I didn't say 2nd wave feminism was about biological essentialism. It isn't! But radical feminism as in the strand of feminism that sees male oppression of women as natural and inherent is in my opinion biological essentialism.

A man apologising for a woman's choice of words. Feminism is saved.

They're just saying this shit out loud now: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/gop-congressional-candidate-said-us-suffered-from-women-s-suffrage-and-praised-organization-trying-to-repeal-19th-amendment/ar-AA125PHY Someone needs to tell this supposedly "logical" man that the 19th...

...and waging a campaign of cultural subversion from within - "cutlural marxism" - thus bringing about the woke-apocolypse of gay marriage, feminism, civil rights and the cancelation of jim davidson. the problem with this argument - putting aside its inherent and utterly rank anti-semitism...

...do. But now they can have those feelings and find, eh, communities online that will lead them into darker theories. "this is where feminism has got you, a lesser being than her" and all that horse shit. The manosphere have entrwined notions of attraction (educated people tending to date date...

Changed from attacking feminism and being on the wind up the whole time, nothing to do with sad AF.

It reminds me of when someone who hasn’t a clue gets given an admin role on a forum or FB group and goes a bit mad deleting accounts and changing things. Mad to think that the billionaire owner of a social media platform can behave like this. It is entertaining!

LeytonCatLady beat me to it, but thank you for this very courageous, open and honest post. It can’t have been easy to write (still less easy knowing that others will read it). You clearly have admirable self-reflective and self-critical skills and have grown as a person since that period of your...

You want to talk to me then talk to me. I'm not telling you anything other than what I am learning. The intro in Rose's book that I quoted says what I was trying to say. I'm sorry that you feel that all men's contributions to this subject are only valid once they have your massive level of...

Well this is a thing that gets talked about. At very least in a sort of HR department feminism sort of way. "Don't worry men benefit too from taking down the patriarchy as well". Which is perhaps a little counterintuitive, but then again those manosphere types don't seem very happy. Personally...

Desperate.

True. I was asked why I was being difficult recently, when I was being assertive, fortunately I don't give a fuck and won the day. Think I might start a Feminism and women's self confidence thread, as there is so much to explore here.

As a teenage punk, hearing feminist records, meeting radical feminists I recognised the problem, but seeing myself as a nice, not-particuarly macho bloke I thought that was me done - it's not me. It was another 15 or 20 years before I was reading women's experiences and recognised things I had...

I wasnt being disparaging LGBT people there. I was disparaging Piers Morgan. I am very much pro LGBT. I was laughing because of the audacity and ignorance of the bigoted imbecile.

I'd go further than you and say that, with very very few exceptions, it's not about feminism at all.

Well thank you for your critique of the culture of gay men of last 300 years in this country. I imagine we'll see you outside the library protesting with the rest of the fascists will we? Or perhaps burning down the pantomime? Fuck off with your sanctimonious faux 'feminism'.

Whilst I don't think it was necessarily Magnus' intention, but his response does exemplify one of the common ways feminism is stamped down: 'Gosh, what do these women want? First they want one thing, then they want another, women are so inconsistent and I can't possibly keep track of how I'm...

I quite like the Mansplaining Feminism podcast: https://mansplainingfeminism.com/ It's two self-deprecating English (Anglo-Indian maybe?) guys working through the key texts of feminism. The reasonably standard format is that one of them knows a decent amount about the subject and the other guy...

...positively and making the other guy think about why he could be reacting like that to a perfectly sensible suggestion) The same way feminism now is not (if ever has been) about 'You can't hold a door open/give a seat up for a woman you patronising bastard!' - TBH I think that concept was...

https://gal-dem.com/reclaim-the-nights-girl-boss-feminism-sisters-uncut/ This is a bit harsh imo. If it's right and RTS did refuse requests from Sisters Uncut I'm not surprised. Labour right Cllrs are good at excluding others who aren't politically reliable by simply ignoring them. It's a bit...
