Nymphomania and feminism's most despicable accomplishment

Who was it who said something like: "A young man who's not a liberal has no heart, and old man who's not a conservative has no sense"?

I have never thought of myself as a republican or conservative or in any sense of "right of center", but increasingly I find myself reading conservative views with a nodding head. Twice in two days, Mens Activism has linked to Townhall.com articles that sit well with me:

Mike S. Adams has a lovely, swingeing go at some gender PC nutcase who willfully misreads one of his articles to accuse him of slandering and therefore harrassing women at UNC - amongst other idiocies, she claims he called them nymphomaniacs, he didn't. I do hope he follows through with his threat of a formal counter-complaint.

And Kathleen Parker puts it succinctly when she says:

"Men haven't turned away from smart, successful women because they're smart and successful. More likely they've turned away because the feminist movement that encouraged women to be smart and successful also encouraged them to be hostile and demeaning to men.

Whatever was wrong, men did it. During the past 30 years, they've been variously characterized as male chauvinist pigs, deadbeat dads or knuckle-dragging abusers who beat their wives on Super Bowl Sunday. At the same time women wanted men to be wage earners, they also wanted them to act like girlfriends: to time their contractions, feed and diaper the baby, and go antiquing.

And then, when whatshisname inevitably lapsed into guy-ness, women wanted him to disappear. If children were involved, women got custody and men got an invoice. The eradication of men and fathers from children's lives has been feminism's most despicable accomplishment. Half of all children will sleep tonight in a home where their father does not live."

(My emphasis added.)

I couldn't have put it better myself, "feminism's most despicable accomplishment". Hmmm. Maybe I am drifting right here, after all, a lot of good it did me to support the other side...
