Would you date women who emphasise that they are feminist?

NohoTwoPointOh · 2024-05-21T11:01:11+00:00

Would a chicken go fucking camping with Col. Sanders???

Neko404 · 2024-05-21T14:28:29+00:00

No, she's made it clear she would rather be with a bear so why bother.

devil652_ · 2024-05-21T10:52:01+00:00

Of course not

StripedFalafel · 2024-05-21T11:05:43+00:00

Depends. If I felt like being jailed based on a false rape accusation then, sure.

EricAllonde · 2024-05-21T12:20:50+00:00

Would you date women who emphasise that they are feminist?

My god, what sort of question is this? Why would you date someone who hates you just for being male?

djc_tech · 2024-05-21T13:26:08+00:00

No. They tend to have feminist views when it benefits them but when it comes to paying for dates they won’t or don’t want to.

Ironically the woman I dated who was 17 years young we wasn’t a self identified feminist and she bought dinner for both of us on a few occasions . Ironic how my experience dating feminists was poor but the woman I dated who wasn’t a feminist was more egalitarian as far as relationships are concerned

BravoPUA · 2024-05-21T13:52:42+00:00

Short term- as in them driving to my place, and only hooking up. I did. It was fun at the time. But then wouldn’t even do that anymore. Got sick of proving her wrong. “Women are just as strong and fast as men”. Pull up Olympic records and proved her wrong. Then she talked to her women’s studies professor. “The only reason men have higher records is because they are encouraged to train younger, and women aren’t.”

Pull up examples of women who grew up in families that trained so they got as much of a head start as possible. Proved her wrong.

Last one was she had to interview 5 people about their perspective on feminism. She came over and said I had to be 1 or she didn’t have time that day to come over. I wanted to have fun so…

Later she told me when she read my answer out in class every single girl in there got super angry and wanted to “get him. Who was it!!??”

-she said “I couldn’t bring myself to say it’s the guy I’m dating. “.

Don’t stick your D in crazy.

Feminist nowadays = full crazy.

chobolicious88 · 2024-05-21T11:25:16+00:00

Currently dating one.

Its not working well.

Im not even a traditional guy, but discussions either go like: women must not be shamed , liberation to an absurd extent.

Or its intellectual ways to explain how we are equal and biology doesn’t matter, which i enjoy and try to apply the same logic back to avoid double standards to which i hear “you are just intellectualising” not empathising.

Basically just want to be heard, not listen, doesn’t want to entertain critical thinking while claiming they are smart, and chooses between victim and empowered depending on what benefits her. And enjoys intellectualising to avoid accountability, until met with intellectual challenge, which causes shutdown.

It just feels like a large scale delusion and a lie.

Extreme-Wrongdoer-85 · 2024-05-21T13:16:30+00:00

Probably gonna stop dating women. Would rather die alone, the condition is worsening everyday with even the laws being biased.

Celebration8941 · 2024-05-21T15:40:09+00:00

I'd rather date bears.

sanitaryinspector · 2024-05-21T10:52:34+00:00

I don't even emphasize I'm for men's rights recognition, so I don't like people bragging about siding with any party or movement. I even try to avoid political talking in the flesh

KelVarnsenIII · 2024-05-21T13:46:41+00:00

Nope, because that's their whole ideology and how they define themselves. You'll never be good enough, equal enough, or man enough to give her what she wants and demands, and I guarantee that you won't receive anything from her at all.

Frird2008 · 2024-05-21T11:16:20+00:00

1848-1989? Probably

Hell no, I'd rather become a celibate monk and eat treebark in the mountains for the rest of my days.

Kvltizt · 2024-05-21T13:45:10+00:00

Absolutely not. Self described feminists are already too far gone.

toastytrenton · 2024-05-21T10:38:40+00:00

I wouldn't be involved with proponents of any one-sided activism.

Zimi231 · 2024-05-21T12:09:54+00:00

Absolutely not.

I don't care if they're feminists. As soon as they make it their entire identity I'm out.

Ideologues are a huge turn off.

LordSargasm · 2024-05-21T11:33:10+00:00

Absolutely not. They're too willing to twist the truth for their own gain.

mrkpxx · 2024-05-21T11:34:07+00:00

A feminist is a total red flag.

