    I'm female but I'm not too fond of it. There's too many females that want more rights than men. I advocate true equality between both sexes.

    If you're referring to what feminism once was before the internet gave public voices to even the most ignorant fucks of society - treatment based on one's characteristics, resume, work ethic etc. As opposed to one's genitalia - then I think it's a fantastic thing.

    This current modern wave of feminism, however, is horse shit. You're never going to convince men that women deserve equal respect and that women are as fit and capable as being valued members of society as men if you're also saying that we need male protection in order to live our lives. You certainly won't win any hearts and minds by blaming all males for the crimes of a minority of males.

    Women are no more important than men. Women deserve no special treatment. Both men and women are capable of being strong or gentle and women levying assignment of characteristics onto sex only perpetuate the idea that your sex determines who you are. Which hurts everyone. Stahp.

    There are different "branches" of feminism and to be fair, I'm not sure if I fully understand any of them, but I do agree with a few concepts:

    1) Equal pay for equal work.
    2) A right to an abortion.

    There's stuff I'm willing to point out as sexist, but I'm not sure how you'd implement anti-misogyny laws, know what I'm saying?

    • Oh, please. People behind an ideology with the views of the world in which that ideology vomits out are the least unique people around. Hence why it's an ideology, they share the same, or atleast many of the same views and beliefs as the next person that follows the same ideology.

    Feminism is just another marketing scheme by the great corporations of the world to cement their position into that top 1% wealth zone. And they're exploiting female nature, knowing that women are conformist group thinkers. They're basically sucking the world dry of resources and the women are the instrument.

    Feminism wasn't created by women. It was created by philanthropist marxists in the early 1900's. They didn't care about women. It was nothing but a big diversion.

  • I think it advocates female supremacy in an indirect way. They primarily, if not only focus on female issues even if those issues have been refuted and/or create female issues out of thin air. They sit there and say they are for the rights of all groups yet would rather create non-issues for women before they even consider helping men's issues. Simply look at this new trend of exclusively blaming men for things everybody does such as manspreading, manslamming, manterupting, etc, etc.

    Hell, even in the past feminism had a lot of hate involved which even I didn't know about. Sure it has done some good things but there have been plenty of terrible groups that hae done good things, groups like the KuKluxKlan for example.

    I've gone in to this enough times for people to know why I dislike it so I won't go in to it too much, I'll just leave a few links that are a worthwhile look.

    Are you proud of hating feminism? My guess is that you're either just some gullible idiot who believes that what the media portrays as feminism is actual feminism (because it's not; feminism isn't about hating men, it's about wanting the same respect that a man in society gets), or that you seriously feel that women should only be cooking, baby machines that deserve no respect or rights. Either way, you're one dumb son of a bitch.

    • I'm an anti-feminist because of the lies they have told and continue to tell even when they have been refuted. I am an anti-feminist because they promised equality for all genders yet primarily, if not exclusively focus on women.

      Your guess is one from a gullible idiot. Stop using the media as a scapegoat. The media rarely ever portrays feminism as bad, it's feminists that portray themselves as bad.

      Stop being a whiny brat and blaming everyone else for your own group's errors.

    People are so self centered nowadays. "I hate feminism! They hate men!" "I don't need feminism! I life in america, I can vote and I can have a job!"

    Feminism is wanting women to be equal to men, and also acknowledging that on a global basis, women are worse off. Female babies are killed, because men are stronger and smarter and will have freedom and an education. Women can't go to school, because they're gonna have to give birth to babies untill they have several boys. Women are not allowed to drive, to speak without permission, or to walk alone (if out of their place of residence.) Women get killed by stones because someone raped them - because you can't blame a man for looking and not being able to control himself when her wrist, or god forbid, forehead, nose, NECK, was showing.

    Just because we have a lot of perceived equality in our rich countries, and we are not in danger of beimg killed because we were raped out of wedlock, doesn't mean there"s no use for feminism anymore.

    And if you say that you were thinking of 'the feminists who just hate men and want to start a huge lesbian colony to get rid of them,' then just grow up a bit. You HAVE TO realize that tose are extremists, and that the people who do any good are the calm feminists fighting for true equality of the sexes.

    • I love how you say how people are so self centred today and imply feminism is the opposite of being self centred.

      Feminism is wanting women to be equal to men but they don't want men to be equal to women. Basically, feminism wants women to have all the positives in societyy men with none of the negatives while not fighting for men to have the positives women have that men do not.

      -_- You know, you're possibly the worst type of feminist. I can't fucking stand feminists like you. Feminists barely EVER address those subjects women in other areas face unless it's to explain why feminism is so great, even though most feminists do nothing to help those women. You can have most feminists screaing and talking for 24 hours about some stupid first world problem like manspreading or the "patriachy" in places like the US and then you'll have the fuckin' nerve to sit there and say we need feminism to help women in areas you never speak about unless it's to makee your group look moral. You essentially USE the suffering of those women to make your own group look moral when the vast majority of the time your group does nothing for those women.

