Do you consider yourself a feminist?

[Shrimpenjoyer]

Yes

No

[sawno]

No, I have answered a few questions on this recently but i've spoken out against it on multiple occasions.

Ultimately I don't think absolute equality is the right goal, neither do I think the west needs a movement dedicated to giving women advantages men don't have. All their solutions tend to be discriminatory rather than actually fair, such as gender quota's which will always discriminate against the majority. Of course people who have been mislead into thinking that equal outcomes is in any way fair or desirable will often say that's not even discrimination, they are completely blind to their own discriminatory behavior because as long as you are harming someone from the majority group its fair game to them.

Men and women just aren't equal, they will never be. If you let each of them pursue their own interests you get different outcomes between the genders with some overlap. And that's totally fine, more power to them. What we do need to do is judge on relevant job criteria only, and demand that those are defined so that it can be reviewed. That way you don't get favoritism.

What we need is proper empowerment of every individual and give them the liberty to life their life according to their needs (and ideally wants) as long as it doesn't harm others. I think in the past movements like feminism were essential in for example allowing women to vote. But those goals have already been achieved in the west.

Of course, as a wise man say's anyone who knows anything of history knows that great social changes are impossible without feminine upheaval. Social progress can be measured exactly by the social position of the fair sex, the ugly ones included.

NEVER! I was but then I restored. Feminism is all about this:

"If I can’t have the biological advantages what you (men) have, I’ll make you look bad so I feel better."

Read my take about feminism and what they are really bothered with and hold such unreasonable hatred towards men: "Men Are Predators" Is a Feminists' Malicious Envy Towards Male Natural Superiority (As Ex-Feminist)

Feminism comes with a bad stigma these days because of a few idiots. But I'm generally in favour of equality between men and women.

Who do you think should pay in the first date

[lilBigPotato]

There is no "should". Splitting is fine and if either wants to do the extra effort and offers to pay that's fine too but isn't required.

[Shrimpenjoyer]

Alright cool

[blackeagle007]

U seem like a female

[beefcakebradybatson]

I'm also in favour of gender equality because of my female relatives and other women I knew.

[zombiewoof]

Not sure, just believe both guys and gals should be judged and treated the same

[Shrimpenjoyer]

Well yeah that's pretty much it

[Anonymous]

Of course not. I believe in caring about the interests and needs of both females AND males. Therefore I cannot in good conscience support today's feminism. As a man, supporting today's feminism is like a jew supporting Nazis.

[Shrimpenjoyer]

True feminism is about equality

[melssvdv]

@shrimpenjoyer There is no equality. That is not how this world works. Thus feminism is just another corruption invented by J3ws.

[Opinion Owner]

Feminism is about advancing women's interests and does not consider men's. That is not equality.

[Anonymous]

No not anymore.

[Shrimpenjoyer]

What happened

[Opinion Owner]

It was a lot of things, but the biggest I think was recognizing the toxic mindset it fostered in a lot of my friends (and in me).

I don't