There are weak men out there however, enough to keep the misandry going for a while.

Sharp_Platform8958 · 2024-05-21T14:47:59+00:00

Any type of identity politics is a massive red flag. Modern feminism is one of the most toxic forms.

Jon2046 · 2024-05-21T16:05:42+00:00

Dated one in the past and she would accuse me of gaslighting her because her and I would remember something different while also constantly talking about her mental health issues, both of which were highly annoying

Flimsy-Rip-5903 · 2024-05-21T16:12:08+00:00

Absolutely never.

CreativeNerd1729 · 2024-05-21T14:47:28+00:00

Hard, left swipe.

A modern day feminist is the equivalent of a German 80+ years ago.

Sooner or later you're going to land up in some version of a concentration camp: emotional/mental torture. 💀

Spiritual-Angle-1224 · 2024-05-21T15:04:23+00:00

Hell no. If a part of the woman’s personality is their negative opinion on men, forget it. I may have lost my attraction of women ever since I went MGTOW, but I don’t go complaining all the time anywhere I go.

lemons7472 · 2024-05-21T15:13:28+00:00

I’m young (20m) I’ve never dated.

But I’ve sworn to myself that I will never date someone who hate me for my sex, that includes feminist.

To me, it’s like dating someone who hates me for my race, will defend hatred of my race, will make up theories of why I’m a barbic lesser molith, will see me as lesser than an animal.

These are things that feminist tend to do all the same towards my sex, and get accepted on for doing.

hasbulla_magomedov · 2024-05-21T16:20:58+00:00

I’d have to say no. Modern feminists want the security and benefits of having a man but want the independence of being single. Worst mindset to have is Privilege without responsibility

Lost-Frosting-3233 · 2024-05-21T13:12:21+00:00

run fast and run far

Lucretius · 2024-05-21T16:40:42+00:00

Look, the first rule of dating is "Don't Date Crazy!" It doesn't matter how hot the crazy is… He or she is not hot enough to make putting up with the crazy worth it!

Not all self identified feminists are crazy. For one thing when you are dealing with self identification you have to acknowledge that words like "feminist" have different meanings for different people. But someone who emphasizes this as a core component of her identity??? Yeah, she's almost certainly wacko. The fact that feminism is the shape of her crazy in no way influences your decision not to touch that. That same woman in a parallel world without feminism would have attached herself to some equally radical cause and been just as undatable. The cause is merely the marker… it's the underlying crazy that is the problem.

Cyberonyx-Obsidian · 2024-05-21T17:00:11+00:00

Nope. You can be strong, independent, and capable. But if you have to CONSTANTLY remind me every minute of every day, you have issues.

Ego73 · 2024-05-21T17:31:45+00:00

I'd rather date a bear. At least it won't press fake rape charges.

Our_media_lies · 2024-05-21T17:37:02+00:00

Date a woman that hates you because you were born a man. NO.

Dreathery · 2024-05-21T20:07:50+00:00

No, that's a red flag.

DrewYetti · 2024-05-21T11:47:21+00:00

Hmmm Nope. Why? Because these feminist they are “strong and independent” and “don’t need a man” but expects men to date them and pay for dates? Ha right.

matt_the_raisin · 2024-05-21T12:05:22+00:00

BIG NOPE.

GodHand7 · 2024-05-21T11:38:08+00:00

There was this far leftist obsessed girl I liked but she had also acknowledged that you can be sexist to men and also that not all women are born angels without sin and that they can be bad people too, so she's not all that bad. I also believe that she's up to debate without saying all the buzzwords. She's also very feminine

Axg165531 · 2024-05-21T12:36:36+00:00

Nope , much less a white feminist. Feminism is just a self destructive ideology disguised as a pro woman movement. Ironically most feminist can tell you what a woman is anymore

TricksterOfFate · 2024-05-21T20:01:51+00:00

That like asking a Jewish woman if she would date a man the identify as a Nazi.

