We all know the mythology of domestic violence. Ask a feminist and they'll tell you 99% of domestic violence is caused by the knuckle-dragging potential-rapist thugs known as "husbands". The other 1% is caused by women and only because the b*st*rd deserved it.

Anyway, we know this is one of the Big Lies feminism tells the public, but the Big Lies get swallowed up so easily by the public. I've tried to beat a path to the truth on the internet...I hang around certain messageboards, and if an opportunity arises, I put an alternative view to the Big Lies that feminism has told the public. When I mention actual statistics regarding domestic violence...

http://www.menweb.org/fiebert.htm

...these people get very angry.....with me!!! I'm the messenger. I deliver truth. They call me all the names under the sun....they get upset.....some people have even felt "unsafe" because of me pointing stats out. What is the deal?

Why are people so angry when you point out the cold truth to them?

How can we break these Big Lies? Beating the path to truth....it seems to take a milimetre a day, and I don't know how far I have to go.

Anyway, I get so tired of this scenario: I am simply saying that somethings should be equal:- access to domestic violence support for males AND females. Maintenance payments made equally by males AND females, depending on circumstances, not gender! Joint custody. All these things are for equality!! What happens? I get such a vicious response!! Has the world gone utterly mad? It seems you can't be egalitarian when it doesn't suit the feminists.

Hmm, doesn't this sound familiar? I think I have heard this rant before... Hey Zoot is it muscatel? I'll bring the brownies.

He dumbed his writing style down and everything Isn't that nice of him?

After what happened before, I think I might need a whole cup (I can be nice and share; being in university I should be able to find my own *plonk* pretty easily )

Edited to add: I'm a student; I have nothing to offer but popcorn and no-name Sprite...

A quick check back at the nest revealed that this isn't Dan, it's one of his compatriots.

Could you pass that bottle around, please?
