To abort a baby because he is male is BEYOND anything I could imagine.
Same with aborting a baby because she is female.

This is the worst sort of decadence.

Where do people come up with this stuff?

I'm not taking anybody seriously who uses that spelling (in the link in the first post)

I do understand there are some feminists that truly believe in equality, but for the most part, I want nothing to do with feminism. I feel the movement has turned into women trying to be better than men instead of equal.

That story absolutely disgusts me. I am unsure if it is legitimate, but whether it is or not, I have seen people defending her.
I agree with you on there but when I dissagree with femnazis I am instantly labled as a misogynist and patraichy and bla bla bla! Honestly though modern feminists dont care about men and hate men and whenever domestic violence, rape or sexual discrimination against men does happen they turn a blind eye to it, it is not important unless it happens to a woman, that is their mentality oh remember its only sexist when men do it.

My problem with the modern feminism is that they don't call out on their own gender that did horrible things such as gold diggers where they just want to get into relationship just for the money or the ones that goes out there and show off their skins to get men attentions and sleep with other men. If they really want equality, they should be able to call them out for what they done instead of letting them get away with it and continue to degraded men. Otherwise, it will keep continuing and thing is going to get worst in the future.

Sorry but I don't see how women dressing provocatively is degrading to men. I also don't see how a gold digger getting into a relationship (essentially selling herself) for money is degrading to the other person in the relationship.

:!: I don't think you get what i'm saying and i know it's your opinion.

How many times do you hear modern feminists complain about their own gender that making them look bad everyday? You know what they do? They ignored the issues completely like they don't exist and let it pass. Yet you see these kind of things on media all the time especially that glorified gold diggers. Not to mentioned that they never talked about and do something about women in the middle east get treated badly over there by religious men by making them dress in a way they wanted to. Instead, you heard them just complain about random things about men and video games majority of times. It's just sad.

Just my opinion that's all.

If you read the article, she considers herself to be a feminist and has taken part in feminist rallies.

But if you mean she misrepresents feminism, then for some you may be right. But I don't think feminism comes with just one voice nor one point of view.

As for her choice to abort at 5 months, long after she had decided to go ahead and have it, I struggle to accept that.

"Not a feminist" is up there with "No true Scotsman."

Gotta love the ad hominems against anyone and everyone who criticizes feminist ideology! There's even a color chart for it.

Snopes to the rescue.

Quote:
Inconsistencies aside, the site Injustice Stories was virtually unknown before the implausible story of Lana's abortion was published. That's probably because a domain lookup revealed the domain was registered on the same day Lana's story was posted. Furthermore, in order to read the entirety of the article, site visitors were forced to share the page on social media (which in turn boosted its visibility incrementally before it caught the eye of larger news sources). The tale's lack of plausibility, combined with the use of a brand-new site to publish it, indicated the account was likely a troll for pageviews, not a real-life account representing the sordid state of feminism. While many skeptical readers believed the hoax was aimed at promoting an anti-abortion agenda, it's also possible the site's purveyor fabricated the tale primarily to generate outrage-based clicks.

My comment was meant to be an insult, not a critique.

What better way to insult someone than to deny their own identity?

Anyway, I didn't read the article because I didn't want to share it on facebook (dumb). I read enough to figure it out though.

All this mudslinging needs to end. Judgements made on superficial characteristics are rarely accurate, let alone useful, and only perpetuate pre-existing systematic divisions.

Fedoras are hats too.

Phew!

But I have no doubt that there really *are* plenty of feminists who really would do such a thing(even though they aren't going to go public about it because of this hoax!).


My biggest gripe with feminists is they target socially inept/nerdish/autistic men for ridicule and vilification.

Screw the facts, it's probably true anyway?

OK, I'm guessing you're talking about GamerGate here. Some of the stuff there was probably hard on people who perceive themselves as hardcore gamers; I would suggest the main problem there was feminists conflating "GamerGate misogynists" with "gamers", and associating nerds with misogynists. That wasn't cool, but in the angry feminists' defence, there were extenuating circumstances. Hopefully many of them learned a lot.

wrt. autistic men, that's literally the complete opposite of my experience. I've always found that feminist groups are those most likely to try to accommodate autistic people, at times to the point of nausea.

That's not real feminism, it's like saying a black person saying that they support racial equality but they believe that balck people are the superior race. Or a gay person being against heterosexuality.
