12:35p - The "What About the Mens?" Phallusy
Forgive me if there is already a law like this in place. I searched and could not find.

In any case, this "phallusy"1 is as follows:
In any discussion focusing on women's2 issues, the probability that someone will come around and say "men are [fill the blank], too!"3 approaches 1 the longer the discussion gets.


Can be used with marlo's corollary:
If someone posts something containing or alluding to the word "rape" somewhere on the internet, THERE WILL BE WANK.




1 Credit goes to [info]donnaidh_sidhe for the word. I'd also like to thank her for the help on the definition.

2 May be applied to any disadvantaged group, simply replace "women" with said group and "men" with the applicable privileged group.

3 Bonus points for discussion on rape, sexual assault, domestic violence, and abuse.
