"No one is forcing your daughters to play sports." What the fuck kind of reply is that? You can apply that to anything. No one is forcing women to be in the public eye, to get a job, to be independent, to leave an abusive relationship. Women do it because it's good for us. No one wants women to do what's good for ourselves.

"TERF"

"Conservative"

Pick one. You can't be a feminist if you are conservative and hate women.

Conservative women can be feminists. Not radfems but their own brand of feminists as in women's rights activists for the rights they choose to fight for.

After watching the Hulu miniseries "Mrs. America", I realized conservative women's groups were feminists against second-wave feminists.

The conservative feminist Cate Blanchett played, Phyllis Schlafly, sounded a lot like the radfems I've argued with about marriage and motherhood. Marrying men and having children are conservative choices, imo. Why would true radfems give birth to new victims of misogyny?

Lesbianism is not a choice, lol.

Celibacy is a choice though. No one has to date/mate/procreate. Those are choices. And billions of women have made the wrong choices by being intimate to with men.

People who support white male supremacist cannot be feminist no matter how many mental gymnastics you perform.
