whats funny is that she brought up the point of "what about men who aren't actually sexually harasing anyone" and just acted like that was a form of sexual harassment.
No there isn't a serious difference any more. Why can't people get that through your heads? Technically you are correct but the psycho left has hijacked the term and, as they always do, have created a new monster out of it. This. Is. What. Feminism. Is. Today. Or, as a very wise man once defined it; feminazism.
Yes but more like how they've tried to make "conservative" mean "racist" "homophobe" or "sexist" when we're none of those things. Those politicians and academics that we allowed to become the "leaders" of conservatism failed to fight back against decades of lies and historical revision from the liberals and they succeeded in convincing a lot of snowflakes that we are evil, hateful ogres. Likewise with feminism, they've succeeded in taking a term that used to mean equality and applied it to something that really is no more than hate. Liberalism destroys everything it touches. While that's not what "feminism" is, they have sucessfully destroyed the brand. A new label is needed.
I like squirrels. I also like the oxford dictionary. I'm tired man... I'm tired. I literally played basketball until I threw-up today. Yes I was drunk. Yes we won 4 straight before I puked. (I just wanted to state that somewhere) but I'm tired and I don't fucking care anymore. I use oxford definitions for most things.
Yo guest, you should make yourself an account, I like where you're coming from. Got a couple of corrections to make tho. The correct term for this is not "Liberalism", it's "Progressivism". Cause the left that we have now is no longer liberal, given they censor the shit out of everyone and have corrupted most activist movements. So that label is off. Liberalism is striving for freedom, and progressivism is radical marxist intersectional feminism.
Dear wholesome @Sunflowers, there in unfortunately no longer a difference. This is how the majority of modern feminists are... I identify as a feminist, I genuinely believe I support female empowerment until we have societal equity, but many women I know, don’t acknowledge my belief because they’re like the post above.
Simple correction. Replace equity with equality, and you got my position here. Equity is equality of outcome, not opportunity, and should be avoided at all costs. Because to get an equal ratio of men to women everywhere you will have to suppress free will of people and that never gets any good results.
There is a large difference between asking for reasonable rights and treatment, and joining the shewoman man haters club. If you wouldn’t want someone doing it to you- then it isn’t equality to do it to them. So while it’s fine to vent or fantasize with friends about “locking them up in cages and using them for breeding..” or “taking all their jobs and making us be in power...” or “zap them when they talk or displease us...” switch the roles and see how you’d feel if it were reversed between “us” and “them.” It’s understandable to be angry, and no one can tell you not to be. However that anger isn’t constructive when used like this. It hurts a cause. Sadly social media and digital networks have made a random angry gent an eternal and public display that a person and their entire views can be judged by. Try to keep things constructive and reasonable. We need change but not this. This hurts the idea of equality by replacing one oppressor with another.
Bait much?
