I am not denying that women are not raped or treated badly in first world countries, I am was just making the point that these feminists (or at least the once i have been exposed to) are more interested in a war on language and being polictically correct than talking about ACTUAL opression of women. And for the record, men are actually raped far more than women. Why isn't anyone talking about that? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_by_gender http://www.amren.com/news/2013/10/more-m...ts-reveal/
For one, I don't see anybody, feminist or not, asserting that rape of anybody, or oppression of foreign women, is a good thing, so it's an irrelevant quibble you're making here. It's like... do you see an organization attempting to cure skin cancer, and then get mad at them because they're not trying to cure colon cancer? Or are you able to recognize, in every other part of your life, that groups of people are able to care about more than one thing at a time, and that a focus on one issue does not indicate a lack of care about others, nor must we only focus on the worst problems first?
We're all able to recognize the value of specialization and focus, why the fuck do we always have people scrabbling to dismiss the importance of that when it comes to feminism?
