(53,032 posts)Do you have studies that show rapists or serial killers who target women are overwhelmingly Republican? Do you have evidence that Democratic men don't beat their female partners while Republicans do? I can tell you many of us have experience that contradict your assumption.
And what of some of the Duers who have flamed out by revealing themselves as misogynists? The recently PPR'd Vashta Neranda, who threatened rape and death against a feminist here, is the most recent example. Funny how the folks whom he so often sided with in debates about gender haven't uttered a word of disapproval about his intensely misogynistic threats, even when repeatedly brought to their attention, and even as they continue to bemoan the "radfems" (which evidently means feminists who dare to speak in public) they see as the bane to this site. What am I to make of someone who chooses to speak out about women who express concern about rape on college campuses or 30 day sentence for child rapists but isn't concerned that a member who threatened rape and death against a fellow DUer?
