I would just add that a huge part of the power women hold in the socialization of men resides in shaming language. Most men are sensitive to being shamed by women (perhaps because we fear being ostrasized by women), so any single accusation (eg sexsim, misogyny, rapist) is exploited to the fullest as it makes for simple shutting down of male thought and can drive men to strive to sacrifice of themselves in effort to regain less shameful status in the eyes of women.

This is why it's so important for feminists to control the narrative about human history and gender roles. As long as they can convince us that men have been putting women down for ages (shocker: it's not even remotely true) society at large will feel the need to make up for those injustices (which rarely if ever existed in reality). This is why terms like "mansplaining" were invented: to silence men from discussion about the state of gender roles.

Feminism really is just female chauvinism and manipulative behavior legitimized as a political movement. This is why, to us, it is so clear that it's goals have absolutely nothing to do with the definition put next to the word in the dictionary.

Having read far too much of feminist theories and academic texts I can assure you 99% of the "science" behind feminism is simply projection of female psychology on to cherry picked male behaviors.

I'm convinced that this is true. Many feminists like to assume that the whateverTheFuck % of CEOs that are men use that power for the benefit of other men, because that's exactly what they would do for women, given that power. Same with government office, and pretty much anything with a potential for an apex fallacy.

They see a war of the genders and the massive potential for exploitation, and simply assume that it's happening, because in their world of total war, it would be an obvious decision to use whatever power they can get.

It has been shown repeatedly that women have a massive in-group bias that men simply don't have. Women will blatantly favor other women for no reason other than 'vagina power'. Men have no such bias, and some studies even show an anti-male bias. I like to describe this finding as the "idgaf about other men, but Jerry is my bro!" mentality contrasted with "women everywhere are oppressed and we need to band together... except Susan, fuck that bitch."

Indeed, women think that men talk about women the same way certain women talk about men.

Women of the same race, class and creed ARE tighter with each other than men of the same race, class and creed are.

Ftfy. If you're going to talk about women's overblown in-group bias you can't stop at their sexism. Men's social groups are much more heterogeneous. Women tend to be far more prejudiced, surrounding themselves with sameness and fearing difference.

I've had fun in the past with feminist women who spout off their rhetoric with total abandonment. I'll often listen to them, then when the chance is right, I'll say something like, "Gee, you're actually not as bad as 'insert name of other feminist' says you are." Then I walk away. Nothing triggers a feminist woman more than the thought that another feminist/woman has bagged her out. And since their default reaction to somebody being accused of something bad is to automatically assume that it is true and the accused is guilty, the drama that inevitably follows is most entertaining.
