| 12 | 5 Feminist Myths That Will Not Diethe modern feminist movement provokes a response that advocates genuine oppression. That's a reactionary idea, and it doesn't fall in line with what's actually going on in the Western World - the US, Canada, UK, and France (for example) are extraordinarily geared towards female support; In the US alone, the "Gender Wage Cap" is still quoted as if it was gospel by President Obama, The First Lady, and the assumed Democratic Party Nominee for 2016 (Hillary Clinton).

You opened the door! - Misogyny! You bought me dinner! - Misogyny! You didn't buy me dinner! - Misogyny! At this point, I just do things that I think are appropriate, like opening the door anyways.

If I went around saying "I'll sell you a $1,000,000 policy if we have sex" I might very well sell a fuckton of policies, but it's unethical because the sale is conditional on sex. I'm legally bound by ethics laws. If I did shit like that, I'd not only lose my license before I could say a damned thing, I'd probably end up in prison for a long time.

They should be using their outrage machine to out her as a fraud, a liar and a damaging factor to women in the industry.

Feminists want to limit straight men's choices. FTFY In any rate, you might notice that behavior is strange; what's worse is you might notice it's not largely reported, let alone discussed.

The submitted post was about an erroneous correlation between the Holocaust and women at home. Then 5th Law brought us into this notion that only men suffer from the World Wars; Holocaust issues aside, once we got into this false notion that all men were forced into war, the door was opened to a discussion on how WW2 impacted human lives. That means the issues that impacted both men and women are equally valid. That is why I brought up the global, cross gender issues of combat. I … | /r/MensRights | 20/03/14 09:13 PM |

They were forced in to identical uniforms, given numbers and ranks, had their heads shaved and were sent to die against their will. That final part is turning this into an episode of r/BadHistory and it really needs to stop.

Please join the discussion.I think you're missing his point - he's saying that modern feminism is a bigoted, sexist platform which is the antithesis of a progressive social justice society (something the Democrats in the US support).

That's a specific statement that really needed to be in there, and it's why I was confused - many of my friends have dated ethnic Asians, and even a few foreign exchange students (I'm from California; it's a growing Asian population). edit: If dating Asian Americans is degrading other American women, then that's a completely asinine argument.

But is its hyena-pack mentality while outing men’s half-witted, graceless, must-try-harder shortfalls a form of sexism in itself? Just looked this up. Why is this a thing?!

The same is true with sexism - it's not OK to be sexist to women, but the moment anybody even dares mention how women can be sexist towards men they're labeled as some "not worth the time" misogynist. The name of the game is to degrade, to devalue.

Yet here people stand talking as if she is guilty because there is evidence showing she conspired to do great harm to a man, if not have him murdered - ie: the difference between murder and voluntary manslaughter, the latter of which is the plea deal she refused... so here comes the murder trial.
