Douchebag lawyer and his douchebag lawsuit: “Feminism violates men's rights!”

Love / Shove blog post by Andi Zeisler, August 18, 2008 - 4:13pm; tagged feminism, zero-sum shenanigans.

So New York lawyer Roy Den Hollander once married a young woman he met while working as a private investigator in Russia. Once Den Hollander moved himself and his foreign bride back to New York City, though, she took a job as a stripper and proceeded to dump him within months.

It's a sad little story, and probably not nearly the first of its kind. But to say Den Hollander seems to have had a wee bit of trouble letting it go would be a massive understatement. Since his marriage ended, the spurned groom has turned into a men's-rights crusader so convinced that feminism is the reason for all his personal woes that he's literally made a career out of litigating against it.
