Read the "RAPO" section in "The Games People Play" then get back to us on
that. Most (all?) women enjoy flirting to attract a man just so they can
turn him down.
Yes, and the other side of the coin is...
A guy will drop a female, because "he accomplished what he set out for..."
Which one do you think this is?
Deadly? Perhaps not, but certainly dangerous!! (c:

Geology professor David Deming of the University of Oklahoma was tired of
"the very vile rhetoric" hurled at "people who support Second Amendment
rights." As a result, sexual harassment complaints against him have been
filed with the University and Deming may be dismissed.
Of Handguns and Talking Vaginas
by Wendy McElroy

His confrontation with political correctness began on Feb. 18, when the
school newspaper, The Oklahoma Daily, reprinted a column by anti-gun zealot
Joni Kletter. Kletter stated that current gun laws allow "criminals, youth,
and the mentally disabled to quickly and easily kill as many random people
as they want."
In a letter to the editor, Deming replied, "I just want to point out that
Kletter's 'easy access' to a vagina enables her to 'quickly and easily' have
sex with 'as many random people' as she wants." Referring to Kletter's
"unregistered vagina" which could spread disease, Deming expressed the hope
that she was "as responsible with her equipment as most gun owners are with
theirs."
In the aftermath, a group of professors -- led (of course) by
sociologists -- collectively condemned Deming's letter. It was said to
increase the likelihood of rape. The backlash has been so extreme that
Deming's wife felt it necessary to publish her own letter to the editor
stating that her husband "is not a hater of women, but a hater of
stupidity." His analogy was meant to "parallel" Kletter's own in the
time-honored manner of reductio ad absurdum. Just as vaginas are not
inherently dangerous, neither are handguns. She concluded, "I'm personally
angry at a group of persons would use my husband as a whipping boy to
further their radical feminist agenda."
Becky Hebert -- an associate professor of human relations -- has filed a
legal complaint with the university's Office of Equal Opportunity and
Affirmative Action. It seems his brief letter violates the University's
Sexual Harassment Policy Grievance Procedure that reads, "Sexual harassment
shall be defined as ... verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature ...
when such conduct has the purpose or effect of ... creating an intimidating,
hostile, or offensive working or academic environment." Hebert wants Deming
to undergo sensitivity training and to apologize for having "equated my
vagina with a handgun." (Of course, feminists have never compared male
'equipment' to guns.) Deming realizes the underlying threat to his job.
"People express controversial opinions all the time," he stated, "You
usually don't try to silence [them]...by trying to get them fired."
One recent source of controversial opinions on campus has been a student
group, Advocates for Sexual Assault Awareness who publicly excoriated Deming
and demanded his reprimand. This same group backed a project entitled The
Vagina Monologues -- advertisements for which were chalked across the
campus. What are The Vagina Monologues?
Author Eve Ensler describes her three-woman play, "I was worried about
vaginas. I decided to talk to women about their vaginas, to do vagina
interviews, which became vagina monologues." Among the questions Ensler
posed to the 300 women she interviewed was what their vaginas preferred to
wear -- high heels, feather boas? For such insights, the Village Voice has
likened the play to "an international AA meeting for vaginas." Currently, a
nationwide endeavor is underway to have the play performed on every college
and university campus. The performance is often co-ordinated with "V-Day"
(Feb. 14), which carries the triple meaning of Violence Against
Women/Valentine's/Vagina Day.
In short, Deming's critics throw around the "v" word with wild abandon when
it furthers their own politics. For them, it is a term of awareness and
empowerment. Yet, having raised the banner of vagina, the ASAA wants a
monopoly on how their symbol is discussed. Defenses of Deming and the First
Amendment are muted. It can be worth a professor's career to oppose the
trendy feminist double standard that currently terrorizes campuses
nationwide. Some students have had the pluck to speak out. One wrote in The
Oklahoma Daily, "I urge you all to come to Deming's support, or, failing
that, to exercise your First Amendment right by going up to the next
sociology professor you see and shouting, 'Vagina, vagina!'"
With this background of turmoil, the radical feminist Susan Faludi addressed
the University of Oklahoma, on March 2, to celebrate Women's History Month.
Faludi's latest book, Stiffed: the Betrayal of the American Male, purports
to be a defense of men who are also victims of culture. But, as the
journalist and individualist feminist Cathy Young has observed, Stiffed is
an attempt to shift all blame for men's victimization from the shoulder of
feminism. Young writes, "While Faludi discusses vague cultural forces that
victimize men, she never mentions the male-bashing that infects popular
culture." Faludi claims that men have scapegoated feminism "for frustration
with their cultural disempowerment."
According to Faludi, the true betrayers of contemporary men are their
fathers, who imbued them with unrealizable dreams based on post-World War II
optimism. Radical feminism can rectify men's disempowerment. Presumably it
can teach them to address vaginas appropriately, inquiring after what they
are wearing to dinner tonight.
People often wonder why most feminists don't 'get' the Second Amendment.
They haven't made it past the First one yet.
