    A celebration of Feminism - as a female what has it meant for you?

    ...My education is patchy. I did do course in feminist theory a very long time ago. Bit before it went all about language. Its unfortunate as Feminism could have altered the academy. My old tutor was from Marxist Feminist background plus social research. She was fair about what was called then...

    Motherhood and the denial of the mother

    Feminism crossed with hippy, with added beef, is as far as I can tell :confused:

    Feminism - where are the threads?

    In Britain today women can earn as much or more than men so they can clearly "provide" for their needs, while they need sperm to "procreate" it is less certain that they need maleness for long. As for the "protect" part of it I am less sure. My feeling is that the traditional male might in...

    Feminism - where are the threads?

    There’s a growth of feminism here over the last decade... though some unreconstructed attitudes too. What there isn’t, is specific threads about feminist theory. Feminist input here is embedded into relevant threads.

    Feminism - where are the threads?

    Have avoided feminism discussions here for exactly this reason.

    Feminism - where are the threads?

    If you wish to ban someone you can report a post. Not sure what exactly Jennastan has done to deserve a ban. What about Clair De Lune ? Is a ban in order for that poster?

    Is this woman a transphobe?

    You can't 'simply' identify into womanhood though. The process takes two years and because of people like you the changes to the Gender Recognition Act have been dropped so you will also need to provide medical evidence of gender dysphoria and be signed off by a doctor. Which is what all this is...

    A celebration of Feminism - as a female what has it meant for you?

    Yeah generaly, but used by a man at a woman in an argument (about feminism of all topics) might be considered, at best, ill judged.

    War on Woke: Conservative Cultural Campaigning

    Well fortunately Gavin knows just the case(s). https://www.pinknews.co.uk/2021/02/16/education-secretary-gavin-williamson-felix-ngole-gays-abomination-free-speech-champion/

    How left wing is this forum?

    Lol. We just wouldn't be told, would we.

    Feminism and the silencing of women

    ...better things to do than watch 'First Dates' on channel 4 but there was a youngish man and woman having a first date and she talked about feminism and he really undermined her views - you could just see what had been a lovely date crumble in her eyes. He was bantering and trying to charm...

    A celebration of Feminism - as a female what has it meant for you?

    On twisting into something transphobic what do you think of Clair De Lune post 1299 on one of the other Feminist threads? Feminism - where are the threads? IMO its been JudithB been dropping in hints about Trans issues without male posters going on about it. Its been pointed out before...

    Feminism- experiences of man-whispering and the refusal to do so...

    It does read as if 'feminism' is being blamed for a 'bunker mentality' and for making 'boys not want to be boys' anymore. That's the only follow on response to the post above I can see.

    Feminism- experiences of man-whispering and the refusal to do so...

    Right. So feminism is to blame after all which is exactly what it appeared was being posted. :rolleyes: Oh and get stuffed with your accusations of misreading and deliberate misinterpreting. I specifically asked for clarification.

    Is this woman a transphobe?

    This is a genuine question. Does someone have to have to use a sexist term in order to be sexist? (You can apply this to racism of homopobia) Surely there are people who act in a discriminatory way without using obviously abusive terms. As a mixed raced black person I have my ideas taken by...

    A celebration of Feminism - as a female what has it meant for you?

    JudithB made clear she was posting the feminism threads for female born women only. Probably the reason they are mostly dead is that most Urbanite women wouldn't condone transphobic shit like this and avoid the threads.

    A celebration of Feminism - as a female what has it meant for you?

    ...it into something transphobic...dirty trick that TC and fucking frustrating. Well dirty tricks like you just pulled above haven't helped keep them going have they? :rolleyes: Have you posted anything on this thread that talks of what feminism means to you in a celebratory way? Has any man?

    A celebration of Feminism - as a female what has it meant for you?

    ...so does not mean I wish them harm or to have less rights or to be treated unfairly. Saying so does not make me less of a feminist, because feminism is about females. Equality can include trans women. Fairness and kindness and justice can include trans women. Feminism to me is about being...

    Feminism - where are the threads?

    In answer to your original question JudithB, this is why we don’t have threads on feminism. Because a lot of men on urban have so little respect for women that they tell us we’re doing it wrong, get angry and tell us to shut up. I’d rather talk about feminism in places where men aren’t...
