/u/tbri's deleted comments thread

STEM_logic's comment deleted. The specific phrase:

I mean, If I was a woman, and I genuinely believed in feminist theory (i.e that gender norms are on the most fundamental level, a unidirectional system of male advantage of female victimhood), I would be a walking misandric feminist stereotype for sure. I don't blame the people, it's the theory and the rhetoric which are the are the problem. And until they're gotten rid of, none of this "battle of the sexes" shit will ever end, and actual progress towards equality will remain excruciatingly slow.

Broke the following Rules:

  • No generalizations insulting an identifiable group (feminists, MRAs, men, women, ethnic groups, etc)

Because of my username or my posts?

The feminist sentiment I mentioned in the post you replied to is pretty common if you look at feminist "privelege 101/how to be a good ally" type material.

This post summed up this attitude in it's somewhat extreme form - and also imo gave a good argument about "meaning" of the word feminism.

Obviously not all "feminists" are this extreme, but I would see such attitudes as almost inevitable to some degree in any "true believer" of feminist theory - and if you don't truly believe in feminist theory why call yourself a feminist and provide support for those who do?
