Re: FIGHT BACK - READ SLOWLY & CAREFULLY | | This point is true with a lot of issues. If your oppenents can't refute your facts, they tell you to "watch your tone." Quote:
One of the most frustrating things is watching new activists, particularly well educated and professional men, “discover” that the reason why the movement never makes progress is because the Fathers Rights crowd have an image problem: they present themselves and are perceived as angry men who have become unbalanced by the bad experiences of their divorce. Politicians often take these newbies aside and give them the “inside word” in private meetings.
The gullible new Fathers Rights activist, champing at the bit to gain respectability, then spends inordinate amounts of time, energy and resources trying to educate these politicians, making sure that they themselves present the proper image, eschewing anger and avoiding any negative talk about women or feminism, and above all, never showing anger.
I submit that one of the reasons for failure is that there haven’t been enough angry fathers together at the same time and place.
