Laura Bates, a perpetually (and unjustifiably) anxious Special Snowflake, aka The Everyday Whining Project, inaugural member of The Whine Club, makes an effort to appear calm and cheerful:
Our thanks to Belinda for this. The academic in question is Joanna Williams, we’ve frequently linked to her pieces on Spiked. We’ve added her book Women vs Feminism: Why We All Need Liberating from the Gender Wars to our Recommended books list.
Justice for Men & Boys 
Quote;
“…The “victimhood narrative” that is being taught at schools and universities is fuelling anxiety in young women, an academic has argued in her new book….”
End quote.
As it is intended to.
Feminism hates women – ironically –
manipulating them into being polemical canon fodder.
Meanwhile, only men are Actual canon fodder of course – but that is never mentioned.
Now I wonder, which is worse?
Hmm, tricky one…..

I think another outcome is more young men are exposed to the “all men are rapists” ideology and are becoming more sceptical. I do think the advance of feminism was helped by the relatively “contained” nature of both the debates and policy. To most men it looked like “women’s issues”(such as maternity leave, being frightened of bulling men, breast feeding and management in already female dominated industries mainly in the public sector). In a sense the snowflake brigade in creating a huge inflation what “sexism” is have surfaced the discrimination at the heart of feminism. As the author points out the ideologues have had to cobble together a wider and wider idea of sexism which both looks weak but also draws in men who wouldn’t at all be bothered in the past.
The Weinstein case is the latest in the long procession of cases of rich and powerful men caught chasing their secretaries round the office or using the casting couch, in many respects its quite traditional for Hollywood. And of course as such completely divorced from the lives of “everyman” (or indeed everywoman). Feminists could indeed “make hay” around such a case, not least because few men would defend such boorish behaviour which Weinstein himself has said he’s ashamed of. . But to go on and accuse all men and demand all “flirting” “unwanted compliments” “looking creepy” be criminalised exposes the visceral hatred for all males. I have hope that the “everyday” sexism stuff will bring more men into the debate. In a sense one can see this in the labour party as more men who do or say silly things now or in their past get done over by the sistas no matter how trivial or distant the infraction. Its a long way from the old game of more pay for dinner ladies, longer time off for mothers, more public services with fexible working.
