YES I FEEL RESENTMENT FOR THE PATRIARCHY AND FOR MEN WHO ARE FULL OF HATRED AND HARM WOMEN But let’s continue to silence and judge women who don’t blind themselves to the reality of femicides, child marriages, rape, lack of education and more
Hating men to a point it’s your whole personality is just another way of centering your life around men

Yes we are all victims of the patriarchy but guess who fucking created that system, benefits off of it, and helps it to continue to grow in power every single day. MEN. Misandry isn’t fucking real y’all

if you can’t pass the bechdel test while and talk about feminism at the same time i think that’s a problem. if your feminism is entirely centered around your hatred of men then i really think you fundamentally misunderstand the mechanisms through which patriarchy is enforced and propagated. and ultimately your feminism will fail to be intersectional and often ends up being bioessentialist

women are the only group not allowed to hate their oppressors … the women in this group are very desperate and low self esteem so I’m not surprised they think this is some grand statement 😹

Yeah sure 100%. I dont think your feminism should be centered around hating men but hating women for hating men and calling it their whole personality is just dense to me

there’s a reason so many radfems end up being transphobes who fundamentally do not believe that feminism can succeed in abolishing patriarchy because they believe it arises naturally from men and women’s predispositions rather than being a socially enforced system of control

i don’t think that’s what the post is about. it’s saying if you center everything about yourself around your hatred of men then that’s another way of centering men in your life. it’s kind of like anti vaxxers who think they’re anti authoritarian for not doing “what they’re told” even tho that still means letting other people think for them and pretending the choice is their own

Gotcha I just think its a dangerous thing to say because it invites men to weaponize it and also realistically who is actually making their personality 100% about hating men? Just seems like a silly thing to be so pressed and nitpicky about imo

i’ve definitely met plenty of people who’s idea of feminism is way more rooted in their hatred of men than of their love of women. i also don’t think it really matters how misogynistic men will react to stuff that’s said in a women’s centered space. this is where we get to talk about issues within community without it being airing out dirty laundry