      No doubt the self-righteous SJW of this site will thumb you up and this comment down for saying that but whatever. Te psuedo-moral people of this group can pat themselves on the back for supports using suffering that they care very little about to support a group that is about stoping firt world problems.

      • I noticed that on these topics feminists primarily use the thumb feature to voice their views indirectly. My bet is because they're too cowardly to put their views on display because then they run the risk having their views challenged and shown to be invalid which would make them have to answer the question of "Will I accept my views or wrong or keep my refuted beliefs regardless of me being shown it is wrong?"

        Thumb cowards are everywhere on here. They want to give the impression their views are right and oppositional views are false without actually showing why they are right and why the opposition is wrong, so they do as I explained above.

        Thumb-cowards. :)

    I think feminism has achieved a lot of good things, but I also question many aspects of it. I viewed this vid (link below) some time ago and was intrigued by the claims that feminism was invented and funded by some of the richest and powerful people in the world - the Rockefellers.

            I don't understand your argument. You can be a feminist and have nothing to do with other feminists, there are feminist groups, but to be a feminist literally only means that you believe all people should have equal rights.

              If you can't understand that the concept of equality is not exclusive to the feminist ideology and that feminism owns the concept with equality then I am a bit shocked.

            Yes, who are you to be the judge, jury and executioner? Having a baby is a LIFE CHANGING event, and is traumatic for the female body.

            What about women's rights to their own bodies? An embryo has more rights than women, and we wonder if we need feminism? As it's still okay for men and women without any relationship to a woman to decide that she has to have pain, a reduced income, and a totally different life?

            Talk about "surviving' conception too, yeah? Any idea how many 'babies' that die before they're conceived? Also please make it illegal for a man who shoots blanks to have sex - that's not productive towards having a baby.

              I believe abortion is discrimination against a human being based on her or his age, physical size, and place of residency.

              I believe an unborn human being should be safe in the womb. Unfortunately, they are not.

              Abortion is a human rights issue. It comes down to whether or not you believe that what is growing inside a woman's body is a living human being or not.

              If abortion itself unjustly ends the lives of innocent children, then presumably at least 50% of those whose lives are terminated are female and potential future activists for feminist causes and the cause of women in general. Future scientists, musicians, artists, lawyers, mothers, sisters etc etc In that case, to be against abortion would be to be FOR women and FOR feminism.

              That's something I don't understand about this world/country - we get very upset (and rightly so) when children are subjected to things like sexual molestation and physical abuse.

              But when it comes to protecting the LIFE of a REAL, LIVING small human being - a developing child in a womb - that's different, somehow it's OK to terminate their life.

              Oh that's right – you do not believe it's a human being – it's a "collection of cells" or some lifeless thing. Some even say it's a parasite.

              So at what exact point in time does the "collection of cells" become a human being and receive the rights of humanity, of personhood?? Is it a human at 5 weeks, 5 hours or 5mins before birth?

              Today, a baby is a baby simply when convenient.

              It is 'tissue' or otherwise when the time is not right.

              Yet somehow, a baby IS a baby when miscarriage takes place at two, three, four months.

              A baby is called a 'tissue' or 'clumps of cells' when an abortion takes place at two, three, four months.

              Why is that? I see no difference.

          And there are people unable to have children who can adopt them. Life begins at conception. Why should an unborn, helpless child lose their life just because it's inconvenient for so called consenting adults.

          Here are the names of some notable people who were conceived out of wedlock:
          Leonardo da Vinci
          Confucius
          Alexander Hamilton
          Alexandre Dumas
          Booker T. Washington
          Jack London
          T.E. Lawrence
          Eva Perón
          Sophia Loren

          You're free to have your own opinions, but I'm certainly happy to know that their mothers were not living in a secular culture where they had access to safe and legal abortion.

          Would anyone in their right mind want to imagine a world without Leonardo DaVinci?

            If and when every single orphan is adopted, then you have a leg to stand on. Until that day, then there are plenty of babies out there needing adoption and the world needs no more.

            What about situations were the child would be so disabled that they would only live a short, painful life?

            What about where ot would jeopardise the mother's health and/or life?

            What about some of your favourite people, serious drug addicts whose babies will be born with addiction?

            I could never go through with one myself, probably not even in the two situations above that could potentially apply to me (even though i know that, intellectually, it may sometimes be the right choice) but it needs to be a legal and safe option. Otherwise, we go back to women dying from using unsanitary and unsafe "doctors" or trying it themselves at home.

              That's a whole other can of worms. Yes, there are extenuating circumstances, but 99% of abortions are for the sake of convenience. I'm not particularly active regarding any legislative changes. I do actively and unapologetically participate in prayer vigils and pro-life marches. I also donate to a clinic that provides free ultrasounds and counseling to women considering abortion as well as a home for pregnant teens.

              I used to be very pro-choice, so I can understand what you're saying and respect your point of view. I think the world would be a much dimmer place had the persons on the list above not been born. Can you imagine a world in which Leonardo DaVinci had never been born?
