Why do a lot of feminists believe the differences between men and women are merely socially constructed?

[Deserter3]

This is something that's so easily debunked. If you take Estrogen or Testosterone it changes your appearance, personality, how you think.

Women think men don't open up cause it is shunned by society, in reality men just aren't as emotional.

[contentious]

They draw their ideas from the heretical Gnostic Gospel of Thomas...

Simon Peter said to him "Let Mary leave us for women are not worthy of life". Jesus said, "I myself shall lead her in order to make her male, so that she too may become a living spirit resembling you males. For every woman who will make herself male will enter the kingdom of heaven."

Gnostics/Arians/Muslims think material existence is flawed or evil, because they are turning against God and creation. The think what God created is evil. They are basically a death cult that want to wipe out humanity. They see creation as a mistake, and they think their mystic spirit body will be transformed... That's where all that transhumanism and feminism shit comes from. They focus on their spirit form... That's were all that I identify as shit comes from... They embrace irrationality as Sufi Islam teaches and they try to do mystical rituals/magic to elevate their spirit through different levels and they actually think they can become gods... Their Satanists, the entire lot of them...

Dude. You ought to be old enough to think beyond the silly interpretation you wrote.

Jesus himself, in non-"heretical" gospels talks about transcending your sexed animal nature. You also ought to "be as a child to enter the kingdom of heaven". And children aren't exactly sexual.

[contentious]

@PavlovsCogk Jesus doesn't say become little children... Jesus says "Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become LIKE children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven" in Matthew 18:3. Jesus uses analogous language. Children have admirable traits before they get corrupted by the manipulation of sin. Adults can also possess those traits, LIKE a child if they are free of sin.

[PavlovsCogk]

Either way, the libtards absolutely do not draw on gnostic texts. They do the opposite of them and are closer to mainstream religious materialism than to occult christianity.

Libtards shove tranny sexuality into everything. Esoteric christianity on the other hand is about using sexuality and love for the good, without fanaticism but applying gender as long as you have a physical material bоdy. While it is true that disembodied spirits aren't sexual, and therefore children who are halfway in the spiritual realm and halfway in the material bodies are less sexed than densified adults, it is a gross misinterpretation if anyone goes on to say that spirituality is about becoming a tranny.

Inatead, you do not have sex once you leave this physical body.

[contentious]

@PavlovsCogk They don't follow that line of reasoning to become a spiritual tranny so to speak (but you could argue that point of view), they do it to oppose God. You can even look into gender theory/queer theory scholarly publications and find that the modern transgender movement is specifically designed to transgress against God. So when God commends:

Deuteronomy 22:5
“A woman shall not wear a man's garment, nor shall a man put on a woman's cloak, for whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord your God"

They then do the opposite, because they don't worship Yahweh, they worship Sin. The Gnostic do the same thing to attack God. They pervert the Bible and falsely attribute their works to others as an attack on God. When God creates male and female in his own image, the Gnostic hating the material world created by the word of God claim women are not worthy of life and they must change to become a man. This is the same reason Islam thinks women are half brains and most of the people in hell are women. What God created is bad from their view. Creation is dirty and unworthy and God did that. Islam is rooted in that Gnostic/Arian line of thought, just like the modern Communist/Woke/LGBTQ+ moments are. It is just a derivative deception. When you look into Islam for example, their deity is a collection of many different false gods that take on whatever gender is needed to deceive people. The Romans did the same thing. Ultimately they track back to Satan who takes on different genders just like the tranny woke retards. God creates and sustains, and thus in the absence of God you are left in the abyss, the outer darkness, annihilation...

[contentious]

Don't Gnostics call their deity the Abyss? What is an Abyss after all? Bottomless... Who is kept in the bottomless pit? Satan... That's who Gnostics worship.

[PavlovsCogk]

"God created man and woman in his own image" before eve was formed. Sure, some materialistic christians interpret some lilith stories into it. Jews on the other hand interpret it that adam was first androgynous. Likely, it is meant to symbolize that primal humanity, before even descending into the physical realm and shortly while still in the metaphorical garden of eden, was androgynous.

Sure there are those who worship destruction. Sure feminism has roots in spiritual wickedness. But by that, we mean spiritual retardation. Just as there are mentally retarded humans, so there are retarded spirits. The occultist founders of feminism worship spiritual retard, which you may refer to as fallen angels, but realize that the theologocal, mythological tales are a symbolic representation of the truth.

It would not make any sense whatsoever to worship a devil who is bound to eternal torment.

