"Assault on a female": North Carolina's discriminatory law

Why do you assume that Metaphor doesn't understand that this is a patronizing, traditionalist statute?

Read my post directly preceding this one where I already answered your question?

Their pattern of communication and general denial that "patriarchy" that is decried by "feminists" is real and pernicious is my guide.

This is, as stated, the first time I've noticed Metaphor apparently accepting a feminist position.

Because this, Metaphor, (and the rest of the MRAs that screed here) is a feminist goal, to remove patronizing laws that shun egalitarian treatment of women.

Like when the National Organization for Women repeatedly opposed shared parenting assumptions? That kind of egalitarian treatment?
 
Lots of things about North Carolina offend me, to a degree that we crossed it off our list of possible retirement destinations. None of them are as easily fixed as this law.

I wonder how Metaphor fails to see this as a result of patronizing/patriarchal behavior? It treats women as less than/weaker/subordinate. Just as I would expect to see in the Carolinas. This isn't an argument I would expect from feminism, and if it came from that camp, they need to get themselves right, but my guess is that this was written by old white men.

Why do you assume that Metaphor doesn't understand that this is a patronizing, traditionalist statute?

Body of work.

Sorry, "obvious to me" from yet another right whinger isn't a meaningful defense, for the group for whom bad faith apologia dominates.

But B20 is not a right winger. He is usually accused of being such by left wingers of course. But that does not make it true...
In Jarhyn's defense, actually he called me a right "whinger", not a right winger. "Whinge" seems to be his go-to insult for people who call him on it when he says something idiotic. For instance, in the course of his belligerent proclamation of his god-given right to put words in other people's mouths, he accuses me of whinging three times. (Although technically, the words he's calling a whinge weren't mine but were his own words that he put in my mouth. Not that that makes him a right whinger, of course. More a wrong whinger. :devil: )
 
It was obvious to me what the OP's point was.

It's an object in a long series of patterned events that create a trend.
As you'd have figured out long ago, were you to read objectively instead of through your ideological blinders, the trend in question -- the long series of patterned events running through most of his threads -- is that Metaphor appears to have an inordinate fondness for pointing out double standards. Your perceiving them as all accusing feminist/egalitarian/"woke folks" of craziness might have something to do with feminist/egalitarian/"woke folks" providing him such a rich supply of material.

Funny, I'm not the only one who sees a specific slant to his posts...

Hmm... I did read "whinger" correctly, but my assessment was that in Jarhyn's jargon,

right whinger:= a right winger who whinges. :D

(I didn't bother with the "whinges" part because I just wanted to focus on what I took to be the substantive accusation).

Because this, Metaphor, (and the rest of the MRAs that screed here) upholding a feminist goal, to remove patronizing laws that shun egalitarian treatment of women, seems dubious as a core intent.

Ah, for no good reason at all.

Yes, you and your ideological compatriots. Funny that.
