		<description><![CDATA[You state that Anon proves that men are jerks. There is no concrete evidence to suggest that Anon is a man. Furthermore, Anon didn&#039;t call anyone a stupid whore. All Anon said was &quot;stupid whores.&quot; That is an incomplete sentence and therefore possesses no valid meaning. 
 
More importantly, even if Anon is a man who is a jerk, he does not prove that men are jerks; the only thing he proves is that a man is a jerk (specifically him). ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;ALL OF YOU ARE SCUM.&quot; 
 
&quot;And YES there is a difference between men and women! YES, you know what it is?? Men who go through the same SHlT as YOU, won&#039;t go on the internet and WHINE and PLEAD FOR ATTENTION.&quot; 
 
Charles, you disgust me. You almost disgust me as much as the one who wrote this article. Do you know why? Because in your attempt to make your argument against sexism against men more offensive and powerful to its target, you go too far and produce sexism against women. It&#039;s misogynistic to imply that despite the fact that women and men go through the same things, men suck it up while women go online and whine about it. Also, it&#039;s not true. These particular women fit that statement, but women in general do not. It&#039;s also misogynistic to say that all women are scum. 
 
Now, at first philosophical glance, it may seem reasonably justified to respond to misandry with misogyny; one may look at this situation as a battle of the sexes, as a situation in which women are insulting men, and men must therefore insult women to produce an appropriate response. This view of the matter is sexist in both directions; women in general have not insulted men, only specific women, and you, a man, as the responding party, are not &quot;men;&quot; you are a man; as such, the specific women, who are not &quot;women&quot; in general, have not insulted you specifically, but rather &quot;men&quot; in general. While this situation may seem to be a battle of the sexes, it is in fact a battle of several individual people *over* the sexes. Therefore, properties of those individuals may not be assumed as properties of the pertinent collectives to which they belong. Men in general are not to be blamed for being jerks, but rather several specific men; likewise, women in general are not to be blamed for so presumptuously and all-too-eagerly making this mistake, but rather several specific women. For instance, suppose there exists a woman who does not believe that men are jerks and/or who does not whine about it on the internet. If that were the case, then your insults geared toward the general universal of a woman would be highly offensive and unwarranted to this particular woman. That is almost certainly the case, and by generalizing about women, you are unwarrantedly slandering every woman who does not fit that generalization. Likewise, every man who is not a jerk is unwarrantedly slandered by this article. Two wrongs don&#039;t make a right; they just make a bigger wrong. Charles, Liza, you two make me sick. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Men do NOT see women as fucking TOOLS you stupid, partial, sexist, skanky SHlT. ALL OF YOU ARE SCUM. This is a prime example of the ugliest product the minerals of this planet have to offer. If you BELEIVE in this you ARE a tool and SHOULD BE USED AS A TOOL,  because thats all you have to offer to humanity. And YES there is a difference between men and women! YES, you know what it is?? Men who go through the same SHlT as YOU, won&#039;t go on the internet and WHINE and PLEAD FOR ATTENTION. If you had the slightest shread of intellect, you would see that you are wrong. And when you someday look back at yourself, I hope you can scrape together enough human decency to hate yourself. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This article &amp; blogger seems to be a very ignorant dumbass. 
You realize the brain does NOT have a seperate part for every single function it does... its nearly fking smaller than 2 fists but it basically processes infinite data, no surprise that it uses the same part to do more than 1 thing. 
Stupid whores. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Do you now? 
 
... I&#039;m beginning to believe that perhaps the conclusions of this study pertain to most human men or even all human men rather than simply the few who were observed. However, I cannot believe that they pertain to me because I know otherwise. All human men may be the same for all I know; all I know is that I&#039;m different, and if I&#039;m not innately different, then I will *make* myself different, even if that means brain surgery, and if being different makes me no longer a man, if being different makes me something other han a human being, then so be it. I refuse to tolerate this prejudice, even if it is correct. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Only if the man is actually checking you out. If he isn&#039;t, there&#039;s no reason to make yourself uncomfortable. This study proved that when a man is checking a woman out, he loses his capacity for empathy, but it did nothing to prove that when a man is capable of checking a woman out, he always checks a woman out. In fact, I have personally disproved this hypothesis; I was already well aware that sexual arousal decreases capacity for empathy, and because my capacity for empathy is already impaired due to the fact that many of my mirror neurons are Neanderthal mirror neurons rather than human mirror neurons, whenever I see a woman I&#039;m capable of checking out, I tend to keep my eyes focused on her face to preserve what little capacity to empathize with human beings I innately possess. ]]></description>
