“I’m good now I should be able to treat you as though the bad things I did never happened” is exactly my family. And pretty much a clear sign of an unrepentant abuser.
And I have to listen to my family talking about my brother with “oh isn’t so sad he has to have his crime follow him around for the rest of his life.”
I am perfectly willing to hold a crime...

I can has more fainting erasure and portraying WOC as a bloodthirsty mob Ms.ann ?
What in the everloving hell? The HELL? People are trying to “take Hugo down” for “sport?” So feminism isn’t about Hugo, it’s about women and survivors - unless that requires her to make any kind of strong statement that might hurt someone’s...

thecurvature:
(My feelings that Hugo is neither particularly redeemable nor worthy aside.)
This is about who we think has the right to speak to and for women about women and their lives, issues, and concerns — and whether that group ought to include men with known histories of abuse, let alone those who seem far more self-absorbed than repentant.
This is about whether or not women who are...

Jill at Feministe responds to the "Hugo Business" →
Participating in a coordinated take-down is not something I am going to do. And if that’s interpreted as a lack of commitment to feminism, or taking Hugo’s “side,” I personally think that’s ridiculous but so be it. There is a tension here between embracing the possibility of radical personal change and also centering victims of violence. As the moderator of a feminist community, I choose to...

Anonymous asked: I have to admit that as an MRA I love that Hugo is being thrown under the bus. For years it has been our opinion that this asshole is a benevolent sexist, narcissist and bully. It was only a matter of time. So I hear that he'll be teaching 'Men and Masculinity'? A guy who attempts to emasculate his ideological opponents? That's funny. Come to think of it, its not such a great...

GTFO of my feminism, "pandagon"
galesofnovember:
lilacturtl:
So Marcotte’s a big ole Internet Atheist and “feminist” celebrity, but she’s got her lips firmly affixed to the rear end of Hugo Schwyzer—“born again” evangelical and woman-hater. She hates snuggies, crocs, Olive Garden, and other things that remind her of the fact that the country is mostly composed of “icky” lower middle class people in flyover states, and...

a hero for rapists who don’t want to believe they are rapists, sure
Looks like someone is going around to all the ask boxes of everyone who opposes Hugo.
Cool.
Stay classy, Hugo stans. Keep digging your hero’s grave.

nemesissy:
as pleased as I am that Hugo Schwyzer is no longer going to be teaching Women in American Society after the fall, I am way unsettled by the fact that he will still be teaching ‘Men and Masculinity’.
Granted, it’s harder to find academics working in the masculinity-focused arm of gender studies, but, seriously. I think, alongside the racism and the humblebragging and...

missvoltairine:
My feminism is not about Being A Feminist; my feminism is not about the importance of maintaining a feminist identity. My feminism is about gender as a lens through which to look at the political sphere. One lens of many. My feminism is about taking action inspired by a deep, embodied understanding of the importance of women, women’s contributions, women’s histories, etc.

Reasons to Continue Blogging And Hating Hugo...
friendlyangryfeminist:
He is a rapist. And when men “accidentally” rape women he says that the survivor is partly to blame for not making it clear enough when she wasn’t consenting.
He tried to murder his ex-girlfriend.
He thinks it’s dangerous to be a feminist all the time, comparing it to being in a cold body of water.
He’s a racist.
He fetishizes lesbians.

– The Accidental Rapist — The Good Men Project
Hugo Schwyzer, folks. This is an essay in which a man tells his readers about how he willfully and repeatedly disregarded his partner’s negative responses to his sexual advances, and then insists that she played an equal part in the situation because she...

brogigayo:
he centers his voice, as the perpetrator. and that’s completely fucked up.
he talks about how he “accidentally” raped his girlfriend several times. it’s all about him, how he felt disgusted with himself, how he couldn’t get a hard on after hearing the news. it’s about how women need to be more vocal, instead of about how men need to check in with their partners and look for...

here's the thing
milkeemountainmama:
the *perpetrator* of a crime doesn’t get to decide his own methods of accountability. that is perhaps the most fucked up thing about all of this. the way “transformative justice” has been rewritten such that people are honestly saying “what more do you want him to do??? he’s created accountability measures that he’s following!” etc
transformative justice is NOT about...

Help Hugo find a public venue where he can do 'the...
Come on, now! He asked. And everyone knows when a poor ol’ redemption-seeking, ex-girlfriend-almost-murdering, students-sleeping-with, mansplaining-good-Christian-fella asks for things, he must be given them.
He MUST.
Here are a few of my proposed venues:
A worm farm. For science!

He says here they knew about the murder attempt: http://twitter.com/#!/hugoschwyzer/status/158436843220766720
There’s reason for any of them to be lying, really; HitNS could just be covering their own asses and saying they fired him so they look better. So who knows really.
The plot thickens!
I probably won’t...
