    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...

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

    The Nth room case, for a start. From Reddit: A further comment:

    International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against MEN

    There's scope for something around this stuff that isn't led by MRA shitheads. This isn't it though.

    Misogynist barbarians in Alabama impose forced pregnancy law

    Would it be worthwhile starting a new thread on how feminism may or may not benefit men? I feel it's a bit self-indulgent because that's not what feminism is about. But maybe there's stuff to be said/thought about. What's the general feeling?

    Political polling

    ...right social media success with the youth in Anglosphere countries has been limited to convincing men who can't get a girlfriend to blame feminism and wokeness but has been less successful on issues around race and immigration. Edit: plus the obvious point that Reform are the Continuity...

    Critiquing Oasis

    ...period seemed to be over, and that mainstream 'landfill hip-hop' had become just as conformist, and just as much a rebellion 'against feminism, and "the new man" and musical innovation' as Fozzie puts it, as Oasis and their ilk. (In this country Tim Westwood 'stamping his brand on a human...

    Russell Brand: rape and sexual abuse allegations, grifting and general dodginess - discussion

    I’m talking about the landscape of attitudes towards it rather than the landscape of offending.

    Golliwog in the window - should this really be in court?

    I think the dynamics differ somewhat in the US, where I suspect the theory stems from, than the UK. Which confuses it somewhat given how UK centric this board is.

    Feminism and violence again women

    It might be an idea for men to look for books on feminism for men. Feminism books are read by men from the male perspective and that can kick up problems. Men need to either work to set aside their male perspective when reading these books and-or be prepared to find themselves confused, in...

    Roger Waters self indulgent twat / not self indulgent twat

    There's a thread about violence against women, and once upon a time I suggested that it wasn't a good look to call a female poster a cunt, on that particular thread. It was explicitly limited to that context, i think thats clear. It certainly wasn't a general "don't call a woman a cunt ever" -...

    Films you have seen at the cinema 2024

    ...to see the film because I loved the novel. It’s slightly alarming to me that this has not been the majority experience. The novel is about feminism, colonialism, socialism, capitalism. It isn’t an individualist fable - as I suppose the film could be read - but very much a collectivist...

    Russell Brand: rape and sexual abuse allegations, grifting and general dodginess - discussion

    Not to say anythinga better but even to have queues of cops proceeding through the criminal justice system is a small improvement.

    BrewDog: yet another hip company using 'rebel' language to sell its stuff

    I asked a question, surely that’s allowed? But we’ll done for backing up your chum.

    Misogynist barbarians in Alabama impose forced pregnancy law

    I don't really give a flying fuck about whether feminism benefits men. I'm not trying to get their approval.

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

    Yeah, you tell those uppity women how to do feminism!

    Political polling

    I think something they will struggle with as the UK's new crank/far-right party is that as you say - they're nowhere with young people and in Scotland. And no Farage vehicle ever will be, and Farage can't even get deposed by a slick young fashy in a suit because Reform UK is a company that he...
