...disadvantage, are largely isolated, unionised and struggling to make ends meet to have much strength left over to fight. Seems both feminism movement and the left are in tatters, split into tiny self interest groups against themselves and each other. Where to start with ideas of practical...

How does this skew with your loathsome comments on the Dune thread?

That is true. Trans exclusionary radical feminism seems to involve a disproportionate amount of 'gender critical' men yelling aggressively at women about penises tho.

Because the term ”girlboss” is used as a comment on the neoliberal appropriation of feminism in order to control and redirect the movement’s successes towards the perfectibility of the self, and thus set women into competition with each other instead of standing together. That’s how that...

Love Gate to Women’s Country wtfftw 😍 The ideas are very second wave feminism and a bit dated/simplistic now but I still love it! Have you read Beauty by the same author? The only books I’ve recently read by men have been book group books or re-reading Douglas Adams/the biography of Douglas...

There's this strong theme of rose-tinted mawkishness about the past with much Right-Wing politics that basically says 'Equality screwed everything up, so the way to make the world as good as it was [NB: it wasn't good] is to make the societal context the same as it used to be'. And in some ways...

:thumbs: Those are good things though, surely? Yet here you seem to use it as a criticism (and Ben Shapiro certainly was): Probably best to stick to words you know the meaning of really: This might make interesting listening though BBC Sounds - Woke: The Journey of a Word - Available Episodes

...and current content go to: I keep recommending leftist youtuber FD Signifier. Very US based on (US) black issues and manosphere stuff and feminism but also hip hop, anime and other pop culture things. This one in particular is a bit of tour de force Dr Justin Sledge of Esoterica offers a...

Cricketers all have nicknames given to them by their team-mates. Also Cricket is steeped in feminism.

Really coming onto a thread about a woman kidnapped raped and murdered by a serving policeman and telling women they've done feminism wrong? Really?

You're not missing anything. It's just going down the most well traveled path... I couldn't believe those stats from the UK lockdown in the OP! "There were at least 16 murders of women by men in the first three weeks of lockdown" wtaf!

No idea why you're babbling on about now, neither do I care, but I've taken all the personal abuse I'm going to take from you, so we're now on mutual ignore. You'll have to shout your big man insults to the sky now. Fuck off and goodnight.

...Shulamith Firestone and Kate Millet. Germaine Greer has personally boasted of being a pedarist. There's far more grounds to attack radical feminism for being rooted in paedophile apologism than there is queer theory. Of course those attacks wouldn't be any fairer then the attacks on...

That was an incredibly honest, brave post and you deserve kudos for realising the danger and getting out before it was too late.

I think it started around the time of that Spice Girls / 'Girl Power' phase. Was never meant to be feminism as such, just daytime telly.

...- the man pays on the first date - is back to being infused with pathetic notions of entitlement to a woman’s body. I don’t really give feminism a lot of thought to be honest, I did when younger and from my mum, so I have rough ideas and, but if they actually gave feminist thinking and...

Targeting Incels etc? Totally on my radar

Because they feel threatened. Which triggers their defence of their position, and thus the patriarchy itself. It‘s very uncomfortable to be told “You are part of the problem. You’re not looking properly, you don’t understand it properly, you’re not thinking about it properly…” That criticism...

Have you heard of Andrew Tate? I have.
