Feminist activist women are masculinized in terms of digit-ratio and social dominance: a possible explanation for the feminist paradox

Let's try and view this charitably;

While I agree with most here that feminism is a crock of shit, we should probably acknowledge that the reasons women would be attracted to it is experiencing some form of sexist treatment, or perceived sexist treatment, and are then sold the snake oil solution feminist ideology offers that doesn't actually provide solutions to their problems, and in many cases prevents solutions being found.

If we accept Nature has a greater than zero effect in terms of level of masculinity or femininity someone displays as the digit study suggests, it isn't surprising that more masculine women would experience more sexism than feminine ones, even if that sexism may or may not be as dire as what men experience. (Included this to avoid that argument.)

Thus, the type of woman who would be targeted and susceptible to the hate group are naturally going to be like this.

It's about as surprising as looking at any hate group and noting the rank and file are impoverished or have some past trauma that the group "Helped" them with.

Interesting article (with confusing name), thanks for sharing.

The digit-ratio thing blows my mind. I remember reading somewhere that it can also predict (albeit with rather low accuracy) homosexuality in men. Such a random detail in the human body being able to tell us so much is fascinating to me.

So basically - Feminism is the product Nature and Not Nurture which blows all feminist Praxis out of the water.

/u/girlwriteswhat, how do you reckon your hands would rate in this survey? Mine are pretty masculine by their definition.
