There are some real issues out there, we don't need fake ones

All that really needs to be said. It's why things like the wage gap myth have been so harmful to their cause.

Well the issue with the wage gap is the message. I think there may genuinely be a problem there, but I haven't seen a good case made. I did see a good case made for the racial wage gap on Netflix's Explained, which basically traces Black rights in America and equates the problem to the inability for blacks to get property essentially since the Civil War, or rather right after Lincoln was assassinated and Jackson turned black rights back around. Women have faced some similar issues since they basically had no rights until the feminist movement, but insofar as I know there haven't been worries of "Female Neighborhoods" or whatever, and women weren't an enslaved class.

You could also do the research yourself

Yeah that's nice but I'm not the one blowing smoke about how great feminism is, and you're not making a good case for it. Besides, I've been in a feminism class before. It was 99% indoctrination and spinning history and other shit to look much more sexist than it really was. I don't care to repeat the experience. There are some real issues out there, we don't need fake ones. You'd think a so called progressive might understand this seeing as we literally have Donald Trump the fascist in office and kids are being caged under his orders.

Are you saying that I listed fake issues or are you just harping on the fact that you only hear about random pop feminism?

I'm saying you should shut up about the whole issue because nothing you say helps the cause of feminism.

They really should focus on stuff like women in the middle east getting raped and stoned and having no rights instead of focusing on how having a hot girl in a beach body ad is fat shaming or some dumb shit like that >_> That's why no one takes them seriously.

that's actually really hard to do. That would require them making diplomatic duty to arab goverment .

Naw the gender wage gap has been soundly refuted. Men do make more money overall, but that's due to us working more and doing all the dangerous jobs and not taking time off to have kids. See people argue that same line, women make .70 for every $1 a man makes for the same job. Total bullshit. Men and women are paid the same wage, men just work more than women. Oh and also men are naturally inclined to work jobs that pay more than the jobs women are naturally inclined to work. So personal preference plays a part as well.

If office air conditioners were set according to the needs of 110 lb. women, these same individuals would be complaining about "man stank." :v

lol man, shock getting owned in yet another topic. Dude must be a masochist. Every single time he's met with an argument he can't refute he immediately resorts to childish insults. So predictable.

And steal P4wn4g3's thunder? You've already got your hands full and you've yet to make a single salient argument. Lol maybe get outta the hole you're in before you start digging yourself into another one.

I think that summing all feminism as that is just as stupid.

On top of that, it's the little things that add up and I can understand why some of those things are frustrating to a woman who is experiencing it. I know that if someone was 'mansplaining' something to me condescendingly all the time, I'd be pretty irritated about it too.

lol


Do you just come to every topic to respond to me with, 'lol' and nothing else?

Lol facts. The guy gets bent over and annihilated in every argument he partakes in. He cant handle it mentally so he tries to suppress it and play it off like hes winning.

I smashed him in an argument yesterday or the day before and hes been trying to stalk me into every topic I post in and ends up just making an even bigger ass out of himself lol. But gotta give credit where credit is due, he's a persistent little bugger! But its starting to get sad cuz i can tell he has a good heart, he's just naive and ignorant and you can tell he's been traumatized by someone cuz he's got twitter fingers.

The actions of feminism directly contradict this.

Were talking about feminism as an idea not feminists and their actions.

You don't wouldn't decry the Civil Rights Movement because of the actions of a few participants. Quit acting intentionally obtuse.
