Women Push Back Against Feminist Vilification of Boys and Men
April 17, 2025 – Once viewed as a pure and vital force, modern-day feminism increasingly is seen as intellectually and morally bankrupt. This is especially true in countries like the United Kingdom, where feminist ideology has inserted itself into virtually every segment of society.
The latest example of the corruption is Nicola Murray. By day, Murray was leading a support group for abused women at Brodie’s Trust (1). By night, she was physically and sexually abusing four children. On March 26, a jury at Edinburgh Sheriff Court found Murray guilty on all charges (2).
Another example is Charlotte Proudman, who has orchestrated the feminist domestic violence movement in the UK over the past decade. Proudman’s radical worldview can be gleaned from comments she made about The Power, an online movie about teenage girls who acquire the ability to administer electric shocks to unsuspecting persons (3). Proudman applauded the feminist-inspired film with this wacky commentary:
“This is quite possibly the most empowering feminist drama I’ve ever watched….The gross gender inequality embedded in society is met — for the first time on our screens — with unapologetic female violence.” (4)
Shrugging off criticisms of her “entitled sensationalism” (5), Proudman has driven the media campaign that assiduously ignores female-perpetrated violence, constantly resorts to hyperbole over fact, and relentlessly seeks to play on female insecurities.
Last month the campaign to denigrate men morphed into a national frenzy when Netflix released Adolescence, a fictional account of a male teenager who stabbed a female classmate. Commentator Matt Walsh has derided the show as “completely far-fetched” (6). Unbelievably, the make-believe film that vilifies and shames boys is now being screened in secondary schools across the United Kingdom (7).
But now, women around the world are pushing back against the disinformation campaign, saying, “No more:”
- Laurie Couture: “Not only is this show a dramatized, fictional story with little basis in reality, it is most insidiously a piece of political propaganda.” (8)
- Janis James: “There is no real-world precedent for a boy committing murder solely due to exposure to manosphere content in the UK.” (9)
- Nicole Russell: “’Adolescence’ promotes a political agenda, and the narrative is built around that.” (10)
- Jennifer Sey: The CEO of XX-XY Athletics released a video featuring a strong pro-masculinity message: Men are “indispensable to a healthy society, to creating strong families, chivalrous sons, and fearless daughters. So here’s to masculinity.” The video garnered 600,000 views in only five days (11).
Destroying men will destroy the family. And destroying the family will destroy our societies.
