Ehhhh, are they really? Maybe some are, sure. But to say all seems widely unfair. If anything, feminism is anti-patriarchy. Feminism at the core, is simply the belief that women deserve equal rights (of course, this isn't true for all forms). Now unless you firmly believe in a patriarchal system, I don't see how Feminism, every single form of it, could be perceived as anti-Male. I also fail to see how it's anti-Female, unless you are attempting to push Women into a certain role that fits your own view.
They’ve even pressured the dictionaries into adopting their definition
Bias opinion is bias.
Even many anti-feminist women believe that the government should mandate that women get paid the same as men for the same job, even though these women also believe that they should not have to work.
...huh? Women want equal pay, whilst not being forced to work? How is that a surprise? I want equal pay, and yet not be forced to work. Mexicans want equal pay, whilst not being forced to work. The pay here only occurs when these people work, of course.
And every feminist believes that women should not place much focus on being attractive towards men.
I highly doubt every feminist believes that.
For one thing, by flooding the workforce with women, wages have plummeted.
...so we shouldn't have equal rights...because wages plummeted? You realize how profitable slavery was? Should that have stayed too?
We cannot fully be ourselves in the presence of women, even if we have no desire to sleep with them. It greatly alters the social dynamics.
Women being in the workforces stops men from making rude jokes? That's their damn problem.
but men no longer have a place to be men
It literally mentioned gold clubs in the next lines, some of which are male only. There are many ways to "be a man". Why should Women be forced to sit at home all day so men "can be men"?
Another thing all feminism pushes is propaganda.
Not surprisingly, most people pushing a certain view point (Left or right wing) produce propaganda.
I also notice how he'll go on to use two instances of anecdotal evidence.
Also notice with all of these current pressing issues that they never quote the source from where they get their statistics.
Oh the hypocrisy. The article is filled with un-sourced opinions:
>Feminists are scrounging around in desperation, claiming that their ideology has been tainted by a few radicals.
>They’ve even pressured the dictionaries into adopting their definition,
>Even many anti-feminist women believe that the government should mandate that women get paid the same as men for the same job, even though these women also believe that they should not have to work. And every feminist believes that women should not place much focus on being attractive towards men.
>For one thing, by flooding the workforce with women, wages have plummeted.
>Employers will pay their employees as little as they can get away with, and if those employees know they will not likely be able to have a single-income family, then then the employers will have no reason to give them a living wage.
>Now men can often no longer afford to have a stay-at-home wife while their kids are young, and women who want to stay at home often have to work.
>This causes children to be raised in daycares and separated from their parents.
>Children often do not get the proper attention needed in those crucial early years. Yes, the average feminist wants the unskilled worker to be paid a living wage, but just because something could happen or should happen in no way means that it will happen. Wages will not increase until laborers decrease.
>If you ever get a job in construction (one of the few male-dominated fields left), you will find out just how true this is when you see the stark contrast in the way people talk. But even aside from foul jokes, when women are around, men naturally feel like they are in a different context. We cannot fully be ourselves in the presence of women, even if we have no desire to sleep with them. It greatly alters the social dynamics.
>Women get their spas and fitness gyms, but men no longer have a place to be men, even after work at the local bar or golf course. This is true for both work and college
>And women working also changes the culture of the home. Kids are often raised by daycares, and families eat dinner separately. The Betty Crocker industry has flourished, and people have forgotten how to do simple things like bake a cake or fry chicken. Men are usually no longer able to get off of a hard day’s work and just relax knowing that the missus has taken care of everything. Instead, both spouses have their share of domestic overtime.
But the most dire reason all forms of feminism are anti-male (and anti-female) is because men (and women) are no longer able to attract the opposite sex.
Are we not?....since when has this ever been true?
By consistently giving such toxic advice as “find someone who loves you as you are"
Ah yes, I can see how that would be bad advice. Not.
Patriarchy makes it difficult for women to study science or to walk down a street at night, but feminism makes it difficult for men and women to find love, one of the most basic human drives.
I'd rather have the latter than the former.
(although there were still safe-guards in the old hardline patriarchal days).
There was also the whole, "Shut up and do what we say" thing.
Every time I see a gay family, I think, “How heartbroken is the ex-spouse that produced those children?”
....
“Why couldn’t a man save them from being in this terrible environment for 35 hours a week?”
Have you ever thought that that Women likes the independence?
Jesus, what a toxic site.
