As far as modern femisnism akuchi?
do you even know what modern feminism is? modern [third-wave] feminism is not one single, cohesive movement; but you've evidently not a clue about that. BRA BURNING BITCHES, amirite?
[you'll note that was second-wave feminism and whether a bra was actually burnt is a point of contention.]
Femininity and traditional feminine leanings considered inherently bad
no, they're not?
well, okay. it depends what you mean by traditional feminine leanings, here. it's about choice and thought; we prefer that you'd look at what you're doing with your life and think about why you're doing it. for example, marriage; it's an inherently patriarchal institution [and there's no question about that] and all we'd say is if you do wish to get married think about why you're doing it. think about why you want your father to give you away at the ceremony, and why you're going to take his name [if you do; I personally won't if I get married], and.. yeah. it's not rocket science.
I ramble. I'm dwelling on my potential wedding now and it's pretty cool.
Innate gender differences are purposefully ignored
ahh, so *that's* why I can't piss standing up. thanks for letting me know, I was having a bit of trouble working it out..
Prostitution and pornography portrayed as positive
erm, no it's not. radical feminism will never approve of them. liberal feminism would contend that women who do it out of choice and not genuine economic need can do so.. but that's very much a minority of feminist thought.
genuine economic need? why don't we just give people a decent minimum wage and a better welfare sysOH SHIT SOCIALISM
Family portrayed as bad, secondary to career/money
I think you'll have to look at your own misogyny here. Why should the career come first for men, and not for women? why should men be allowed to go off and have jobs whilst women are stuck in the kitchen?
the solution; socialized childcare [zomg NO SOCIALISM]
Killing children in your own womb considered a sacred right
I think you've been warned about debating abortion before. Suffice to say yes, it damn well is.
Unrelenting hatred of males
this is something feminism has always been accused of, and I'm not sure why. sure, Solanas hated men, but since when was she a spokesperson for the feminist movement?
I don't have an unrelenting hatred of males. I have an unrelenting hatred of the way males think it is okay to treat women - why should I have to walk down the street and be reminded that I am constantly subject to male approval?
I dislike the patriarchy, not men; and there's a stackload of evidence to prove that the patriarchy hurts men too [just look at the suicide rates amongst teenage boys, who are socialised into these traditional gender roles you seem so fond of and told that they must not cry and asking for help makes you look weak.
Unrelenting hatred of Christianity
now you're getting really weird.
there are christian feminists. Quite how they reconcile the bible's more misogynistic verses with feminism I'm unsure, but more power to them.
Constant victim mentality (I am woman, hear me whimper about a man's world while proclaiming my very breath is an accomplishment!)
Erm. No.
*bangs head against wall* It is a man's world. Why should trying to level out the playing field be regarded as such a terrible thing? Because you don't want to lose your privilege?
Please, modern feminism is a crock. A whore is a whore, and feminism is a whore.
Nice abusive, unsubstantiated statement there using gender-specific pejoratives. And there's no need for feminism why?
Feminists are all just a bunch of shorter, weaker, louder, more annoying male wannabes.
Feminists are women who want to be treated as equal in society. It'd be nice to be judged, on, say, my academic achievements rather than my rack, but hey. Just look at the Olympics; women in skintight clothing, pages after pages of women's tits, asses, and legs with asinine comments - and very little mention made of their athletic prowess.
oh shit I'm shorter than men I should give up now
Real men, conservative and liberal alike, laugh at feminists. They are a bunch of silly, angry little harpies, who simply haven't gotten the smacking they deserve because men are too busy laughing at them to do it.
Real men.
Are you a real man?
I feel kinda sick at this point
Look at Bill Clinton. He singlehandedly set the feminist movement back at least a decade because all the harpies lined up behind him. Bill knew that at the end of the day, they were weak, loose, easy women who needed womanizers like Bill around to occasionally throw them a bone. They wanted the license that he took. They wanted to be Bill Clinton, simultaneously a whore free of responsibility and the most powerful person in the free world.
And yes akuchi, when you want to act like the annoying little man, you should expect a punch to the jaw.
And you could expect one back.
That's what a man would get for that kind of crap. Don't you want to be treated like a man?
I don't think that anyone should be subject to violence. It's genius how you on the one hand talk about 'the rights of the unborn' but then you seem to expect them to get shat on from birth.
Oh, but not the nasty, mean, reality inducing parts, like the dangerous jobs, shit hours, the constant insults by stupid feminist harpies, the expectation that you will either work or die whether you are sick or not whether you have family obligations or not.
Who's the whiny little bitch now?
Since when don't women take dangerous jobs with shit hours?
Look at all the men in positions of power relative to the women in positions of power. Women are paid less than men for the same job.
Women are more likely to have lower-paid jobs overall because we've got to fit work around a family, life, and cleaning up after our asinine partners/husbands - because cleaning is woman's work, right?
I've an answer to this; anarchocommunism!
[my marxist feminist dialectic may bring all the boys to the yard but my anarchafeminist dialectic pleases me more at present.]
Feminists want all the perks of being a man with none of the shit. They are spoiled brats. Equal Pay Day is in April, Equal Death Day (the day where female deaths from work equal the male deaths from the last year) is in late November.
I found a grand total of one result on Google for equal death day, so I'm sorta guessing you made that one up.
Know your place akuchi (yes, I do dare say that). You aren't a man, you never will be, and you will never comprehend what it is like to be a man. You get to live in your world of fantasy as the big britches biatch and never have to suffer for it.
I don't? Okay. Thanks for letting me know. Because, like, rape isn't a factor, and walking down the street and being harassed for my gender, that's not a factor either. The fact I might be able to get pregnant and if you had your way would have no control over my body - nope, that doesn't matter. The fact that I will be expected to be primary caregiver to any child I may have, and still be expected to keep house and have a job - a job in which I'll be paid less for a man who does the same.
[intermission; lol who the fuck seriously says biatch - and why am I arguing with them]
There's a pretty simple answer to this. Men do half the housework too - but cleaning is what girls do, right? Back to the imaginary kid. If I have a boy, he'll be bought castles and guns to play with, told that if he cries he shouldn't be such a 'girl', told to go out and be boisterous and, well, 'boyish.' If I have a girl, she'll be given dresses and tea sets and expected to sit down quietly in the corner and be quiet and passive and 'girly'. Are these the gender roles you were referring to?
I don't give a shit if you call me "sexist." You think slaughtering children in an organ designed for nurturing them is a great advancement for women.
You know I can't even argue with this on you since the topic has been banned, but whatever, it's irrelevant.
It's funny how you've completely ignored all these crazy Biblical rules that tell men what to do with their cocks, though.
That is truly, truly backward, and the original feminists, the one's who gave women the right to vote, knew that too.
Oh, those whiny little harpyesque bitches. Complaining all the time. Ruining men's lives. What were we doing trying to get the vote in the first place? Shit me. That's where it all went wrong!
Also akuchi, you don't know anything about the Bible. You accept any criticism of it as Gospel, no matter how ridiculous on its face. The Bible condones rape?
(Deuteronomy 22:28-29 NLT)
If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not pledged to be married and rapes her and they are discovered, he shall pay the girl’s father fifty shekels of silver. He must marry the girl, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives.
According to your precious Christianity, were I to be a virgin [why is virginity so highly prized in women, but not men?] and I to be raped, as long as he paid my dad off it'd be cool.
Sounds like the worst engagement party ever to me, but hey!
I'd ask you why you were so ignorant of Christianity, but then I remember you're a feminist. Willful ignorance of reality comes with the territory.
I am choking on the irony. Seriously.
