The Myth of Male Power - Warren Farrell - 2/19

Best-selling author and men's rights activist, Warren Farrell, gives an interview about his book, The Myth of Male Power.

A former director of the National Organisation for Women, Warren argues that society has been mislead by the feminist movement into perceiving women as victims of male oppression. He believes that the reverse is true; women have most of the rights and privileges whilst men are treated like 2nd-class citizens.

This interview is 3 hours and 17 minutes in length.

[August1977]

When a woman achieves success she credits her sensuality, i.e. seductive and persuasive social skills, when a man achieves success it's on account of his political skills, insights and know how. When a man fails he has to assume responsibility, when a women fails she adopts the 'victim mentality' and passes on the blame to those who she entrusted with defending her interests.

According to your logic: If women don't want to support children by themselves, then; they shouldn't get pregnant to begin with. In any sane society RIGHTS come with RESPONSIBILITIES. A woman has the RIGHT to UNILATERALLY surrender her parental responsibilities AFTER a pregnancy has occurred via: Abortion, adoption, or abandonment. Men do not. Since men have no reproductive rights they should have no reproductive responsibilities. YOUR body, YOUR choice, YOUR responsibility!

This guy is such a pussey. Check out Esther Vilar she really gives it all to you

"men have not spoken up" @ 2 40. Ya that's because women won't allow it. They're much too sensitive and p.c. to even try to hear from men's perspective.

He is right that both men and women have different types of power. However, who has more power? I think the way to settle it is, who controls the money. Not who has the money, who makes the money but, who spends or, who controls or whose role controls how the money is spent. This is not who hands the Visa to the cashier but, for what reason. The control of money is the control of the movement of resources including human resources. This is the very deifinition of power.

It seems to me, this man is talking about 'equal responsibility on both sexes'. If we all want this, can everyone stop being so accusatory and angry? A dialogue is what's needed, not something that feels like mass inciting of anger of one gender upon another. Of course when people's fundamental views are challenged, it's easy to see how emotions can flare up, but it's really important to see how an understanding of this equality can only be reached when both sexes embrace their responsibility.

There are Laws, Court and Police practices that encourage an epidemic of False Accusations of Domestic Violence, Abuse and Rape in this country. Women gain from False Accusations - Why?

The "Feminist" Ideology that is now Indoctrinated into Politics, the Government, Courts, Police and General Public, that:

- Women are Good, Men are Bad!

- Women are helpless Victims, Men are Perpetrators!

- Women need Help and Protection, Men must be Restrained, Prosecuted and Jailed!

... - Why?

VAWA Immigration by False Accusations:

If you are an immigrant woman, pretend to be in love with a US citizen or a Legal Resident, get him to marry you. Then dial 211 and falsely accuse him of Domestic Violence and Rape and move to a VAWA shelter.

You will be on a fast-track for a Green-Card and US citizenship - all expenses paid for by the US tax payer and as a bonus you will be getting full social benefits.

Right a woman wants to be able to walk into a bar without being bothered? Thats like how a woman wears a tiny miniskirt and gets angry that men look at her. Our culture sure is becoming whiny and weak. I think strength and tolerance would be a better choice to teach our children. You can read alot about this guy just by his voice how timid it is, that and he seems to be completely unwilling to take a stand on anything for fear of offending someone.

@TheLavish99 more women are *known* to be sexually harassed...men may even be equally as harassed, but not as willing to tell anyone about it due to fear of being called less than a man (ie: a pussy)

[watevatube]

This guy is all over the map,trying to defend everyone $

[SiCGaming123]

@TheLavish99 Men are born out of the fear of losing their own existence, heritage and place in life.

Men like Napoleon fear nothing, for us, a man that holds charisma is as dazzling as the brightest star in the sky.

That's why we all gather beneath him.

Do not the confuse the pro masculine for chauvinists, a true man would never lift a finger to such fools.
