Women’s rights have gone ‘too far’, say majority of Gen Z and millennials, study shows

By framing it as women’s “rights” they’ve already seeded a response.

MrFreezePeach · 2023-03-09T12:48:29+00:00

Sadly its not their rights that are the problem.

Its their excessive priviledge that is....their priviledge to violate men's rights.

KrazyJazz · 2023-03-09T15:38:47+00:00

Jesus-Christ! They can't help but lie and mislead, ffs.

Title:

Women’s rights have gone ‘too far’, say majority of Gen Z and millennials, study shows

Then, almost immediatly, but waayyyy smaller:

Some 52 per cent of Gen Z and 53 per cent of millennials say society has gone so far in promoting women’s rights that it is discriminating against men, a survey by Ipsos UK and the Global Institute for Women’s Leadership at King’s College London found.

Kelly Beaver MBE, the chief executive of Ipsos, UK and Ireland, said: “Our ongoing research into gender equality shows that we have made significant progress with nearly half of people now agreeing equality will be achieved within their lifetime.

“However, there are signs that the public are starting to push back on this progress to date, which is potentially worrying, but it may also be a sign that real change is happening in society and change can often make people uncomfortable and resistant.

“Over the coming years we will continue to measure this shift and I hope that we will see this discomfort shift to acceptance, acceptance that achieving gender equality is an essential evolution for British society.”

The indoctrination is strong with this one. Completely detached and fully ignorant to the facts on the ground.

Misleading title, of course. It's not that we are against women having rights, it's that the feminist movement has gone too far and misandry has gone too far.

drakoguard · 2023-03-09T14:53:07+00:00

It’s not really surprising at all sadly. They spend our whole lives telling us how you should be proud of who you are but as soon as it’s men’s turn you get told to be quiet and shamed. God forbid you are born with another immutable characteristic (sorry white folks) that is part of the social zeitgeist to hate.

At the end of the day any feminist or person taught/raised by them hates men deep down inside. It is taught at a young age and reinforced throughout puberty. They parade with “Kill All Men” signs and certainly praise that hateful rhetoric when they get together in private. If they really believed an ounce of what they preach hate wouldn’t be a core part of their message. Yet here we are with an endless toxic fallout from misandrists, that supposedly don’t exist. Feminists don’t want equality they want revenge and will only be satisfied when we are all gone and paid the price for sins we did not commit. At least their lack of any clear plans to fix their problems and constant hate speech signal as much.

Why would anyone want to engage with a belief that asks you to hate yourself for who you are? At least religions can offer you heaven for that price.

Yeah. Not allowed to disagree with this one.

Achilles982 · 2023-03-09T17:14:04+00:00

you should put " on rights as well. Because what some people are asking for are not rights for women. Its straight on discrimination against men.

GltyUntlPrvnInncnt · 2023-03-09T17:27:02+00:00

Women's rights are very important and I'm all for them. My problem are those hateful anti-male feminists.

Early-Department-234 · 2023-03-09T18:36:14+00:00

Canadian feminists are like tyrants and they have the full backing of government, police and the judicial system to oppress men. And this isn't hyperbole. Try suing a modern woman in court and see how they treat a man.
Canadian feminism is just a bunch of ivory tower bureaucrats complaining that they don't have the same privileges as the alpha elite one percenters.

Character_Pirate_618 · 2023-03-09T15:17:21+00:00

Feminists protest against men in the cities and on the streets that men built and maintained.

Salkinov · 2023-03-09T15:51:18+00:00

Honestly i tried to argue that men have basicially not more priviliege than women in our society (I'm from Germany) and all i got was insults, no arguments whatsoever. At this point i'm certain that feminism is an ideology and hast almost nothing to do with its original roots.

aerial_coitus · 2023-03-09T16:17:43+00:00

Right. But nobody wants to do anything about it. The cat is out of the bag. Try and tell women they have excessive privileges that need to be reined in. Go ahead and try it. Let me know how that goes. I will wait.

JJnanajuana · 2023-03-09T22:05:05+00:00

On the plus side, according to the article even 41% of women agree that society has gone so far in promoting 'women's rights' that it is discriminating against men

Professional-You2968 · 2023-03-09T11:49:58+00:00

I'll wait for these people to start loving the boomers again.

APA770 · 2023-03-09T22:57:17+00:00

Women can't name one right that men have that women don't have. They always come up with some ridiculous nonsense that has nothing to do with rights. They are just bitter that they are not as privileged as the top 1%, not understanding that those privileges have nothing to do with gender.

AgeOfReasonEnds31120 · 2023-03-09T16:06:17+00:00

More than boomers and Gen X!? Wow, for once my generation is based when it comes to equality.

Frank77GLD · 2023-03-09T18:41:42+00:00

Yes it's gone to far. It's only about woman now.

gowithflow192 · 2023-03-09T20:25:40+00:00

Look at the top comments on that article. I definitely sense in the last couple of years an increased awareness of mens rights.

Magical-Hummus · 2023-03-10T13:52:19+00:00

Women's Rights or Feminism?

Starski09 · 2023-03-09T21:19:37+00:00

Women-only rights has gone too far, it's not really rights when it's just blatent sexism at this point. If you treat a race differently because of their race you're still racist, same goes with gender.

Whatever you decide is best for one gender, it should automatically be the same for any other gender. This goes for education and all the way to the court room.

