Modern feminism is a disappointment

It's not just modern feminists:

A list about feminism misandry for anyone who thinks that feminism fights for men’s rights, for anyone who thinks that feminism was only a sexist movement starting from the third wave and for anyone who accuse the MRM of being a sexist movement, while still defending feminism.

And it's not just "disappointment".

Feminists have worked for over a century to enact laws and policies that exploit men for unending privileges for women.

The "ick" trend is the biggest and most obvious form of women promoting "toxic masculinity" I have ever seen. It is so embarrassingly obvious and it is insane to me people just glossed over it like it was some harmless unsexist joke.

Modern Feminism is a disease.

The funniest thing to me about feminism in context of dating, is that women are literally selectors. You have no idea how many dudes my age(25) I know who are perpetually single with no dating prospects in sight. The reason is almost always looks. I have never in my life seen a dude who is athletic, lean and muscular, who has a good face, who is 6ft2 and above that has issues with women, no matter how he behaves (although he needs to have combination of these things). Its insane. I am also in Europe, so here people are even more shallow. You would think that feminism would help women spot abusers and trash men, yet as long as the dude is good looking, all is forgiven. Its pathetic. Feminism will never be taken seriously by men because its not a movement, its a religion.

Wear the moniker "pick me girl" as a badge of honor. Feminists hurl insults when people say things that goes against their narrative, so it just means that they consider the things you say to be threatening and feel that they have to attack your character.

I honestly consider feminism to be a hate-movement. It's not about building anything, it's about tearing things down, rationalizing hate, and garner privileges for a select few.

It's nice to see a woman that gets it though.

Women say men are overly angry and aggressive.

I would say that certain women at least, are just as angry and aggressive as the men they criticize. I don't think having poor emotional regulation is an inherently gendered trait. Often, it's just the result of unresolved trauma, or a fucked up childhood. I remember reading a post here a while back, sharing a study which concluded that there are more male victims of domestic violence than female victims. As in... women get physically violent with their partners more often. Some men still abuse their partners, but they definitely don't have a monopoly on anger and violence.

I used to think of myself as a male feminist, because I believe in equality of opportunity for all sexes. But I'm pretty sure women have that now. In some places things are even starting to swing in the opposite direction. It's hard for me to even understand what modern feminists are even fighting for.

Bringing down the straight white patriarchy? I'm straight and white, but I must have failed to get my patriarchy card in the mail, because I wasn't invited to any of these secret "plot to oppress women" meetings. And where can I redeem all this male privilige I have? Do I get a discount on cigars and oil baron cowboy hats?

There was a time when there were significant, and obvious barriers to female success... specific concrete things they could point to that needed to change to create a fair and just society, but this new generation of feminism doesn't seem to have any real casus belli, aside from the abortion issue (which I sort of take their side on). Instead, it just seems like women are attacking men because they're men, or because they're not happy and need someone to blame for that, or even just because oppressed minority groups get sympathy and attention, and they want a slice of that sweet, sweet, validation.

Obligatory "Modern feminism is not different. Feminism has always been an ideology of hatred and bigotry."

"modern"

That's cute, they're all shit. Always been about supremacy. Always has been.

It’s particularly bad in the early school system as well. The amount of times my parents were told by female teachers that I was on the autistic spectrum in primary (elementary) school was ridiculous - for innocuous reasons like talking too much, occasionally talking over the teacher, questioning the teacher, etc. Literally stuff that EVERY growing boy does.

Little boys are naturally not as agreeable as little girls, and will be more boisterous early on. It’s just a thing. Luckily my mum had the sense to realise that the female teacher (no kids) was probably wrong.

The icing on the cake for me was when one of my friends asked, “Miss, why do you not let boys fill out the class register for everyone?”. The teacher then replied,

“Because boys cannot multi-task like girls can”.

DoctorStorm · 2023-10-11T02:36:49+00:00

Oh fuck these women.

Stop dating them, stop simping for them, stop marrying them.

And stop thinking you're an uncle: you're roaming free daycare that alters as an ATM during holidays.

And stop thinking you're a positive male influence: you're a potential target they'll sacrifice at the alter the second they need to do so in order to <insert reasons>.

