100,000 women went on strike in Iceland

TomTomFH · 2023-12-26T08:50:56+00:00

Nobody noticed..

The protest is also very immoral and deceitful. They falsified the wage gap statistics and data by ommitting various data points. They are basically protesting to get more money than men. To make sure that you can't disprove their fake stats by calculating it yourself, those data points that they ommitted no longer exists. Honesty is becoming a male only trait is what this protest proves.

They've been doing this since 1975ish. The typical feminist stuff, Gender Pay Gap & Gender Violence. You'd think for a country that has only 370k people enforcing social change wouldn't take so long. 1/3 of the country can get together to strike but somehow can't elect people that will make the changes they want.

Surely if the female PM has to go on strike to make a difference then maybe she shouldn't be PM....

Note: 1/3 of the country stops work the country kept going with barely a ripple. Meanwhile a cple of years ago 30ish men had a day off in Sydney Australia(pop 5.3 million) and the city basically stopped. Gotta be a message there somewhere.. ;-)

I heard that no one really noticed.

Now imagine a strike by blue collar men in this country for just one day….or a week. Imagine the impact that has.

I would be 100% behind that

A former manager of mine was a femenist, when they were doing these strikes in America a few years ago she was saying how this would prove how much America needs women to work, and we need women more than men. I asked her why they don't do three opposite of a strike and tell all the men to stay home because women can do it all and before she could think about what she was saying, said "oh we couldn't do all that"

End of story.

le_maitre34 · 2023-12-26T12:49:15+00:00

I am wonder, what if men had gone on strike what happened in 24 hours?

Junior_Discipline622 · 2023-12-26T10:38:00+00:00

25% of women went on a strike that day and the economy wasn't affected by a single bit.

That shows how much women contribute to society and how this feminist propaganda is a falsified piece of cr*p.

2023-12-26T14:50:00+00:00

More than 25% of the female population went on strike, and there is no impact to the economy.

I am sorry, but I cracked up hard. That shows how little women contribute to the working economy world.

Adventurous_Copy2753 · 2023-12-26T08:45:03+00:00

"There average women isn't a misandrist"

"Radical feminists are just a small loud minority on twitter".

YNiekAC · 2023-12-26T08:01:14+00:00

Iceland feels like a mass hysteria island. Something wrong? Half of the population goes on strike or goes to demonstrations. Maybe because they are all family or some shit. But that country has to cool the fuck down

2023-12-26T14:51:27+00:00

And all the men finally got peace and quiet and time for video games

63daddy · 2023-12-26T13:43:47+00:00

If women want the same total pay as men, all they have to do is do the same work.

denisc9918 · 2023-12-26T14:04:00+00:00

Lotta dishes piling up...

Sam__Toucan · 2023-12-26T11:33:52+00:00

Did they? Funny how everything kept working fine without them :-)

HamzaAghaEfukt · 2023-12-26T11:05:17+00:00

So oppressed the White woman.

ElbowStrike · 2023-12-26T16:12:56+00:00

Iceland legislated decades ago for equal pay and that jobs had to be at least 40% one gender or the other I don’t see what they’re angry about.

Anonymous_Avocado69 · 2023-12-26T14:29:56+00:00

Men lost the right to strike due to child support courts.

2023-12-26T11:57:29+00:00

Probably still got paid.

Saying that if people want to protest, go ahead. Fight the right people though. Don't fight the other gender fight the ones in control. I got no problem with what they do. And it's worked because it's reach me on the other side of the world.

neighborhoodpainter · 2023-12-26T20:04:26+00:00

It doesn't matter how many times the wage gap is debunked, feminists will always find a way to claim the earnings gap is sexist. Women earn less because they go into lower paying jobs? It's because society brainwashed women into going for lower paying jobs.

Net_Flux3 · 2023-12-26T10:30:50+00:00

I think this is a good opportunity for Icelandic men. A good chance for them to flag the dangerous femcels, snakes and misandrists around them and quietly cut ties with them if feasible. I've done that myself, both for men and women.

