ABOUT ME

In case anyone cares.

I'm in my 30s. I'm not married, and I have a decent job. Actually I'm a statistician. I've got a Masters degree in statistics and I'm a Fellow of the Royal Statistical Society.

One of the things that really annoys me about feminists is the way they distort and abuse statistics. They are just as bad, if not worse, than politicians. While I'm on the topic, Disraeli got it wrong when he said "There are lies, damned lies and statistics". What he should have said was "There are liars, damned liars and politicians". Or feminists, take your pick.

I've never really been a fan of feminism, but I'm getting less and less tolerant of it the older I get, and the more I learn. When I was younger I must have been quite innocent and naive. I can remember seeing "Women's Studies" listed in university prospectuses and wondering what it was, but not enough to actually find out. Why should I be interested in "Women's Studies"? If I'd known then, what I know now, I would have been pretty pissed off about it. These days I am really pissed off that my taxes are used in support that kind of thing in any way. That's one reason I agree with something I've read by Angry Harry (and probably others too). The most important thing to do, right now, for any MRA or antifeminist is to raise awareness of what is happening. To tell everyone they can the truth about feminism and all the damage it is doing to men and society.

Anti Feminist,

I have a blog too, and I've linked to yours. Please link to mine too, so we can all generate cross traffic.

Oh, you're SPOT ON about statistics! Though I didn't make it my major, I had a class in it many years ago. Though I don't remember much of it, other than the different types of averages, I remember enough to know that, in the right hands, statistics can be made to say almost anything at all. Disraeli was right.

BTW, I agree with you on feminism. Though I've never been a fan of it, I didn't begin to realize how dangerous it is until Rush Limbaugh, a conservative commentator and trailblazer in the 'alternative media', started pointing out their BS on his talk show and in his books. With the advent of the Internet, I'm downright against feminism and all it stands for.

Anyway, I have to sign off. I've linked to you, and if you could return the favor, I'd appreciate it! Also, I know enough to know that what you say about stats is true. Finally, feminism is one of the most dangerous ideologies to come down the pike. Have a good day, mate...
