61% of women in the US now identify as feminists, including over 70% of college-educated women

rationalguyforsure · 2023-01-27T20:14:13+00:00

That’s leaves 30% who don’t. It’s a start.

God! this is terrorfying. This many misandrists in one society. This many people following a fascist ideology is going to destroy society.

A good portion of that 61% actshually believe that feminism is "just about gender equality". They don't put any though, research or effort into it. They've just heard that that's what feminism is about, so when they get asked on some random survey, they're like "yeah, I'm for gender equality so I'm a feminist".

In reality, that group are MRAs (just without much of the "A" piece).

I’ve seen surveys that show most women aren’t feminist and surveys such as this claiming most are. Many surveys have a bias. Compare the following two questions for example:

Feminism is about gender equality, anyone who believes in gender equality is a feminist. Are you a feminist?
Feminism is an anti-male movement that has won many policies disadvantaging men. Feminism promotes a gender war. Are you a feminist?

I didn’t see anywhere in the PEW summary information specifically how they defined feminism, but I think it’s clearly a loaded survey. They ask many questions which clearly portray feminism positively and not a single question that addresses the anti-male nature of feminism. This not only biases what feminism is, but who’s likely to answer the survey. Similarly, I didn’t see how this survey was targeted, which could also have a huge bias on who answered and whether that accurately reflects the population at large.

These poll findings vary dramatically based on methodology and how the question is asked. For example - notice in this poll, only 19% said it described them “very well”, and 42% said it described them “somewhat well.” It’s not even clear what the third option was but it got twice as much support as “very well.”

Here’s a poll that shows the number at 29% when asked the question, yea or no

I don’t believe this for a second. Hell, even i believe in “equality between the sexes”, but i absolutely despise Feminism. So i refuse to believe the two didn’t get mixed up, because equality and Feminism aren’t the same thing.

6/10 men think feminism is empowering. Our society is ruined

g1455ofwater · 2023-01-27T20:15:53+00:00

Perhaps the terminology for college needs to change from college educated to college indoctrinated.

SweatyAdvance · 2023-01-27T19:02:52+00:00

I suppose after the rise of Q-Anon I shouldn't be surprised anymore by the amount of gullible people that fall for hateful ideologies....but here we are.

TheSnesLord · 2023-01-27T22:26:56+00:00

Also don't forget, women do not have to label themselves as "feminists" in order to have feminist ideology and agendas.

If you consider that aspect above, the percentage will be much higher.

iainmf · 2023-01-28T01:51:55+00:00

How to get the numbers up.

Define feminism as something everyone can agree with
Include the vague category 'somewhat well'
Count the majority in the vague category as included in the decisive category.

I mean, if feminism is the belief in the equality of the sexes then the term feminist describes a lot of anti-feminists 'somewhat well'.

In the slightly near future I will be watching the gradual Pussification of America from afar as I retire in the Philippines. Good luck to all my subjugated American male counterparts left behind.

alpmaboi · 2023-01-28T08:35:54+00:00

It is OK that they identify themselves as Feminists. As long as they are not hating men.

suj1290 · 2023-01-28T10:30:21+00:00

And 39% lied

Feminism itself is not inherently the problem. As a male born from a mother and having sisters I would LOVE equality for women.

However neo-feminism which is what modern day feminism has turned into, has been jacked by the alt... i dont even know if theyre right wing or ultra left anymore, where they (instead of female equality) want to actively cause INEQUALITY to men to FEEL better. A self centered ideology that is so "woke" and toxic that they froth at the fucking mouth when you dont follow it. last time i watched someone froth like that at the mouth and spit hate it was a documentary on hitler. and yes i am comparing apples to apples. ultra fascists which is what these neo-fems are, are not different from hitlers ideology of "i dont like this thus I will eradicate it".

theyre literally writing their own mein kampf as we speak.

johanis15 · 2023-01-28T01:29:23+00:00

So most women are misandrists, nothing new.

Fantastic_Box3257 · 2023-01-28T05:35:45+00:00

Great ,this will lead to early revolution that would be no men interaction and work for these feminist, men won't make buildings in name of females ,no minal jobs for them like plumbing ,sewer cleaning

The jobs they don't want ,let them taste the consequences without it

Women want quotas sure ,they now should have obligation to be drafted in army to quota same as men

If they themselves screw up in army stating their efficiency then each country will have same ratio of quota mandate

EviessVeralan · 2023-01-28T05:59:23+00:00

One thing i wonder about this is how many people are calling themselves feminists actually keep up with modern feminist thought and how many were told "Feminist means equality so i guess im a Feminist".

LoomisKnows · 2023-01-28T10:05:28+00:00

Ew, it used to be like 12%

Oh nevermind, it's 61% believe in gender equality, they've just defined feminism as that.

Lots of future cat moms on the way. Best time to start to invest in wine and cat litter

Ugh, i miss the 90s when people could date and not care about politics

Early-Department-234 · 2023-01-28T15:22:04+00:00

In Canada, it's probably higher, but Canada hides their misandry because they can't look bad to the world as a "neutral country".

JCgamerX · 2023-01-29T15:22:31+00:00

what does somewhat agree entail

tiredfromlife2019 · 2023-01-29T18:03:08+00:00

Its more accurate to say that Modern women are by and large feminist. They may say otherwise but when push comes to shove, they show that they have feminist beliefs.

And if its not that, its tradcon beliefs.

PTSDforMe · 2023-01-30T17:53:03+00:00

Good. It should be 100%
