UK: Why men have no place in ‘women-only’ colleges

Article here. Excerpt:

'Graduates of one of Cambridge University's last women-only colleges are angry about the decision to accept men from 2021 – and rightly so. When Professor Dame Madeline Atkins, president of Lucy Cavendish College, announced the college would accept "excellent students from non-traditional backgrounds, regardless of gender", dozens of former students expressed outrage.

One alum said they were "beyond grief", while another said Lucy Cavendish had "lost what made them special".'

... don't belong in women's colleges... until they stop being women's colleges. Then they do.

But the author needn't be too worried. She can always go to some Swedish music festival of some kind to get her fix of women-only spaces.

Just why are so many women's colleges going co-ed anyway?

Dunno but probably low interest in them. After all, on co-ed campuses there's so much more to do. You have a patriarchy you can rail against during the day and dick to suck at night. It's the best of both worlds.

What would feminists do if they had no men to complain about or patriarchy to rant about?

Ppl who stake their precious identities on being oppressed need an oppressor. This is why feminists seek the company of men. They search out men and go wherever we are. This is why women-only co-working spaces eventually let in everyone. Feminists NEED to feel oppressed and so NEED men around.

As men flee feminists, feminists pursue men.

For a feminist, on her knees before a man giving head is the ultimate act of patriarchal oppression, next to rape. This is why to get themselves fired up and outraged before some kind of feminist rally they go visit the local football team and line up on their knees.

Well it is.
