The actions that negatively impact society on all levels? Why do they have to negate these actions with propaganda?

If we didn't have men like the ones that are constantly posting their silly questions, we would not appreciate men who value freeedom and equality for all. Trollers like Happy Bullet are so fixated with women's rights that they babble on for hours and say nothing. What this shows all of us that he has a deep fear of women and is constantly trying to repudiate their gains to make his own insecurities less obvious. These men are truly intimidated and because of their own weakness cannot allow anyone to share in equality.

If they did, they would no longer be the pigs they are. The obvious ones, however, will usually get foiled by other more sensible people. The worst though are the men who pretend not to be sexist pigs but are! And almost as bad are the women who stand up for the sexist pigs and against other women...as if they weren't women too!
The major problem with sexism is the same that is true of racism...the more hidden kind. Sometimes it is done that way deliberately. However other times it is done unknowingly. Many people do not realize their own sexism and harm women that way as well. but the world is changing...we have a woman speaker and maybe will have a wonderful female president!
In the end though the worst people get it all back many times.

If they were able to take responsibilty for their terrible actions, then they wouldn't be chauvinistic or sexist. That's sort of the whole point.
What's the use of being an @sshole if you can't act like one?

sure they can take responsibility but they wont change or try to make it right. which means it wont do any good even if they say they take responsibility. But if you come across a sexist man and he appoligises and says he understands please dont disrespect his desire to be what you are asking for. or else it makes you just like the chauvinistic people you despise. most women never allow for the man to become better so they remain sexists and uncareing.

To 'sayyes" woman (above) who wrote: "And almost as bad are the women who stand up for the sexist pigs and against other women..." To her I say these women aren't "almost as bad": they are a thousandfold WORSE. They fail to recognise that it is a direct result of the efforts of their predecessors that they even have the right to vote, to have a bank account, to drive, to become educated...in short, to LIVE IN DIGNITY. These women are hypocrites and pathetic creatures.
To you who asked this question my short answer is "NO". A long answer involves my observation that the concepts of "responsibility" and "maturity" are alien to these throwbacks from a bygone era. These neanderthals commonly use projection to DISOWN RESPONSIBILTY for the s-h-i-t they cause:
Projection
… the distinct mechanism of projecting own unconscious or undesirable characteristics onto an opponent is called Freudian Projection.
"A defense mechanism in which the individual attributes to other people impulses and traits that he himself has but cannot accept. It is especially likely to occur when the person lacks insight into his own impulses and traits."
"The externalisation of internal unconscious wishes, desires or emotions on to other people. So, for example, someone who feels subconsciously that they have a powerful latent homosexual drive may not acknowledge this consciously, but it may show in their readiness to suspect others of being homosexual."
"Attributing one's own undesirable traits to other people or agencies, e.g., an aggressive man accuses other people of being hostile."
"The individual perceives in others the motive he denies having himself. Thus the cheat is sure that everyone else is dishonest. The would-be adulterer accuses his wife of infidelity."
"People attribute their own undesirable traits onto others. An individual who unconsciously recognises his or her aggressive tendencies may then see other people acting in an excessively aggressive way."
"Projection is the opposite defence mechanism to identification. We project our own unpleasant feelings onto someone else and blame them for having thoughts that we really have."
An individual who possesses malicious characteristics, but who is unwilling to perceive himself as a protagonist, convinces himself that his opponent feels and would act the same way.

Not any more likely than women taking responsibilitiy and accountability for their actions I guess.

No! We just lost our executive chef here at my work for sexual harrassment and he blamed everyone but himself for his actions!

I think Hillary has been asking the very same question! And the answer is still NO!
