I'm just gonna go ahead and ignore most of the boneheaded posts in here and see if anyone actually wants to talk about this.

I support equal rights for men and women, but I acknowledge that there are real differences between the sexes. We're never going to have wage parity or even political parity because women are inherently less likely to be the personality type that gains power/money than men are. Women are not as aggressive or assertive as a general rule.

I appreciate honest feminists, but I think most turn it into an emotional argument rather than a logical one.

I don't think that enacting policies to change the demographics of an institution so that women are more fairly represented is inherently bad.  I can acknowledge that some such policies might be misguided, but I can't really say I feel that the trend has resulted in a lowering of quality standards, or harmed men in any way. 

Unless you're going to point to a specific policy, I think much of what you're talking about is more often a voluntary practice enacted by private institutions for benefits either from a personal ethics standpoint or for public relations reasons.  I wish it was a thing that would happen in a timely and organic manner, but these policies are such a small part of a larger movement I think it is a mistake to write off feminism because you disagree with certain tactics.

I stopped the video when he started his plug for 'The Alphabet of Manliness' sorry but I'm going to stand by my assertion that inequality still exists and I'm not going to criticize someone solely on the fact that they attempt to remedy this.

Do you avoid women who call themselves "feminists". I find them to be highly annoying and often project a very masculine energy that is a major turn off.

I assume they look for men who are major betas and want to be her butler/ gay male girlfriend.


They tell you they are feminists because they want equal rights and an equal status in society, yet do not consider that men and women are totally different creatures.

If you want to be a man hating  lesbian then by all means be one. Don't beat around the bush and torture the poor betas

quick, stick your finger down your throat and un-swallow the red pill before you turn into a sadistic woman hating psychopath.



ps - happy to see this new exciting topic in the pube again!

You do realize that you're comparing a specific organized group that killed millions of people in cold blood with a collection of ideologies centered around the idea that women deserve equal treatment and recognition.  You sound legitimately insane to me.  Ideas don't kill people.

I think anti-feminism needs to be exposed for what it is: a bunch of whinging neckbeards who can't reconcile the fact that the modern understanding of human rights has made it so that socially incompetent men cannot rely on their rage alone to get their dick wet. 

This is really an important cause, standing up to outspoken college-age women who go on the internet and get passionate about human rights.  That is not a complete waste of time at all

I am perfectly happy calling the struggle for gender equality feminism.  You might think there are no problems like this in the US, but I'd call you naive or ignorant.
