctious so what.
Kahdarius Nunnery #livesmatter
Lately I've been feeling Red Pill overdose symptoms. Keep it up.
Yeah...don't worry about that itching in your crotch and along the vertical center of your back. That's just your balls and spine regenerating. The process is quick and mostly painless.
LordSlag - This was great, LMFAO!
I once got into a fight at school with a girl that was bullying me who was also much bigger and older than I was. Yet the (female) teacher dragged me into the classroom and told me that boys shouldn't hit girls. I responded: "I don't care if it's a he, she or E.T., if someone hits me, I hit back!". She was quite taken aback by that statement.
During my high school years my job prep teacher was a feminist. And I know because when she was out of the classroom I snuck a peak at the grade charts. Every boy in the class had Fs and Ds while all the girls had As and Bs. I asked to be reassigned to a different school for job prep and suddenly I was getting good grades with the new teacher.
Should have snap a picture and showed the principle or something similar.
You made the right choice
Wow, I'm SURE that's a true story
@@drransom01 I believe it is. It's not unheard of. Women like that are real and working in the school system.
@@SilkySnow_ If all women's crime was punished we would have to build many more very large prisons.
My 2 boys will grow up how they want to and no one is going to stop them from playing ruff and having fun. I have a great Husband and 12 brothers to help my boys grow up to be great men they don't need some women's help Thanks.
+Suhrit Pradhan Yes I do and not one sister.
you should keep them out of public school then if you want them to be unhindered by pc culture and fake victimhood. not to mention make sure they pick their professors wisely since a lot of them push the false black victim narrative along with the pc culture one/feminism.
Agreed Six. Looked at some stats on home schooling over the past ten years. Seems to be growing a lot. Maybe IndeMan might do a post on the subject, cause he does graphs and shit. I'm just lazy. Cheers
Totally agree. That's why my boy is going to private school.
systematic101 my oldest is in private school and I still have 2 years before the other starts school
Daughters day is a fun day but Sons day is forcing Boys to become girls
I agree with you
COERCING..AS A SOCIAL CONSTRUCT
BOYS WILL BE GIRLS LOL
Wait, there's a sons day?
@@elioorozco9408 yha its call their birthday's.
When I was in fifth grade (11 years old), someone stole some chalk from the classroom. The teacher (a woman) kept every boy in the next recess. She claimed only a boy would do such a thing. I went out to recess anyway. And she had the gall to take me to the principal's office. They called my mom. At which point she gave them an earful. They promptly dropped the subject (likely fearing a lawsuit). Yhe teacher did something similar a few years later and was fired.
That same teacher once punished my brother for throwing something at a girl even when the girl in question stated it wasn't him that did it.
Those kind of people are the reason I lose my faith in humanity
I had a similar situation happen in 4th or 5th grade. My teacher held all of the boys in our class for a bookshelf being disheveled, and wouldn’t take our word when multiple people knew exactly who did it: one of the girls in our class. She didn’t even ask the girl if she did it. Just assumed that it had to be a boy making a mess. Parents were involved but nothing really came of it, I can’t remember if we even got an apology either.
Women project their anger on other people as a defense mechanism to never deal with or face their own demons
That's a human trait that just happens to have run amok among young privileged women in college
I can't say I haven't experienced it
''And the boys were catapulting babies off the roof'' I laughed so hard when she said that! XD
Well, the dolls didn't cook them any food... so...
If everyone had a father like Jordan Peterson and a mother like Christina Sommers, the world would be a much better place.
When did having biological functions become an evil thing?
Hundreds of years ago, with the Puritans; we've never outgrown it.
I wanted to be an author as a boy.
For my year 6 creative writing project, I wrote a story about 3 brothers who fought through a zombie apocalypse to save their sister.
I was sent to a female school councillor by my female teacher and they interrogated me about my home life and feelings.
When I left the office, I felt evil for having wrote what was actually a brilliant tale of sacrifice and heroism (I reread it a decade later)
I never wrote again after that though.
Thanks women, I'm sure feeling safe is worth murdering the creativity of your sons
It was the violence and traditional gender roles they probably were worried about.