4chan_Dubs_Guy · 2023-03-09T15:55:26+00:00

This problem is further exaggerated when we can’t a straight answer to what a woman is.

eye_of_gnon · 2023-03-10T00:09:44+00:00

legally speaking most countries already have gender equality

feminists want far more than that

ChaosOpen · 2023-03-10T04:56:47+00:00

It's really quite amazing how quickly the author managed to turn "most people feel women's rights have gone too far and aren't up for advancing it" into "people are afraid of speaking out for women's rights."

Away_Entrance1185 · 2023-03-10T12:26:27+00:00

To me, the problem isn't women's rights rather it's the lack of men's rights. If women would get a right to free roller coaster rides I would only have an issue with it if this "right" wouldn't be extended to men and boys.

63daddy · 2023-03-09T15:52:00+00:00

Note the article says it hopes there will be more of an acceptance to these policies that in reality favor women. That’s where we are gong: advantaging women is the accepted status quo.

StingRayFins · 2023-03-09T16:34:44+00:00

It's been too far for a few decades. It really didn't take much to "catch up."

Now it's just supremacy and more power driven by greed and hedonism.

MezzaCorux · 2023-03-09T18:22:03+00:00

The sad thing is the idea of rights has been butchered to the point that people think privileges are the same as rights. Rights are something you are born with that cannot be given, only taken away. If your “right” requires the action of others, think compelled speech or healthcare, then it is not a right. Even r/MensRights has this problem as about half the stuff advocated for aren’t actually rights (not that I disagree with what is being advocated for as we should strive to treat everyone with the respect and dignity they deserve).

Spare_Development615 · 2023-03-09T22:41:15+00:00

The govt can't give you rights, it can only take away.

NeoLosman · 2023-03-09T19:21:26+00:00

Such sentiments aren't remotely new https://www.thedailybeast.com/feminism-has-gone-too-far Note the dateline on this one. Dunno how much credit we can really give The MRM for the growth of such sentiments, when most of the public still believes that Feminism/identity politic more generally are a good thing, and that we've just strayed from the path of righteousness

AbysmalDescent · 2023-03-09T18:37:57+00:00

This would be far promising if it wasn't for the observation that most, even genZ and millennials, seem to oppose feminism either because they are raised with traditional values or because they despise the idea of female accountability. They don't oppose feminism because it's harming men, promoting inequality or defending harmful/toxic qualities in women, they just oppose feminism because they want a to revert back to a different kind of inequality.

Imtoxic38 · 2023-03-09T19:26:57+00:00

Urgh ffs, STOP. SAYING. TOXIC. Christ sake. Youre litterally giving that cringey word weight when ever u use it. Unbelievable seeing people of this sub spew that pathetic word. Let it be used by the cringe lords, youre litterally giving it a thumbs up by using it.

Its not a good word at all. Come up with something better. Soon as i see someone in this sub use that word i instantly stop reading and just think. Unbelievable.

WhatsUpDaawk · 2023-03-09T12:14:44+00:00

I think a lot of people want to blame their failed lives on feminism or womens rights but the reality is their anger towards half the population and their gullibility to get swept up in the hate is what stops them from succeeding.

Mr-Cali · 2023-03-09T22:12:48+00:00

The hell! Lol i feel like woman are losing their rights faster then most people. Whoever wrote this article definitely has an agenda.

sakuragasaki46 · 2023-03-09T19:26:37+00:00

I agree. Women and children >!and entrepreneurs!< have too many rights. We must restrict some of them if we want this society to survive.

hottake_toothache · 2023-03-09T20:57:35+00:00

The framing in this article is hilarious. Totally gyocentric.

solemnoak · 2023-03-09T23:55:00+00:00

Ya think?

Fit_Hold7785 · 2023-03-10T00:23:18+00:00

Rights? Let them have it, they will soon have there "snu snu" of a victory while they complain about why their car is no longer working.

shydude92 · 2023-03-10T00:35:31+00:00

Finally people are starting to wake up. Feminism made sense when women weren't allowed to vote, work outside the home, or safely leave an abusive relationship. At that point it still was about equality and human dignity. But since at least 1990, when the focus has been more on exacting every degree of both comfort and superiority, while not providing the same to men and ignoring their concerns and gradual downfall, it's shifted into more of a zero-sum game pitting the genders against each other and convincing that one doesn't need the other, which never produces positive effects and only contributes to growing political discord.

There's also the hypocrisy aspect, from multiple angles. When men are expected to give up any privileges they may have had in the pre-1970 social order, but are not relieved of any of their traditional responsibilities that balanced them, it really does begin to look less like a movement towards social equality and more toward women's convenience at any cost, that being and including male quality of life. Inequalities against men are routinely glossed over, while any remaining against women generate almost fanatical outrage. People see the inherent double standards, gaslighting, and lack of integrity present in this approach and no longer want to endorse it.

Full-Bluebird385 · 2023-03-10T01:55:37+00:00

Feminists, don't stop until 50% of all oil rig workers, front-line soldiers, and furniture movers are women. You still have more glass ceilings to break. Equality!!

SecTeff · 2023-03-10T09:42:36+00:00

I think the biggest problem is the loss of universal rights - instead we talk about the rights of groups and their attention and privilege all depends on politics.

If we all just focused on universal rights and equality for all rather than caring about the rights of our own little group the world would be a better place

dodgeunhappiness · 2023-03-10T11:47:30+00:00

Millenians will be fucked by previous generation, and their own generation women who will get promoted because of their gender.
