The top 10 shocking “truths” about feminism I’ve learned from #HowToSpotAFeminist

@estraven
That’s because the backbone of the MRM is perceived injustice. Never do they ever stop to consider how maybe it’s something they’ve done that’s caused them their troubles, or maybe it was just bad luck, and instead seek to blame something/someone for their discomfort. They’ve chosen women/feminists (the two words are used interchangeably) and they’re not letting go. They feel that a restoration of male privilege as it once was is the only thing that will make them happy, and that kind of thinking is the bubble they try to stay in at any cost.

I went to the AVfM Facebook page. Scrolled down and saw a headline: “Tsongas bill looks to protect male victims of military sex assault”

First comment: “Better question is how many feminists will oppose it?”

They really believe feminists want to rape men? I don’t really understand this narrative (as usual).

These guys are trying to spot chickadees by looking for griffins. I guess they both have wings, but the similarities end there…

Dhag85; it simply doesn’t even occur to them that the vast majority of sexual assault on men…is by men, even in the military. Apparently its difficult for them to wrap their head around that idea.

And c’mon! Look at those screen names. You can automatically dismiss a person whose screen name is simply the name of a veneral disease or just Hitler or Mao. That is a person who has nothing of import or intelligence to say about any topic.

In related news, Elle magazine this month features Charlize Theron on its cover and beyond with a caption “Hollywood’s most fearless feminist,” totally confirming the Misogynist Rape Advocates’ stereotype of what feminists look like:

Soooooooo many new people to block. And according to the bio of one of them, I’m a coward for doing so. No, it’s more like I just don’t ever want to hear your bullshit ever again, thank you very much.

I’ve seen my share of misogyny over the years but never witnessed such vocalization as I have over the past 14 months over the internet. There’s been a veritable avalanche of hatred of the most vicious kind. It’s scary to realize just how many screwed up people there are -men and women alike. The nasty comments from the men on that hashtag, and especially the antisemitism and hypersexual insults on female genitalia, are appalling. But what truly bothers me is to see actual women join in support of misogyny and post negative things and/or “like” and “retweet” foul, hateful tweets. I saw one that read: (HTSAF)…”One who hates having her period because they don’t make a tampon big enough for her fat ass.” (checked account/real woman posted it) I mean, wtf? Wow.

I just can’t understand that other than knowing that misogyny isn’t just for men. For every jackass who posts such hateful crap there’s a self-loathing woman who thinks it’s funny.

I wonder how many of these manly men’s men flexing their e-biceps about fixing computers and changing tyres have ever built a computer or built a car. Because I have. Does that mean I’m not a feminist anymore? Or does it not count, since I’m gay and haha bulldyke lulz?

(Of course, I don’t think actually think that building/not building computers or cars makes anybody more/less manly, I’m just saying these guys are twits.)

”One who hates having her period because they don’t make a tampon big enough for her fat ass.” (checked account/real woman posted it) I mean, wtf? Wow.

That might very well be a new low in health class/sex ed failures.

Seconding Buttercup, plus what on Earth has toxic masculinity got to do with being able to repair stuff?”. Like… I’m crap with computers, so if something’s wrong with mine I just ask the IT guy at work. But how does that make me a hypocrite? When did a feminist ever say that knowing computers is a trait that men shouldn’t have?

Does he believe that “everything that’s ever been associated primarily with men”=”toxic masculinity and something feminists want to get rid of”?

Feminists hate men and think they’re stupid and useless, but hypocritically rely on men to do jobs that they are paid for.

Checkmate, feminists!

In response to that tampon one, it really surprises me how little women (and people in our) know about vaginas. One, I’m fat but uh I wear the lowest absorbent tampon available because I have a narrow vaginal channel and a light flow. My friend who has been severely underweight her entire life can’t use tampons because she has two vaginal channels but she used to wear the biggest extra absorbency one because she bleeds A LOT (she also has two uteruses). The point being one, weight doesn’t determine how “big” your vaginal canal is, and two, TAMPONS ARE WORN FOR ABSORBENCY NOT VAGINAL SIZE SHEESH. They do get bigger (which can be uncomfortable if you have a narrow canal because the scratchy material chafes the walls, at least for me) because the more blood the more material you need to absorb it.

*(or people in general)
*ABSORBENCY not absorbent

I hate my stupid phone.
