Darlene, have no idea what you are on about now but we can safely summarise your post and all the above comments as a fairly predictable outcome all round.

Darlene,
I think you have mentioned a website named Larvatus Prodeo so as to mention a website named Larvatus Prodeo

So what kind of website is it, and is it feminist. Can males look at it or post comments to it.

OLO of course is extremely feminist, where males are described as being everything from “cavemen” to “elephants”, to “oppressors of women and their children” to “slime and snails” to “meatheads”. And this comes from those who define themselves as being feminist, and believers in equality and non-discrimination.

So is this website or blogsite of yours feminist.

You can find Larvatus Prodeo here: http://larvatusprodeo.net

Feel free to join in.

Kellyanne, we all bow down to your superior debating skills. Really, well done.

And so you should Anna-Darlene. You are always outclassed. Effortlessly. effortlessly.

We all just regret there is so little contest.

More than a few years ago I undertook a course in media studies, one particular exercise stood out and showed how a film maker can influence the audience.

The examples were two films about housing estates, one film was shot from the angle that housing estates were positive warm and friendly enviroments, the second film was shot from the angle that housing estates were cold, negative places.

Same subject but, two opposing points of view. Basically if you want to portray a negative image, then basically shots which show a positive view wind up on the editors floor.

Another classic example is here,

"Good grief — Israel has finally woken from its seven-year trance and asked France 2 to provide it with the entire unedited 27-minute film that was shot by France 2’s Palestinian cameraman Talal Abu Rahma, from which a 55-second excerpt was broadcast round the world that convinced people a Palestinian child, Mohammed al Durah, had been shot dead by Israeli forces as he cowered with his father behind a barrel to avoid the cross fire in a gun battle raging between Israel and the Palestinians in 2000."

The blunt truth is that truth is the first casualty in the media.

Anna Winter,
What debating skills. All Darlene has said is that the Bra boys of Maroubra beach are bad (and that’s about it).

But is this Larvatus Prodeo website feminist. Will I be called stupid male, or male patriarchy, or an oppressor, or a rapist, or an abuser and so on.

James H,
I have mostly settled on this website http://www.ericmargolis.com/archives.php
to find out what is actually occurring in the international area.

But I haven’t found anything decent yet to find out what is occurring on the national front in Australia. Have you any recommendations.
