In
my
very
short
time
as
an
observer
of
the
budding
Men’s
Movement
I
have
been
impressed
with
the
analytical
prowess
of
not
only
those
who
regularly
write
articles
or
run
websites
and
blogs,
but
also
those
who
intermittently
leave
comments.
The
concentration
of

Eureka!

moments
induced
by
the
content
I
have
viewed
on
men’s
websites
is
unmatched
by
anywhere
else
I
have
been
on
the
Internet.
However,
not
everyone
who
has
happened
upon
this
growing
movement
has
been
as
captivated
by
the
quality
of
discourse
as
I
have.

There
is
a
certain
brand
of
commenter
who
announces
that
the
discussions
in
the
men’s
movement
are
unbalanced.
Though
they
don’t
necessarily
disagree
completely,
they
want
to
remind
us
that
our
analysis
is
flawed
by
not
taking
everything
into
account.
It
is
true
that
the
biggest
challenge
of
proper
analysis
is
incorporating
all
relevant
information,
but
I
have
yet
to
see
a
commenter
make
an
argument
of
this
type
that
successfully
invalidates
an
analysis.
They
invade
the
discussion
as
a
champion
of
‘balance’
but
all
they
are
actually
doing
is
disrupting
the
scale
by
adding
dusty
rocks,
broken
twigs,
crumpled
tin
cans
and
all
manner
of
otherwise
irrelevant
debris.

I
have
to
wonder
why
they
would
find
it
necessary
to
tell
a
feather
being
weighed
against
a
hammer
about
the
importance
of
‘balance.’
It
would
seem
that
in
this
circumstance,
the
most
efficient
way
to
promote
balance
is
to
somehow
address
the
massive
weight
of
the
hammer,
rather
than
ensuring
that
the
tip
of
the
feather
weighs
as
much
as
the
stem.
These
people
would
better
spend
time
in
their
search
for
equality
and
fairness
if
they
did
exactly
what
the
men’s
movement
aims
to
do:
strengthen
the
wills
of
men
and
tear
down
the
zero-sum
benefits
women
gain
at
the
expense
of
men,
specifically
and
civilization,
ultimately.

Why,
then,
do
they
try
to
promote
‘balance’
here?
Is
it
because
they
see
us
as
actually
willing
to
change
our
minds?
Could
it
be
an
acknowledgement
that
what
we
think
will
soon
have
a
great
effect,
and
they
want
us
to
not
forget
to
care
about
women?
Or,
could
it
be
the
opportunity
to
satiate
their
misandry
at
the
same
time
as
they
imagine
themselves
to
be
intellectually
competent
enough
to
think
about
a
topic
as
grand
as
the
course
of
human
society?

We
are
certainly
easy
targets
here.
Neither
men
nor
women
seem
to
have
any
qualms
or
fears
about
arguing
with
men.
Both
men
and
women
have
come
to
A
Voice
For
Men
to
tell
us
we
are
unbalanced,
and
that
we
should
be
promoting
everybody
and
not
just
men.
I
suppose
they
take
issue
with
the
fact
that
men’s
sites
honestly
state
a
clear
intention
to
uniquely
help
men.
Feminists
lie
about
their
false
position
of
balance
by
claiming
to
promote
equality,
even
though
they
are
literally
incapable
of
even
conceptualizing
what
that
would
mean.
The
‘balance’
commenters
expect
us
to
be
even-handed
when
feminists
clearly
are
not.
That
hammer
definitely
has
one
end
which
is
heavier
than
the
other.

There
is
a
distinct
need
for
a
school
of
thought
unified
towards
promoting
men
because
this
is
something
men
and
women
will
not
do
passively.
There
must
be
articles
written
that
totally
fail
to
address
women’s
issues,
by
intent
and
by
design.
We
need
thinkers
who
conduct
skewed
analyses
of
society,
especially
taking
into
account
how
men
are
affected.
This
should
not
be
done
in
ill
faith
or
by
sacrificing
truth
and
accuracy,
but
balance
in
the
presentation
is
a
luxury
we
must
be
willing
to
jettison.
Anything
less
would
be
selling
men
short
for
the
unique
benefit
of
women
a
septillionth
time.

Women
have
immense
power
over
the
minds
of
humanity.
It
is
the
power
to
get
people
to

want

to
help
her.
Women
have
always
had
the
ability
to
tip
the
scales
of
‘balance’
in
their
favor
by
an
innate
and
effortless
ability
to
make
people
care
about
their
concerns.
Feminism
represents
a
lust
for
the
male
form
of
power:
forcing
people
to
do
things
they

do
not

want
to
do.
Both
of
these
powers
combined
is
disastrous
for
men,
and
men

must

have
the
ability
to
focus
on
their
issues
for
as
long
as
this
dynamic
continues.

The
people
saying
we
are
not
taking
everything
into
account
about
men
and
women
are
duly
noted,
and
they
are
correct
that
we
leave
a
lot
out
about
‘bad
men’
and
‘good
women,’
among
other
things.
However,
our
goal
is
not
to
produce
the
most
complete
assessment
of
modern
society
in
the
West.
It
is
to
stop
the
abuses
of
decent
men
by
governments
at
the
behest
of
women,
and
it
is
difficult
enough
to
get
people
to
care
about
the
well-being
of
men

without

setting
our
concerns
parallel
to
those
of
women.
