Hey @pzmyers
Cherry picking shit taking going down:
Tweet from Jeremy Stangroom (@PhilosophyExp), at May 29, 10:08 AM - P Z Myers ignorantly reproducing the "male feminist" truism that actually feminism is about addressing concerns that affect men & women. (With men first in his formulation.) No it bloody isn't. At least that's not its history, though given where it seems to be heading... https://t.co/nwnHdTbPl9

@I_Will_Wobble He presupposes that men can have interests independent of those of women. We're the same damned species. All movements that address imbalances are advantageous to the whole.
@pzmyers that's the thing I don't grasp about that way of thinking. It assumes some sort of binary (ie male v female) "humanism" (I'm being gracious to call it that I think).