Setari · 2024-05-21T22:45:17+00:00

Nope because that's how you go to prison with false sexual assault charges on your ass

BuyOk5222 · 2024-05-21T23:49:44+00:00

I would rather be in the forest with a bear than be in the same room with a feminist

birl_ds · 2024-05-21T11:13:45+00:00

depends on her definition of feminism

Environmental-Sea123 · 2024-05-21T11:12:42+00:00

I would hear her views and then decide. Even though the hardcore feminists are the most vocal, there are girls out there the consider themselves feminists but are in favour of equality rather than female superiority and actually acknowledge different traits in each gender.

ApprehensiveMail8 · 2024-05-21T12:48:45+00:00

The bigger problem is if they expect you to be a feminist.

It's natural to want to empower yourself, get along with other women, etc.

But if you don't get that your male partner's needs are not met at all by this, that it doesn't reflect reality from our point of view, you will never connect.

liferelationshi · 2024-05-21T13:10:04+00:00

Nope. I swipe left or actually block those profiles on dating apps. If it’s so strong they need to proclaim that on their profile, they’re not an original feminist by definition but the modern toxic kind.

ethanjscott · 2024-05-21T13:17:35+00:00

Honestly no, the one time I did she was a cunt, my fiancé and I haven’t even had a conversation close

StellaMarconi · 2024-05-21T22:05:08+00:00

No, because people (men or women) who emphasise their identity groups like that almost always have that insufferable air of condescension every time they state an opinion.

They'll just be the kind of person to not treat people like actual people, always assuming the worst out of everything and never looking at themselves when a faux pas happens. Better to avoid that wrecking ball entirely.

Twisting_Storm · 2024-05-21T22:47:48+00:00

No way. Feminism is usually synonymous with support for killing unborn babies, not to mention the misandry that often comes with third wave feminism.

Vman2 · 2024-05-22T02:11:26+00:00

What we ought to do is call out feminists and feminism for its pernicious and hypocritical nature. The rest of your comment is the good ole no true Scotsman fallacy. Apparently all the feminists who say, write or advocate anything are somehow not real feminists. The real feminists are apparently slient and invisible. Yeah sure. Heard that one for 30 years now.

WanabeInflatable · 2024-05-21T11:32:38+00:00

Her self identification as a feminist is not a problem. Tradwives are likely to be more inclined to parasitism.

Actually there are two questions/dealbreakers:

Misandry - hating men, ideas of female superiority in moral qualities, also denying misandry or denying significance of impact of misandry.

Acceptance of Double standards. E.g. systemic sexism is one-directional. Her guiding principles should be gender inversion invariant.

If she passes both tests - she can be a good wholesome person.

Slight-Rent-883 · 2024-05-21T12:00:39+00:00

I did once and holy shit, buzz killer 24/7. Like “dude, you do realise back in the 80s there were awesome female characters because they were awesome not because ‘female can’t be at fault’”

Birb7789- · 2024-05-21T13:40:32+00:00

only if its not radical feminist, which is unfortunately like 90% of them nowadays

Sea2Chi · 2024-05-21T15:49:59+00:00

It really depends on what her definition of feminist is.

It's like if someone says they're a patriot. In theory that's good, and there's nothing wrong with loving your country, but that's a word that people can use to provide cover for a lot of horrifying ideas.

527east · 2024-05-21T15:55:30+00:00

Friendly_Might_1348 · 2024-05-21T16:05:25+00:00

Depends. If that's a 'feminist' that in reality just hates men than no. If that's the one I consider adequate (the one who doesn't think men are the problem by definition and therefore doesn't talk smack about men and doesn't generalize men) than yes

DNatz · 2024-05-21T16:18:06+00:00

I would ask "what kind of feminism? The one who consider men and women equals or the misandric type with red mahogany armpit dye?". With the first one I would go to see what's going on and, for the second one, it's a lost case.

pirate694 · 2024-05-21T16:27:46+00:00

No. Thats not a red flag, but a car dealership sized red banner.

Theo446_Z · 2024-05-21T17:25:43+00:00

I wouldn't, neither date a woman that uses terms like Independent, empowered etc. I would clearly say that those things leads to shitty results in a relationship. If she wants to end the date prematurely even better, beacuse she will have to pay the half of that shitty date.

