Masculinist/Feminist MegathreadWhy?Because nobody these days understands the
true meaning of feminism/masculinism, and always takes it into their own hands
What?This thread is for discussion about feminism and masculinism
MASCULINISM"Masculism (or masculinism) refers to political, cultural, and economic movements aimed at establishing and defending equal political, economic, and social rights and participation in society for men and boys."-Wikipedia
Breakdown:Masculinism is believing men should have the same rights as women. It is not the belief that men are greater than women.
Defending MasculinismWomen have always been treated as if they are godly. We hold doors open for women, we pick up stuff for them, and we are polite to them. Now they expect it from us.
FEMINISM"the advocacy of women's rights on the grounds of political, social, and economic equality to men"Breakdown:Feminism is believing women should have equal rights to men. It is not the belief that women are greater than men.
Defending FeminismMen have always had more rights than women. A woman can't be president, a priest, and they do lots of work around the house, while men basically slack off and do nothing (i'm a guy, believe me)
How has feminism been distorted?Feminism was always the above definition. However, some women tend to:
A: Believe that women are greater than men
B: Take simple every-day things and take them so seriously they make it seem like men overpower women.
How has masculinism been distorted?As far as I know, it hasn't.
Coexistence"At the core of coexistence is the awareness that individuals and groups differ in numerous ways including class, ethnicity, religion, gender, and political inclination. These group identities may be the causes of conflicts, contribute to the causes of conflicts, or may be solidified as conflicts develop and escalate."-Wikipedia
Breakdown:Coexistence is the belief in everyone being equal, no matter what race, color, gender, or whatever they are. You can coexist as a man or a woman. Coexistence is above all.
This is none of the above. This is a distortion of feminism, a bad distortion.
the terms "feminist" and "feminism" have been so distorted from their original meanings that it's useless to argue about them at all. everybody has their own ideas of what the words mean.
Do not flame feminism or masculinism on this thread. It's really annoying and makes the distortion grow. If your sole purpose of a post in this thread is to directly offend feminism or masculinism, it is not helping at all.
