I think somewhere between #believeallwomen (including the psycho ex who falsely accuses all her exboyfriends,) and the multiple articles on sexist air conditioning, the final feminist straw snapped inside of me.

Man you're all over the place please try rephrasing it
[–]Egalitarianwhistle17 points18 points19 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Sometime in the last year, between losing all of my friends because they now "believewomen" (even if said woman is a longtime, demonstrable, pathological liar,), and reading buzzfeed articles in which women complain that they live in a patriarchy because the airconditioning in their office building is 1.3 degrees suboptimal for the the female body...
I gave up on feminism. I turned my back to it. I became antifeminist.

No youre not right because you explained it in a way that hurts there feelings which we cant do in conversation even though we're supposed to be equal which we arent because- no not in a bad way- no i didn't mean it like- you know what i meant. Youre right, im sorry im a trash piece of shit man. Or something lile that idk
Will say not all feminsts are like this though

Feminism is a jealousy of men and their accomplishments. That’s it. Women wish that their gender contributed even a fraction of what men have to society.
[–]mangogreenbean0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Why couldn’t women contribute to the society we have today?

I’m talking about the comment in the post

True feminism is for equal rights
What you said here isn’t feminism, it’s just hating men disguised as feminism
[–]polemous_asteri6 points7 points8 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
True. You are correct of course.
However this argument has always seemed weak to me. It reminds me when people say true socialism has never been tried. They are technically correct but it serves no purpose in furthering the discussion.
Countries that do try to do true socialism typically end up like Venezuela and people who are feminists tend to ignore men’s issues because women’s issues are more important to them.

Right? There isn’t one type of feminist. There are legitimate feminists who truly want equality where they see inequality. Then there are others
[–]polemous_asteri1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
Why not call it something else than? The name is inherently unequal. How could the movement become anything else?
[–]--who2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
It isn’t inherently unequal, because like I said there are feminists who want equality where they see inequality.
These feminists want to bring women up from lower status. For example, women weren’t always allowed to vote, but feminists changed that.
But then there are the feminists you’re probably thinking of, that are wanting to bring women up from equal status. They want to bring women above men.
And then there are feminists that aren’t really feminists and just like to justify their petty behavior.
There’s a reason I just said “Then there are others” lol. I can’t judge every self proclaimed feminist and their true motives
[–]polemous_asteri2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Oh I’m aware that not all “feminists” act like that. I’m also aware that is not the intent of the original movement.
I’m just not understanding why people like yourself would want to cling to that name even though that’s not what the movement stands for anymore even if the movement claims it is?
To me people need to learn to let movements die because what typically ends up happening is a good movement like OG feminism ends up being associated with crazies like the ones most people think of now.
It seems to me it would be better to have ended feminism once women got the right to vote/ability to do things outside the house. And now your movement should be called something inclusive since you care about both sexes.
This girl explains why she doesn’t call herself a feminist anymore super well at the end.

I’m not really sure why I still use the word “feminist” honestly. It’s just easier to use lol
I agree with you, I don’t think there’s much more equality for women to fight for. I know that feminists have conquered the most unequal bits of life, which is why I find it easy to dismiss them today. But I’ll happily be convinced otherwise if an inequality was presented to me. I don’t doubt that there’s still areas of our society where women are unequal, at least in America, where I live.
On a related note, I like the idea of ditching labels like “feminist”. There’s so many varied stances on any given issue, whether it be sex inequality or not, that labels aren’t useful and seem to just make people pointlessly heated.
[–]polemous_asteri0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Nice I agree with you and yeah I totally get the easier thing! Thanks for discussing with me. Normally I just get a heated response when I ask.
[–]Jakeybaby1250 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Feminism is not about equality. In order to be a movement for equality, you need to focus on the issues affecting both men and women. Feminism only focuses on the issues affecting women and ignores, if not aggravates, issues affecting men hence why it's not a movement for equality. Feminism is not for men and doesn't care about men.

Where did you post that tho?
[–]armandasdino[S] 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
It was a comment
And I don't remember
80% of all people that use Reddit are male. so yes why are you doing me
[–]SodiumChloryde0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Feminism isn’t bringing women up to a mans level, it’s bring down all me to their level.
[–]KOMRADE_DIMITRI-1 points0 points1 point 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
why are you booing me
Idk, maybe because you're directly insulting them.
[–]butt-sniffler-1 points0 points1 point 3 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
Imagine being THIS delusional and even thinking that you're right...get the fuck out
[–]armandasdino[S] -1 points0 points1 point 3 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Did you know that women rights activists exist equality activists and all other different types of activists that are actually fighting for rights and ur here defending feminists.
feminists only complain about men (oh my god they are afraid of a period blood) or (we only get 75% of what men get) or something like that and half of it not even true.
Ps it's not true that women get 75% for the same job the 15 to 20% decrease is because men work harder in the exact same job
[–]butt-sniffler0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Surprise, I'm a feminist and I don't believe in the pay gap and I believe that men have equally bad problems. Surprise. Let that sink in and have a break to process all that
Ok. I'll make sure to add that to the tally Mark 135 of idiotic feminists that think they are smart.
also from the first time you spoke on this comment thread I had a suspicion that you're a feminine so you're not surprising me at all
[–]notmyacc_imjustdumb-1 points0 points1 point 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
feminists are good
they are fighting for equal rights
this subreddit is for those bitches who take it too far, to the point where it's no longer equality
