I accept that there is a genuine distinction between serious feminists and women who are influenced by feminist thought.
I just don't have much time for either group.
Basically, a woman who believes garbage to the point that its spoiling her interactions with me will get a clear warning that her attitude is something I won't put up with - at that point if she wants to, we can talk, if she understands me, she'll drop her feminist ways. If she ignores the warning, I'm not one to prolong the contact.
Thats not being part of the problem. Thats just choosing the exit instead of trying to win a woman over. Why shouldn't I - its not as if I don't have options?? If her parents let her grow up believing feminist trash - why should I take it upon myself to educate her? To me thats just patronising her.
If most decent guys acted like me, the feminists (and those who unintentionally act like feminists) would be single long-term, sooner or later they'd work out how to get themselves a decent guy.
And as a postscript: I don't know enough about US women to make generalisations about them - I for one am not part of the trend amongst British/Canadian men that worries you! There are probably a lot more guys like me than you think!
PS - Next time you categorise us British men along with the Canadians, we will not be so forgiving!!
