It may have been a hoax but, with as much media attention as it has gotten, I wouldn't be surprised if, someone doesn't develop something like it.

If, I was in Vegas right now, I'd be scrambling to put something together that was a little less outrageous but, followed a similar theme.

Maybe:

Exotic dancers, as Prey, in heavy gortex and headgear. Each with a distinct and easily identifiable pattern.

Patrons first receive instructions on protocol and safety at the "lodge".

Patrons may participate as Hunter or Prey.

Hunters would then, view a wall with pictures of the Prey(male and female) and their corresponding pattern.

After the orientation the Hunters go out into the Game Reserve and select their choice of dancer by tagging them with a paintball.

Prey would be monitored via audio communications gear installed in the headgear which can be used for voice transmission and GPS tracking.

Hunters would be constantly monitored thru audio/video equipment attached to their PB gun.

The video would be viewed as a live feed for anyone in the lodge and, with permission, on the corporate website.

Hunters would receive a recording of their hunt. Recordings would also be, with permission, made available for download or sale on VHS and DvD.

After the Hunters have tagged their Prey, Hunter and Prey return to the lodge to "dress their kill" in private.

Price it reasonably, toss in some Game Wardens, Night Vision equipment, and arrangements for private individual/group hunts and I think you'd have a viable and profitable adult oriented activity that wouldn't be too offensive to the general populace.

...then again,... I may just be a sick individual.

Really? I suppose it depends on your idea of what constitutes "comparable" (and what consitutes a "movement").

But we've been down this path before, and I already know where it leads.

Yes, I agree. But I wanted to stay away from the word "misogynistic".

I hate to admit to agreeing with UMoC on any topic, but I feel the same way he does.

What's the difference between this and the BDSM scene? Male Dominants aren't usually mysogynists... why assume these fellahs are?

After reading the fox news article that was linked above, I have to say that I agree with part of what the NOW spokesperson said (what it says about the men who participate... sick misogynist individuals to be sure), but I have to take exception to their implication that the women are innocent victims of the "financial climate" that forces them to participate. Nobody is forcing the women to do this. I think the women are equally deplorable for enabling, encouraging, and legitimizing such dangerous fantasies as these.

I look at the whole situation as an illness, on both sides of the participation. The only people I can blame are those that are feeding off it. They fall in the same category as psychics and con men.

Well I think NOW leaders are sick, man hating individuals.

It is none of their business what consenting adults do for fantasy fulfillment as long as noone's rights are violated.

Radical feminists are in the same league with radical religious fundamentalists in that they try to restrict individual freedoms.

Please note that feminazis of NOW think the same thing of strip clubs or prostitution.

Well just the regular meaning of the words.

A masculinist movement would focus on righting the discrimination of men in certain areas of law (family law, no equal protection under law for men accused of rape, selective service, unequal opportunity employment/admissions aka affirmative action) much like feminism used to focus on areas where women

Radical masculinism would then involve some form of male supremacy just like radical feminism is female supremacist.

As long as the thread is not moved to PD we are fine, I think.

Which is a term so overused as to be virtually useless.

By the way: what is the corresponding term for man-hating? Miso ... what?

And why would you hate to do that?

Should I be suprised that a fox news "legal expert" opinioned the following.

Quote:
"I couldn't quite believe it. [The site] advertised this as really hurting people," said legal expert Susan Estrich on Fox News. "[They're] violating about 20 criminal laws, including assault."
No they're not commiting assault; no more than any other time a game of paintball is played. If boxers and football players don't commit assault, why then does playing a "hunting game" commiting assault. But then again this is the same network that used Charlie Daniels as a constitutional expert.
