...what? The author is a feminist. The whole site is.

From the site's FAQ:

"Feminism and fat acceptance have always been, and will always be at the heart of this blog."

>you're implying that non-feminist women are not afraid of being raped

wat

Because "feminism fights for men too!" is something we hear all the time.

>It's not their responsibility to do so, and I'm absolutely certain that most feminists would not object to male campaign groups which highlight the problem of male sexual assault.

You'd definitely be wrong about that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWgslugtDow

Someone who believes something or another about women's rights, and is statistically more likely to dismiss or suppress any discussion of men's issues.

Not really.

From a comment below:

One of the studies of the Bureau of Justice data notes that in a certain subset of the data, 46% of the male victims of sexual assault reported a female perpetrator.

Citation: http://jmm.sagepub.com/content/12/3/275.abstract

54% vs 46% is not much of a difference. And then you have this from the article:

"Women were more likely to be abused by fellow female inmates, and men by guards, and many of those guards were female. For example, of juveniles reporting staff sexual misconduct, 89 percent were boys reporting abuse by a female staff member."

Any discussion of men's issues is usually quickly suppressed by the usual parties. :/

>citing no evidence whatsoever to back up the statement

>outright fabrication

I provided a link to the source. I recommend you review both it and the hundreds of comments agreeing with it. Most major feminist sites picked up on it at the time as well, and it is also listed as a source on the "geek feminism" wiki.

>That's a terrible state of affairs, but not for the reasons you think.

Explain.

If that is truly the case, then why do many feminists believe that every man on the street must be treated as a potential rapist?

I think it goes without saying that a sick or unemployed man is far less likely to find or keep a girlfriend than a sick or unemployed woman.

I think most couples would be pretty offended if you called the girlfriend a prostitute for letting their boyfriend financially support them.

>Every study I've seen shows that women are paid less in than men in equivalent positions.

Women are paid the same as men in studies that control for other variables. I recommend you stop reading "studies" that don't control for things like hours worked and choice of career field.

In fact, single childless women now make more than men in most US metropolitan areas: "Young women in New York City, Los Angeles and San Diego making 17%, 12% and 15% more than their male peers, respectively." (http://content.time.com/time/business/article/0,8599,2015274...)

Women also can just get a boyfriend if they lose their job or health and need money; I've seen my female friends do this loads of times, but have yet to see it go the other way. Gender roles definitely favor women pretty heavily when it comes to financial matters.

"Nationally" accredited is scam school code for "not accredited."

White males can be minorities, too.

I'm really grateful CCNY still exists to provide me a path out of poverty. However, they're hiking tuition by $800/year for the next few years, so soon it'll be unaffordable, too...

At the amount I was getting paid in 2007, it would have taken me 33.3 years to save up for the first two years of in state public college.

With federal loans, you can only take out at most $5,500/year as an 18 year old, which doesn't do a lot. Cost of attendance in my home state is $20,000/year, so that's about 25% of what you need to go.

I liked how the example used $1000, too. As if poor people even have that much in total. A better example would have been +/- $10, but a lot of people here have absolutely no comprehension of poverty in the US.
