A few months ago, there was a post on the antifeminist sub. The post was a screenshot from an incel website that was posted on the Nothowgirlswork sub. There was a comment from nothowgirlswork which roasted the incel post.
The incel said he felt anxiety when he walked on the streets and saw women. The comment from nothowgirlswork was ridiculing him for feeling fear of women. He didn't say anything misogynistic. There are some incels (on incel websites) who condone horrible things like raping women. This post was not like that.
It made me think that society expects men to be fearless and brave. Men are human and fear is a normal emotion that everyone has. It's normal to feel anxiety around women, if the man has been traumatized in the past. Maybe the incel was traumatized by a woman in the past. People shouldn't judge someone without knowing them.
The truth is women can be just as dangerous as men. Society has to stop thinking women are not as dangerous.
If a woman said she felt anxiety around men, redditors would be supporting her. They would say men are rapists and she should be scared of them. She would get all the empathy and sympathy. Reddit shows what people think secretly. Many people in society have this double standard too.
A few men being billionaires doesn't mean patriarchy exists like the way feminists have defined it.
The vast majority of billionaires being men is very different from "a few men being billionaires".
Substitute billionaires with CEOs, politicians, etc
The patriarchy is being dismantled (thank Christ) but it's still around. Especially among older generations.
And there's a kind of neo-patriarchy being set up by Trump, Bolsonaro, etc and their followers. Abortion access in the US is a huge one.
And of course that's not even mentioning open patriarchal societies like the Middle East.
You still haven't given us the definition you're using.
Here's one, from the AskFeminists subreddit:
It's easy to see that the last part is simply not true. Ergo, we don't live in a patriarchy.
What??
I mean, there's some nuance, but "the vast majority of CEOs are men" kinda implies "women are largely excluded from it". It's a very simple conclusion. I can get discussing the nuance but to say "simply not true"? What in the redpill?
Ah, there it is. If women don’t take a role, feminists insist it is because they are excluded.
Sure, you're right, it's pure coincidence
This is fun. Feminists think women can do anything except have agency. Because you can't admit that women might have different preferences or abilities from men, every situation where women don't participate at equal levels to men "must be the result of misogyny".
I'm an egalitarian, the open misandry of feminism never ceases to be horrifying.
Feminism: everything I don't like is "incel"
It says so much, so quickly. Feminists judge men by their ability to get sex. Ordinarily they would call this "ableism", but feminists give themselves a pass on this. It just feels good for them to punch down at low status men, I guess? Feminists say men who can't get sex are dangerous. Which is convenient because feminists absolutely loathe the low value men they didn't want to have sex with in the first place. Labelling them as dangerous creates a reason to contain and control them. A perfect feminist circle.
I'm not involuntarily celibate, but seeing a feminist vomit your misandrist hatred overtly is always a refreshing change from more typical passive aggressive feminist behavior.
I missed this before. This and your comment above violate our rule against personal attacks. Banned for one month. Repeat offenses will lead to a permaban.
Those men are extremely hardworking and lucky.