[contentious]

@pavlovscogkcogk Adam is not a tranny. Adam is multi-personal in the image of God (i. e. Trinity). This is why them, their, they is used in to reference Adam.

"This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created MAN, in the likeness of God made He him; MALE AND FEMALE created He THEM, and blessed THEM, AND CALLED THEIR NAME ADAM, in the day when THEY were created. And Adam lived a hundred and thirty years, and begot a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth." Genesis 5:1-3

[Entertained_Adult]

"Their name Adam" - exactly, plural "them" but singular "adam" because this "adam" was not a single human being, but all of the androgynous race.

[contentious]

@Entertained_Adult Adam is mankind, humanity, multi-personal men and women, not an androgynous. An androgenous person would be singular not plural. You guys can't help but lie. It's part of your Satanism.

[blackeagle007]

Fun I mean

[Entertained_Adult]

@blackeagle007 beautifully triggered mobster.

Now, please, in clear English language, list your complaints.

[blackeagle007]

@Entertained_Adult I’m good. No one else is

[Snakeyes7]

Its so strange too becausein their mind, they can easily escape the oppression of being a woman by simply not identifying as such.

[Razp_Sorbet]

Because part of it is actually social. Yes men aren't as emotional as women BUT there is also a social stigma about men who show their feelings. There's a reason why suicide rates in men are high and the reason is not testosterone.

[grega239]

Thats not the reason for suicide.

[Razp_Sorbet]

@grega239 hiiiighly suggest re-reading what I said ☺️

[blackeagle007]

Because men don’t know how to grieve

[Razp_Sorbet]

Men have been conditioned to not talk about how they feel

[Deserter3]

Conditioned by women if anything, have you been conditioned TO talk about your feelings? Why do women assume their nature is the default and any deviation is due to conditioning?

[Razp_Sorbet]

Because there's evidence... "Harden up" "be a man" "boys don't cry" etc etc.

[Deserter3]

Never been told this lol

[blackeagle007]

No one’s conditioned me at anything. I’m just not very emotional. I’m saddened about losses, who wouldn’t be? But it’s not common for me to cry

[Razp_Sorbet]

Just because it didn't happen to you doesn't mean that it didn't happen at all

[Deserter3]

You act like everyone is being sat down and told to conform to gender norms tho, literally who told you to cry or not to cry?

[Razp_Sorbet]

"Patriarchal norms reinforce this emotional restriction, encouraging men to believe that repressing emotional expression enhances their masculinity. However, within the differentiated socialization under patriarchal society, not all emotions are suppressed equally. Hegemonic masculinity values imperatives such as “being strong”, both physically and emotionally. Emotions such as tenderness, compassion, fear, sadness, and pain are often viewed as weaknesses, whereas aggression, anger, and indifference—emotions linked to action and dominance—align men with societal expectations and peer acceptance"
"This restrictive stance may help explain why, in many cases, men hesitate to seek mental health support, even in the face of significant crises"
"led to feelings of inadequacy in fulfilling the core expectations of hegemonic masculinity, resulting in existential and emotional crises for many of them [19]. This dynamic underscore the pervasive influence of the key gender norm: “being strong” [19]."

[Deserter3]

Enforced by who? When?

[Razp_Sorbet]

✨ society ✨✨ constantly ✨

[Deserter3]

Give an example

[Razp_Sorbet]

I already gave many...

[Deserter3]

No you didn't, you said these are norms but can't give examples of who is enforcing them or when

[Razp_Sorbet]

Society enforces them. I don't know what's so difficult about that to understand. Men get encouraged from a very young age to essentially hide any feelings that could be considered soft or unmasculine. It's something that has gotten better as time has gone on our grandparents definitely had it worse with this. It's also shown a lot in media.

[Deserter3]

When? By who? Teachers? No. Television? No. Parents? No. So who?

[Razp_Sorbet]

Yes to all of those. Again just because it didn't happen to you or you've simply not noticed it doesn't mean it doesn't happen.

[Deserter3]

All my life it hasn't happened but we're surrounded by it, sure

[Razp_Sorbet]

Well that's excellent. Many people are working hard to get rid of the toxic masculine stigmas.

[grega239]

Being conditioned to be less emotionally expressive isn't the reason for suicide

[Razp_Sorbet]

@grega239 it's part of the reason

[blackeagle007]

Which is good. Why is masculinity so bad? I thought opposites attract? 🤔

[Razp_Sorbet]

@blackeagle007 being emotionally repressed isn't healthy masculinity. There's nothing wrong with being masculine at all, the issue is masculinity has been squished down into this tiny toxic box that restricts and ultimately hurts men.

