Thank God for blogging and bloggers...... Much of the most meaningful
discussion on men and mens issues seems to be coming from the blog
world these days. Contrast the freedom of discussion vs. Forbes mag
istelf - a controversial article appears, is yanked because the
feminists roared, then reappears in an edited, doctored form with a
"rebuttal column" side by side. Shows you who really owns the
traditional print media.

Very good point. The way this Forbes article has been treated teaches us
even more than the content of the article itself.

Sounds like sour grapes to me, 'Jayne'.

Sounds like the feminists couldn't take someone expressing an opinion
they didn't like, so they threw a fit. What is it about free speech
they don't like?

Ben, free speech is what happened with this article. A jerk wrote a
piece of sexist ***, and women responded. That is a celebration of
free speech. And the article written just made insecure men look more
insecure.

But then blogging ones way
into the blogosphere is really the ONLY way bitter boys have to have
their dirty laundry aired.

Blogs have become very influential--witness what happened to Kerry in
the last election. The best thing about blogs is that their content
can't be censored by the mass media or by an irate special interest
group.

Let's look at what happened to Kerry in the last election. Today
everyone views Kerry as being vindicated. So the blogg was short lived
crappola. And even John McCain agreed that it was bogus. So, you seem
to prefer to baffle them with bull*** in order to have your needs met.
That is hardly a moral position to take, Ben.

I'm just pleased to not live down wind of> all that. :-)

Soooo many responses, so little time.

Yes, but I can smell false news a mile away.