Ending your creativity left a slot open for a little girl to use her creativity to get into writing without you in the way.
So yes, the women that tore your creativity DO feel safer knowing you never followed your dreams.
The real question is, will you let them continue holding you back?
Will you let them spend more than a decade being the obstacle that stopped your potential?
Are you okay with ANYONE holding such power over you, male OR female?
There is a reason boys are pushed so hard by girls without repercussions.
It's because, as even little boys, we can take it.
We adapt, improvise, and overcome or die trying.
Don't end your dreams for anyone, especially those that want to destroy your dreams.
If you stop, they win.
The sweetest revenge is success, just watch any martial arts movie to see it.
Wish you the best, let me know if any of your stuff gets published - you'll have a fan in me.
:)
I was similar as well. I loved making my own choose your own adventure picture books (with words) and I had an awesome lady as a teacher who let me read them to the class. Eventually 2 years later my home room teacher was this f-d up lesbian lady and she told me my books were “stupid and violent” never wrote books again after that.
I love her. She's so right. When I was a kid (I'm just a bit younger than her), I thought feminism was about equality and equal opportunity for everyone to be themselves. I didn't and don't have a problem with men and boys being interested in rough-and-tumble play and going on adventures; I just want to be able to go on adventures sometimes myself. It seems simple. But somehow it's turned into this other thing, which she so aptly describes.
There are still feminists like me who do believe in genuine equality
equalitarianism = equality for all
feminism = women over men
it's that simple.
You're right, as a 53 yr old man, I have always held your definition of what Feminism is.
Could it be that Feminism has been hijacked by entities that even have the leadership of men. Men who possess some devious plan for the world.
ThatAussieGamer117 I don’t judge feminism by its definition. That is ignorant. I define it by its action. My only disagreement with Sommers is that she insists on calling herself a feminist when in the past 30, 40 or even more years, all the actual accomplishments of feminism are to give women power and money and then to denigrate men. Why do you cling so tightly to this label when the actual leaders commit social atrocities? I sincerely don’t understand why that word is so important to you. If tomorrow I found out my political party was advocating to harm another group like women, black people, etc... I would denounce that title in a millisecond. The desire to keep the feminist label is ridiculous.
Wow, I'm glad this video randomly popped up in my recommended list. This was 16 years ago and nobody listened to what this woman had to say. Very intelligent and she looked at actual facts. You see the audience at one point, looks like only 5 or 6 people there with a ton of empty seats too. For the longest time I thought it was me, especially during college in the early 2000s. Then around 2012 I started to look into this stuff and it turns out males really are being treated as defective females as I suspected. Terrible situation. I'm glad I moved away from all of this.
"Women are from Venus, Men are from Hell."
Similarities between Hell and surface conditions of Venus caused me to giggle...
"Catapulted the baby from the roof" That's hilarious!!!
Is it any wonder that I felt the need to leave the United States at the age of 57 in 2001, then never returned? EVERYTHING I did was wrong, I always FELT wrong about it, but I never understood what, exactly, WAS wrong. After being away for a few years, I realized that I'd been wrong simply for being male (AND white).
How I loathe what's become of the United States, which now seems utterly incapable of recognizing, hence defending against, history's most insidious, and OBVIOUSLY insidious, movement. I grew up in a great country of really great people who saw my homeland through the Great Depression, then World War II. How swiftly the decline since then has gathered speed!
I'm tired of Southeast Asia, but I have no home to return to.
Sadly, hardly anyone seems to be listening to CHS's line of reasoning, still!
Roger Snow
That's because she's an excommunicated heretic in the Church of the Holy Vagina, commonly known as Feminism.
Roger Snow You know nothing Roger Snow
Just kidding, people are waking up. Keep on fighting brother.
Roger Snow Christina Hoff-Sommers is basically what feminism was before it got hijacked by bigoted sexists. It's a feminism I can get behind and support fully.
+Morthana M And they were the ones who trained this generation of bigoted sexists to think like this. It was always about advantages without responsibilities, hence the eternal victim narrative.
*2nd wave.
1st wave was between 1860 and 1920, and wanted women to be allowed to work and vote.