Living_Accountant_67 · 2024-05-21T18:06:27+00:00

Never...they are of the most dangerous species

killaB310 · 2024-05-21T18:10:09+00:00

That would make you a male feminist, by default.

HardAlmond · 2024-05-21T18:14:59+00:00

It depends on what exactly they mean and why. There’s “feminists” that I like and “feminists” that I find terrible.

Acousmetre78 · 2024-05-21T18:22:12+00:00

If they were an old school genuine feminist I would have in the past. My wife got very into third wave feminism and she became quite cruel. Anything I felt was a "stupid male emotion" and my interests and passions became associated with "toxic masculinity." Women could do no wrong. I was molested by a woman and even that wasn't enough to show that women can be evil.

Captainsignificance · 2024-05-21T19:29:17+00:00

ABSOLUTELY NOT - and women know this. That’s why most will claim that they’re not feminists until a guy commits

Street_Conflict_9008 · 2024-05-21T19:54:26+00:00

Yes, instead of going Dutch, they can pay for me. After all they want to break social norms, and anything a man can do a woman can do better.

If they are unwilling to pay for the dates, they are unwilling to break social norms to be strong females!

successiseffort · 2024-05-21T21:16:38+00:00

Every feminist i ever met was 1 orgasm away from becoming a tradwife

Admirable__Panda · 2024-05-21T23:42:12+00:00

Nope. They'll probably spend 90% of the time womansplaining me how women are oppressed and always have been since they felt the need to emphasise that part of themselves.
Says a lot about their personality.

fuglyashell · 2024-05-21T23:48:58+00:00

Fuck no!

DinosBiggestFan · 2024-05-22T00:36:19+00:00

No, because too much of feminism is about supremacy now.

Captain_Pumpkinhead · 2024-05-22T00:45:42+00:00

Of course!

Just because one side is suffering does not mean the other side isn't suffering. We are both suffering in different ways, and we should strive to work together and help each other.

DanzigMisfit · 2024-05-22T01:39:50+00:00

What for? Being in a relationship where you constantly butt heads doesn't work.

GalacticPsychonaught · 2024-05-21T14:10:57+00:00

Nah, I would hit it and quit it, bang and shame. Go along with it and get a video of her consenting to be filmed and for the sex. Right as my load busted I would point it at her face and holler, FOR THE PATRIARCHY!

Then throw her a used cum rag and say get out, I have a patriarchy meeting in 10 minutes with all the top men of the world.

Then wait for her to tell everyone how the patriarchy is real and it busted a load on her face.

SarcasticallyCandour · 2024-05-21T12:24:52+00:00

If she wabts female issues recognised thats ok. But if shd shits all over men abd boys issues shd can fuck right off.

Any gaslighting, "poor menz", "you're mansplaining " etc she can f off.

kingcobra0411 · 2024-05-21T16:21:47+00:00

Feminist - Women should have equal rights

Humanist - All humans should have equal rights

IMO feminist = male chauvinist version of women

Salonimo · 2024-05-21T10:57:15+00:00

Depends, hearing it would make me question what she exactly means by that, I believe there are feminists who actually believe in equality, but it's definitely something you need to understand the deeper sense of

Naraksama · 2024-05-21T13:01:03+00:00

As a feminine man, I like big, strong, independent women who can take care of me, but if they emphasize they are a feminist, they are guaranteed not the type of person I'm searching for, rather they have more mental illnesses than achievements in life.

elebrin · 2024-05-21T15:31:04+00:00

Many people say they are something, but their actions play out very differently. Evaluate their actions.

If a woman claims to be a feminist but in reality is truly honest and loyal and kind to men, then so be it. Words are just words, actions are what matters and some people claim to be something but they are kinda not really in line with what they say they are.

My Mom claimed she was a feminist. What made her a feminist? She wanted to secure Roe v. Wade abortion rights with legislation, she wanted stronger protections for voting rights, she supported more Government support for new mothers (like mandated maternity leave and so on), she wanted better support for single mothers and stay at home mothers and worked within several volunteer networks related to those, she lived through a time period when getting a no-fault divorce was very difficult for a women to accomplish, and stuff like that. Those are Feminist agendas from the 1970s which makes sense given when my Mom grew up and was in her 20s.

