I can't see what's wrong if feminist organization want to behave in
self-destructive ways.   It is *their* (feminists') organizations,
and they can destroy them as *they* (feminists) like.

"The continuation of earnings gap between men and women, the decimation of
affirmative action in order to protect white men from `reverse discrimination',
the rise of male victories in child custody cases - all of these attest to the
