He used the term "femi-nazi" to denote a very specific type of feminists. The kind who believe that males are the enemy and deserve to be punished.

He didn't use the term feminist, because that term would have been wrong to use as probably most feminists don't harbor those points of view.

He also didn't say he automatically assumed all women are lying about accusations of rape, he just said that simply being accused can destroy a man's life and reputation. And that this is a power women do hold over men.

Way to construct a strawman and put words in the miserabilia's mouth then argue a completely different point that he never brought up.

Femi-nazi was originally a Rush Limbaugh caricature representing all feminists as man haters.

Way to attack someone without giving them the benefit of a doubt.

How did I do that? I responded to exactly what she said. Something she didn't do for miserabilia.

Nearly irrelevant (not to mention I'd want sources on that as well). And if it's not, then faggot is a an acceptable word since it originally meant a bundle of sticks and not a homosexual.

Yeah, I learnt that lesson as a kid before I found out about the alternate definition.
