    Of course there are wrong answers, otherwise the term has no meaning.

    To me, an anti-hero is a character in a story who does not try to be a hero, and is not motivated by a heroic drive, but rather is selfish, and maybe stumbles upon doing the right thing in the end.

    Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever is an example of this.












  • They are not inclusive, though it is what they want you to believe. Feminism is about women–it’s in the name. Also, when you read the founding documents of feminism, there is a strong anti-men stance. This is simply not the right lens through which to view men’s issues.

    And having experienced MensLib on Reddit in the past, there men’s issues were always made subservient to women’s issues. And the draconian moderation made sure no criticism of feminism was allowed to stand.

    To really discuss men’s issues, a space is needed that is free from the ideological shackles of feminism.
