Now we’ve come to where we are now: This era of gaming which started with the Wii U, and the mere proposition of Anita Sarkeesian’s original campaign. The rumblings that would lead to the Quinnspiracy and #GamerGate proper were already visible.…

Men need to change… the rest of us are fine!
This piece is inspired by an article (not a full answer to it) published in the New York Times on April 4th, 2016. It’s written by Andrew Reiner and entitled “Teaching men to be emotionally honest”. You’ll find the original article here:

The Cell of the Innocent
In Spain, virtually all discussion about men’s rights has something to do with the current legislation on gender violence. And for a very good reason: our equivalent to the Violence Against Women Act (the LIVG) is one of the most aggressive and feminist-inspired in the world.…
