Feministing.com, a blog "By and for young feminists," is celebrating being awarded the 2007 Blogger's Choice Award for Best Political Blog here and here.Supporters of Feministing.com's arch rival site and 2nd Place finisher AngryHarry.Com are, well, angry. They are screaming (here and here) that the competition was rigged, that Harry and his visitors have once again been victimized by the evil Feminazi regime that has a stranglehold over all media everywhere. When Angry Harry himself was asked if he had been violated by election rigging by the dominant gender he answered:
The outcry of righteous indignation of the men's rights activists (MRAs) of the so-called Men's Rights Movement (MRM) regarding the alleged election rigging of the Blogger's Choice Awards is not only somewhat humorous to any observer who has visited both sites, but it reveals many of the traits that keep the MRM from being recognized as a legitimate movement whatsoever.
Yes, of course they were rigged. And the whole thing turned out to be precious little more than some tinpot company trying to generate a name for itself. Some MRAs have even suggested that, next year, we should all maraud around its various comments sections and constantly expose it.
But, more importantly, it is imperative that MRAs realise that this company is no different from others - and this includes those in the mainstream media. Whether it's the BBC, Fox News, The New York Times or the Sun, these organisations have an agenda. And 'the truth' is ONLY important to them if it happens to support their agenda. If it doesn't, then the truth be damned.
If there is just one thing that I hope that Angry Harry has helped to expose, it is the unbelievably huge amount of dishonesty in which we are being constantly bathed - by powerful organisations of every persuasion.
DELUSIONS OF GRANDEUR
The MRM is currently made up of a contentious little cliques of injured men who gather in small forums and low-traffic blogs and rant and rave to each other about how their inadequacies are all due to their oppression at the hands of a brutal Feminist regime. Their little groups are so insular that after a while they begin to believe that the world is somehow listening to their crackpot theories, and somehow cares. The truth is that by any measure, AngryHarry.com is not even in the same LEAGUE as Feministing.com. Here are a few traffic and ranking comparisons:

LACK OF STYLE & ORGANIZATION
A throwback to Web .02, AngryHarry.Com is easily one of the most primitive, ugly, boori
sh and clumsily constructed sites on the Internet today. One reason Harry may be angry is that the only "graphics" at his disposal seems to be collection of horrendously embarrassing clip art (which probably came with DOS 1.0 floppy disk) that will bring you back to the era of IBM PS1s and dot matrix printers.If the Men's Rights Movement expects others to take it seriously, it needs to start taking itself a little more seriously... perhaps by learning from the opponents who have accomplished so much more than they have. And stop the clownish behavior

"WHAT DO YOU THINK? LEAVE A COMMENT"
That your dementia knows no bounds, Steele/Athena garbage. You're wrong again for the 97th time.
BTW, Steele/Athena cunt rag, if the MRM is so illegitimate, why are you so dreadfully fearful of it?? Your urine-soaked panties a tad too much for you, perhaps?
I'm not sure it's any surprise that feministing or the other female-oriented sites get more traffic and more posts blathering on about nothingness than the MRA blogs. Women tend to talk more in EVERY sphere - in person, on the phone, and in blog posts. In contrast, the impact that Angry Harry and others like him have had is reflected in the way men typically express themselves: through their actions. The marriage rate is tumbling precipitously, and many men (such as myself) say "never again". So we date women, sleep with them, even live with them - but do not commit to them and do not have children with them.
Which reminds me: Now would be a good time to invest in companies that sell cat food.
Anon: thanks for illustrating my points so well. Angry Harry vs. Feministing Part 2 will include, among other points, the fact that Feministing.com writers and editors are not afraid to use their real identities and post their actual credentials. Therefore, they have more credibility than little boys who throw rocks and call names from behind the bushes.
With feminist hate currently being taught in "women's studies" departments at over 700 colleges and universities in the US alone,
With most men out doing real work while females either sit home watching soaps and going on-line, or working at boring clerical jobs and surfing the web all day at their company's expense,
With feminist hate being promoted by all the major feminist dominated media,
With females flocking to a few powerful web sites while men go to thousands of recently created new sites,
It's not surprising at all that hundreds of thousands more worthless lazy females still waste their time on hate sites like Feministing
But, the real change is that so many more men are visiting men's action sites now than there were only a few years ago. The rapid growth of men's rights activists on-line over the past 5 years has got the feminazi really worried. They have gone from several decades of having a virtual media monopoly to a competition between their old established hate propaganda media and upstart men's group web sites and groups who no longer kowtow to their hate messages.
