    I was told at any number of occasions that love is more powerful than hatred. I did not quite understand the meaning of this until now.

    In addressing the bullying issue I finally found the meaning of this. As a result of working through the memories of having been bullied in school, I have been able to forgive a long-time enemy: the 90s feminists. These were brainy unattractive women who had been treated badly in school; and in feminism they found identity, power and meaning.

    They were wrong to attack attractive women; they were wrong to attack men who were attracted to attractive women. In attacking family and child-rearing, they were dead wrong. But understanding where they come from gives me a much better perspective, and one more precise. Now it is possible to deal with them as human beings rather than as a mortal enemy, and hopefully guide them to a better place.

    A woman on the Internet once wrote that her daughter had been bullied in school by another child; and, once she got over it, she wanted to help that person. I congratulated her on raising a child with a good heart. A Buddhist meditation instructs the reader to “forgive other people's verbal abuse by understanding it as expression of their mental anguish.” Clearly the actions of these feminists are an expression of their mental anguish. So I am being called upon to forgive them and, just maybe, show them a better way.

    Ultimately a brainy, unattractive woman would probably do better for herself by becoming an engineer or a scientist than by becoming a feminist. There is more room for engineers than there is for feminists, and it pays a lot better. But if these people are understood, the society benefits as a whole; and then the need for aggressive feminism is reduced. Which also reduces the burden on attractive women and men who like them.

    So yes, love can in fact be more powerful than hatred. And I hope that more people can have similar realizations and act accordingly.

    It isn't possible to be either of those without being a feminist.

    Too many men are overly preoccupied with the supposed feminist thing to a point of ennui.

    Love is more powerful than hatred because hatred tears you apart inside and pushes others away.

    Love makes you happy, strong and draws others closer

    Yea, because radicalized partisan people look for a reason why they can't do something and if they try to do something and fail they look for someone to blame....

    Blaming people for ones shortcomings seems to be popular in the present day, of course white males seem to be the popular choice....

    You just want People whose opinions or accounts you do not happen to like, to sit down and shut up, since you do not rule the World, nobody has to comply with the Roars and demands of the textbook blowhard.

    There has always been lots of Bully tactics until a Person learns how to fight their own battles in life, in My case, I was bullied by FATSO ugly boys, many of them left back a few grades, oh, White boys, not Black or Latino or a minority of any type, not even Red Necks, just your ordinary Richie Cunningham but a larger fatter version, and being left back a few grades, older more sexually perverted boys among us younger more innocent ones.

    As a child growing up, I was brain washed into letting people walk all over Me, and girls knew this and capitalized on the knowledge they could do stuff and get away with it, until I realized that when a girl tried to push me around, a finger poke in the right place was all that was needed to convince them to stop abusing Me.

    People who think it's 'funny' or derive some kind of twisted pleasure from belittling, bullying or abusing other human beings have severe mental issues and should ultimately be shunned because they are a liability to society. The best revenge is living a good fulfilling life because unless they (the bullies) turn their lives around they will likely die lonely and miserable.

    You are from where, Oregon?

    Yeah, the women there do have an attitude.

    Instead of doing stupid things like using violence, how about telling them that if they are really the strong and independent women that they fancy themselves to be let them join the military and fight real pigs in the Middle East.
