I’d like to talk about feminism, its waves, inconsistencies, why it is not necessary in the western world, and why I do not call myself a feminist and instead prefer the term egalitarian. Now I know as a male writing about feminism, someone will inevitably scream “MANSPLAINEING”, but I will scream “FREEDOM OF SPEECH” way louder. I will start by defining feminism, feminism is the support of gender equality through female empowerment. Many modern feminists define it as only support of gender equality, but I reject that definition. Unlike many “anti-feminists”, I have no problem stamping labels on people, if they meet the established definition of said label. And if we were in Saudi Arabia and one asked me if I were a feminist I would most likely say “YES” just like if I traveled back to the roaring 20’s. The thing is that female empowerment is a very important part of feminism, hence the name FEMINism. I mean what if there was a group called the “MASCULINISTS”. That sounds too sexist for the MRA, who everyone already assumes is a hate group, which, spoiler alert, they’re not.
Now let’s go back, way back to the early 1900’s when feminism first started making it big. First wave feminism was about equal rights for upper class females. Second wave feminism was about equal rights for all females. Third wave feminism, probably its last necessary incarnation in the western world, was about sexual liberation for all females. And fourth wave feminism is about misandry, victimization, and establishing a matriarchy. It’s funny to me so many feminists yell “PATRIARCHY” to refer to all things bad, all the while talking up a matriarchy. Neither of these things are equality. Look at Hillary Clinton using her sex as a merit, which is incredibly sexist, so why did so many feminists cheer? Same reason many support Islam, even though Islam supports EVERYTHING feminists hate. It’s because they don’t think things through. They hear a problem and go with it, ignore facts, create an echo chamber, ignore cis males, and listen and believe all females, except for gender traitors like Lauren Southern or June Lapine (AKA ShoeOnHead).
Islam apologetics is only one example of fourth wave feminisms inconsistences. They love to talk about abortion as a “bodily choose” issue yet ignore prostitution entirely, I mean talk about bodily choose, am I right? Or am I right? I’m totally right. And “mansplaining” as if that means anything, I can’t even count the amount of times I’ve heard “no uterus no opinion” but never would that be uttered to a pro-choose male, yet another inconsistency. But this logic is dangerous, one could use the same logical basis of “you can’t understand and therefore criticize what you have not experienced” to easily argue that a rapists trial should consist of a jury of twelve rapists. And that is a bad idea, do you have any idea how hard it would be to convict a rapist? You’d have to convince 12 other rapists that that dude crossed a line.
So do I sound like an MRA yet? I am clearly not a feminist, so MRA right? Wrong, dead wrong, literally could not be more wrong. See here’s the thing, whilst feminism is inherently divisive, always has been, and is only becoming more obvious, due to the empowerment of females currently being unnecessary, at least in the western world, the MRA is almost inevitable. However it is very childish, MRAs basically understand the divisiveness of fourth wave feminism, and, like children say “you can be divisive, well two can play at that game, MENS RIGHTS ha”. And that’s not to say they make no valid points, or don’t get more crap then they deserve, they certainly do. But the point is all feminists and MRAs are children, that don’t know words, and they should grow up, study, call themselves an egalitarian, like an adult, and be done with it.
Suggestion time, all feminist groups should move to the Islamic world, and maybe the Bible belt in the U.S., being that Christianity is the number one largest sustaining force of sexism in the western world, all of them, every denomination from the Methodists to the Baptists and every one in between. The MRA should be dissolved while points heard and taken. And this may be unrelated but pro-lifers out there, let’s kick out the Christians, because they’re not helping, look I know our numbers will go down faster than a nymphos pants on a porno set, but the arguments will become like Einstein grade, just something to think about.