[blackeagle007]

So then who do we blame that’s trying to stigmatize this? I truly believe it’s feminist groups. Whenever a woman calls out for help carrying something, guys just keep walking along and ignore her. We’re sick of being called creeps when we find someone romantically attractive. You ladies expect to get approached right? So then why do you get upset when we do?

[Razp_Sorbet]

@blackeagle007 everyone is to blame. I can't call out individual groups because it happens so widely.

It's a scary world out there. If a woman is calling you a creep for approaching her in a nice way then she's obviously not interested and it's not worth dwelling on.

[blackeagle007]

That’s why we no longer approach. It’s hard for women to be interested in us. Just takes a lot. Women just have unrealistic expectations

[Razp_Sorbet]

@blackeagle007 some women absolutely have unrealistic expectations. But reality is women get assaulted and stalked for saying no to men who approach so you can't blame us for being weary or just straight up ignoring men or saying something to get them to leave us alone. Anyways that's not the topic of this post and OP is already trying to get my answer removed because he doesn't like my opinions so ✌🏻

[blackeagle007]

Women stalked and assault men to. Now please stop your femanazi crap

[Razp_Sorbet]

@blackeagle007 two things can be true.

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

You’d be surprised how emotional men get when you give them the space to do so. I’ve always preferred the company of men with mothers and sisters than those with brothers and fathers for good reason.

[David318578]

If you like hanging out with fatherless guys you have been very lucky, statistically boys who grow up without fathers turn towards violence

70% of juveniles in state-operated institutions and 85% of youth in prisons come from fatherless homes. 80% of rapists come from fatherless homes. Fatherless children are six times more likely to live in poverty and commit criminal acts than children raised in dual-parent households.

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

Having company of mothers and sisters doesn’t mean fatherless, it means who they received the most influence from because of the gender majority in the house

[Deserter3]

Cause you're weird

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

@Deserter3 rude

[blackeagle007]

No. It’s true, children without both of their parents are likely going to be problems. Having 2 parents around has a better chance to get a hold of that child. Single mothers work so much, they don’t have time to be mothers. Where’s the father?

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

Oh ffs the key word is “dynamic” in nuclear family dynamic. A two parent household is not exclusively a nuclear dynamic.

[ManOnFire]

That is just a political angle from them. Feminists know well that men and women are different physically and mentally. They use the "social construct" angle as a way to promote their own agendas.

They also know that men and women are different because they want to marry men who are soft and can be controlled, but want sex with men who are dominant.

[Sal_Monella]

Feminists do not want to believe that they are limited by their chromosomes. They want to thank that they are equally abled with men both physically and mentally but they are not. But one thing I would like to see, though is for Caitlin Clark to play a game in the NBA In the role of Bob Cousy, a lithe, short, athletic ball handler and jump shooter. Unlike in women's college basketball They would never foul her.

[aceleon]

Because understanding doesn't work for their benefits.

The genetic difference that separates us from woman is larger than the ones that separates human from chimps.

[Smegskull]

Because the alternative means an unpayable debt.
Nobody likes owing people, nor do they like the people they owe. Germany started a war because it hated owing people. All of Europe hates the UK and US because it owes them.

[Babebytheshore85]

Speak for yourself. There are emotional men they just don't have the outlets women have. You literally just criticized an entire group of men yet you consider feminist bad?

[Babebytheshore85]

You literally called men robots. Men have emotions but not in the same way as a woman

[Deserter3]

I'm generalizing, genius. And no I didn't say we're robots or have no emotions, we're just more logic driven

[Babebytheshore85]

Yeah you're generalizing all men. Dude go outside and touch grass. It's clear you have no friends your views are very narrow and closed minded. Weird get a social life

[Babebytheshore85]

@OlderAndWiser

[SmokinAces2000]

Societal differences between men and women are most definitely socially constructed. Whether you open up or not has nothing to do with how emotional you are. Everyone goes through things and can decide whether they open up or not.

[Deserter3]

No they're not, They're clearly genetic

[SmokinAces2000]

Not everything is genetic….

[Deserter3]

Most of it is...

[WonderingManII]

I don't think society is as kind to men anymore. At least that has been my experience as a guy.

[Anonymous]

Because a lot of them are. Granted, hormones help, but the key factor is identity. And men, even cis men, can definitely be allies of feminism.

[blackeagle007]

Damned if we get emotional, dammed if we don’t. There’s no winning.

[Anonymous]

Woke feminist narratives and our of control feminist academia.
