IS IT HYPOCRITICAL FOR FEMINISTS TO OPPOSE ALL MALE INSTITUTIONS, AND YET SUPPORT ALL FEMALE COLLEGES?

political :
[+] serious ballot by herzog

They oppose the first on the grounds that it discriminates based on gender and is thus unfair, and yet they support the second. Is that hypocritical?

Yes
No, it makes sense to give women their own colleges, but not men

If the situation were reversed, if a third of a traditionally male college were to turn out and protest the admittance of women then the feminists would have a field day with it and the story would be posted in the headlines of just about every newspaper in the country for a week. As is, this is probably all we're going to hear about it.
Woah!

I almost answered completely differently! What a difference a hyphen makes! You don't mean 'all male' and 'all female' colleges ... you mean 'all-male' and 'all-female' examples, right?

It probably is hypocritical, if viewed in a strict, literalist manner. But that means their arguments are imprecise/ misplaced, not that their desired result is without merit.
Yeah, for some reason I get in trouble for using hyphenated words on here sometimes, says they're too long. So I try to avoid them.
If they really want equality then it is certainly hypocritical. The problem is that some feminists don't want equality, they want the inequality reversed.
feminazis
Im all in favour of the womans movement...

...I hate it when they just lie there :p

^^^I agree!
I'd heard it was possible to agree with Herzog but, until now, I'd never knowingly done it :)
Wow. her-blog's turning into Henry Makow, the creator of the borad game Scruples.
I have been noticing that everyone can be a hypocrite at one time or another!!