She ALSO supported a lot of men's rights related things: she supported ending circumcision in the 90s, she donated money to testicular cancer self-check campaigns, she FORCED my Dad to go get a full medical evaluation yearly and attend the dentist and eye doctor twice a year, she supported his activities within the YMCA (at a time when it was mostly for men still), she supported all his Masonic activities and strongly encouraged him to have time with his friends even though it took him away from the family. She encouraged me to be active in Boy Scouts and take part in traditional "boy" activities.

Depart_Into_Eternity · 2024-05-21T15:56:32+00:00

Married one.

Basically most women who went to college are indoctrinated.

You gotta give em 8 inches of common sense. Changed everything.

saito200 · 2024-05-21T14:47:39+00:00

I would ask her to explain more of what that means to her. And I would keep an eye. But it would make me suspicious..basically I have zero room for bullshit in my life

MedicineRound9130 · 2024-05-21T18:01:49+00:00

depends on your fetishes /j

Blauwpetje · 2024-05-21T18:10:33+00:00

Maybe. Some are just egalitarian and believe a few feminist slogans for lack of information, but wouldn’t sincerely dream of hating men. A friend of mine was like that, she was more than 30 years younger than me but that was a greater obstacle than her opinions.

HansDevX · 2024-05-21T18:39:05+00:00

Never.

TD5991 · 2024-05-21T18:48:29+00:00

No

Been there. I first tried to gaslight myself into accepting the situation, to finally accepting that my place just wasn't there; ofc after a series of arguments

Roamer56 · 2024-05-21T18:50:14+00:00

Fuck no. P&D at best.

WannabeLeagueBowler · 2024-05-21T18:59:59+00:00

It's not an automatic dismissal. A lot of people don't know why they think certain things. Do you really think half the population hates free speech? Or is it just easy to believe that oppressed people need their oppressors to protect them from oppression? Actually that sounds pretty insane. So you know they don't actually believe, intellectually, that free speech is bad. It would be very easy for them to change their minds on a dime as soon as the tide turns. That's how a lot of women are with all of their views.

We think of women as liberal. Politically at least. In the literal sense of the word they are extreme conservatives. But there's a massive political divide between married and unmarried women. It's as big as the black white divide. Except these are the same people, at different stages of their lives. An unmarried women sees the world very differently as soon as she has a family to care for. For men on the other hand there is no divide between married and unmarried. Both of those groups mirror the married women group. Men are abstract and principled, so always thinking in terms of what system will suit a future family they may not have yet. But for the woman it takes a male influence to set her straight. All she has until that point is authority. Media, school, corporations, these are all bad influences.

Salamadierha · 2024-05-21T19:19:47+00:00

No, I prefer someone I can have a conversation with, rather than someone who will shout slogans at me.

skyguard1000 · 2024-05-21T19:35:10+00:00

eli_ashe · 2024-05-21T19:35:16+00:00

yes, tho of course they may not date me;)

little helps heal wounds better than good sex and love. show em what they talkin bout, show em why they wrong af.

blatherskiters · 2024-05-21T19:56:40+00:00

I would ask a lot of follow questions about that. You don’t know if she is even knows what she’s talking about.

GreenZepp · 2024-05-21T20:30:37+00:00

Unequivocally, unabashedly, not under any circumstances would I do that!

Tumahub79 · 2024-05-21T20:46:11+00:00

Absolutely not.

SomeoneRandom007 · 2024-05-21T20:46:55+00:00

No. Absolutely not. I might be friends with them, if they are capable of coherent debate, but not otherwise.

gauntvariable · 2024-05-21T21:41:17+00:00

Dear god no, why would anybody?

dgillz · 2024-05-21T21:50:13+00:00

Nope.

Older edditor here (63). I had one GF I really, really liked way back in 1990. She said she was a feminist. When I pointed out all the things feminists actually stand for (before the internet was much of a thing) I used books and newspaper clippings to point this out. After a couple of months I actually changed her mind.

That said, things did not work long term for other reasons, and I never tried it again.

