    The Oscars

    ...all the nominees. But given the tone deaf habit of past Academy Awards they were probably thinking... Well, it's easy for a woman to make feminism look good, but a man making misogyny look bad takes real acting chops #AllMenArePigs... or, at least, so it would seem that the Academy believes...

    Transphobes gunning hard for 'paedophilia' angle all of a sudden

    Well maybe someone can explain to me how feminism, which I always thought was based on the idea that nobody's experience of life should be adversely affected by their sex, is compatible with a movement that wants to make damn sure everyone stays in their biological lane regardless of the cost to...

    Men’s violence against women and girls is a national emergency

    oh grow up you sad little boy 'Gender Critical' transaphobia and the misogyny that drives it contributed to violence against ALL women and girls, becasue it allows cisgender men and their actual handmaidens to police womenhood and feminity...

    Transgender hate crimes recorded by police go up 81%

    I think it's also notable how many cis men relish a form of feminism and that is not critical of them in any way and gives them a justification to dismiss and talk over women who disagree with them, police the borders of masculinity and tell people they consider women (trans men and afab non...

    Feminism and a world designed for men

    This is a thread called Feminism and a world designed for men. You can't see that it's maybe slightly incongruous for men to start coming out with dick swinging bollocks..?

    LGBT in schools vs religious parents

    Guessing that post wasn’t aimed at me, but to my understanding the male/female thing with public toilets was only ever a social convention here rather than codified in law, as it is in the States.

    Why are more young men than older seeing feminism as a bad thing?

    The full polling is here: https://www.kcl.ac.uk/policy-institute/assets/emerging-tensions.pdf It's more nuanced than the reporting has suggested with the views of young and older men not that far apart in a lot of cases but there is a definite trend emerging.

    Feminism and violence again women

    ...that with which every woman I know is all too familar to a greater or lesser degree. We touched on the subject in some of the other 'Feminism and ... ' threads but never really addressed the issue. Violence against women and the threat of violence is at the very heart of patriarchy. I...

    Transphobes gunning hard for 'paedophilia' angle all of a sudden

    War propaganda, 'Realists' and neocons, and the denigration of the war sceptics

    ...with and explore thoroughly for hours and hours, with proper debate, proper insight, proper conceding or opening up new ground, things like feminism or immigration.

    We got that. Fuck off. So men, when you'e all nice on the feminism threads about listening to women's voices, why aren't you objecting to this sexist prick?

    Feminism and violence again women

    Why do so many men want to engage with threads about feminism by saying 'not me! this does not apply to me'?

    Misogynist barbarians in Alabama impose forced pregnancy law

    To my mind, that's exactly what feminism should be about. I think it's a great idea.

    Barbie vs Oppenheimer

    ...feeling is that the interesting opportunity that the film created was the bit with the Kens' backlash, the angry men pushing back after the feminism of barbieland had 'gawn too far'. Which is imo very relevant to the andrew tate-ish currents going on right now in the world. But then the film...

    Immigration to the UK - do you have concerns?

    ...with quite addled views on issues. And yes reactionary nonsense floated to the top. I witnessed this. Part of the reason for second wave Feminism was the let it all hang out Hippies didn't see that the patriarchal patterns re emerged in the alternative society. Something like patriarchy...
