If this woman doesn't look like she wants to institute totalitarianism I don't know who does! This was also taken right after feminists pulled a fire alarm in an attempt to silence dissent.

Feminism is a ideology not a race. It isn't generalizing to throw people of one ideology together.

A better example would be "Hitler was a white nationalist, shows you the kind of people white nationalists are."

National Socialist... shows you what kind of people socialists are (substitute "progressive" if you want)

Right - because you're the arbiter of what is and what is not feminism - and we should act based on what your (fucked up) definitions are.

No, but unless you can give me examples of feminists flooding campuses to oppose censorship, I suggest you shut up. Because I have already given two examples of feminists flooding college campuses to impose censorship.

I'm in a movement? Shit. That's cool. I guess. So where are we going?

To the restroom/W.C. right? At least that's my destination when having a movement.

Ordinarily, this is where I'd insult your intelligence and reasoning as well as make snarky comments about unintentional irony, but I'm in a charitable mood - so I'll just let your statements in this thread speak for themselves.

RE: Just why, bitch?
I think a big issue here is the ambiguity of the definition of feminism. I do not really think those loud mouth tumblr types attempting to censor any disagreement to theirs should be called feminists because they seem to do more harm then good. It seems to make of difficult for people who want to do legitimate work that needs to be done to be taken ad seriously as they otherwise would be
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Yes, they have them. They just need to pretend they don't to fuel their victim complexes.

If I recall correctly the meeting they pull the alarm on was being held by a group called the Canadian association for equality and they were talking about prostate cancer

Not entirely Marx. There are ways in which women have more rights then men and ways in which men have have more rights then women and it is not a cut and dry issue.

I think that the people on this forum that call themselves feminists and others like them (more moderate, non-radical feminists) should really consider a name change, for a few reasons. First, I've seen the topic of feminism come up quite a few times on this forum and we keep on having this argument about who are the real feminists every single time. I think these moderate feminists have to accept the fact that some crazy people have stolen the label 'feminist' for themselves and to the common person it is associated more with radical feminism.

Second, if feminism is supposed to be about the equality of men and women, why call it feminism? That is honestly what makes me somewhat skeptical. It's like if I said I'm for racial equality, but you can call me a caucasianist.

Third, feminists have told me that mens views are considered. But yet have somehow not considered that many men don't want to be called a feminist. Not even because of the radical feminist association or that they disagree with the views, but because of the desire to retain their masculinity. It's the same reason a lot of men don't wear pink.

Pick a new name, you'll get more men.
