History, the News, Men, Women, Life, Death, Joy, Pain
History, many say, is nothing but violence, war, death … Yes, because men write it. If women wrote history, maybe we’d put something else center stage. Maybe themselves. And maybe if all that violence didn’t make the front page, there’d be less of it. And if men became unimportant, then what they did would become …

When men are raped
When men are raped, as they often are in prison, does anyone ask them are they sure they didn’t want it? Does anyone come even close to suggesting they asked for it, they are to be blamed for it? Is anyone quick to add ‘alleged’ to the report?

Educating Women to Reduce Over-population. Right. They’re the problem.
So the other day I came across, yet again, mention of the idea that educating women would reduce over-population. (Right. They’re the problem.) I find that questionable. If education makes the difference, then why aren’t we educating the men as well? And if the men are already educated, then clearly education isn’t the solution: they’re …

Business, Responsibility, and the Environment
The following is the introduction to Chapter 10, Business and the Environment, of my business ethics text, Ethical Issues in Business 2e, Peg Tittle (Broadview Press, 2016).

from Jeffreys’ The Spinster and her Enemies
“As Dale Spender points out in Women of Ideas, women’s theory has been routinely dismissed and written out of history whereas men’s ideas have been called philosophy or politics.1 In no instance is this clearer than in the case of the feminist philosophy of sex that we will be looking at here. The contempt with …

Why Pornography Matters … Andrea Dworkin
My god, there’s something placard-worthy in every paragraph!! “Why Pornography Matters to Feminists” from Letters from a War Zone, Andrea Dworkin: Pornography is a n essential issue because pornography says that women want to be hurt, forced, and abused; pornography says women want to be raped, battered, kidnapped, maimed; pornography says women want to be …

Men are allowed to …
“Men are allowed to set and have boundaries, they are allowed to say no. Women are not: we must be open-minded and inclusive to the point where we must say yes to everything. Yes to porn, yes to abuse, yes to prostitution, yes to lower pay, yes to dating men when we don’t want to.” …

Andrea Dworkin addressing an audience of about 500 men …
“…why are you so slow? Why are you so slow to understand the simplest things; not the complicated ideological things. You understand those. The simple things. The cliches. Simply that women are human to precisely the degree and quality that you are. “It is an extraordinary thing to try to understand and confront why it …

Crying Rape for Regret
Regarding the view that women ‘cry rape’ when they regret having had sex, let’s concede for a moment that that’s true. The concession begs the question: why do so many women regret having sex? Even if it turned out to be a mediocre experience—if the man wasn’t very good at it, due to lack of …
