To two old-school liberal Democrats: David L. McMillen,
the one who inspired me to become a college professor;
and Melvin C. Ray, the one who went out of his way to make sure that
my dreams of becoming a professor came true.
NOTE TO THE READER
D UE TO THE GRAPHIC LANGUAGE USED BY MANY FEMINISTS quoted in this book, the author and editorial staff have replaced such language with various icons, images, and abbreviations. We are sure, intelligent reader, that you will catch on quickly.
Also, it gives me unspeakable joy to sue many of these feminists mentioned in the book. Ive decided thats the only language they understand. As should be clear in the text, some of the letters that follow were actually sent, and others were not. Some letters have been modified slightly for publication.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
F IRST, I MUST THANK DAVID FRENCH FOR A PHONE CALL HE made to me in December 2005. That call led to a decision to coauthor a book, which, in turn, led me to my agent, D.J. Snell. D.J. suggested thatin addition to the book David and I were writingwe each submit a solo-authored manuscript. Thanks to Bernadette Serton and the nice folks at Penguin you are now reading my published solo manuscript.
I would like to thank the kind folks at Springfield Armory for making great guns and for giving me free ones. A similar tip of the hat goes to the folks at La Flor Dominicana. I love their cigars, especially when theyre free. Ill be expecting a free box for every thousand copies this book ends up selling.
Also, I give a big thanks to the people at Salem Communications, who pay me to write columns. Without them I wouldnt have so many readers sending me free guns and free cigars.
I would also like to thank Wal-Mart for its persistent exploitation of cheap Asian labor. That exploitation really helps bring down the price of ammunition.
Thanks to Pat Coyle at the Young Americas Foundation. Without him, every one of my speeches about free speech would be a free speech. Now that Im getting paid for these speeches, I can hire illegal aliens to do all the things I dont want to do around the house.
And thanks to all of those people who are responsible for global warming. I really like global warming because I hate the cold and Im really not concerned about future generations. I hope this isnt offensive or hurtful to those of you who have grandchildren.
Finally, thanks to Phyllis Schlafly for her kind words of encouragement. Because of her support, I have come to realize that criticizing feminism is one of my greatest gifts. Maybe thats because its so easy to do. Regardless, it sure is a fun way to make a living.
FEMINISTS SAY THE DARNDEST THINGS
INTRODUCTION
S OME TIME AROUND 3:00 P.M., FEBRUARY 20, 2006:
As I write the opening lines of my second book, I am sitting in my office at the University of North Carolina-Wilmington with a nagging headache. It probably wasnt caused by the giant poster of a condom hanging on my office door. I think the posterplaced there by a campus feminist groupis kind of funny. Under the condom it says: If shes feeling spunky, better wrap up your monkey. You have to admit it. Thats kind of funny.
Nor do I think the cause of my headache is the bickering I just heard during a lecture by a job candidateone who just happens to be a feminist. During the question-and-answer session following her lecture, two women got into an argument. One said that women are just as likely to engage in domestic violence as men. That made the other woman, a feminist professor, violently angry. She insisted that domestic violence is male dominated. She thinks that everything bad is male dominated. But thats not the cause of my headache. Headaches are bad so it must be a mans fault.
I dont even think my headache is related to the emergency faculty meeting just scheduled via e-mail by our chair, who just happens to be a feminist. The meeting is being called to discuss a division in our department caused by two Marxist professors who are supposedly trying to turn our proposed graduate program into a Critical Criminology program. For those of you who dont know, critical is a code word for communist. I wasnt going to mention it, but the two Marxists just happen to be feminists.
Maybe the source of my headache is the recent letter, written by a feminist to my dean and my chancellor, who also happens to be a feminist, calling for me to be fired. She wrote the letter because I wrote a little paragraph in my nationally published column suggesting feminists are intolerant of free speech. Maybe I shouldnt be allowed to say that.
Come to think of it, there is so much lunacy on this campus that is caused by feminists that theres really no way Ill ever pinpoint the exact cause of my headache. So Ill just put aside my concerns with this nagging headache and get down to the reason Im writing this book about feminists. Its one that can be summarized in a single sentence:
I want to find out why they hate us.
Indeed, feminists are among the most hateful creatures on this planet. Since they havent flown any planes into skyscrapers (at least not yet), we cant actually declare war on them. So maybe we should just borrow a line from campus liberals and simply find out why they hate us.
