I have found a page on your website:
Dealing with Antifeminism
You show a picture of an "All Women Are Bitches" Knifeblock.
However, either you yourself, or someone else has purposefully altered this picture from the original which is attached to this e-mail WITH the proper disclaimer that seems to have conveniently disappeared...
I find this extremely dishonest of you, and it only supports anti-feminist arguments that honesty and honour have absolutely no home within feminist "logic."
This picture was made as a protest against the BLATANT promotion of deadly violence against males, which in its country of origin is SUPPOSED to be illegal. However, it is not. It would however, if it were an "All Women are Bitches" Knifeblock, wouldn't it?
Shame on you for your own blatant propaganda and manipulations.
The more that people like you resort to this kind of dishonesty, the more you steel the spines of those who want to make your sick agenda disappear.
I would be more than happy to highlight this dishonesty of yours all over the internet, if you truly believe that this is the proper way for you convince others of your cause. In fact, I know of lots of people who would delight in such blatant proof of feminist dishonesty.

OUR RESPONSE:
We found that image on an anti-feminist website.

HIS RESPONSE:
I don't doubt that is where you found it. It can be found in many places, and certainly feminists don't care two hoots about the violence men suffer so I believe you that you didn't find it at Pandagon. But it pretty much always appears with the disclaimer that states WHY it is the way it is. I doubt it was altered by an anti-feminist, and if it was, it would have been in a post about the "All Men Are Bastards" Knifeblock. The form you have posted is altered, and therefore purposefully innaccurate and misleading. Also, now you know it is innaccurate and misleading, which would make you somewhat libellous, don't you think? You now have a copy of the original.
If I find a purposefully altered quotation, and use it while full well knowing that it is altered to be misleading... that would make me a ???
Like I said, I don't have any qualms about spreading it around what you have on your site. I care about your cause as little as you care about mine. I, however, adhere to some basic morals - most likely to my disadvantage. But anti-feminists just love it when feminist sites get caught with their panties down. Posting that picture in an altered form is blatantly dishonest.
Do you support violence against human beings? This is a protest against violence - period. Yet, your dishonesty has taken a protest against violence, shown said protest in an altered form, and you insinnuate innaccurately that men are encouraging violence against women - and you know it!
What are you going to do with your moral superiority?
OUR RESPONSE:
Question:
Do you believe women have the right to freedom of speech?
To vote?
To divorce?
To be free from domestic abuse?
To bear children when they wish to?
We find your response regarding the knife block image quite amusing, but frankly not much of one. The image was cropped because it took up too much space and felt too much like an advertisement.
You seem to have taken it rather personally. It is just an image. Get over it.
Also, with regards to the questions above we believe that if you answer No to any of them is basically a vote in favour of slavery.
Because when you take away a person's rights that is exactly what happens: Slavery.
We'd like to pound that idea into your thick skull, hence this email, but we don't really expect it to work. Most men are stuck in their ways and a lost cause after the age of 24.
In conclusion that article "Dealing with Antifeminism" isn't meant for you. It is meant for our female readers and those men who haven't been blinded by misogyny and bitterness.
Sincerely,
Charles Moffat and Suzanne MacNevin
(We found this guy particularly idiotic and funny. He fussed and fussed over a simple image that we cropped and he used that as proof that feminists are somehow corrupt liars. He basically went on an anti-feminist rant over nothing. We're guessing he is a deadbeat dad. If you do a Google search for his email "robfedders@yahoo.ca" you will find him active on a number of anti-feminist websites. Apparently he takes women hating very seriously.)
