Do women get shade for coming out against feminism?

Yes it can happen, but there are those of us who don't care either.

Yes, women do. While almost all women advocate for women to have equal rights, protection, and opportunities as men, most women do not associate with the behavior of this fourth wave of feminism. Yes, there are under the table behaviors and actions from men that are egregious and incomprehensible, but it does not mean all men condone that behavior and act in that manner.

At first, I did not believe women were shady about other women not being feminist until I was in grad schools (sheltered myself and was more involved in the books, I am late to the party). When trying to hear out why it is important to be a modern-day feminist, I am entreated to comments such as, "Why not be a feminist?", "If you are not a feminist, you are sexist!" "Men are the scum of the earth, especially white males!" Part of it is because of the experiences they have had. Others wanting to be a part of progressive popular groups, and not having a personal opinion apart from what they heard from speakers and YouTube. (Based on my experiences and encounters.)

I hope this answered your question, without offending anyone. Everyone's experiences and perceptions are different. Let me know your thoughts.

Edited: Sorry for grammatical error.

Yes. In fact, ironically, many of us who are opposed to feminism are also fairly timid. Not in a bad way, we're just less likely to be assertive and aggressive, we tend towards being more agreeable and trying to keep the peace. A lot of us are quite afraid of speaking out in public.

Shamed or shade?

Shamed, yes. Forgot her name, she was the one who produced "the red pill" movie. She didn't even come out against feminism and she got shamed.

But who is doing the shaming? Would you even want their support, now that you know who they are?

Shade? Well, that too. Lots of people who aren't feminists will offer up a little shade for the one who comes out against feminism, because we know it's difficult for a woman to do that. It seems like ALL women are feminists, but as you know, they aren't. It's a gaslighting trick they use.

For example Kelly Anne Conway is a female that managed trumps campaign. They should celebrate her accomplishment. Instead they demonize her