The 2nd wave focused on reproductive rights, equality of opportunity and independence from men.
She seems to really know what she's talking about. I'm glad that my elementary teachers were like her.
While teaching Science for many years I was expected to follow an agenda which focused on girl's science education while disregarding the fact that more boys had an interest in Science. I ignored this directive and decided to teach Science without bias and reach anyone who would be happy to learn. This country is clearly deficient in Mathematics and Science education. If you go to any health care facility you will notice that most of the staff is female. Most of the employees did not pursue their education for any other reason than a good salary. Compassion is infrequent in most of these institutions. - PS
This is the important point. There are boys that will pursue science, EVEN if they get their ass kicked for it on a daily basis by jocks.
Girls don't have this kind of passion.

Dear Independent Man, I've been watching some of your videos and they REALLY are excellent. I know I'm late to the party (way late) but thanks for your work.
Those final remarks make me so glad my primary school had a library filled with amazing adventure/historical novels.
thank you for this excellent video, glad she's on our side!
I so happy that this video has been made... it is long overdue!!! I am not a male but I have watched and listened for probably the last decade how men/boys, males in general, have been put down, ridiculed, blamed for everything. I think it is very sinister and I would go further and say I think it is an intentional ploy to take away their masculinity, weaken them and consequently make them lose their identity. The feminist movement, whilst it has many good points, I fear has become almost a monster... don't look at me the wrong way, dont speak to me the wrong way, don't patronise me, don't open any doors for me, don't ask me to cook or look after the baby, dont call me Miss, Mrs, Ms, her, she.... be very careful how you approach me..... scary stuff but its going on and it has had a huge negative effect on the whole population but more so on the male population.
It about time the males stood up for themselves and made a few rules themselves.
Astorrin. yes
What she's describing is cultural marxism and extension of is critical theory, "something seriously wrong with boys" is a contrived criticism in search of a solution which prescribed by cultural marxists is conformity to the collective
Qimodis the fact that these ppl see every issue in the same way helps me understand it. Well, what I mean is that they view everything, and I do mean EVERYTHING through the power dynamic between the oppressor and the oppressed.
Why is Critical Theory fixated on boys specifically?
Sjw cancers have nothing to do with the political-economic theory of an enlightened thinker
@@AlbertBalbastreMorte boys dont conform the way girls do.
rebellions are always led by men. Women dont start rebellions.
Orwell made it a point in his book, that the most proud leader of the state, was the young woman.
@@paccawacca4069 I don't understand the point "the most proud leader of the state, was the young woman". What does it mean?
Not all teachers are bad. My 8th grade reading teacher as well as my 7th grade reading teacher would do anything to get us to read. They had no problem with adventure stories
Then you were one of the lucky ones. I don't live in America, but in my country, there is a no tolerance policy in all schools. Just doing a fist bump a little too hard can get you expelled here. I am a man, but I never let the teachers tell me what I should read and what is not good for my mental health. Most of my teachers where also male btw.
My 5th grade teacher casually told us about how capitalism was so good once. Sadly, at that time I really didn’t know what that was. I feel like should thank him now
In my middle school and elementary school we had AR which turned reading into a competition to get more boys to read. We would read a book then take an online quiz on the book and be awarded with points based on the score and on the size of the book. These points could then be redeemed for prizes. It was brilliant.
im so sorry nazis had infiltrated your school..
Jo Umero That's what my elementary and middle school has, it worked well. I really didn't read at all, just what was required until about 5th to 6th grade. They have a reward system for the AR program to get more boys to read and it worked for me atleast. I'd discovered a new passion for me. I would run out of books most of the time, 2 to 5 books a day throughout my years You would get credits at the quizzes to try to be 1 at the school and if you did your name would get hung up on a plaque outside the door of the library door. I hovered around 3rd and 4th place basically the whole school year. As you said competition is a good part of a boys nature so the competition aspect really helped. The top readers in the school were mostly boys. Oh and Jo if you would can you give more back story over your experience? I'm curious.
