The
argument
usually
goes
something
like
this: 
Feminist
discusses domestic
violence
with
an
emphasis
on
men
being
the
problem.
The
MRA
responds
that
men
are
indeed
victims
of
domestic
violence
and
yet
they
don’t
have
any
services
available
when
they
are
victimized. 
Feminist
says
that
men
are
only
a
tiny
fraction
of
the
victims. 
Then
she
gets
read
the
research
quoted
by
her
own
feminists,
that
says men
are
at
least
a
third
of
the
victims. 
It’s
at
this
point
that
the
magic
happens. 
What
does
she
say?

If
you
want
services
for
men
you
need
to
build
them
just
like
WE
built
this
for
women.

This
implies
all
sorts
of
things,
one
of
which
is
that
she
was
involved
in
the
actual
building
process
as
were
lots
of
other
women. 
This
of
course
is
nonsense. 
Who
built
the
services
for
women? 
MEN. 
Who
legislated
the
money
to
do
this?
MEN.
Who
paid
the
taxes
to
make
that
happen? 
 Men.
Who
actually
built
the
systems
with
brick
and
mortar? 
MEN. 
I
am
betting she
didn’t
lift
a
finger
but
it
is
an
easy
ploy
on
her
part
to
say
this.
It
immediately
puts
the
burden
on
men
to
do
their
part! 
LOL! 
Of
course
it
implies that
the
problem
is
the
fault
of
men. 
Importantly,
it
also
relieves
her
of
any
responsibility
since
she
has
“already
done
the
work.”

But
why
is
it
that
it
is
so
easy
for
her
to
say
this
and
why
is
it
that
systems
get
built
for
women
only? 
Gynocentrism.
When
women
ask
for
things
men
will
jump
in
to
help.
They
want
to
give
women
services
particularly
if
it
has
to
do
with
making
her
safe.
But
do
women
have
a
similar
urge
for
men’s safety? 
No.
Women
don’t
seem
to
have
much
interest
at
all
in
making
sure
that
men
are
safe. 
This
makes
it
clear
that
gynocentrism
is
involved. 
Men
geared
to
do
things
for
women
but
women
not
usually
geared
to
do
things
for
men.
(The
needs
of
women
are
a
call
to
action,
the
needs
of
men
are,
well,
taboo.)
Women
are
geared
to
do
things
for
their
children
but
not
usually
the
men
in
the
same
way.

So
when women
ask
for
assistance
of
some
kind
it
is
usually
a
downhill
trip. 
It
might
take
a
while
but
her
concerns
are
heard
and
her
needs
are
attended
to. 
So
here
is
a
pic
of
the
downhill
trip
women
have
when
asking
for
things
from
blue
pill
men

But
what
does
it
look
like when
men
try
and
ask
for
things
for
men? 
I
have
been
involved
in
many
situations
where
men
were
asking
for
assistance
in
one
way
or
another. 
Men
tend
to
not
like
to
do
that,
but
when
they
do
what
do
they
get? 
Resistance!

The
difference between
the
two
is
large. 
Most
women
don’t
have
a
clue
how
hard
it
is
to
get
things
for
men. 
Their
only
experience
has
been
the
hard
fight
to
get
things
for
women.
And
it
is
a
hard fight
but
for
men
it
is
nearly
an
impossible fight. 
Most
will
likely
assume
that
it
is
the
same
difficulty
for
both
women
and men
but
they
are
incorrect
due
to
their
limited experience
and
their
own
gynocentrism.

The
point
is
to
let
both
men
and
women
know
that
trying
to
get
services
for
men
is
a
very
difficult
task
and
one
that
rarely
succeeds.
It
wouldn’t
hurt
to
let
our
legislators
know
this
also.
Gynocentrism
runs
silent
and
it
runs
deep.
