Nope. I just proved that the definition is wrong. I have a feeling you did not even take a look at that link did you. Here's a link from a more reliable source for you: https://www.britannica.com/topic/feminism ​ I'm sorry, but I'm going to believe the Britannica over some guy off Reddit when it comes to sources of information. ​ Our entire subreddit is based on the horrific imbalance and greed of feminists and the lack of scientific evidence for their claims. So, it's less anti-feminism, and mo…

So... your entire subreddit is based on arguing against the dictionary for stating a definition...? ​ I'm sorry, but facts don't care about your feelings. Feminism is defined as the equality of the sexes.

Everyone should have the same rights that is without question Can I ask why you are subscribed to this subreddit? How can you support everyone having the same rights without supporting the sexes having the same rights? Isn't that a contradiction?

That is the issue with feminism. it demands special rights and privileges. Source? Because Feminism is literally defined as the equality of the sexes...

I can't help but think that you're being deliberately stupid yourself. I am linking to a popular dictionary that gives a definition of the word "parasite" and saying that a foetus meets that definition. I cannot understand how you lack the basic intelligence to understand this.

"Parasite: A parasite is a small animal or plant that lives on or inside a larger animal or plant, and gets its food from it." Source: https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/parasite That is a definition. I'm here to back up a person's statement with facts.

What a low level response.

It's bang on the fallacy, regardless of you deny it is. They don't follow the theory of feminism so therefore they are not feminist. How are you not getting this?

Where did I claim to hate feminists? What I did claim is that the movement, in its current form, is not fighting for BOTH sexes, merely the female sex. Therefore, female supremacy.

No true scotsman relies on the absense of fact. I am stating facts. Also, who are you to say they aren't feminists, they identify as feminists, don't they?

Please tell me what practical law that feminism has pushed to advocate on a man’s right. Not a right to bring the sex’s to equality but an issue that has improved the rights of men without also helping women.

This doesn't necessarily indicate that the pressure was enough to cause pain, her ability to bruise and her pain threshold come into play here. I have never met a person that has bruised without feeling pain, in fact, it is a rather rare condition that they would have mentioned.

Playing devil's advocate how does the bruising suggest that she asked him stop? It shows that he put enough pressure there for there to be pain in the area.

He did something sexual during consensual sex. You think hurting someone until they cry is SEXUAL!? you are sick if that is the case. Yeah she says she asked him not to touch her tits, he says she didn't. Right, I think the bruising shows who was the most likely to be telling the truth in this scenario. Based on the evidence given (her word, his word) and the fact that contact with tits was made (bruising) the courts have decided her word holds more weight then his. For no reason other then they…

I would agree that women's rights definitely need fighting for across the world. I would not agree that feminism is required to do so, and I frankly hope places that are presently starting to address women's issues, like India, learn from the West's mistakes and find better methods. Feminism literally means "the advocacy of women's rights on the ground of the equality of the sexes.". How do you propose women become equal without advocating for their equality? Contrary to what feminists claim, ma…

Yes, so? Cancer Research is about cancer. Doesnt mean that they don't care about HIV. Mens rights Movement is about men. Is says so in the very name. Why can't the two groups work together instead of hating eachother? Women cannot drive in SA. Men have a higher suicide rate. Both are large issues that should be focused on. Why ignore one because it doesn't benefit you? I am a male and am very concerned that women do not have equal rights across the world. How is that bad? How is thinking that wo…

Feminism focuses on females issues. Mens rights focuses on males issues. Saying that feminism is bad because it doesn't focus on mens issues is like saying cancer researchers are bad because they don't focus on HIV.

Advocacy in this context means "support". literally "The SUPPORT of women’s rights on the grounds of the equality of the sexes." If you support the idea that females are equal to males, then you are a feminist. If you have ever treated a woman with the same respect that you would treat a man then you are a feminist. Feminism (in the english language) means women't rights. In welsh it is "ffeministiaeth". in french it is "féminisme". In all these languages it means "women's rights". no more to it…

It absolutely follows the dictionary definition. You can redefine things however you want, doesn't make it fact.
