Forums - Politics Discussion - Can Feminists Get Any More Desperate?

sundin13 on 11 January 2016

This video seems to be ignoring that a significant portion of "bullying" done to women and young girls tends to be done by other females.

Also its complete bullshit. Theres that too. Do they honestly think that this is normal and that any father would be okay with this shit?

Great, another thread that puts all feminists in the same basket...

Because they actually are all in the same basket. Any self-respecting woman who has legitimate concerns for her rights wouldn't associate herself with crybaby first world princesses, they would refer to themselves as "Women's Rights Activists". No feminist has ever accomplished ANYTHING. Everything they claim was actually by women's rights activists. 

No, some people identify as feminist, some as egilitarists, other as women's right activists. Those are all just names and it's doesn't matter for one bit. The fact remains the OP puts ALL people who might identify as feminist in one group.

While I don't agree that all feminists are the same, a feminist is not the same as an egalitarian or a women's rights activist and they are not just names. Numerous parts of the backbone of feminism are blatantly non-egalitarian and that is because feminism is more than just the belief in equality. It is an ideology which encompases so much more than that...

For example, lets take the issue of fewer women in science real quick:

An egalitarian would look at this issue and say "is there equal opportunity? yes? Well then there isn't really a problem, is there?"

Many feminists would look at this issue and say "well this is obviously a problem, so lets handicap women by implementing quotas and ensuring that whether or not they are the best candidate, they should be more likely to get the job over a man."

The video obviously a compilation of crap but

IS

NOT

FEMINIST

I beleive actions speek lowder than words, but honestly, have you seen these prominant feminists? This is exactly how they act. They spout absolute nonsense about protecting womens right and shit like 'rape' culture on campuses, but none of them even say a word about the actual rape culture in the Nordic countries, especailly in Sweden, which is now, per capital, second only to South Africa in terms of number of rapes. There are Women in these countries getting raped, with a one in 4 chance of being raped in their life time, predominantly by muslim men, yet these feminist morons aren't saying a word.

Feminism is nothing but a cult.

As you said, actions are what matter. If someone acts like that, he/she is not a feminist.

I don't know what definition of the word feminist you have but pretty much every person who participated in the fight for women's rights fits the definition of the term which is "the advocacy of women's rights on the grounds of political, social, and economic equality to men."

Except definitions change over time, and Feminist now is more commonly associated with whiny girls that do nothing but whine and take jabs at men all day long. Feminists more often fight for elevated women's rights rather than equal rights, and that's what most people view them as nowadays. The definition just has yet to be officially changed.

 

And again, I don't ever remember reading anything about successful or logical feminist movements, only women's rights movements. The difference is one group wants equality, and the other wants to demonize.

And when nearly everyone who identifies as a feminist acts like a man-hating fool, what then? The term feminist has been hijacked by spurned women, but there are some who refuse to acknowledge that.

Freed us from our own stupid social constructions.

Honestly, as a man, I found this to me nothing more than a PSA.



Octane on 11 January 2016

The video is absolutely disgusting. I don't understand the amount of likes on that video. It only creates a false perception of reality and portrays half of the global population as rapists. Again, it's just absolutely disgusting.

I still didn't find your definition of feminist in the dictionary.
