GC radical feminism is the only real feminism.

I'll take any feminism based on facts over feels whether they are rad fem or not. Class analysis isn't the only way to look at problems.

No thot feminism is the real deal

I'm moderate GC, but I consider myself more of a gender abolitionist.

Sex is biology. Gender is a social construct. I don't believe women can opt out of being female, but I can understand why they'd want to. I've considered transition myself because I hate being a woman in this society. It was coming across gender critical feminism that made me realize being female is a neutral biological trait. Femaleness doesn't equal femininity. I can be the toughest, most masculine, most butch woman on earth, and I'm just as much a woman as any other. It's not a club that I have to qualify for by performing socially-approved behaviors. It's not about the way I feel. It's about the way I was born.

I love how all the men and their pickme handmaidens vocally redefined feminism to have no teeth, and make it indistinguishable from the usual male-pandering behavior. I understand the desire and need to live an easier life but nonGC feminists are not my ideological peers; however,they are women and I will fight for them, even if they never decide to abandon pleasing the menfolk.

All feminists are brainwashed idiots. They just become more unhinged with every wave.

[–]SnowAssMan 5 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 0 fun6 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

Feminism is a method of analysis. Traditionalists & status quo warriors are brainwashed idiots, which is exactly why they think anyone questioning our culture's androcentric norms is "idiotic".

Feminism kills innocent girls!

Anti-feminism does that. The biggest terrorist attacks in Canada & Norway were carried out by anti-feminists.

Come, let us solve the eternal female question together

OK, MRA failure.

Heterosexual male checking in. I think anyone and everyone is entitled to their own beliefs. Belief is freedom, and we all deserve our own freedom in order to determine our respective reality. The catch is, your freedom ends, where mine begins. If we can agree on that, then we will never have any problems.

That said, my opinion is, you are born either a man or a woman. Medical science can blur that line, but it can't change that fact. Anyone who disagrees is free to, and I bear them no ill will. Just don't try to push that ideology on my kin, is all I ask.

[–]yishengqingwa666 4 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 2 fun -  (9 children)

Oh, they will, though.

They will push and push.

We home school our children. Not happening.

[–]jet199 4 insightful - 3 fun4 insightful - 2 fun5 insightful - 3 fun -  (1 child)

One effect of covid is going to be a lot more parents home schooling. That's part of the new normal and the trans cult is a big push factor too.

We started home schooling when they rolled out Common Core in our state, but I agree, and it's a good thing.

You can’t control everything. This is the world they’re a part of now.

[–]JeanValjean 4 insightful - 3 fun4 insightful - 2 fun5 insightful - 3 fun -  (4 children)

No one can control everything, but I can control what they are exposed to, until a time when they are ready to sort through things on their own. Who determines when that time is you ask? Me.

[–]radarladal 4 insightful - 3 fun4 insightful - 2 fun5 insightful - 3 fun -  (1 child)

That’s an illusion of the level of control you have over what your kids are exposed to. Don’t get me wrong, I hope it works out, I just have seen many parents make the same mistake and that level of attempt for completely control over the influences of children are successful, in the short term, but not forever.

Without cable tv to deal with you'd be surprised.

That's not the goal. The goal is to introduce reality at increments commensurate with their ability to understand it and adjust for it.

tl;dr: Parental Guidance is suggested

Good luck with that, this shit is pervasive.

The only way to stand up to the onslaught is to stand up to it.

No one can identify out of sex and gender-based oppression.

What climate? Do you mean standard behaviour before an election in the USA? Just vote for your puppet of choice and stop the drama.
