...as they are called in the movie are distributed among black, white and Asian actors, plus the whole concept of gender politics and feminism around which the theme of the movie revolves does appear to be within the realm the umbrella term woke refers to. In case you suspect me of sneaking...

More accurately: Combahee River Collective statement, 1977 Prof Kimberlé Crenshaw - Mapping the Margins: Intersectionality, Identity Politics and Violence against Women of Color, 1989 - link

I’ve never said that women do feminism wrong. I said that I do monitor misogynists when faced with the accusation that I wouldn’t care about feminism.

And further to my previous post I think a lot of men should note the title feminism and violence against women. I'd like to see terms used as women want them on this thread, rather than men impose their definitions and thus parameters to the debate

time and time again the main none trans victims of transphobia are shown to be cisgender women who do not conform to to the comphet ideals of feminity, all the more ironic given the 'intellectual' aim of TERFery is to 'protect women' whether that's cis women from the invented risk of...

According to the beeb this is the Mail's take on it. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-66242100.amp I'll be seeing it Saturday. I expect some patriarchy bashing. Hopefully it's not quite so misandry laden as The Mail is making out and more tongue in cheek.

Oh yeah. it’s the other side of the coin. same game but it affects the sex is differently I think. It can if I’m honest leave you feeling a bit bitter. fortunately I am older, slightly wiser and do have female friends so I’m not drifting into misogyny. rather a cynical general outlook which in...

...for a breif time in my family. Should be the freedom there and the economic room there to choose. Meanwhile, foodbanks. It's not entirely feminism that bought women into the work place in huge number but as you say you can double everything up, capital wise, with two working. A great deal of...

Fucking hell though, imagine accepting a job as boris johnson's ethics adviser. It's like taking on the role of Peter Stringfellow's feminism mentor.

I think it’s all part of the same thing, which is how we construct what it means to be a “man” or a “woman” and how those two constructions interrelate.

I think you don't like what you see as middle-class feminism, or perhaps it's just middle-class women, but you can't say it outright, so we get all this snidey from the side shit, and this game of being trapped into making a mistake that you'll get 'grief' for. Just say it, and have a...

...the founder of the new English political party Justice for Men & Boys (and the women who love them), and of such campaigns as the Anti-Feminism League, and Men Shouldn’t Marry, compared England to a moving train that is relentlessly privileging women and girls over boys and men. It’s time, he...

As an expert on the Frankfurt School and right-wing criticisms of such, you will of course be aware that Olavo de Carvalho, along with a number of other figures on the right, has claimed that Adorno actually wrote all of the Beatles' music as part of his plot to undermine Western civilisation. I...

All in her head apparently... https://metro.co.uk/2018/01/28/diane-abbott-says-fellow-labour-mp-jess-phillips-never-told-f-off-7266953/

Yeah, arguably one of the closest things to a prominent left Brand defender but as you say, a lot weirder and less clear than that. Never actually listened to her podcast, but from the wikipedia page: People give £47,380 per month to the podcast. Anyway, the Khachiyan quote that I'd seen going...

Can’t speak for Spandex but the thing that got me personally over a load of blind spots towards a whole load of my own behaviours, and then be able to change those behaviours, was a year’s worth of intensive and expensive therapy. I’m not sure that it’s a particularly scalable solution, though...

I felt this on the world without meat thread - lots of male posters (and to the best of my knowledge most also being white, without children and having no disabilities that impact food choice), continuously arguing about a few narrow ethical points. I made a post bringing intersectionality into...

Though let’s allow calling him a pipsqueak or a dear baby boy

...repeatedly accusing her of “lying” for daring to disagree with him - and then telling the world that he was doing that all in the name of feminism, it’s not exactly credible. Funny how the little toadies who are trying to make me the baddie in that encounter never noticed his obnoxious...

...are just getting on with work in their respective fields. It's properly shit that these people chose to use their interpretation of feminism as a justification and an underpinning of their transphobia, but they did, they did so explicitly, and it's an important part of their success in the...
