maybe its 40% hate
30% strongly dislike
20% tolerate
10% love
i think the hate i've seen has just been so overwhealmingly ugly and loud that it seems more than it is ?
shit - i didnt even mention a lot of other stuff. like the lovely way japanese culturally value their women - among others, violent porn,
(i've actually seen - and i didnt know it was going to be this - porn where guys force themselves down a girls throat violently and hold her nose - making her choke, gag and puke. believe me - the girls dont enjoy themselves.
i've never seen a more vile example of the hatred of women in my life - it was fucking disgusting - not the puking - the thought that it could not only turn on the participant - but the viewers creating a demand for this garbage.
i'm sorry - but hate just keeps coming back.
by the way - i know people who love their wives ... but consider all other women to be unworthy bitches ... complete contempt (not as a misguided pro-wife chivalry - but a complete dislike ... it's bizzare..
and examples like this led me to believe that most women wont even know this exists - or believe it

You misunderstand me.
Here's the thing - I guess I'm making more of a semantic argument here. I'm not saying that "hate" is too strong at all. I think that the word "hate" is too
simplistic, Urge.
The reason why you see exploitation, sexploitation, snuff, abuse - Is because these cultures do not even see women as being remotely
equal to Men. It's a lack of respect and a lack of consideration for women being
other human beings. In this case, it's not necessarily about
hate (sometimes it is I am sure)... But ubiquitously, women are not considered as being
human to begin with; they're treated like animals, dogs servants. It's not
hate; it's a complete and utter disregard for female humanity.
The reason why men (in MM's example) refer to women as "bitches" has nothing to do with
hate - it's a complete lack of consideration or empathy. Patriarchy teaches us that the
weaker sex is put on this planet to serve as the
empty vessel for our procreation and servitude of
Men. It's not always "hate." That is WAY too simple. If you don't consider a woman to be
human, it's disrespect, condescension, ignorance.
That's not to say that there
isn't hate. You just have to look at the issue more holistically.