Fucking walk away already. Walk.

Walk away from western women, walk away from bad families, walk away from relationships where even your worth as a provider is "I mean alright I guess I am strong and independent I didn't need the help."

Fuck the Titanic.

Start swimming, goddamnit.

Feminism has always been anti-male. For one thing it’s going to disproportionately attract women who just hate men. Just as the MRM (and this sub) are going to disproportionately attract guys who been smashed in unjust divorces or various other discriminatory laws/policies (often times people don’t realise how bad things are now until it happens to them or people they know well).

In the past women did have fewer rights specifically because they were female (Coverture and voting rights), or society expected married women to leave the workforce when they had kids - not such a bad thing in the ‘50’s and ‘60’s when most families could live off one income, and most people didn’t have “rewarding careers”. So back then there were enough issues for feminism to focus on that it was possible to dismiss the man hate as a few unrepresentative extremists, or just some boiling resentment. But we’ve had decades of affirmative action, pro-women education and hiring policies, and women being well represented (if not yet a majority necessarily) in all major professions and high status positions. Yet feminism simply doubles down. No “jobs done” or “we’re nearly there, we can tone it down a bit”. Instead they just openly denigrate merely being male, and complain about everything that is more than 50% male whilst being silent about women having more of anything (except housework of course).

It exposes feminism for what it really is: an anti-male, female supremacist movement that masqueraded as an equality movement.

If modern feminism were really into women's rights, they would priorize the situation of women in countries such as Afghanistan or Saudi Arabia. Instead, their fight is to gaslight men from western countries and "deconstruct" them - men that often are totally reasonable and don't hate anyone.

I would ask myself if maybe I'm not wrong, but there are so much sensate women who told me that they are dishearted by "this kind" of feminism, that I think I am right.

An hour old account. With only this post.

The title of your post says it’s a disappointment. I think it’s an understatement. Feminism is antithetical to society itself. It is its undoing. The aggressive attacks on family and conservative values, tradition, and heritage as well as brain washing women and denigrating innocent men sets up future where the culture of a country simply ceases to continue. Young men and women don’t date. They don’t have sex. They will not form relationships. They will not form families. There will be no Christmas presents for the kids because there will be no kids. Feminists’ agenda is causally responsible.

Trans are grooming and butchering what kids are left. And trans are allowed to do that because of inclusion. Inclusion is even a thing because we must change the fabric of society by taking down the “patriarchy.” There are larger forces entangled in this, but feminism is in my opinion the leading one. I hope this pathological anti-human trend can be reversed, but I am quite skeptical.

The problem with the "ick", as much as I hate it, is that it perfectly describes how women operate. If you do one thing wrong as a man you instantly repel a woman and she will never talk to you again. You even disgust her. Women are so sensitive and unpredictable it's very hard to maintain a relationship with them.

BigBrilla · 2023-10-11T09:43:35+00:00

It’s a sickness tbh.

Somehow; going to the club every weekend, having an OF (being a sex worker), having sex all the time, attempting to live a masculine life whilst rejecting your own femininity, is empowering?🤔

Men communicate much better than women. I don't know where this confusion came from.

Scrap the "modern"

Theweirdfemme · 2024-03-09T14:51:12+00:00

As a woman who’s a feminist(not the modern girl boss feminist one)but mostly an equalist, this is exactly how i feel about modern feminism nowadays, and i wholeheartedly agree. And it has especially affected movie companies like Disney, marvel, and Hollywood in general, i can’t stand it! I can’t stand the hypocrisy of modern feminism telling that they believe in gender equality, but only talks about women’s problems and issues! I can’t stand sexism against men, and women!

Why can’t we all follow Fred Roger’s advice on treating your neighbors as yourself regardless of what gender you are, what race you are, or anything?

> Any man who has emotional outbursts has a reason

Just stop the sentence right there.

No. There's no excuse for anyone to have emotional outbursts unless every last social opportunity has been expended, and even then, only after you've attempted to leave the area where the issue is occurring. Unless it takes place in your home, you're responsible for being calm and/or removing yourself from the situation.
