Respect: Intelligent feminist agrees that men have a right to "expresses an opinion" and criticizes her authoritarian sisters saying "Illiberal Feminism Is Running Amok"

Funny I was just banned from /Feminism because I had an opinion that differed from what most feminists wanted to hear. It is sad really.

Neat. A humane person who can hopefully axe some of the toxicity from within. Now if you could only clone yourself so we can get this in wide-scale for the better of humankind.

Shes pointing out a few of the many problems with feminism. Good for her. What are her views on gender because it still doesnt help with the unrealistic ideas feminism has about gender.

I don't get why anyone with even a remotely fair assessment of gender relations would want to identify as a feminist. It's not like feminists are these nice reasonable people and there are just few bad apples ruining their good name. Those misandric and mean spirited bitches are most of the feminists. At least they are the ones with political power who get shit done. And that shit is really bad. There might be some feminists who are "not like that", but they sit on the sidelines while the feminists that are like that keep legislating their hate. So that's why I don't get why any reasonable person would want to identify as a feminist. It's like a guy joining the KKK and complaining that everyone thinks KKK is racist. "No KKK is really about equality between the races. There are just few bad racists who tarnish our good name."

Then why call her a "feminist"? She's just a women's rights activist or a normal person.

Modern feminism is not about politics and goals but just an excuse for emotions gone wild. They do not want to reach any goals, doing so would mean the ride on the feels train is over.

This is the equivalent of "Intelligent racist agrees that [X Race] has a right to express an opinion".

Not intelligent enough to ditch the whole bigoted notion.

Yet, in her 2011 Elle piece titled “The Best and the Rightest,” writer Nina Burleigh described conservative women who were on the rise as, “right-wing girl Millennials” who were following “in the high heels of the former governor of Alaska.” One woman, she wrote, moved “from chair to podium with the lithe, twitchy ease of a big cat, hazel-eyed and trailing a honey-colored mane, all 20 tawny years of her packed into a skintight electric blue stretch-satin cocktail dress.” Another woman was described as, “A curvaceous, dark-haired 25-year-old . . . [with] a diamond-studded cross dangling above very visible cleavage.”

So someone decided to slag off conservative women by describing them as sexually attractive?

What, did they think people would support them less if they were hot?

They're fascists.
