"What do you think about us creating an awesome festival where only non-men are welcome until ALL men learn how to behave?"

Using that logic, I assume she's fine with making Sweden a country where only non-muslims are welcome until ALL muslims learn not to commit terror acts?

Feminists are basically copying ancient tribal practices that keep the two genders far apart unless they are married.

It’s disappointing to see so many women betray the dictionary definition of feminism.

It’s also disappointing to see these people rationalize their bigotry and not be called out on it.

Separate but equal 👍

I have thought about this for a while, but I don't think I have yet do decide what to think of it.

On the one hand, I really hate gender discrimination. On the other hand I really want anyone to be able to create any club they want to and invite anyone they want to and be able to exclude anyone they want to.

Does anyone have any arguments that could help me decide?

I'm totally open to new or old arguments on this, albeit I think I would want a fair solution; But what would be fair in his case, I wonder...

I can hear them now...

"Why don't the lights work?"

"Why doesn't the sound system work?"

"Why does the music suck?"

"I don't believe in complete separatism but I think it's important to have this festival right now"

Aka I disagree with sexism unless it benefits me

Who cares? I disagree with university female only tutorials because it disadvantages males, but this is just a concert.

If these people have a need for it, let them go nuts.

they will continue to cheer until they get older and lose their looks

By the same logic they should be more concerned with the ethnicity of attendees then gender as some groups are 20X times more likely to commit rape than others.

I wonder who's emptying the porta-potties. Does Sweden have less of a porcelain-floor problem (that is, are there more women with dirty jobs)?

IIRC "the problems at previous music festivals" was due to gangs of (predominantly) young immigrant men entering the free festival and groping women in the crowd. This went on unreported and undisturbed for a bunch of years, seemingly because the press did not believe it or want to report it. - For example, a retired policeman tried reporting it to a newspaper, but was ignored because "that's the kind of thing racists say"

I don't find it at all surprising that the right - wing, immigration - hostile party SD keeps continually rising in the polls, and is now one of the biggest individual parties

Is that just a Lilith Fair?

antilopes · 2018-09-01T23:36:43+00:00

I wonder if they’ll have a special tent for the Batikhäxor.

TheImpossible1 · 2018-09-01T23:42:43+00:00

Can we have man-only everything as a response?

My dudes.... I look forward to the day when the pendulum swings back. Every action results in an equal & opposite reaction, and every generation rebels against the one that came before.

In just a few years, we're going to have an entire generation of women with Mommy Issues. Today's girls will grow to see today's women as resentful, angry creatures who pushed away strong men, and they will rebel against that ideology. We will see an entire class of women who have a devoted respect for their strong, emotionally stable fathers. They will bear witness to the selfish ways their mother's behaved, and see how it hurt their fathers, and worked to create a toxic household environment.

Tomorrow's women will have a newfound respect for men who think & behave like men. I am age 33 now, so in 15 years I will be 48, hitting a new sexual prime & absolutely slaying college aged girls looking for a teacher.

Eyes on the horizon, my friends. The future looks bright!

"This festival was necessary because of everything that happened during festivals last year," says the 27-year-old student with long pink hair and purple lipstick as her friends nod in agreement.

LOL! I'm really sorry because it is a pretty serious topic but at the same time :D I'm also depressed because she's a year younger than me :(

Located inside an industrial building in Gothenburg's harbour, only female bands are performing and neither male security guards nor journalists are allowed to enter.

Am I to understand this as all the security are female, or that there are male security, who have to remain outside. Either way, as someone who's worked at many festivals, I'm curious, are the electricians, stage builders, etc., all women, too?

only female bands are performing

So, in other words, we're probably not missing a lot. Gotcha. There are many female artists whose work I enjoy, but I don't know any of the performers advertised on the website. Then again, maybe I'm just too old.

Statement, launched after raising more than 500,000 kronor (47,000 euros, $54,000 ) through crowdfunding, defines a transgender person as "a person who does not identify with the sex assigned to them at birth". This means transgender women born as men are allowed to attend.

Do they have to show security their equipment before they get admitted? I'm sure a man who really wanted to attend this event could put on makeup and a dress, call himself Janet, and defy anyone to question him.

i_bust_nuts · 2018-09-02T12:33:41+00:00

But what if you identify as a woman? Surely they can't deny you access right?

divers69 · 2018-09-02T16:17:16+00:00

Using their idiotic reasoning, they should ensure that women do not take their children, as between one third and two thirds of children killed by parents are killed by mothers.

I'm confused why is feminism being advertised on a men's rights sub?

Who has downvoted this, show up, coward...
