That slide show... wow.

Roy Den Hollander
This New York based attorney is one of the most visible proponents of “men’s rights” –- the notion that white men in America are the new victims of reverse sexism and “misandry.” Suffering from what he calls PMS -– “persecuted male syndrome” -- Hollander has unsuccessfully sued several New York City bars for sex discrimination over their “Ladies’ Nights” policies of free or reduced price drinks for women; the Violence Against Women Act for promoting fraud (women can claim battery after they’ve suckered some guy into a green-card marriage); and Columbia University for sex discrimination (having a Women’s and Gender Studies Department without a comparable Men’s Studies Department) and violating the Constitutionally-mandated separation of church and state (promoting the “religion” called feminism). “Feminism is no more a religion than physics,” snorted the judge as he threw the case out of court.