White_Buffalos · 2024-05-21T21:53:55+00:00

Never.

world_dark_place · 2024-05-21T22:02:08+00:00

Maybe only for sex. Nothing long term.

Comprehensive_Plum34 · 2024-05-21T22:30:40+00:00

F NO

kirewes · 2024-05-21T23:00:16+00:00

Depends on her definition of feminist. Most likely no though.

DonLebanon69 · 2024-05-21T23:36:36+00:00

Bang? Yes. Wifey? No.

Guzkim_Chizax · 2024-05-21T23:40:48+00:00

If they are emphasizing that then it is a core part of their identity and not likely to be subject to change. As such HELL NO. That’s sticking your dick in crazy and that is one good thing the internet taught me not to do.

13donor · 2024-05-22T00:03:06+00:00

abarua01 · 2024-05-22T00:35:07+00:00

2024-05-22T02:24:37+00:00

Depends on what that even means, but I'd find it questionable if that's their most major personality trait. Beliefs that women should be equal to men aren't wrong, but it seems you significantly more often get the bad feminists claiming the label...

RiP_Nd_tear · 2024-05-22T02:28:27+00:00

I'd be cautious, but not outright reject the opportunity.

tosserforfun · 2024-05-22T02:30:34+00:00

I nixed a woman who was wearing a mask in one of her profile photos. Dont need that lecture and dont want to have to lecture. Be a lemming on your own time.

dwyvern8 · 2024-05-22T02:31:49+00:00

Not of the ones I meet in Australia, who all they do is yell and argue about things they know nothing off

Zeroshame14 · 2024-05-22T03:18:50+00:00

If they're an actual feminist and not a female supremacist like so many "feminists" are, then yeah.

NeoNotNeo · 2024-05-22T03:22:42+00:00

I’d rather date a bear

Reven_77 · 2024-05-22T03:27:51+00:00

Personally no, I mean if you are a feminist cool but I don't wanna hear about that stuff all the time.

pacmanwa · 2024-05-22T03:31:14+00:00

Only to see if she would split the bill appropriately.

Sudden_Elephant · 2024-05-22T03:55:25+00:00

If they have to emphasize, they aren't a true feminist.

onnhoj · 2024-05-22T04:44:44+00:00

NO. Now, I have finally made it onto one of those damn lists.

WokeMAGAbothDumbfux · 2024-05-22T04:49:36+00:00

Date no (I don't date mean people but hookup isn't dating)... Misery loves company and they love spread misery

RepeatMyNameBro · 2024-05-22T04:51:17+00:00

Nah, but I would smash and dash

1uno124 · 2024-05-22T05:46:51+00:00

Call me crazy but I don't run towards cancer

rolanddes1 · 2024-05-22T05:58:35+00:00

Back when I was in the dating scene I only had ONS/FWB type of things with them. Though I never voiced my opinions about gender relations. To my experience they tend to be quite the opposite in the sack, compared to what their public persona suggested.

EatM3L053R · 2024-05-22T06:09:08+00:00

Did bears really deserve these women?

Nope

heldrakon · 2024-05-22T06:30:50+00:00

See if what they think of feminism is just misandry in disguise or if they really do care about feminist agendas.

xxTheMagicBulleT · 2024-05-22T06:50:19+00:00

No

It's about respect. They demand all the respect and all the things. Without giving it back.

And the double standards are often crazy. So I don't mess with people who don't invest or add value back and don't have as much respect for me as I have for her.

DaniPratz2000 · 2024-05-22T07:22:47+00:00

BIGGEST RED FLAG OF ALL NO?

Infinite_Procedure98 · 2024-05-22T07:46:56+00:00

It depends what they understand by "feminism". I'd start with that. In real life, I have met lots of women who understand feminism in the good sense: being for equal rights and against violence on women. They are not woke at all, they just stick to the idea of being feminists because if today a woman says the contrary she is shamed at being biggot into traditional roles.
So I would honestly ask her if she is woke or not, and a couple more questions. If she's woke or ever uses vocabulary like "tyrany of patriarchate", "deconstruct toxic masculinity" etc it's bye bye.

Streaker4TheDead · 2024-05-22T08:20:01+00:00

If they weren't too cunt about it and were mainly in it for the equality stuff.

