Rigid Campus Feminism -- Is It Forever?

From Minding the Campus by Warren Farrell:

As Shelley puts it, "the premise is still, 'Men are the problem" rather than "Men have problems." And this from the man who directs one of only three university men's centers. (The others are at the U of Oregon, and the Houston area Lone Star College-Kingwood, just approved in 2013). And as far as men's rights organizations with college approval, the only one I'm able to identify is the new affiliate of the National Coalition of Free Men at Montana State University in Bozeman.

When I played tennis with the man who was at the time the president of Northwestern University, I told him, "You could make Northwestern the first university in the world to pioneer a program defining men's issues." He said if he did that, he would be "annihilated" by the feminists, so I asked. "Is there any way you could create such a program without being annihilated?" His answer was interesting: " Actually yes. If the University were sued as being in violation of Title IX by not balancing women's studies with men's studies... then I'd be able to support something in the name of saving the university. I'd be more a hero than a villain."

Empowering women, whether in the workplace, sports, or internally, is a virtue. But demonizing men and undervaluing the family undermines that virtue. Male-female relationships are not about oppressor and oppressed. Men and women have worked together and died together in the family boat that navigated the waters of survival. When either sex unilaterally wins, both sexes lose. The family boat sinks.

We don't need a women's movement demonizing men, nor a men's movement demonizing women. We need a movement to transition from the rigid roles of the past to more flexible roles for our future.

The dilemma is that men are defined as the problem or the source of the problem by the anti-male feminist that propogate today's modern colleges.

A celebrated play, "The Vagina Monologues" has a story of a 24 year old woman raping a 13 year old girl girl and it is celebrated, can you imagine the reaction if it an adult male doing the raping?
