It's also worth mentioning that painting feminists as humourless and unable to feel joy is a big part of how anti-feminists promote their cause. A lot of this image of feminists comes from specifically what those mocking them decide to promote the most. If we're assigning blame (and i can't tell if we are or Just Asking Some Questions) then it's as much due to whatever trends in media as a whole allow for this image to gain traction.

Nah, things are massively different now. We've moved on as a society. Some of the women in the first row would have dyed hair and some piercings. One of them would have part of their head shaved.

Pharohman777 posted:Those issues and many more are part of the reason that so many are against what they see as the current face of feminism. Now, why are these things what they see as the current face of feminism? It's not because it's the entire output of the Official UN Agency For What Feminism Is, for one thing.

rudatron posted:It's rare enough to be considered an outlier. So if you're calling that a cultural concept, then 'humans have 2 arms and 2 legs' is also cultural, since birth defects are a thing. This is true, but if we based the entirety of our society on the fact that absolutely everyone has 2 arms and 2 legs then yeah, that would be pretty lovely for disabled people.