Femcel misandric "protests" used to push for further persecution of men and female consolidation of power are often very illuminating about the people around you, like a Black guy being made aware that he's friends with/related to KKK members or a Jewish guy being made aware that he's in the company of Nazis.

Themightysavage · 2023-12-26T20:35:23+00:00

Nice to "get some Shit done" - Savage!

Nobleone11 · 2023-12-26T21:54:17+00:00

And nothing of value was lost nor any occurrences of essential infrastructure breakdowns.

Again, if men pulled a strike action en-masse, these women would be the first to support Back To Work Legislation to maintain said structures.

ERiC_693 · 2023-12-26T21:57:38+00:00

Women have starteto experience a tiny % of what have have been doing through history like in coal mines, construction, railways etc with no medicines, painkillers, time off, workers right etc.

Women now sit on macbook airs with heating, AC, tearooms, annual leave, sick pay, legal maternity leave etc and are STILL oppressed by male privilege. Its a disgrace.

Im bot saying low paid workers need to stfu (nurses, teachers, etc) should be paid more but its not oppression as there's plenty of men in these fields in similar pay and at the bottom (binmen, roadworkers, janitors) of the pay scale even under most women's pay and they never piss when thry should.

zaiguy · 2023-12-26T19:07:56+00:00

And yet Iceland continues to function normally. Now let’s see what happens when all the men go on strike…

General-MacDavis · 2023-12-27T01:17:00+00:00

I didn’t even know there were 100k women in Iceland

PeteyMax · 2023-12-26T16:10:36+00:00

We need to organize this with men to demand some change.

eye_of_gnon · 2023-12-26T12:44:58+00:00

I didn't even know there were that many people in Iceland.

Charming_Adeptness89 · 2023-12-26T16:44:18+00:00

Women in Europe have more gender equality than women in the rest of the world do. I have no idea what they are complaining about.

Potential-Pen874 · 2023-12-31T23:10:22+00:00

That’s crazy if true considering Iceland only has a population of 372,520

2023-12-26T09:01:54+00:00

Will you men please get your act together already and get these women back in line.

bionicmook · 2023-12-26T18:34:07+00:00

I would love a source for that CEO quote. Who said it?

AmuseDeath · 2023-12-26T21:30:57+00:00

Why are there so many mentally ill people around the world...

Fit_Hold7785 · 2023-12-27T05:36:44+00:00

cricket noise

Strigon_7 · 2023-12-26T10:01:43+00:00

I'm not taking my information from Twitter. Gents, I advise you to find some more reputable sources on this event.

Ed_Radley · 2023-12-26T20:59:08+00:00

The only way the wage gap goes away is if women stop having kids and prioritizing time with family over maximizing their income. Otherwise, you will always need to pay a woman more to offset these inevitabilities of reality.

https://apnews.com/article/iceland-women-strike-equal-pay-970669466116a2b1a5673a8737089d46# Quote: “HUSAVIK, Iceland (AP) — Schools, shops, banks and Iceland’s famous swimming pools shut on Tuesday as women in the volcanic island nation — including the prime minister — went on strike to push for an end to unequal pay and gender-based violence.

Icelanders awoke to all-male news teams announcing shutdowns across the country, with public transport delayed, hospitals understaffed and hotel rooms uncleaned. Trade unions, the strike’s main organizers, called on women and nonbinary people to refuse paid and unpaid work, including chores.”

Sorry Rose, this is a time of equality. You sit in the water while I wait on the door for help.

jackmartin088 · 2025-02-28T17:59:00+00:00

Guys any verifiable source for this info?

Mo_93 · 2025-05-08T04:58:37+00:00

101,100 women is the amount of women in Iceland workforce

So basically all the working women in iceland protested, however business was still going and not one noticed = useless workforce

Substantial_Order483 · 2025-10-27T19:24:04+00:00

Apparently it happened again a few days ago...

This has nothing to do with men’s rights for me. This just seems like dunking on women.
