Today was depressing with one of the dominant stories today was 'all men are rapists' men-bashing narrative because some stupid dangerous male lunatics think it is OK to go onto Twitter and say they want to 'rape' feminists and female MP's.
It hands the ammunition to those modern-day men-hating feminists who want to paint all men as potential rapists and Neanderthals as part of the patriachal conspiracy. It just adds momentum after the banknote 'success', the golf club conspiracy and today's news on employment tribunals (more tomorrow on this).
We are back to the "when did you last beat your wife' territory - now it's "when did your last tweet you wanted to rape an MP"
Of course, it is painted as a women against the patriarchy when it comes to trolling, but we know from this site that men can be victims of trolls and also, that women will troll other women on Facebook etc. And just remember that the Luluvise site is one big troll fest against men.
So it meant a great story such as the clear up rate for testicular cancer or the lack of men taking paternity leave - thereby showing paradoxically how committed men are to the family unit as they will sacrifice paternity leave to protect their family's income (you won't hear the anti-male feminists talking about how men support their wives/partners/daughters).
So a few lunatics men mean pro-male stories are relegated and men again are lumped together by those who want to paint us all as bastards. Those trolls have damaged the women they trolled but also men campaigning for equality.

What gets me is that English Defence League leader Tommy Robinson regularly gets threats of decapitation for him and/or his family, but was told by Bedfordshire Constabulary that if he continued to retweet them he'd be arrested because of their distressing content. Nobody gave a fig about that.

I honestly doubt that a significant number of men have made the alleged Twitter threats. This is just another silly feminist story to drive manufactured feminist narratives - 'men are violent', 'men are rapists'. Let the feminists have their pathetic little victories (Jane Austen on £10 notes in 2017, 'Lose the Lad's Mags'...). Let's focus on the BIG battles e.g. paternal access to children, male victims of domestic violence, and many others.

Men always seem to fight between themselves. They really don't help themselves most of the time. It seems to go from one extreme to the other what with white knights thrown into the mix too.
I can see a mini-scale civil war breaking out between men - even between some of those who want the same outcome!

So this vile woman gets just 5 lousy months for beating a paralysed man in a wheelchair, she will be out in a few weeks. You call that equality?
What would a man have got for beating paralysed woman in a wheelchair under domestic violence. Let's hope she ends up in one eh.

Also beware of the misandrist feminists pretending to be men's rights activists. They wil be overtly sexist and vulgar (against women)and try to give the legitimate MRA cause a bad name. Not to mention get the organisations websites and even individuals with whom they associate blackballed by search engines, directories and newspapers.
