Eminem made a major error, and one that
has had all sorts of horrible repercussions for all sorts of innocent
women. He had a mother who had been terrible to him, and he had the
right to hate her. But he then generalized his anger at his mother
upon the whole female gender. There is no room for this error. Kim is
not responsible for the actions of his mother, and it is wrong that
she has to suffer as a result.
Many among misogynists think that all
women are the same. Are all men? Are you the same as Jeffrey Dahmer
or Ted Bundy or Adolf Hitler? Is your father the same? Is your son?
When I see men having opinions such as
these, I want to punch them in the face. It is my sister you're
talking about; my mother; my grandmother. I have no interest
whatsoever in having sexual relationships with these women; but I
will protect them from idiots who would equate them with Catherine
McKinnon or Eve.
I get tired of innocent people getting
blamed for the actions of people who are guilty. There are all sorts
of people who keep abusing the Jews because of the crucifixion of
Jesus; but that was 2000 years ago, and most of the people who judge
the Jews have much greater – and much more recent – atrocities in
their history. Similarly there are many black people in America who
hate the white man because of the early 19th century
institution of slavery; but what they forget is that 500,000 white
men in the North died in the Civil War to end slavery for them.
Eminem is an idiot, and his followers
are greater idiots. Their girlfriends are not responsible for the
sins of their mothers or Third Wave feminists. My daughter is not
responsible for such things either. That someone shares a gender with
another person does not make them guilty of the other person's
misdeeds. There will be good men and bad men, and there will be good
women and bad women. It is wrong that the better ones in either
gender be punished for the sins of scum.