With how monstrous feminism has become I hope it gets outlawed eventually. That's not to say I want men to be superior or anything like that. I want both sexes to be treated the same in every aspect. But we can't do it when we have movements that try to prop up one sex above the other. This shit needs to end.
And to add to that; I say the same about race too. No more BLM, no more KKK (which is practically dead anyway). We are all human beings. Lets start treating each other like it.
LupusPurpura Equal rights, Equal standards, Equal responsibilities. You want respect, you give respect.

Men only need to take back everything they've made or produced to leave women naked and standing in a desert with no food or water either and then see how long you would survive without men. Everything that you see wear eat and drink was made possible by men.
Egalitarianism is de way boys and girls!
“We need to start raising boys the way we raise girls” would you treat a dog the way you would treat a cat?

FantaseWolf but
If I ever have a son, upon the arrival of take your daughter to work day, I'd take him out to work with me, if possible, and/or take him to a ball game. I will NEVER allow the victimization of my son in any way, shape or form.
so girls get a day where they are given permission to miss a day of school and instead see what their parents' work place in like with planned activities for them to do related to the subject matter while still being at least somewhat entertaining. the male equivalent involves taking them to an event to hear about how terrible their whole gender is while depriving them of half of their weekend, followed by having them plan meals and outfits for an entire weak in one evening. (i never had a whole week's worth of outfits and meals planned ahead for me by my mother.) but dont worry boys, you can rest from all of this by sitting quietly with a baby doll in your lap. dont actually play with it though! that would be too masculine!
why is it feminism can never JUST be about empowering and encouraging women to do things they want to do, and always has to be heavily tinged with male shaming and man hating?
for the record, i have nothing against men who tend towards more traditionally feminine things and roles like house keeping or child rearing if such is his desire and decision. but shaming men and boys simply for being masculine, or treating it as some sort of disease or malady that needs to be cured is absolutely disgusting and despicable.
there are many feminists like myself like the woman in the video who do believe in empowering women without hating men.
this!
yes, it is true that society has displayed in the past, and still to a degree now, undeserved hostility, based on prejudices and notions which seem to have been discarded by recent scientific research, to men who don't feel comfortable with masculine interests and behaviour, or who even prefer feminine interests and behaviour.
but you don't correct a wrong with another wrong!. one thing is accepting men who don't feel comfortable with masculinity, or who are more comfortable with femininity, and it is quite another thing to bully and shame men who are comfortable with masculinity, which is to say, most men.
I have asked a middle age woman , who said she is a feminist and she was emancipated, and she got her freedom from men, and I asked what have you gained. The answer was not there, I asked 3 times in different ways no answer ,women are still in the kitchen. women still shop ,woman still raise children woman still have the same life as before , but with a new word "feminism". So can anyone explain what have you gained under feminism??. Besides more money to spend!!! And to alienate men!!!!!!!!......
Andrew Millar they haven't gained shit but the right to vote and work. The right to vote is actually something I stand by for them as well as the right to work. But the consequences of this is that cost of living has doubled because now it takes 2 working parents to support a household
We should be teaching women to be stronger not teaching men to be weaker.
MS information! Best one I've heard in a long time!
Since seeing / learning/ observing the war on boys and men, this perspective has opened my eyes, and I have become very mindful of what I say, and how I say it to my two sons... But at the same time, I have to admit that as a young mother I was horrified just how destructive, angry, violent, my sons are. The level of total chaos, and disregard for life and beauty they display is mind blowing... there is no abuse in our household, we are an intact family, I am a stay at home
Mom, we have pets and raise livestock animals... and still they display so much pleasure from
Destruction. It is totally exhausting.
However all that being true, I do see a terrifying trend toward demonizing maleness, and in this day and age being a mother of boys is that much harder because of the dread of the reality they face.
"Women are from Venus and men are from hell"
That about sums up third wave feminist theory! 👌🏻
I've seen the video before. The disdain these women/feminists/educations have for men and boys really disgusts me. Imagine if this was happening to jews, black people, women, transgender people. The world would have a hissy fit. But it is mainly affecting "straight white males" and as we all know, they are too privileged to be of any concern
Also, how can a group be for equity and actually have that as the name of the group? Equity is equality of outcome instead of equality of opportunity. It is offensive to the majority of the groups it purports to help. But these people are not about helping people, it is all about gaining and maintaining power by shaming, silencing and oppressing anyone with a differing opinion.
