Kennethor: Where do you get this from? I say that women are far more opressed and exposed in our society, not that all men are pigs or that all women are angels.

hedwards: You think that in large part because nobody is going to fund a study that finds anything else. People assume that women are disadvantaged because they were told that. And they were told that because studies found that. And in large part the studies found that disproportionately because it's a nightmare to get funding for a study to figure out how many women behave like that.

I've known a lot of women over the years and it's absolutely ridiculous to suggest that they aren't every bit as sexist and ill-mannered as men are. The difference is that they tend to do different anti-social things. And those antisocial things tend to be considered less serious as women are the ones being oppressed. Good luck tricking a woman into thinking that she's a mother, but paternity fraud is fairly common.
Because you have known a lot of women you know all this? I guess that speaks louder than all the studies and articles and statistics. Even if you are right, that there are a lot of sexist men and women and they are as you say "ill-mannered" whatever that means, there is still pretty strong things that suggests women are in a shall we say "disadvantage" from the moment they are born only because they don't have a penis.

USAs "feminists" seem to split the country in two camps, the men and the women. I feel sorry for the few that actually are feminists in USA as they are labelled idiots on sight by some.
Our feminists argue more intellectual and reasonable, the ones that don't are a minority.

Well no, that's because African Knights are non-migratory.

By the way, this seems to be the thread about feminism that lasted the longest on GOG.com without staff locking it down.

Probably figured out that if they lock one thread then it just migrates to another one ... this way it is contained.

About feminism? Not really. About peoples opinions on very different things, very few examples on feminism though.

Real feminists are about breaking down the limitations on gender, "Media Feminism" holds about the same stance on equality as the Black Panthers or the KKK.

Finally someone you seems to get that, not just throwing the world feminist left and right when talking about nutjobs.

No true feminist would say that.

A feminist might, but a true one wouldn't.

What's a "true feminist"? Seriously, I think each of all the branches of feminists consider themselves the "true" ones and I have yet to find out which one deserves that term objectively. :P
