Männlicher Feminist mit Prostituierter erwischt

Der Feminist und Dozent für Genderstudien Hugo Schwyzer erleidet gerade einen massiven Verlust an Glaubwürdigkeit – soweit das bei seiner Vorgeschichte noch möglich ist:

The details of this marital infidelity are not known, but in January 2013, Schwyzer, then 45, had a brief but torrid texting, telephonic and online fling with a 27 year old woman named Christina Parreira, also known in “sex worker activism’ circles as Christina Page — and in webcam/amateur porn circles as Gabriela "Ela" Stone. According to Parreira, Schwyzer acknowledged that revelation of their fling would be "career-killing" for him — Hugo has called older men who are "into" younger women – such as men in their 40s being attracted to and pursuing women in their 20s – dirty old men and "creeps."

Parreira, a woman with ambitions in activism and lecturing, had introduced herself to Schwyzer online in 2012 after reading some of his articles. Like Schwyzer, she has been diagnosed with mental illness (she maintains they both suffer from Borderline Personality Disorder), and likewise acknowledges a long history of suicide, violence, attention-seeking behavior, promiscuity, and reckless drug and alcohol use.

She has also admitted filing a false police report to pre-emptively discredit her on again-off-again boyfriend, writer/filmmaker Michael Whiteacre (whom, like Schwyzer, she became involved with after pursuing online).

Irgendwie erinnert mich diese Doppelmoral zum einen an den vermutlich selbst homosexuellen Schwulenhasser J. Edgar Hoover. Zum anderen muss ich an den einstmals männlichen Feministen Raewyn Connell denken, der sich schließlich den Penis, das Instrument der männlichen Unterdrückung, abtrennen ließ, um fortan als Frau weiterzuleben. Ich möchte lieber gar nicht erst wissen, welcher unverarbeitete Selbsthass sich hinter der Männerfeindlichkeit von Leuten wie Michael Kimmel & Co. verbirgt.