You see this in university campuses, first they indoctrinate the Soft sciences and the administration and then use their power to enforce their "policies". Second, they attempt to ban anyone might/are opposed to their policies. Conservatives and Classical Liberals are discriminated against so that dissenting opinions can't be expressed. So, No funding for any groups that dissent, fabricate reasons why they can't have guest speakers despite the fact that they used no university funds.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention
It blows me away how articulate and well-spoken Hoff Sommers is here. That level of speaking is something to be aspired to. Great clip, Independent Man.
If you are the mother of a feminist, its NEVER too late to have an abortion.
Fun fact: The chemical structure of Adderall is closely related to meth. Ratilin is also similar to cocaine.
now apparently we've only scratched the surface of what the human mind can do but we think it is necessary to give these to a disproportionate amount of boys over girls 5:1 the girls that take it were mainly tomboys thus the connection being masculinity.
That is what they must do in order to achieve equality in school, tear em down when theyre young.
colbalt95 I was force fed that shit as a kid
@loiklacombeknox5807 So was I. This was during the 90s. I was forced to take Ritalin and I got fat as fuck. Turns out these drugs cause obesity and broads don't care. No surprise since most American women think being obese is OK.

I don't care about masculinity or femininity. I don't care about female or male. I don't care about 'girly' or 'boyish'. I don't care about 'maleness' or 'femaleness'. I don't care about feminists or male rights activists. I don't care about relationships. All I care about is...
ANIME!
And btw the best way to confuse sexist people or homophobic people is to confuse them, for example:
"kissing a girl is gay cuz you kiss all the guys she kissed, kissing a guy ain't cause you kiss all the girls he kissed"

Fear of Tag? Seriously?
Ryan Masterson LOL
Ryan Masterson I have a fear of chess! Such a violent game!
@@purebloodbabyfuhrer785 You can't play that....someone will win.
This speech/lecture deserves at least 50m views.
I appreciate that not all women are following this kind of behavior, thank you Christina for raising this issue and making this book
Sounds like Ms. magazine should be banned.
I was talking about this but with a lack of proper code for society (I didn't know fancy words or how the feminism mind worked but I could see the unfairness bluntly) back when I was 13 and boy was I shunned for it. And this was in Sweden which is worse than the USA.
Could you please share your experience a bit?
Wait - what? Christina Hoff Summers is amazing - I've never seen this before. This goes against all evidence I've seen from SJWs.
She says "end quote" instead of "unquote"!! Thank you so much for using it correctly!
Thanks for sharing this video. It is a total gem.
Christina Hott Sommers

Oooo! Can I play? I like, um... Now let's see here... What's kinda shaped like a turtle with a giant diesel engine like a train? Hmm... Never mind. I got nuthin.
agreed. turtles are great !
you mean tank snakes
Properly trained as ninjas on a pizza diet makes them the best pets ever!
Christina Hoff Sommers is one of the few feminists that care about males. For this I thank her.
I agree with most of what the lady says. The bit that gets me is when Hoff Sommers talks of why she joined the feminist movement back in the 70's, @ 12:25, and to quote "...how recently women achieved emancipation..."
Now, I'm not decrying this achievement in any way... I believe in freedom and democracy, and to be able to go about one's lawful business without let or hindrance, for everyone... if someone did wrong against my Mum, Grannies, Sisters, Daughters, and so on, then they are going to find one pished individual - among a number of other family members - who will seek justice, one way or another - 'lex talionis' if you will. And it would be no different if someone did wrong against, say, my very young sons, grandsons, or my elderly Father, or Grandfather. But here's my rub... how long ago, Hoff Sommers, do you think it was when the ordinary, everyday, working man achieved emancipation?
Fact is, it wasn't that long ago and certainly no more than a century or so, at the most (with many less than that), before women's emancipation. So, emancipation isn't something that sits with women only, it also sits with men too - as plebs, serfs, peasants, crofters, slaves, tythings, slave servitudes, et al.
