    Is this woman a transphobe?

    Yes, may have kind of missed that... :oops: I meant in the context of third wave feminism and intersectionality; the development of ideas of gender as distinct from sex and the deconstruction of social constructs of gender (scuse clumsy formulation). Judith Butler with bodies that matter...

    Feminism - where are the threads?

    ...of women with respect to being pregnant and caring for small children makes us vulnerable and needing that. I also think predominantly women’s work (caring work) is undervalued and want to discuss that. That’s feminism for me, not arguing there are no biological differences between men and women.

    Feminism and the silencing of women

    There was an earlier comment about men should 'stand up' so I was saying that when I'd expressed previously about such occasions, I was shouted down. So asked why? I'm not too interested in continuing posting on this thread but I must say I don't see an awful lot of engagement from males, and...

    Feminism - where are the threads?

    ...the real blame belongs for the things you are concerned about. And the reason for me pushing this paper is that this is part of current feminism. When you say “feminism is saying X”, it doesn’t then seem fair to not actually read what feminism really is saying. I’m pointing out to you that...

    Feminism - where are the threads?

    In regards to caring work I agree, but then in another thread when I was talking about exactly that and the value of work not being linked to it's pay rate or formal employment you sneered at that as lefty nonsense. There are all kinds of work, both paid and unpaid that certain elements of...

    well the big appeal of these guys is that you are being told to learn and do homework and get upset and you don't even understand yourself

    Men supporting feminisms & feminists - ideological & intellectual pitfalls?

    ...aware, I'm a bloke who's not backward in shouting my mouth off. I do know that some blokes are wary of getting involved in arguments around feminism beyond the generic stuff, because some of the divisions in feminism are quite hard to navigate, and being men, we're frightened of showing our...

    Is this woman a transphobe?

    ...Suppose we discover a long lost tribe whose hermaphrodite tendencies blow apart all fixed notions of sex. Would that spell the end of feminism, or would that be the key discovery that confirms the necessity for the gender recognition act? Surely not, both have firmer ground than this...

    ...utterly disdainful of others yet apparently successful. Incels are just another side of the same coin, In their minds, they're alone because feminism is ruining the world and denying them their 'right' to effectively own a woman and not because they're unpleasant assholes that no sensible...

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

    I've posted on the Feminist theory thread for example sympathetic review of the Feminism for the 99%. Reading that short but to the point book yes that is the kind of Feminism Id celebrate. So yes I think the some Feminist theory/practise is worth celebrating. The OP by judith is clear she...