Stalin and her feminazi sisters are obviously very worried about Angry Harry, MikeeUSA, MasculistMan, Bob, and thousands of other men's web sites. Even the major media is starting to notice. Occasional news items showing the horrors of feminism are appearing on network television. And some politicians quietly support rights for fathers. The tied is turning, and Ms. Stalin and her ilk are very worried. That’s why she has this hate site going after men on the Internet.
Anonymous comment #1 and #2 is typical MikeeUSA-style. Troll-posting...
However Anonymous #3 is written by somebody else and is not a bad posting, this person should sign with a name to make him/her different from #1 and #2 comment.
I do not know, why Robin Steele is picking up 'Angry Harry' and tries to give this website a ridiculous image. It is not an all-out women hating website. It is reporting about men's problems - not all is even MRA related, like health care, some men's activity etc...
About real identities...
It depends, not all feminists are showing up with the real name...Who is Ginmar or JackGoff?
Who is Robin Steele?
While it is politically correct to talk bad about men, it is not correct to do it the other way - women are the victims, always - therefore men's rights activists often have no other choice but to remain anonymous.
About myself, I do not live in the USA and I am not an US-citizen, therefore I am not posting out of hiding.

Ah, but it's a wonderful thing to act like a troll. After all, Steele's useless human existence is that of a troll, as is her misandrist troll blog. It takes some trolls to fight feminazi trolls. Trolls beget trolls.
Comprende?
LOL! I would have said the SAME thing about feminism back when I was involved in it thirty years ago!
Look, angry harry is a research psychologist (I'm fairly sure I'm thinking of the right Harry, there are two). What he is doing is using his skills as best he knows to target a particular segment of the population. It works for some.
Feministing is a RELIGION! Do not think for a second it is anything else. It is a very anti-male and deeply bigoted religion.
Obviously feministing gets more hits: It would be crazy to think otherwise.
However, take the core ideas used and put them into everyday language and try them on the general population. Almost all will reject both. Harry EXPECTS to be rejected, he's not trying for everyone. Feministing really do think they are the salvation of the world, even as they take steps to kill everyone.
You're comparing apples and pineapples and wondering why they do not look alike.
Angry Harry is using humor and tongue in cheek parody to get his point across to a Primarily male Audience. He is not engaged in Advocacy Journalism. An entirely different animal all together.
This week it was reported that in the US last year there was 2.8 Million cases of STDs. Want to bet who is the majority of those cases? Women? You guessed right. That Female Doctors and Shrinks are warning of an impending Female Health Crisis is not sinking in to the Feminists.
As Amanda Marcotte talks about being grateful for Sex. The Self Professed Cum Guzzling Boozehound, her words by the way. Not my words.
Slut Feminism is doing real harm to young Women. And squandering their real value to decent Men. Who are bailing on US Women in record numbers.
This is what strikes at the heart of Feminists. US Men going overseas to Marry Foreign Women. Men refusing to Marry and others to Cohabitate. The explosion in online Sex and Escorts is a direct effect of the Death of Marriage.
With so many Marriages being celibate. Men are coming to the realization there is no longer any benefit to it for us. Even More bizarre is the admission that Eco Minded Women in their twenties are refusing to have children. Breeding themselves out of the gene pool.
Angry Harry has one of the oldest Men's Rights sites. And it has excellent content. Of course a Rabid Gender Feminist will attack it. That is a great endorsement in my book. Thanks for the heads up.

It's more like comparing apples to rocks.
Anon. post #3 makes an important (albeit unintentional) point. Women flock together. They are much more likely to belong to groups, to cooperate. Men are loners, individualistic. More than 10,000 women-only fitness clubs like Curves have popped up in the US. Similar clubs for men failed. Women work together. Men compete with each other.
Feministing is a cooperative with multiple women writers producing 10X the content of AH, who is one loner guy. Feministing allows comments and participation, AH does not. Feministing puts in the effort to create a professional image; AH rolls out of bed and puts on the rumpled shirt from the pile after smelling the armpits. Sure, feministing trades man-hating barbs and delights in seeing the pathetic MRA rally to back AH in a meaningless poll, and then fail miserably. But the difference is that when it comes time to rally to a cause, they will all act together in unison. MRAs won't (at least to the same degree). Apples.