As for the crap of others liberals in higher education and this talk of 'male aggression.' Me thinketh these ...errrr... people need to take some basic Biology, Chemistry, and Psychology studies. They just might realise that we humans are part of the Animal kingdom, and are under the influence of the most basic parts of life and what makes almost all creatures strive to continue and reproduce - hormones.
We may like to think that we stand apart from all other animals, but the fundamentals are the same for all of us, and the is especially the case with regard to how males differ in 'most' species - as there are differences and outliers - to the female. Now, not every male has the same amount of testosterone in the body, the hyper-aggressive may have the most, whilst the more effeminate lower levels - including women. And they same could most likely be said for females, that the most aggressive having higher testosterone levels to the most effeminate having lower levels. Whilst not in and of itself, proof, the 2D:4D - Second (Index) Finger and Fourth (Ring) Finger ratio shows itself to be a good indicator (lower in males, higher in females) correlated with various physical/ behavioural traits, which show themselves most strongly during 'stress periods' when the fight-or-flight kicks in and a massive surge of testosterone is released into the blood stream.
One thing to note, though, is that Testosterone isn't the final answer to male or female traits, as there are many other hormones that act on the mechanisms of male behaviour and traits. Also, the biggest surges in Testosterone without the 'fight or flight' occur at puberty. I remember when at Infant and Junior school there were certain girls you didn't mess with because they were as aggressive, if not more, than some of the boys. They were the 'tom boys.' The same during puberty at the High school. There were some girls who would beat the crap out of some of the boys who thought themselves tough. In fact, one of my best mates at Junior and High was a girl we all nicknamed 'Haggis'... she was Scottish in an English market town. But only we few band of brothers got to call her that. Anyone else, and she wouldn't hesitate to whack 'em one around the chops.
But many studies have shown that there is a link between levels of Testosterone and its effects - research into Football (Soccer) 'home advantage' has shown heightened levels of testosterone in 'Home' players - believed to be associated, along with other factors, with 'territory' and are especially heightened when playing at home against 'bitter rivals' (Neave, Wolfson 2003). Also, O’Connor (2007) found that supra-physiological doses of Testosterone were associated with increases in aggression, anger and mood.
So, whilst all is calm, Testosterone levels tick along with a 'maintenance' dose for men, that mean men can and do, for the most part, act in a reasonable manner in normal daily life. But if a 'stress' event occurs, depending on the event and its immediate perceived danger, a supra-physiological dose of Testosterone may be released into the blood stream... along with the body actions and reactions of a typical set of Male traits and behaviour, in general. For women in direct 'stress' event the actions and reactions, in general, are different. Women will 'scream' and 'shrill,' and possibly burst into tears (which generally occurs after the 'stress' event recedes, whilst men on 'cool-down' will kick bang the desk and kick over the waste bin). The 'screaming' and 'crying out' are typical actions of 'warning' and 'calling for help' for the others to come rushing to their aid.
These 'stress' event don't have to be a fully life-threatening 'meet a tiger on the path - oh shite' events, general everyday events in an office environment, say, can occur that are enough to trigger that surge... for men AND women. And of course not every Male will have the same levels of Testosterone, as won't every Female, either at 'maintenance' level or 'stress event' level - hence why we all may act differently whether calm or stressed - though, in general, Males act 'similar' to other Males, and Females act 'similar' to other Females.
Just my thoughts 🤯🧐
Oh man I would really like to punch some virtue pushers right now!
watch the red pill if your interested in this
this society has thrown men away. the only recourse now, is to not participate. do not marry! make your money, and keep it. don't argue. it will never be their fault anyway.
As a guy this almost makes me want to cry, shortly after I want to throttle the women responsible for this.
HAPPY Resurrection Sunday!!

Here comes the jesus bro
AMEN!!
You're off topic. And deluded.
amonghpigeons ... Truth is always on-topic.
Strange how any society that empowers woman goes straight down the toilet. Strange how these empowered woman turn around and do nothing,but try to tear down the very people who who are mostly responsible for them having the high quality or living they enjoy
Conveniently, all the wisdom and science which I deem correct also validates my beliefs! Who would have thought they'd line up like that?