Ok-Cranberry-9558 · 2024-05-22T08:26:41+00:00

Date them for one night. Fill them then forget them.

In the words of Game - that's why I fuck em today and forget em tomorrow'

I_survived_childhood · 2024-05-22T09:56:56+00:00

Yes. Those are the types that have anal sex as a form of birth control.

BuckShadaCaster · 2024-05-22T10:21:23+00:00

DandantheTuanTuan · 2024-05-22T10:41:18+00:00

I'd rather shit in my hands and clap.

oneuglysonovabitch · 2024-05-22T13:13:40+00:00

Yes, i don’t let that sort of thing get in the way of relationships,

My now ex(only separated 48 hours ago) worked for a very politically correct political party in Australia, she was very much a militant feminist, i had no problems with that, she had her grievences , i had mine,

I slowly introduced males issues to her,

I didn’t beat it over her head constantly ,

After about 8 months she told me in a very embarrassed manner that she was ashamed she never considered 50% of the population deserved human rights,

These are all human issues, most people can understand that,

She now stands up for men’s rights.

Low_Car_3415 · 2024-05-22T16:51:45+00:00

she has to change her opinions wether i am in a relationship with her or not.

DeeLowZee · 2024-05-23T01:34:40+00:00

Smash? Yes Date? Hell no.

Pitiful_Row_8253 · 2024-05-23T17:07:31+00:00

Why date someone that hates you?

Fast_Equipment9445 · 2024-05-24T03:05:45+00:00

No most feminist are in someway hatful towards men

Evening-Bus7792 · 2024-05-24T20:26:14+00:00

It would be an immediate and brutal rejection from me.

Kir141 · 2024-05-25T01:34:12+00:00

That would be a complete lack of self-respect, so never.

crabe1 · 2024-05-21T11:21:57+00:00

Yes, but depends on how she treats me and others. Behaviours over words in my humble opinion.

TravelingTrousers · 2024-05-21T12:14:52+00:00

Depends entirely what they mean by "feminist". Just like I have Christian friends and then I have YOU NEED TO FOLLOW JESUS friends. The latter, I stay away from.

There is feminists who focus on gender equity and then there are feminists who just think men are bad and teach their kids that girls rule the world. The latter, I stay away from.

TipiTapi · 2024-05-21T14:44:42+00:00

Yea, of course.

Depends what they mean by it though.

askeetikko · 2024-05-21T15:23:47+00:00

Gonna get downvoted to hell, but I'd answer yes. I know real life feminists, and most are sane and actually good people, who don't hate men. Not saying that extreme man hating nutty feminists don't exist, but they're actually pretty rare outside the shitshow we call the Internet.

SoldierExcelsior · 2024-05-21T16:38:38+00:00

Sure I'm a feminist..I'll date just justvabout any women that puts out at the end of the date.

chetskel · 2024-05-21T11:25:39+00:00

I wouldn’t mind. So long as we share our other views and the feminist isn’t radical.

Icehonesty · 2024-05-21T12:36:47+00:00

Absolutely not.

*disclaimer: unless ridiculously hot

TheGreatLeveler · 2024-05-21T16:11:54+00:00

Sure. Though only casually. You don't want to get seriously involved with a feminist.

randomsantas · 2024-05-21T18:13:39+00:00

I married one, it's ok. like having a mixed religious marriage where one religion hates the other. think Jew/muslim. just don't talk politics. and expect the sex to stop.

Sushiki · 2024-05-21T16:29:48+00:00

I appreciate this thread, it's made me realise people here have gotten a little too bitter and that my views aren't the same and I don't think I want to stay here, in promoting mens rights I want equality of support, fairness and law for all, with an emphasis on bringing awareness to men's issues, thanks to my efforts and people like me there's a legit verifiable increase in support for men who are victims of domestic abuse, something I'm very proud of. We've had a big increase in support in gender specific hostels etc, and some statistics are actually catching up to women's statistics, this is a really healthy thing.

And quite a few feminists were a massive helping part of that, great women who a lot of the people here in this thread are doing an injustice because of some poisoned view they have, they need to step back.

