I'm not a fan, but people do mix feminism with "extremistic" women (don't know what to call the latter ).

I am in the sense of women advocating for themselves. Gaining suffrage, land ownership, the right to work, equal pay are good things that came forth from feminist ideology.

I think people have this view of a feminist being an uber-manhating, hypocrite, bull dyke. (thanks Rachel Maddow) But that's not the entire story.

but that too is not the entire story, as we can all see this current state of affairs in nothing even close to equality. watch the whole video when you got time

Feminists make me sick. Especially (well mainly) in a country like Australia. I'm not exactly quite sure what they want when they pretty much have more rights than men.

Saw a feminist rally in the city a couple of weeks ago. Simultaneously laughed and facepalmed.

And our prime minister is a woman ffs

Extremism is never good.

I'm pretty sure the ones leading the rally were fat lesbians.

Agree, but in Denmark feminism is outdated.

It sure is. Which is why it's sad to see women (and men) support something like compulsory quota for women board members

 

[GordoDeCentral]

feminism is a a disease and i suspect if left unchecked would be one of the main reasons behind the unraveling of western societies

 

[Enron]

You could say that about anything involving personal responsibility.

True. Now, let's eat at Rio Bravo and bitch about bad elements like @Nzoric.

 

[GordoDeCentral]

i think the effect of this is more pervasive as it is shifting our genetic pool

It's no more of a problem than the cult of "individual responsibility" or libertarianism.

You perceive it as a greater threat because you have women issues.

oh no you went ad hominem on me, how sadly predictable my feminist mouthpiece friend

 

[JCK]

Are you still discussing rape in this thread?

 

[Enron]

That's not ad hominem.

I have have similar issues. Built around trust, but I come from a highly female family so it bothers my personal opinion less.

we moved on to feminism

how is it not ad hominem? what relevance is the interlocutor to the value of the argument here? you have no idea what issues i have or dont, it's quite the leap of faith to make any judgement as far as that is concerned

I thought I read you like a book. Perhaps I'm wrong. Apologies if you're offended.

I just assumed because you'd have underlying reasons for opposing something so strongly, using language like "one of the main reasons behind the unraveling of western societies" and speak of it "shifting our genetic pool".

Let's not generalize here. I feel women have a right to advocate for themselves (feminism if you want to call it that). Do I think they have a right to trash others in the name of feminism or for whatever reason? Of course not. Do I think it's extremely hypocritical to hide behind gender while at the same time claiming equality? Sure. I've been shit on be women in the workplace and in relationships as much as any guy.

However, I can't see how feminist ideals are more of a danger to the western world than white entitlement or western entitlement for that matter.

Let's do that. Stegt Flæsk ad libitum.

 

[GordoDeCentral]

as i pointed out the ideals might seem benign at first sight but their application and practical interpretation are disastrous, the results of which are a generation of repressed emasculated men and the emergence of douche bags and psychos at the top of the testosterone totem pole. Not to mention the devastating effects of the ubiquity of single mothers both as a burden on society and on the children in these homes.

oh and E, you my boy no need to apologize, i keep things in contexts, and as ugly as intellectual arm wrestling gets, it's just that: slinging of ideas