More damaging than inequality, is being blinded by our preconceptions about what caused that inequality.
Hats off to you, Mdm Sommers, for remaining a rational feminist, and turning back fanaticism !
And hats off to you too, Independent Man, for bringing these issues to our attention in such a calm and objective manner ! :)
And lo, the modern day mangina was born.
Meanwhile, in Islamic schools...
Excellent video. Thankyou.
My mother was a moderate feminist. My first toy was a doll called Christopher Robin.
By the age of 6 I was obsessed with lego, by 10 I was building catapults and setting fire to stuff.
For many boys it's a case of "boys will be boys", no matter how hard you try to persuade them otherwise.
Son's day; how about playing catch with your Dad, go camping, tinker with the car, make a boxcar/bogey, make a swing over a river etc etc. We are feckin male. This is pure emasculation.
Chris Jackson sounds like a good day for a son... Too bad some kids with bad fathers or gay mothers will never experiance what it’s like to have a good father.
The worst part about this is there's hardly anyone in the audience. Only a few were willing to even listen.
This needs way more views.
I don't consider myself an Apologist, however, I am so sorry that the "Modern Feminist" movement treats men and the women who love them like shit. What value can there possibly in stripping men of their masculinity? I can't imagine how they won't all become a bunch of bitter, hateful, angry lesbians by the time this is only.
these lazy sunday posts are the best!!!
Travelling in an elevator alone and a woman steps in, I will get out immediately and vice versa.
As a mother of 2 I can absolutely agree with this wholeheartedly. My 10 year old son has been completely beaten down by his angry female teacher. He's constantly belittled for his energetic behavior and his normal male attitudes. He was forced to apologize for hitting a boy after the boy kicked him in the crotch. He was so confused that he was in trouble for defending himself. I'm constantly having to combat the confusing and opressive messages he gets from school.
Grew up in a wholly and completely Christian household, with my father as a pastor of our local church.
Played videogames since I was about age 5, first rated M game I played was Conkers Bad Fur Day on Nintendo 64 at age 10.
My fathers policy was this;
"As long as you don't repeat the bad words, or emulate the bad behavior. It's all fun."
I remember him taking me to Gamestop to get Dragon Age: Origins and the guy at the counter was like "Just so you know, this game has violence, gore, blood, disturbing imagery, sexual visuals..." and my dad interupted and said "All the good stuff right?"
And the cashier just laughed his ass off and gave us the game.
Felt good to have a father who encouraged me to enjoy what I like, and taught me not to let my passions control me or effect my behavior. It also felt good for him to encourage us to "be men" and take us out hunting, hiking, climbing, and other *MANLY* activities. He rode Harley Davidson motorcycles to church almost every Sunday morning, and carried a gun in his car at all times.
Nowadays it's a cardinal sin to even suggest that boys want to do boy things. Or that girls want to do girl things.
i could listen to her for hours and come away feeling it was time well spent
I think Sons' Day should be where businesses rent out small spaces like warehouses, unused parking lots, football and baseball fields, arenas, community centers, etc. for competitive sports and games like laser tag, paint ball, football/baseball/soccer (maybe even golf), wrestling, skeet shooting, or even having police or military personnel come and teach them about survival and cooperation/self-reliance, or maybe just teach them to fix things like cars or have them help build houses. Sheesh, people, boys aren't that hard to figure out.
On another note: it is an absolute travesty how few people went to hear her.
This lady's been ahead of the game for years
Starting at 18:18, looking at Christina talking this passionately and reasonably to an almost empty room shows us the depth of these issues, and the little attention they receive from society at large.
Everyone needs to see her videos.
I come from a family of 4 boys and a mum. My mom LOVES her boys and sees the masculinity and understands it. Its not a bad thing, infact its protected and built this world in the hardest circumstances. Celebrate the difference, dont indoctrinate my children
Brilliant and inciteful work by Christina...………..really scary too...…………!!!
Learned a lot here, really appreciate her views and insights... an OG of this topic, wow, those seats would be full today
