I'm fine with feminists, I even support them at times however I can. But misandrists who call themselves feminists should really read a book (not some bullshit by Valerie Solanas), because their stupidity is becoming unbearable.
Depends really. I think a feminist in a first world country will likely state false facts and try to change things which won’t make any impact on women’s lives in real (like going out with grown body hair and the fat acceptance movement) instead, they can try helping countries where many women are actually getting abused purely because of their gender. They should be the voices of those women instead of focusing too much on society and their beauty standards.
Also women in germany are not allowed to sterilize themself till the age of 35+ and when they have kids, rapists only get 1-2 years jail time, in some states of america abortion will be not allowed, in general many women are treated like an animal when they give birth at hospitals, according to many women they get disrespected, get insulted, get touched without their consent, etc. while giving birth. Just becsuse you have it better here, does not mean women does not have serious problems.
Nothing wrong with it! Im just saying 3rd world countries have much bigger issues than women having to shave. I didn't see anybody getting punished because they went out hairy but i have seen women get punished because they refused to wear certain stuff. Nobody cares if you shave or not, will majority think it’s gross? Probably. But i doubt you can force people to think its hygienic and attractive. I completely understand your points in second paragraph tho. But honestly majority of western feminists i see don’t mention these topics. Instead, they mention things like wage gaps and beauty standards. It’s a shame that women al over the world go through difficulties because of their gender but i also still think feminists from the west can be a helping hand to women who have it much worse.
I get your points but not shaving your bodyhair is not an unserious issue. Hairy Girls get bullied for havin bodyhair and bodyhair is not unhygienic at all. Yes, women should be supported in third world but still there are still problems women faced which should be avoided
I can only laugh at women who say they don't like feminists. Until society tells you to shut your mouth, shut your legs and learn your place. Then you start throwing such temper tantrums that I cannot distinguish between standard issue feminists and self-proclaimed anti-feminist women.
Feminist is wayyyy to broad to describe anyone at this point. It was once a title that meant something, but people would cling onto it in order to push their beliefs as a vaillant cause.
I think the problem is some people who call themselves feminists are really no more than man haters. But there are feminists around that just want equality
They were a movement of misandrist prostitutes that inevitably failed when MGTOW and Incels became a thing to counter their movement, and now the movement is dead and gone.
Depends on what kind of feminists really. If it's current wave of feminists then they need to be put down. But otherwise I'm for women's rights and etc.
I think the wage gap ought to have every penny accounted for. But once that's done I think all other feminist issues are as made up as the incel thing.
I think they are ok as long as they have a balanced view of gender. Men can be feminists too. And I think if you are about supporting women and men equally. I think it's a good thing
I think they get a bad rep because of the extremist members of the movement. Most feminist i met in real life are good people. I think it's just people tend to focus more on the negative side of the movement more than the positive side of it.

What is wrong with body hair? You will be humiliated and get disgusting stares if you dont shave. It is an real issue

@kim45456 maybe because it is disgusting?
So you are disgusting then, cause many men dont shave
@kim45456 men don't show it with revealing clothing all the time.
I have seen men with super short shorts with really hairy legs
In the summer
I like feminism but there's the brownie point feminists who just give it lip service and don't actually give a shit and just do it to fit in
I despise every single one I met.
I believe there are some geniuine feminists out there, but HUGE majority of them are pieces of shit.
And the TRUTH!!!
I dont mind feminist. But I do dislike extremists. Yeah that includes feminist extremists, don't go start no witchhunt.
Most feminists are good people. But then there's the loud minority and the extreme ones that takes words to action.
As with any movements I am okay with most of them , it is just the extreme ones who get under my skin and even the ideas I agree with.
Perfectly fine with feminists, dislike feminist-extremists.
I can only laugh at women who say they don't like feminists. Until society tells you to shut your mouth, shut your legs and learn your place. Then you start throwing such temper tantrums that I cannot distinguish between standard issue feminists and self-proclaimed anti-feminist women.
I support traditional women suffrage rights, as I support social equality opportunities between genders.
As for modern feminists, I don't think about them or nor concern myself with them. I completely ignore them.
This is my perception of feminists:
Given the broad range of replies, are you able to clarify or define feminism for this question?

You nearly have it right.
They were a movement of misandrist prostitutes that inevitably failed when MGTOW and Incels became a thing to counter their movement, and now the movement is dead and gone.

Depends on whether you mean true feminists or feminazis.
indeed
Actual feminists i'm all for. Too bad it's so few of them left.
yea, most now a days are jus male haters who hide under the world of feminist so they can get away with being a male hating bitch
@gagsucs Yup.
I think the wage gap ought to have every penny accounted for. But once that's done I think all other feminist issues are as made up as the incel thing.
I think they are ok as long as they have a balanced view of gender. Men can be feminists too. And I think if you are about supporting women and men equally. I think it's a good thing
Weak. Suck.
