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...
I've recently been enjoying Marilyn Peterson's works on criminal intelligence, gisela bichler's 'understanding criminal networks' and Manon hedenborg White's fascinating 'the eloquent blood: the goddess babalon and the construction of feminism in western esotericism'
...don't necessarily need 'man as provider'. That's scary for many men but it's absolutely no excuse for being an abusive shit. And it's not 'feminism's fault' that some men can't accept women being seen as just as human as men.
I feel on some level that we have still failed to root out this...
I think it’s a bit of a leap to extrapolate much from the fact that you have read some of the recommended books.
Regardless, on my bookshelf there is also that skewing of having more female authors on the non-fiction side (esp. economics and psychology, and obv feminism).
I haven't read the post you're responding to so I don't know if you've correctly paraphrased what has been said but this ^^ is a wrong and misleading characterisation of what radical gender critical feminism says about men. It does not say that men are inherently violent.
...likes theory and finds it helpful to define categories and to think about how meaning is made. I also find kabbes one of the most respectful of women men on the boards, regardless of how he expresses himself using academic terms, and I believe he takes the issues raised by feminism very...
You’re welcome. Gay men are not beyond questioning after all are they.
What’s your problem with this? This is the image of women that drag queens present. These are actual drag queens. Big lips, big tits, big curves, and sexual innuendo. It’s a characature of women. And your there getting...
So you do need to be spoonfed. You're not stupid so I don't see why're incapable of grasping this at all.
Once more, because surely by now someone wants to jump in and say pack it in cunts, start that thread if you're so vexed about poor Margarita's treatment.
The Guardian had a great piece about radical feminism the other day Don’t write off radical feminism – it’s always been ahead of its time | Finn Mackay
I was at university with radical feminists in the '80s and have supported them ever since. Their views seem like common sense to me. There's...
Is “cunt” all cool these days? It used to be seen as derogatory to women to use the female genital as the ultimate term of contempt but I know feminism’s got really funky and post-modern, I’m obviously out of date.
Difference between being 'gender critical' in a political sense, as in supporting the movement termed 'gender critical feminism' by it's supporters, and being critical of gender tho
Kind of like the difference between supporting democracy in Korea and supporting the DPRK
yes - the key difference between "nice" and "good". good being respectiving entirely the person autonomy without busy body interferance. the person being "caring" thinks they are just being so "nice". it's incredibly controlling.
congrats for making it out. seriously.
...Its whole point is that merely having a woman becoming leader doesn’t make you progressive. This is a feature of feminist critique of post-feminism.
So let’s step aside from the context that others are using it, which you don’t seem to understand anyway. I return to the simple question...
...be a racist, I'll get around to reading that once I've finished Bernard Manning on anticolonial struggle and Roy Chubby Brown on fourth-wave feminism.
Looks like it, as far as I can see - UFFC don't seem to be super social media heavy, which may be a good thing, but I can't find any...
...it was their lot to accept it, to tip toe around violent men and comply. What other choice did they have? where else could they go?
70s feminism challenged a lot of male behaviour but the world and the law has been very slow to change. Maybe DV isn't seen as normal behaviour but it hasn't...
