Of all things to focus on, feminists have chosen to highlight domestic violence on a day dedicated to love. Eve Ensler’s commercialized social justice movement, which has renamed Valentine’s day “V-Day” (the V is for Vagina), is staging an attention-grabbing action designed to promote her business and make the rest of us uncomfortable.
If you’ve caught whisperings about One Billion Rising, then you’ll probably have some sense of the scale of playwright and activist Eve Ensler’s vision for women.
The award-winning author of The Vagina Monologues wants, quite simply, to end violence against women and girls, and her latest project One Billion Rising (based on the statistic that 1 in 3 women on the planet will be beaten or raped during their lifetime) requires women and men to ‘rise up’ in the street today. Or in other words: dance.
59-year-old Eve Ensler is a hustler. She’s one of the last feminists to make a successful business out of the movement, and she’s still plugging away. As the older generation of feminists starts to approach retirement, however, these kinds of things will slowly fade away.
Although the extended lifespan that most people enjoy in the modern world has its obvious benefits, one of the drawbacks is that we have to put up with dated protest movements for far longer than previous generations.

“Although the extended lifespan that most people enjoy in the modern world has its obvious benefits, one of the drawbacks is that we have to put up with dated protest movements for far longer than previous generations.”
Amen to that statement.
Another drawback to having to put up with feminists is that they commit statistic rape every chance they can get.
The beast that won’t go away , SAY Eve ensler three times in the mirror and ,this women’s vagina will appear like the Chupacabra to the MRA .
Its best to not even speak of the hideous beast .
“best to not speak of the hideous beast”.
No disagreement here.
Hustlers will always be with us. Feminists are nothing if not clever for picking a good group to hustle, smarter than crack dealers even.
While other feminists are complaining about social justice in America from their cushy offices in Manahattan and DC, she’s directing her influence towards war-torn third world countries in Africa, so I’ll give her that much.
The whole concept of demanding an end to violence against women by spontaneously dancing in public – is about as frivolous as The Vagina Monologues was (as a serious work of theatre), but yet it appeals to women because it’s ethereal, female centric and childishly ungrounded in reality.
If we could stop violence against women, we could stop murder.
What about violence against fetuses?
At least half of them are potential women.
If you see someone being violent against a woman, DO NOT intervene on your own. Call the police and have them handle the situation. With a Billion women predicted to be raped or beaten, it seems to be a very common occurance. Violence and/or rape against women is happening everyday around you, you just don’t see it – kinda like patriarchy. Keep yourself safe first.
Just when you thought the SlutWalks were receding into history now we got One Billion Attention Whores.
“Of all things to focus on, feminists have chosen to highlight domestic violence on a day dedicated to love.”
The opening sentence is what particularly struck me. Feminist ideologues are getting especially brazen now, hijacking an already female-centric day to promote further female interests, while simultaneously demonising men. Oh, but you better still buy her love with red roses, heart-shaped chocolates and a Hallmark card!
It’s like they’re joining the dots for us. It can’t be long until the majority wakes up and smells the bullshit being rubbed in their faces.
Not sure how events you don’t attend or interact with ruin your day…
Amanda, not sure why you care whether an event ruins a “misogynist’s” day.

If I happen catch them dancing in a provocative manner out of the corner of my eye this may incite penile tissue engorgement, thus making me feel guilty and ashamed of my male sexuality.
You guys said eve ensler and Iv been holding my wallet all night . This is somehow going to cost . A vagina the size of a man has some high Maintenance.The fembots will be around soon I just know it .
Not gonna happen Keyster because feminists can’t dance.
Sick that the vangina monologues is award winning. It involved pedophelia, but look who is giving out these awards.
Me and hubby hate valentines day because any holiday involving food just makes it torture for us to fight are obesity.

“Not sure how events you don’t attend or interact with ruin your day…”
Tell that to the violent militants who protested Dr Warren Farrell’s presence at the U of T.
I think one thing that can be useful is focusing on actual numbers. Look, we’ll agree no-one should be beaten. Agreed? Good. Now, we have finite social resources to work against violence so we must be sure they go to where they’re needed most.
Okay, one third. That’s larger than the number of people in political parties. One would think that would be enough to create a social movement on its own. Are we sure that number is correct…?
Eve Ensler continues to fight against her own pathological ‘penis envy’. It shows in every absurd anti male diatribe of hers.
When the vaginas in the “Vagina Monologues” talked, the women filled audiences hooted and applauded; and to think that men actually marry these physically grown yet adolescent minded beings.
@geographybeefinalisthimself
That’s known as “data rape”.
She handing out vagina reconstructive surgery vouchers like the ones you get for a free trip , In the Mail .Just give her your Visa number and most women get the scam .
But The delusional feminist is on board for the tour . In most societies we would protect the weak from such hideous acts of Thievery .
But ,In america the worst things come free of charge , The Its never the 11 dollar drink or the lunch bill . Its the syphilis that’s long remembered .
Cunts like this where bred in a era of free love witch . Brought us Aids , drug resistant gonorrhea, The crack culture and feminism . Make no mistake this whore is there selling crack to teenage girls and doing a total psyche fuck on them the spitting them back at the Males that are trying to keep order .
Its always the# 1 prostitute that turns out the weaker females The only reason that beast would be in Africa is to address the fields for cultivation of Poppy .
Remember Drugs and Sex was always the predetermining reason / fact of feminism .
Women will dance to prevent violence? Will they also and eventually take off all their clothes as they do for so many other causes?
The phenomena of women exposing themselves for an assortment of causes has been on the rise. Is such behavior genetic to the female? Is it some biological imperative? It’s as if women have something to prove.
This occurs even in social situations where there is no ’cause’ to do so. I’ve seen women hike their dresses up and of course there is the ubiquitous showing off of legs.
The ‘mystery’ of the female has vanished. They are now seen in all their cellulite glory.

“As the older generation of feminists starts to approach retirement, however, these kinds of things will slowly fade away.”
Ah, you mean the 2nd Wave Feminist?
Well, you still got 3rd (and 4th ?) wave, but I do have to agree that the baby boomer Feminist are the worst. It is great that the whole generation will, as put in the article, “soon fade away.”
P.S. I’m a descendant of them…that says something.
zimmy The baby boomers have allot to answer for,but feminist will fade away when the goverment goes belly up.
I have a good idea of where the next set of meteorites should fall!
V-Day?
I like that.
It means Vasectomy Day, yes?
That would be a good move for the MRM: turn Valentine’s Day into Vasectomy Day

But do not be concerned, it’s just a joke…
A few dozen marched in Portland. They marched downtown. If you look at a crime map there are less than 1% rapes downtown. Why not march in the areas where the rapes are. Same reason feminists get bent about magazine ads in the USA but not acid attack in Arab countries. Priorities.
