"I think that we can all agree that the main problem with Canadian history is that men are just way too underrepresented. Take our money, for example. I mean, the queen is on all of our coins! What kind of misandry is this? Sure the five dollar bill boasts our old pal Wilfred Laurier, and the ten dollar bill shows everyone’s favourite confederation-loving racist Sir John A. Macdonald, and the fifty dollar bill has séance-holder and dog enthusiast William Lyon Mackenzie King and yeah, fine, the hundred dollar bill is devoted to Nova Scotia’s good ole boy Sir Robert Borden, but I mean, come on. Queen Elizabeth II graces all of our coins and our twenty dollar bill. Every time you open your wallet it’s just ladies ladies everywhere and nary a dick in sight"

-some weird person, he makes no sense

As a child, Paul was the gay target of schoolyard bullies, both boys and girls in equal measure. Today, parents would sue the school board or find some other school for a bullied child. In those days, no one did that. Besides, he was too ashamed of himself even to discuss the problem with them. Given a Jewish education that focused heavily on justice in the face of persecution, Paul began to realize that he didn’t deserve abuse, no matter how inadequate he felt, because no one deserved relentless ridicule and implacable hostility. So he’d have to think for himself, not only about who he was in relation to other boys and men--and to girls and women--but also, more generally, about ways in which both men and women can challenge prejudice.

How the rhetoric of equality can mask the reality of hierarchy has been at the existential core of Katherine’s personal and academic life. As a child growing up in a New England university town, she found that the Christian and democratic values of equality disguised a strongly class-based society. After marrying a black man, moreover, she discovered the enduring problems of ghetto life, which prompted a move to Canada. Later, when studying and teaching gender in the context of religious studies, she discovered another double standard: undermining sexual equality was a form of ideological feminism that either explicitly or implicitly views women as superior to men.

We call this form of feminism “ideological” because of its many parallels with other political ideologies on both the left and the right. Like other ideologies, this form of feminism divides the world into two camps: us (a class of innocent victims) and them (a class of oppressors). As a result, we now have both misogyny (hatred toward women) but also misandry (hatred toward men). This ideological worldview is not only profoundly gynocentric--revolving around the needs and problems of women to the exclusion of men’s--but also profoundly misandric--as if two wrongs can make a right.

When the news media report some disaster, they sometimes use the phrase “even women and children” if such are among the victims...The phrase expresses the point that men’s lives are valued less...[than] anyone else’s life...This is more than just disrespect. It helps remind each man that, in a desperate situation, he is expected to give up his life quickly and readily and without complaint if doing so will save a woman or child...One of the most famous disasters of the twentieth century was the sinking of the Titanic...[The life-boat] seats were given to the women, while the men stayed on board to drown...[The] richest men had a lower survival rate (34%) than the poorest women (46%). That fact...should give serious pause to anyone who hews to the conventional wisdom (or feminist critique) that society is set up to favor the rich and powerful men at the expense of everyone else...The idea of “patriarchy,” even despite its fallacy of ignoring all the men at the bottom of society, entails that surely these privileged members of the male power elite are regarded by the culture as more valuable than anyone else...Yet their lives were not worth as much as the lives of the lower-class women down in steerage...Those women had hardly any money or power or status, but yet simply by virtue of being female, they were privileged to get some of the too-few seats in the lifeboats while the well-dressed gentlemen stood on the deck and silently watched them leave

"If life is to survive on this planet, there must be a decontamination of the Earth. I think this will be accompanied by an evolutionary process that will result in a drastic reduction of the population of males."

In November 2015, it was reported that the Canadian government was going to resettle thousands of Syrian refugees, but they would exclude single men. Only single women, families and unaccompanied minors would be taken in.

that accusations of man-hating have been used to put down feminists and to shift attention onto men, reinforcing a male-centered culture
