Feminism Thread

[Ksandra]

I think the goal is simply to get women into the field who are interested via greater opportunity.

I think if you just encourage it when they are young that's going to go a lot further than stacking the cards against men.

Didn't watch this video til now, love it.
Subscribed to her.

I posted that like 5 years ago dawg

[Charismatic]

But I didn't watch it.

[Churchill]

it was probably because of the sticker on the fridge.

If youre crazy enough to actually watch the video. Do not watch it unless you want your brain cells to wither and melt away.

[Kuishen]

Fuck you for making me waste brain cells on that video.

[Not Kuno]

Dude I warned you not to watch it. I'll add more warnings in there. You could have guessed by the gif and even the video preview that it was going to go full retard.

[Nirokun!]

Sorry, I'm also late to the game. I've been watching her the past couple days while I dilate. She's pretty awesome (long videos really pass the time, 45mins+ omg!)

I got to "patriarchy" and had to turn it off. Anyone who bangs on about "patriarchy" isn't worth listening to.

[Kuya]

Patriarchy is like the feminists equivalent of The white man trying to keep us down '. Not sure what the gay equivalent is yet. Heteronormativity?

[Tyrath]

So how about that Obama saying that lady is by far the "best looking attorney genera"? Feminists up in arms about it.

[Charismatic]

They are retarded.
I understand what they are going for; no one wants to be "respected" just because of their looks but if you actually listened to him... he went on and on about her credentials and then was basically like "oh and by the way she looks damn good too."

Let me also mention that he calls males good-looking ALL THE TIME and no one raises a fuss about it.

Yeah some of the arguments I've seen that have me scratching my head. I took it to be a jokey compliment. It's not objectifying to say someone looks good, even if it is in a professional setting. But what do I know, obviously I can only see it from my privileged male mind.

[ronin sparthos]

When you've gone full retard everything is seen as a conspiracy by the powers that be.

[Charismatic]

Also... lmao @ this piece on it.

"He should know better than to treat men and women equally" is the narrative.

wait people other than like church really go for that ncfm chick's shit? rofl

[Charismatic]

Anyone with the ability to reason... most likely.
No one has attacked her for anything other than having an affiliation yet. How about expressing your disagreement with her ideas?

[Plow]

I don't want to to fucking watch that trash again to find specifics, but 99% of her statements are strawmen arguing against the ridiculous mentality maybe 0.00001% of "feminists" actually have and pretending it applies to everything.

[Plow]

God, I just went to watch it and remembered how every time she attempts to express an "opposing" view she does a fucking chipmunk voice.


Ok, and now I'm a minute in and she's talking about how birth control is purely to benefit women and men don't have any.


Dude, fuck this lol.
