Mostly you and I have agreed over the past few years of 'Net MRA noise.
What do you see as the critical mass "tipping point" strategy to get men's voices out into the MSM?
My point has always been just one small insight gained from being schooled in an elite feminist-ruled university.
Just this-- "THE PARTY THAT DEFINES THE RULES OF DISCOURSE WILL PREVAIL." We (men) can't think in languages that have been banned, right?
That is where men are today.
So logically, men need to begin again to speak in their actual voices.
You have proposed that men may have lost this natural power, through cynicism and estrangement from emotion ...defense mechanisms against the feminist total reality onslaught.

Hello, Roy.
I believe that the "tipping point" WRT to the MSM will come when it is no longer profitable to ignore men's voices and pander exclusively to women. When a man-bashing advertisement or product becomes the kiss of death to a company's profitability. Until that happens, men are living in a fantasy world if they expect anyone to suddenly start behaving ethically on this one issue when they do not on any other issue.
Yes, I believe that men have to learn to speak again in a male voice. That is one reason I include so much politically incorrect crudeness in my writing. It is similar to the way in which women have reclaimed the use of words like "****" or "bitch" and taken away the power of those words to shame them. I believe men must do the same. We are not medical students, so when we speak of a woman's genitals a non-sanitized man would use terms like "pussy" or "twat" instead of the sterilized "vagina."
The way forward is shown by the hexagram Ku - "work on what has been spoiled."
