I’m a woman and I have all the parts to
prove it. However, I’m not a feminist. A woman who isn’t a feminist? Did you
fall off your chair in shock? Or spit your wine out over your computer? Good.
Yes, we do exist and we are fed up to the back teeth with women who are
feminists putting us down because of it.
Before
you roll your eyes at me, click off the article or call me an ‘idiotic
cum-guzzling slut’ in the comments below (yes I have been called that by a
fellow woman after telling them), take the time to read why I don’t personally
support feminism anymore.
I’m not
addressing every single feminist (I’m mainly addressing radical feminists) I’m
addressing the ones that if the shoe fits… well. You wear that shoe girlfriend.
I’m sick of hearing women whining
because of a ‘Damsel in Distress’ character in a video game, film, TV show. I’m
tired of hearing women cry ‘Why are women portrayed as the weaker sex in
films’. It’s a film. It is fictional, a story, entertainment. Entertainment
that you most likely secretly enjoyed as that Ironman film took your attention
away from everyday reality. What do you propose feminists? That we portray men
as the ones in distress instead? That all films are full of rainbows, happy
chubby unicorns, and fluffy clouds? There are thousands of films and games that
feature and portray powerful and strong women. So sit down and watch the Hunger
Games. Take a swig of vodka every time Katniss Everdeen does something sassy
that portrays her as a strong woman. I promise you will get drunker than you
did at prom.
Men are deemed as fuck boys, criminals,
rapists, thugs, mean, emotionless.. Where is the equality? How many times have
you heard a woman mutter the phases in your life ‘men are idiots’, ‘all men are
the same’, ‘men are arseholes’. No the wrong word to use here is ‘men’ not all
men are the same. Just because some twat called Jake broke your heart in Year 8
does not mean that you can discriminate against an entire gender. When will
women learn that not all men are the same?
If a man is beating
up or abusing a woman in public, then either the police arrive within 10
seconds or the bystanders beat up the guy. If a woman is beating a man, no one
cares. People say things like "he probably wastes money on alcohol"
or "he was probably cheating on her". There is no equality and justice for men who are domestically abused.
The problem is real
honest feminists who believe in equality for everyone are being out shadowed by
the radical feminists. Radical feminism is destroying something I once used to
fight for. I’m an independent sassy woman who treats everyone equally. I don’t
need to label myself with the F word. There are bigger problems in the world
than fictional characters not being portrayed the way you want them to be
portrayed.
All lives matter and equality for every single beating heart on this
planet should be what we spend our precious time fighting for. So when radical
feminists stop putting men down then I will happily call myself a feminist and
associate myself with the word.
So radical feminists please stop destroying something that could
be so powerful and life changing for the entire world.
In defense of the "If a man attacked a woman" trope versus "If a woman attacked a man", in case the woman didn't have any formal training (say she were a MMA fighter), the fight wouldn't seem "serious"(for lack of better word). It's basically like seeing a child trying to fight an adult, it has all the elements of a fight (slaps, punches, kicks) but no real damage is done, or if there is any damage, the adult can easily overpower the child and end the fight. A man could easily overpower a won and end the fight, or the very least protect himself. I assure you, police would get involved if a woman was physically injuring a defenseless man.
ReplyDeleteI am certain that vavaviolet knows that lol. I'm sure she mentioned that example to illustrate that men and women cannot be exactly equal as there are differences like strengths, etc.
DeleteI agree with you. The meaning of feminist sounds nice, but the way many feminists act are just illogical. They just want to complain about every little thing, they can't take a chill pill even when it is obviously a joke.
