You should refer to groups of people in the same way they refer to themselves. Calling someone a feminazi makes everything you say a lot less effective. Anyway, there are many types of feminists, most are pro-family and pro-fathers rights as well as mothers rights. You simply cannot make vast generalizations about feminists without being a bit more specific. What makes you think I don't come from a "destroyed" family myself?

"You should refer to groups of people in the same way they refer to themselves"

*****

Big mistake. Consider the following:

Hypocrites call themselves Christians, but in fact they are hypocrites.

Wiccans refer to themselves as witches, but in fact they are morons.

I could go on and on. But the upshot is this; call em like you see em.

The woman on that Feministing video was talking about sexists and/or misogynists, not all men. Do you think it's not sexist to say things like, 'get back in the kitchen, bitch', or, 'tits of GTFO', or even, 'feminists need to feel the back of a man's hand'? These are the type of sexist and misogynistic comments left for most feminism videos. And, weirdly, you still seem to think that there is no need for feminism.

[WarmLittleDiamond90]

Actually, feminism is about equality; viewing men and women as equals. Thus, a feminists doesn't view something a woman says as inherently better or less worthy of criticism than something a man says. Feminists don't like women or men to be put on pedestals based on their sex. It appears that you didn't do your research before making this video.You make a lot of claims which merely reflect an ignorant view of feminism based on stereotypes. Perhaps you should actually read some books.

Science and history are master discourses perpetuated by hetro-normativity!

love you logic.

@hpufo You are truly a fucking moron. You are misinterpreting your own quote which is why I called it bullshit. The pay gap is studied in a variety of areas, not just gender studies and it is always taught that there is a pay gap for women and minorities because this is the reality. All legitimate academic studies show this. Both within the same fields and across the board. Try going to a library as opposed to google.

[hpufo]

@MetalMannequin My god you are stupid. THERE IS NO STATISTIC SAYING THAT WOMEN MAKE LESS IN THE SAME OCCUPATION. The pay gap is on ALL occupations, NOT the same occupation. The so called bullshit quote was from the bureau of labor. In the second fucking paragraph. Which is proof that your dumbass never read it. Come back when you have actually read the study, and not some feminists interpretation of it. There is a reason why the pay gap isn't even taught in woman's studies classes.

@hpufo

I don't know what the fuck you are trying to quote. I never claimed that all people have the same experiences so I don't know what exactly you are rambling about there. In reality women do not make as much as men in the same occupations for the same amount of work. You can chose to disregard this, or find bullshit stats claiming otherwise but that is the world we live in. Do you not agree that women deserve equal pay? I don't even know what you are trying to argue anymore.

[hpufo]

@MetalMannequin (Part 2 of 2) First of all how common is it to find someone with the same experiences? How common is it to find someone with the same characteristics? Now what are the chances that they would be working in the same company, and lastly how is the DoL suppose to find enough of these rarities to form a study? This goes to show that you have never actually read the study and don't know WTF you are talking about. The study was taking over all occupations.

[hpufo]

@MetalMannequin (Part 1 of 2) And this is also within that very same statistic "Readers

should note that the comparisons of earnings in this report are on a

broad level and do not control for many factors that can be significant in explaining earnings differences." There are several factors why men earn more. Women choose to earn less when they choose to major in a LA, and are prevented from moving up when they take time off for maternity leave.
