So what they are saying is that men should stop screwing around.

Who says sex is fun.

I always thought it was work.

3,850 words.

The Constitution was about 4,300 words.

Someone needs an editor, and it ain’t Madison.

I hit adulthood during the sexual revolution. Birth control and abortion deprived women of the excuse to refuse sex with predatory men. It didn’t affect me, I’m not very charming.

If “feminists” wanted to get women the best deal possible, they would work really hard to bring everything back to a 1950s sort of world-view. Women had it really, really good back then. But they threw it all away. Because the feminists told them to. Now women are miserable.

Well, its completely evident its women who don’t want to stop screwing around.

As the norm/general rule, women are the determiners if any sex is going to happen.

There was a research study done years ago (I think it was called "The Socialization of Sexuality" or something like that) that determined the people who have sex the most frequently are the people who have all 3 of these characteristics: married, Christian, and attend church regularly.

It was done by NIH. The researchers were surprised. LOL P.S. -- that same study determined that the people who are happiest with their sex lives are married regular church attending Christians. LOL And the same for women who most frequently experience the Big O. LOL

Worldly people know how to talk the talk. Christians walk the walk when it comes to sex. LOL

Imagine choosing to enter the workforce.

That choice also inhibited wages while the econ guys touted the idiotic lump of labor fallacy.

“Reactionary” feminism ... a term to denigrate anyone, even once allies, who don’t accept that men can be women....

Advocating for abortion while decrying the “evils” of contraception?

Sounds to me like they have stock in abortion businesses.

Yes, women do need to stand up for their rights. But these “feminists” have it all wrong. A woman’s right to not be bamboozled into thinking that abortion is an acceptable form of routine birth control is, I think, paramount.

I like this article. It’s rare that an author honestly describes the view he is critiquing. Much more typical is to set up a straw man just to knock it down.

“As the norm/general rule, women are the determiners if any sex is going to happen.”

If men said no I’m fairly sure there wouldn’t be a lot of sex happening.

Thankfully I grew up in the 60s and 70s... sex was fun and frequent, names weren’t important until that one 51 years ago I’ve been with ever since.
