Hugo: Rad, do you…
Hugo: Rad, do you honestly believe that Q Grrl’s whopping generalization about all Christians was less offensive than my reply?
Whether her claims were correct or incorrect, and whether they are offensive or inoffensive, they are not based out of simple ignorance of Christian feminist thought. I think it was a mistake for you to treat her on the presumption that they were, particularly in the pedagogical tone that you chose to take.
I hope you don’t mean to equate “radical” with “man-hating.”
I don’t. But I have a different view of what constitutes “man-hating” from the view that most anti-feminists have, so I don’t take charges of “man-hating” in their mouths very seriously or feel any particular need to cater to their views by trying to distance myself or others from the “charge,” such as it is.
