Stumbled upon some "Feminist" scientific studies published in "Women's Psychology" journals, claiming that women experience PTSD from everyday "Sexism". They even promote such narrative on the "Feminist" subreddit as well, could somebody such assertions?

I feel like the meaning of certain terms like trauma and PTSD have been lost. Everyone not bowing down to you is not PTSD.

In the grievances study, someone took passages from Mein Kampf, and switched up the antisemitic messages for feminist messages, and got their paper to be published in feminist per-reviewed literature. Not even joking.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grievance_studies_affair

Feminist peer reviewed literature is about as scientifically rigorous as young earth creationism science or flat earth society peer review.

Anyone can start a peer reviewed on any subject they want.

The sign if a good science is that it actually makes good predictions, is self correcting, and matches well across disciplines and adds to the collective pool of true knowledge.

Feminist peer review isreinforcing itself into its ever-more-irrelevant progress by making no testable predictions, stifles criticism and is unable to reflect on its past mistakes, sticks to its own little echo chamber divorced from everything else and divorcing further and further from reality, rarely interacts with anything outside of feminism. and deconstruct knowledge rather than adding to it.

So much if it is bullshit from A to Z that desperately tries to paint women as ever more oppressed victims, regardless of the truth of it.

If women have PTSD from sexism, then either its from severe sexism that is radically different from common sexism, or men get PTSD from sexism against them tkk, or women are so pathetically weak that they can't take the slightest hint of anything going against them without getting PTSD from it.

Those are the three options, but watch them try and fall over themselves to argue for whatever benefits them at the moment, even if its the complete opposite of what they'll argue for a week later.

You're better off ignoring and dismissing those, you can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into, especially not feminists.

Feminists label most things they disagree with as "sexist." If you're a male and say that you dislike their fashion style or favorite color, they might call you sexist.

Honestly, it wouldn't surprise me that some women actually do have PTSD from "everyday sexism". Severe stress can lead to PTSD, i believe everyone can get behind that statement. And i do believe that some women may experience stress because of perceived sexism. There is really no need for this to be actual real sexism, they only need to perceive it as such. As some women perceive everything as being sexist, i'm sure they can give themselves PTSD with such an attitude to life.

It is the narrative of 'men bad' that gives them PTSD, not the actual men.

Men: "women are the weaker sex"

Women: "we have PTSD now!!"

Men: "...."

Women experience PTSD from waking up in the morning.

If my dad is reminded about the Vietnam war, either through TV, radio, a conversation or whatever, he won’t be able to sleep that night. Other nights he has nightmares about it. And he didn’t volunteer, he was drafted and forced to go there.

But 1st world barely noticeable or non-existent sexism should be our biggest concern.

The great thing about “feminist science” is that the label lets us know it’s very different from real science.

Just a bunch of stupid twats mad at the world

maybe they do experience PTSD everyday, doesn't matter if they do or not all that matters is some physician or scientist (who aren't treated as human beings but as gods/popes who can never be wrong about anything unless they say so) says it to be so and bam its true because what they say is fact simply because.

PTSD requires a criterion A type event for diagnosis.

According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5), Criterion A events involve:

Actual or threatened death: This includes events like serious accidents, violent assaults, combat situations, or life-threatening illnesses.
Serious injury: This encompasses physical injuries that require extensive medical treatment or result in significant impairment.
Sexual violence: This includes any act of sexual nature that is perpetrated against a person's will, including rape, sexual assault, and sexual abuse.

So basically you cant have PTSD unless youv been exposd to death, injury, or sexual violence

well obviously they want to move the goal posts so that cat calling can cause PTSD.

then come the lawsuits.

my boss called me honey, I hav pTSD, pay up
