Maybe. Felt really unsatisfying is all I’m saying, the way the men’s rights movement thing ended with a return to status quo and then a pointless montage of weeping Barbie.

...would my generation have had if they’d been polled aged 16-29? Point being is there’s always been a sizeable group of men with dodgy views of/behaviour towards women, and there’s been a backlash against feminism since it began. Not saying that it isn’t increasing, I’m just wondering by how much.

A Touch of Zen Wuxia classic from 1971 that absolutely rocks. Impatient action bros may fret over the initial pacing but the three hour epic delivers. A mix of martial arts, ghost story, feminism and Buddhism. And big influence on House of Flying Daggers and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

Guessing this wasn't Oppenheimer

It's on the Feminism and Violence Against Women thread if you're interested.

Thanks. I'll explain why I was hesitant at first: because I've seen the argument from some leftists that anything to do with feminism or LGBT stuff is a bourgeois concern and that class is the only thing that matters.

...rights activists'. I see he's going down the Lozza route of claiming men who don't share his views aren't real men. So gender critical, much feminism, wow. Not to mention the actual MRAs on Linehan's side. The irony is that Lineker gives far more of a shit about women's sports than Linehan...

i mean i don't know much about feminism but wasn't this a core issue of feminisim - reducing women to an essential core of femininity that htey must perform from (to be controlled from), that it somehow informs everything they do. The pain of not living up to it. The boredom of living up to it...

It is sarcastic, yes, mostly born from seeing the endless warnings that trans-exclusionary feminism would end up enabling attacks on "the wrong sort" of women and the reinforcement of gender role policing more generally come to a sickening fruition.

Such a great movie, with amazing cinematography.

Thank you. I read it last night. Think I may have liked it.

I do think, quite apart from the content of what he comes out with, it's informative that such an obviously angry and unhappy person is someone that people seem to want to emulate. The best thing to aim for, and the hardest thing to achieve, is calm contentment IMO. But try selling that to young...

...adherence to socially acceptable levels of femininity and masculinity. This would not be good for many women and would not be good for feminism. That's why the conservative right is all over this, they have realised that attacking trans people is a way to ensure the enforcement of gender...

Spectacularly unhelpful tbh, even if you are (presumably) being sarcastic.

ive worked with quite a few young people who've had short or long brushes with the alt right/anti feminism. one of whom was led down this path by Calvin fucking Robinson when that joker was a teacher. Ive found its not so hard to support kids to realise that individual grifters are in fact...

Once again your interesting ability to misread everything in such a way as to make the fault of trans people comes to the fore ... the fact is VAWG does not care about AGAB and that there are a woprrying number of cisgender women happy to throw Cisgender Lesbians, Cisgender...

This thread is called 'Feminism and a world designed for men' I wonder what that could possibly be about.

What? Vague question.

Yes, and Fay Weldon spoke about how she regretted some of the forms feminism took in the 60s and 70s for this very reason. But that's the point about including social/economic class in the mix. Centring on it, even, as Magnus said. Not everyone who is using the tools of intersectionality does...
