The significance of Tuesday's debate on "Is Feminism is sexist?" gathers apace now that it has been revealed that he is debating Estelle Hart,the National Union of Student's Women's Officer. She has a NUS blog and had one before she became an NUS officer.
It is significant that the NUS Women's Officer is prepared to take part in the debate, especially when seen against their attitude towards Men's Officers and want them all to be scrapped.On the blogroll of the NUS blog (see link to Estelle Hart's link to NUS blog above) you will see there is an officer for every single type of person except for a heterosexual man.
It means the NUS see it as significant and that they can see the tide is turning against their unreasonable and unequal attitude towards, men's officers and equality in general. They have much to defend.
Good luck to Tom

Great stuff. The tide is indeed turning, and feminists' sudden willingness to debate must be seen for what it is: a clear sign of weakness. We must be under no illusion that feminists, having refused to debate with their opponents for decades, will now engage intelligently. It's not going to happen. Their sole motivations will be:
- to give the ILLUSION of being reasonable people; and
- to sucker anti-feminists into wasting their time, energy and resources in debating.
Debating is critical for raising public consciousness about the damage done by feminism, and Tom Martin is to be applauded for agreeng to the coming debate; but let us concentrate our time, energy and resources not in debating with feminists but in fighting them.
Great to see such posts. You've made my weekend!

Any publicity about this is good publicity. The story is so hidden by the mainstream media that these debates will bring much needed attention to the topic.
Sounds like she may be reading from the NUS "I will win the argument" sheet that they hand out to female students in case they have difficulty justifying feminism, as previously discussed on this site here;

Though the NUS have removed the pdf from the link now.
Good Luck to Tom, he's a great man.

My congratulations to Tom for a great performance last night, despite his time for speaking being reduced from 20 to 10 minutes with no notice. Estelle Hart's input was tired old Leftie nonsense, even the women in the audience seemed bored rigid by it.
From memory, there wasn't a single substantive point made by Tom which Estelle addressed. She just trotted out the same old mantras we've come to expect. Feminism is intellectually bankrupt and has been for decades. It exists not to promote equality but to favour a small band of professional feminists such as Ms Hart, at the expense of everyone else: men, women, and children alike.
