Feminism

Ironically enough, If you're searching for 'valid' arguments in favour of Feminism then academia would be the place to go. I did not recycle any of my arguments personally, Though you're welcome to do so if you cite the source. Have you tried Google Scholar? I also think you may be under a misconception so let's clear it up now. I am arguing against feminism, Not against feminists as individuals. Feminism is simply not egalitarian, I'd regard it primarily as insidious subversion. Rebuttal "Do you grow up as a kid thinking: I want to work at a sewage plant for half my life! You don't. " Many men choose to become plumbers, Construction works, Or go into a trade career because it's in high demand. I feel bad for the few people on the job who have to wade through faeces but that isn't a common occurrence and a result of their own failings. "But if an egalitarian agenda is fought for in the name of equality for women" By fighting for something in the name of specifically women you've ruled out the possibility of it ever being egalitarian. "The concept of the 'perfect girl' is still a thing focused upon by too many girls in my school, Middle aged mothers, And recently graduated college students. " The only reason this could be harmful is if the women/girls are alienated from this endeavour. It happens, But this isn't rectifiable by feminism. "Another recent event that has come in the name of equality is the 'me too' movement. Allegations should always be taken seriously, But if they are false, The victim has to own up to his or her lies" Could you explain the results of this movement in detail, It seems you may be excluding a few crucial details [4]. Under a feminist culture, There is no reason for a false-victim to own up to her lips as she's a victim of the patriarchy. "In an egalitarian movement, Everyone has the right to express whoever they want to be. This is not something I see in my school. There are about 50-150 girls in my school that if you put them side by side, You would have trouble telling the differences. " Is anyone forcing all 150 of these girls to behave and act in the exact same manner? It seems to me that isn't the case and that they're emulating a perceived ideal. Individuals are defined by their differences and groups by their similarity, We'd do well to remember this. "Was it right and just that women got to vote or no? " Sure it was, But it isn't a feminist concept. "Yes, We are different, But we are still equal. We are all intelligent to a degree and had the same ancestors. So, Women should be exactly equal to men. There is a difference between equality and equity. Equality is where everyone gets treated the same no matter what, Equity is where everyone gets exactly what they need to come out equal in the end. " Saying "women should be exactly equal to men" is an argument for equality of outcome. We are not equal in terms of biology or psychology, Which makes sense considering the psyche has a physiological grounding. [5][6] This is an unachievable ideal and pursuit of it always results in bloodshed. "This is both a micro-aggression and stereotyping. Do all feminists or even all contemporaries become angry at the concept of a person not being fooled by a lie? . . . You can't argue against both. You argue against the contemporary movement, Which is more women>men, But you fail to realize there are two more pieces of the shattered movement. . . . The original movement still stands. " It very clearly wasn't stereotyping, I specified postmodern feminism which is the primary denomination of modern feminism. If you don't understand the postmodernist movement you don't understand anything of modern politics. I don't understand this type of vocabulary. I've never heard of a "microaggression" before, But this seems a very convenient way to discount the character of an individual with opposing ideas. "Brave women who want to be soldiers, Who want to feel equally safe, Who want to compete, Who want to preform physical labor, Who want to live their life to the fullest in co-existence with everyone. " These women are not feminists, And those who are are in a smaller minority than the intellectuals of the feminist movement. Also, I am not arguing against the people I'm arguing against the idea. Lieing to these women is not doing them any good, It becomes even more heinous when you do so because they're women. There were many good Nazis, That doesn't make Nazism good. Even provided everything you've said is true, You're taking a marginal case and arguing it broadly. Also, It seems you've neglected to directly address at least 2 of the 5 points I articulated against Feminism. I will put my sources in my profile.
