‘Angry White Men’

Is there hope that the ugly, hateful era of the angry white male might come to an end in the United States?
Michael Kimmel, author of Angry White Men: American Masculinity at the End of an Era, believes that the incendiary rage of many resentful white males will ultimately succumb to an altered cultural context.
"Angry white men rage for our attention, yes, but that era of assumed male entitlement to all the positions of power and wealth is coming to an end." Kimmel told Truthout. "Men can be dragged kicking and screaming into that inevitable future, or we can accept it and ask what it means for us."

It came to an end quite some time ago thanks to wonderful things like Affirmative Action and Feminism.

Yes, Liberalism sucks.

Michael Kimmel is just a pseudo-intellectual who is on the look out for more grants and handouts for his ridiculous studies, papers and books.

This article exposed that fool:

From the link I posted:

To begin, the Center will host a series of monthly seminars and two to three large forums per year, which will build and gather a community of academics and activists…

Now we see the critical phrase: “academics and activists“. This has been the collaboration of Gender Studies people that turned the university into a place to promote feminism. Activists on campuses? Well, what else can one do when you don’t have a legitimate interest in the scholarly pursuit of knowledge?

…in the local area.

That means New York City.

The forums called “Challenging Conversations” will focus on politically divisive issues, such as prostitution, sex trafficking, the pornography debate, the boy crisis in schools, and more, noted Kimmel.

Only the last item has anything to do with boys, men and masculinity. Even the “boy crisis” is a direct rip off of Warren Farrell, and is there for effect, not practice. All the rest is feminism;

Angry white men?  That's impossible.  You can't be angry and be happy at the same time.

Happiness Is ... Being Old, Male and Republican

Americans grow happier as they age, surveys find. And a new Pew Research Center survey shows the tendency is holding up as the economy tanks.

Happiness is a complex thing. Past studies have found that happiness is partly inherited, that Republicans are happier than Democrats, and that old men tend to be happier than old women.

He's decided to have as the advisory board for his men's study center these find objective women.


"True to his distorted understanding of “men,” his board of advisors for the Center includes such experts on human males as Gloria Steinem, Jane Fonda, Carol Gilligan and Eve Enslar."


Next thing you know they'll start a women's study center with an advisory board that consists of  Ike turner and Chris Brown

Members of the Center’s advisory board include Gloria Steinem, Martin Duberman, Jane Fonda, Eve Ensler, Carol Gilligan, James Gilligan, Frank Ochberg, Gov. Madeleine Kunin (Vermont), Catharine Stimpson and Hampden-Sydney College President Chris Howard.

“This emerging field is international and interdisciplinary,” said Professor Kimmel. “Much work on masculinities uses the prisms…

Prisms:This is his nod to the LGBT rainbow which is central to Women’s Studies, led almost entirely by radical lesbian feminists.

…of feminist theory, multiculturalism and queer theory…

All buzzwords for what has ruined academe.

That book's premise is a "study" the fool did "of the extreme right, white supremacists and neo-Nazis in the United States, Germany and Scandinavia,..."

So, to that idiot there is no extreme left. He is not even aware that he is already part of the extreme left.

Just another white-hating liberal racist.
