A bikini-clad celebration of weakness (Beach Body/Protein World Protest)

A refreshing attitude by the author and yup, depressing:

This is what contemporary feminism looks like: a pathetic but dangerous gaggle of self-proclaimed victims of patriarchy who want a state-sanitised world, free of offence and confrontation. There was absolutely nothing offensive or even controversial about the Protein World ads, and the majority of the girls I met at the protest were there for a photoshoot and nothing much else. The other attendees consisted of the usual roll-up-smoking, fight-the-patriarchy stereotypes who follow controversy around like a bad smell. The talk was of nice feelings, brave faces and the overcoming of faux-personal battles. The fact that, by proclaiming themselves hurt and incapable, these women were relinquishing their own sense of agency didn’t seem to bother the protesters. This celebration of weakness is the garb of contemporary feminism. Dressing it up in a fancy bikini doesn’t make it any less pitiful.

Wow, 40 of them. How many women in the UK? At least 20 million? Thank you, feminist weasels, for showing the world just how small a minority you really are.

Brilliantly written article. It points out the absolute ludicrous nature of the modern "feminist movement".

Its like these women just hate ANYONE who is different in any way. Like if you aren't the average woman in every way (who should be put on a pedestal anyways) then you are supporting a "misogynistic culture". If you want to exercise and look good, you're shitty and supporting male dominated culture. Its so ludicrous.
