Why is today's feminism so toxic and divisive? (Page 3)

Question

It feels like feminism has gone completely off the rails and just does so much more harm than good now, unlike in the past when the movement was actually respectable and seemed to have some semblance of direction, morality and ethics. Today, it seems the primary goal of feminism is to divide men and women and create as much animosity between them as possible. What has happened to feminism to make it so toxic? Is it just the fact that all of its valid and achievable goals have already been attained, so all the normal and sane women have left the movement, leaving behind only the bitter and mentally unstable ones? Or is it something else? What are your thoughts?

Because it isn't feminism. Feminism is Susan B. Anthony, equal rights under the law. This modern stuff is RadFem Lunacy.

My thought is that it's thriving like Christianity. People all instantly believe what they first hear and it became something different than from what it originally was to the public.

i think in many cases, "how someone percieves the world to be" is "how they actually are"... i hope that answers the question.

Because it is being run by a vocal minority of radicals.  Is it any wonder that so few women identify as a feminist nowadays?

I might be over simplifying it but I always felt that the real problems are created by women who are overcompensating by asking for too much.

Simple... we let them get into positions of power and they used those positions to take over and then their true colors bleed through. The hate group it has always been.

I dont support any group of people who gathered under any gender label. You have to evaluate people only according to their thoughts and minds not genitals

Why is your question so biased? Feminism is always going to divide because some people want to keep women chained down and not free or equal with men

That's your POV.  People see extremist views and believe those are feminist. Do some research about what it means to begin with and the current situation of women worldwide. Maybe, you'll understand.
