no, because feminists do not blanket mock men for showing emotion (it is in fact men who enforce toxic masculinity on other men), men often do not need shelters to leave toxic relationships, and the severity of domestic violence inflicted on men is not as bad as that inflicted on women. it's more difficult then to interpret half hearted jokes targeting specific men as being actively harmful to men in the same way that misogyny is harmful against women

this is not to say that violence against men doesn't exist or is not a problem, but it's a significantly lesser problem than violence and insulting language against women, much the same way that white people's complaints about racism directed at them are often whiny and vacant

I agree, feminism shouldn't be about equality.

young feminist women who want to bathe in cishet tears isn't an accepted or even recognized part of feminist thought, although it may appear to be to someone whose primary exposure to feminist politics is through tumblr fakeposts

Deflect ideological criticism by pretending that your ideological identity doesn't exist.

No, the SCUM manifesto was a parody. Valerie Solanas had problems, but she was actually quite a clever and funny writer. The entire thing was pretty much a reversal of the standard Freudian analysis of how ultimately everything is about the penis.



Why would she shoot Andy Warhol if it was meant to be a parody and not a sincere manifesto?

To my knowledge even the film SCUM depicted the manifesto as a sincere anti natal philosophy of a women broken by cruelty.

K OP so

I think if feminism is to be taken seriously it could do without the needless trolling else you leave a large pocket of women with sympathies like this:

Thinking cost to benefit makes me think it would be more productive not to push people into the MRA camp.

Maybe you should report back to GBS.

Just make up a report and go back there.

Or don't. Just as long as you go there

Looking into my posting history is a pretty clear symptom of rustled jimmies, maybe try some anti-depressing life pills an a hug box?

I don't really have a prob with the whole 'it is fine to slur up whites cause they are privileged an powerful' but I don't really see the utility since it demonstrates that you guys are a bit of a hate group.

An if it is out of humour well than i guess i didn't see it as a joke prior to now, that said the rationale sounds abit storm fronty.

Just cause you're a grose fat an maybe ethnic types doesnt mean the healthiest way to cope is to just refract the racisms of the past an become feminism's edge lords. I mean if you guys were arguing that #killallblackpeople was hilarious i'd just think you were idiots too, an i'd be saying something like 'yo maybe arguing for mass murder isn't the best image you want to project for your obviously derailed ideology.'

Btw how is intersectionality suppose to bring about more equality than the previous feminism wave?

You're right, jokes about men are not funny, not like rape jokes, which are universally hilarious.

I agree, rape is always funny: http://geekfeminism.wikia.com/wiki/Dickwolves
