Maybe it isn’t clear that she’s not promoting men’s issues..but it is quite clear where YOU stand, you are a confirmed misandrist.

I think therapy is in order…being a female misogynist must lead to real relationship problems for her amongst persons of both sexes. The rest of her articles are just flat out bizarre.

And the hero in her romance is an asshat that thinks any woman with implants has to be a “loose” woman. Don’t even get me started on the nice girl manicure of the heroine…lol

Domestic violence is a cash cow? Well, I need money, so maybe I need to figure out how to get involved.

Shi, I would think they’d have more issues than the average Joe. We do have to take into consideration the whole fang and fur aspects of the situation. :)

Can I promote men’s issues? Maybe that should be my next promo platform.

I mean surely male vamps or shapeshifters have as many issues as a human guy, right? More?

That’s very . . . odd. I still don’t understand her claims of a man friendly romance but her personal viewpoints aren’t ones that I care to support with my dollars.

so they changed the definitions of abuse, and started accusing all men of rape and abuse.

That’s pretty awful.

This woman is insane. This is from her entry entitled “Feminism Today”:

quote” They want as much alimony and child support money as possible, and shifted the dealings with the still-hated ex-husband to the court system. They want more battered women, (the domestic violence industry is a huge cash cow, not to mention a prime opportunity to engineer even more divorces for the other cash cow) so they changed the definitions of abuse, and started accusing all men of rape and abuse. They want permanent, perpetual victim status, and they want to profit by it in some way. That’s right now – next year maybe it’ll be something different.” endquote

pardon??? I have entered the Twilight Zone apparently

Maybe I’m missing something, but why would a woman want to promote men’s issues? It’s not like they’re disenfranchised as a group. I could understand maybe men’s health issues, or gay issues or some more targeted group, but men’s issues in general seems a little weird. And to do it in a romance novel form, which most would assume to be targeted at women, is doubly weird.

Personally, the first thing I thought of when I read “promote men’s issues through the romance novel” I thought I’d be reading about a man who needs Viagra or has prostate cancer or, at the very least, has testostorone poisoning.