Rocks: Look at bob's comments here and elsewhere. He's the old bitter guy who sat in front of the tv for years growing a gut and an increasingly know-it-all attitude and wondered why his wife started cheating on him. Same as Masculist Man. Khankersore, others. They don't want change, they want to play victim, get the buzz off their rage rants, and pretend their crackpot uninformed theories pass for knowledge and principle. They will never create change, nor do they want to. They are like a cancer to any men's rights movement because they advocate war between the sexes, which is not winnable.
In Maryland alone, three desperate fathers have murdered their beautiful children then taken their own lives this year alone. Laws and procedures put in place to legitimately protect abused women are now being used non-legitimately as weapons by scorned and vindictive women (it has nothing to do with feminism). What we need are husbands, wives, mothers & fathers to start living by their Christian values of love & respect, to learn to part amicably, to forgive, to stop seeking revenge, to put their children's welfare first.
The MRM cannot help correct this imbalance with women-bashing, chest-pounding, isolation, unprofessionalism and by tolerating those in their midst who just preach more hate, more violence. That the AH site is the best the MRM has to compete with Feministing reveals why the MRM is, by comparison, functionally impotent.
Yep..Steele is ALL about hate. She keeps repeating the same banal horseshit, NEVER once thinking of being harmonious between the sexes. She goes around in circles like a dog, sniffing her own ass the whole time. She needs the vapors to carry on hating.
She is the perfect example of divide and conquer attempts.
She has not mentioned ONE thing in her misandrist hate blog that is not an act of projection.
*yawn*
Guys this lady is playing you.
Robin, find something useful to do with your life. The goldfish need rights. Go after them.
You put something up from New Zealand. I hope I never meet you because I will flush your head in the toilet if I do.
You are sickening. Leave matters that you have no knowledge of well alone.
No, I think I will tie you to a pole naked with a sign, "I hate men because I can't get any."
Guys, This lady has no idea of what feminism is about.
Please guys stop giving her your attention. She has had more than enough of a chance to be real. But she isn't. She is bored and just wants to shit stir. If you ignore her she will find another group in the world to shit stir. And when they have had enough of her she will find another and another.
robin Steele: Angry Harry the best MRA site? I don't believe that! Glenn Sacks is the biggest by far and FAR more men and women follow Glenn than Harry (I can't remember if Angry Harry is Harry Crouch or another Harry). Hah! Dr. Helen Smith is bigger than Angry Harry! So is Wendy McElroy (both are men's movement in that they are openly willing to support men's rights).
You are confusing the angry and hurt men with the men who actually do things! Worse, you're mocking the angry and hurt men which is EXACTLY the wrong thing to do!
As for men sticking together that was once the norm. Things have changed. When I was a teen in the late 1960's and early 1970's men flocked together and through men's social and service clubs did fantastic work. Now? All of the 'men's' clubs are dying. Why?
I can look through the window sitting a foot from my right elbow and see a Curves. Picture yourself wanting to start such a thing for men.
The LAW of Canada says that if a woman wants into a male only club she has the right to get in: While for Curves, any man who wants in is abusing Curves and its members, he has no right to become a member and is fined for trying: That is the LAW of the land.
Now, why would you bother putting yourself through all of the cost of starting as male only? You wouldn't, so you start for everyone. It is REALLY simple gender dynamics and politics.
Maybe I jumped the gun.
Are you open to listening Robin? And using common sense?
I get upset about people wanting attention and using other people for it needlessly.
Plus I sort of stuck up for you on antimisandry. I am bad at picking who is OK and who is not.
So the value of a website proves it's worth?
The National Organization of Women's website is worth....
now.org/, is worth $0.00
(Actually I think this is over valued)
It would appear to me that the value depends on how many ads are run on the website. No Ads...no value.
I also contend that Dirty Harry pays all the expenses for his website. I would not doubt that feministring gets federal funding which pays for part of theirs.
Barfbitch Steele spewed:
"Women flock together. They are much more likely to belong to groups, to cooperate.","Women work together.","..they will all act together in unison.."
