It bugs me

I hate it when misogynists claim that feminism somehow seeks to castrate them. If you point out that their dicks are still very much attached to their bodies, they'll come back with some claim of how it's symbolic castration (or they'll claim that actual castration is the future goal, but that's why their "fighting the good fight" against equality now). Look, women living their lives is not symbolic castration. Taping a picture of a man to a banana or hot dog and then putting it down the garbage disposal while laughing maniacally is symbolic castration.
