Men who have trained for or experienced such encounters know about bravery and mental fortitude from firsthand experience. Men who have been tested physically know that inequality is a physical fact. Men who know how to deal out violence know that radical feminism’s tenets—that women and men are equal—are a lie. We know that women are not the same as men: not physically, mentally, or in terms of moral character."


A long, long time ago, in a galaxy far, far a way, I happened to be present during a punch, throw and slam match between a strong male and a weak female. Consequently, my opinion of what a "man" is and is not is very well defined, and I agree with this article, 1st! Good find!

(In addition, my opinion formed that day led me to persue the knowledge of boxing, for self-defense, so no MF could ever achieve that goal again. )