Tho I wonder what have they done for men's rights, outside of with a keyboard online? if nothing, then they have a bigger conversation to have with themselves, because I'll say it right now, they are a part of the problem.

See I always flip the gender roles when considering a question, because I want to be treated how I treat others. That's the ideal right?

So if asked "Would you date a man who emphasises that they are a mens rights advocate?"

We'd all expect a good person to be like "yeah sure, what's wrong with that"

But the view of feminists on this sub is like borderline toxic, you all do realise it's only a specific group of femnists that are the issue, 2nd wave mainly, the one's that only seem like the majority if your only view of feminists are from being eternally online right?

The shit you say is used by those bad 2nd wave feminists to fuel and convince good women via manipulation that men are exactly what you are doing.

So as someone with boots on the ground trying to make real change happen, I'm out of here, and god damn if you can't do it for those trying to make a better world for us, do it for your future kids if you even will have any, because the world i'm creating for the sons and grandsons of the future is a beautiful one, the only shit this thread has done is confirm a hivemind of hatred towards a LITERAL group whose OBJECTIVE definition is in line with what WE ALL WANT, by using a minority within said group and painting the WHOLE GROUP as those bad apples.

Shame on you, everything you hate about "feminists" is exactly reflected in your actions in this thread.

Hell no, I can't fight hate, ignorance and neglect alongside those who can't get their shit together in their head.

bytelover83 · 2024-05-21T14:17:31+00:00

Of course. I’m a feminist myself. I believe in the equal rights of everyone.

kuzism · 2024-05-21T11:51:16+00:00

Yes, because I am a feminine man who likes to be bossed around.

AggroPro · 2024-05-21T18:35:34+00:00

Yes because so am I. But if she's a new wave feminist hell naw. Too insufferable to even be activity partners

Jake0024 · 2024-05-21T19:36:44+00:00

Sure, it's easy.

hohol_biba · 2024-05-21T21:02:18+00:00

I’m in early twenties so my expirience is not that valid for cases when we talk about dating in marriage purposes, but literally 100% of such cases I’ve seen irl been sad for a guy by the conclusion

UPD: Am currently dating with a girl for 5 years and I suppose I’m having even more liberal views that her, and sometimes while we speak I’m the one to tell her about some good points from feminism lol

KintsugiExp · 2024-05-21T22:33:38+00:00

If she’s intelligent and has a firmly founded ethical and just point of view, it would be my privilege to back her up on her stance.

junkeee999 · 2024-05-21T13:31:24+00:00

Of course. That alone is not a deal killer. It depends on the whole person. I suspect many here are envisioning the worst possible image of a ‘feminist’. But that’s not a universal assumption.

thetruth19023 · 2024-05-21T12:47:08+00:00

Absolutely 100% and you should too

I support you having your own money and paying your own bills

I support you having your own house and living in it independently

I support you having a job and not in any way being reliant on me for anything

I support you having your own bank accounts and credit cards And if they bounce or are late it only affecting you

I support you paying for Your share of the dinner bill and I support you paying for your half of the vacation or in a lot of case vacationing independently mean You're not emotionally or finally required to take them with you

I fully support the modern idealism that if either party is unhappy with the relationship at any time In any way whatsoever it can be ended and they can go their separate ways without feeling bad about it

Traditionalism is dead and I 100% support feminism and female independence

"especially female independence from me"

Sushiki · 2024-05-21T13:32:57+00:00

I'd ask them if they were 2nd wave or more traditionally feminist.

If there said 2nd wave I'd get up and leave.

Anyone who fears a true feminist needs to look deeply inwards, those women just wanted or want equal rights, in a way making them also masculinists or whatever the opposite would be, In the sense that if you want equal rights then it works both ways.

The 2nd wave feminists and those influenced by them are the misandrists that we all dislike.

edit: fuck off with the mass downvoting please, you are being as bad as them. Or at least have the balls to point out what you disagree with, more time I spend here the more I'm starting to think that maybe this place isn't about mens rights but about veiled misogyny like holy shit dudes, what's wrong with feminism? the advocacy of women's rights on the basis of the equality of the sexes? nothing.

This is why our rights are held back so hard.
