Stop the dad bashing : Comments

By Cindy McGarvie, published 4/9/2020

Destroy the Patriarchy! Women DON'T need men! The amount of times I've heard these slogans by angry women, the fruit of today's misandrist climate, is concerning.

Misandrists are always right!, "they never do anything wrong, they are romper room bullies and they bully all day long"(see romper room circa 1960s). Having condemned ever man past an present as misogynists, what else can we expect, We have have decades of post Germaine Greer feminism invest the schools, universities, unions, management associations and the media.

Having heard the BBC's misandrist reporter bully UK Ministers over their acceptance of that nasty, homophobic, misogynist ex PM Tony Abbott, in an attempt to stop him becoming a UK Trade Board member, it is clear that the misandry network has global tentacles.

One day balance may return, but given the "power" misandry delivers feminists/BLM/Socialist thugs, why would they even listen to this authors thoughts.

The contents of this essay are essentially true.

But what does this disturbing image from the Youth For Christ outfit tell us about their "values" altogether?

One could say that it communicates the same kind of applied christian politics of systematic cruelty as described in this essay:

And as depicted in this stark image

I say that the applied politics of cruelty and conquest is very much alive in the White House or Trump's America

Onward Christian soldiers forever marching into war.

At least the author discloses her religious affiliation, which lies behind her view. Sure, dads are important, but they're not always going to be the "central figure".

Based on my experience, plus those of my own children, and other kids I know well, I'd rather say that balanced relationships with mums and dads are both very important, plus you need other influential relatives and role models of both sexes.

Common Daffy D. Focus on the topic and ignore the author's Christianity/religious background. I not a fan of religions and their human failings, but these bullying misandrists are almost as bad as the dreaded "spanish inquisition"!

It's great to be too old to care about silly women or what they think.

One woman a week dies at the hands of a controlling partner! One woman a week! And somebody's daughter, mother or sister!

Nobody is saying these ladies were saints, although some of them could have been. One can agree with the angry women, they don't need these men!

Neither do we, the decent, caring male cohort, who value and respect our mothers, sisters and wives!

Given my druthers I'd medicate the brutes who rape, bash and murder our daughters and sisters! Think marriage and its issue is some sort of title deed to property?

The pill I'd give them would be lead and delivered right between the eyes! And if that then saved other human life? Justifiable? Imagine if Mr Clark had been so medicated, A mother and her kids would still be alive today! And similarly in countless cases down through the centuries?

These men/monsters, started life as badly behaving boys, were allowed by over indugent or craven parents, to get away with bullying, pushing girls/their siblings around, killing harmles birds etc, with slug guns etc. Concequently, got addicted to the thrill kill?

Just because it's nearly Father's day, we have to yet again see this sort of risible rubbish getting a hearing.
