i agree with everything but thisss; "muslim women must wear hijabâ VS âmuslim men force muslim women wear hijab"
muslim men dont force muslim women to wear it!! muslim women are NOT oppressed. (dunno bout iran,, but in general yk?)
âmuslim women arenât oppressedâ for real? google âkilled for not wearing hijabâ. google âwhat would you do if your wife/daughter took of her hijabâ and read what men answer. you say you âdunno about iranâ, but are women in iran not important because you âdunnoâ about them? what about afghanistan? or chechnya? do womenâs lives and happiness have less worth because they live in non-western countries?
other than hijab, i suggest that you read about abortion and divorce laws in palestine, afghanistan, etc.

women online: feminism is not about hating men, itâs about equality for everyoneđ what do you mean you donât read books by men, listen to male artists and donât have male friends? thatâs not feminist, thatâs men hatingđ because of women like you feminism has a bad reputation! men would support feminism if it wasnât for you!
men online: damn why is it getting harder to find real rape videos to jack offâŠ.all the rape on phub looks too fake and doesnt make me hard anymoreâŠ..

beauty rituals are so mundane. theyâre not just normalised, theyâre expected of us. and it makes them a hundred times more humiliating.
painting a new face on your own, perfectly normal face? humiliating.
wearing clothes that donât let you sit comfortably, bend down, walk up the stairsâŠ. degrading
paying other women to apply wax on your intimate parts and armpits and then rip your hair out? wtf even is that.
no matter how much time i spend around women i canât get used to it: glued eyelashes, lip fillers, fake nails, exposing clothes, hairless, often malnourished bodiesâŠ. the thoughts about humiliation women put themselves through never leave my mind

âwomen used to marry young and have a lot of childrenâ VS âmen used to marry women when they were still little girls and force them to be pregnant and give birth their whole lifeâ.
âin the past women didnât get educationâ VS âin the past, men stopped women from getting education and excluded them from all cultural spheresâ.
âmuslim women must wear hijabâ VS âmuslim men force muslim women wear hijabâ.
âin this country, abortion is illegalâ VS âmen in this country made women getting abortion illegalâ.
womenâs oppression doesnât happen by itself. womenâs oppression isnât passive. there is an oppressor class that actively chooses to oppress women, and the oppressor class is MEN.

context: the video was about a social experiment during which men who called a brothel number were instead informed about the statistics of violence against women who then end up in prostitution - rape and abuse from their trusted ones, human trafficking, poverty, drug abuse.
In my opinion, the radical feminist VS gender identity debate boils down to materialism vs dualism and feminism vs post modernism.
To explain:
Mindâbody dualism, in essence, postulates that human beings have souls. It's a philosophy that denotes either the view that mental phenomena are non-physical, or that the mind and body are distinct and separable. Therefore, one can be born male and have a female soul/spirit/essence/psyche/personality/identity. It is compatible with many religions and was promoted by many famous philosophers and theologians (often both.) It is a form of spirituality.
On the other hand we have materialism. Radical feminism, marxism and communism come from materialism. Materialism can also be found in science, such as the theory of evolution.
Materialism is a form of philosophy which holds that all things, including mental states and consciousness, are results of material interactions of material things. Mind and consciousness are caused by physical processes in the body without which they cannot exist. It opposes spirituality and dualism and negates the concept of a soul. Therefore, there is no female soul inside of a man's body because there is no soul at all, female or male, only a body. That man's body is male because of its sex which means his personality and thoughts are that of a male.
The other conflict is between feminism and post modernism.
Post modernism, as a philosophy, postulates that there is no "truth" because everything is relative. There is no objective reality, just opinions, perspectives and thoughts. Nothing is real, because everybody is different. There are no facts, only viewpoints. Therefore, postmodern philosophers spend a lot of time discussing theory and abstract concepts instead of the material reality of class struggle and its consequences. Think of all the discussions about "identities", "what is a woman" and how to "feel empowered." In this world, sexism is something relative and abstract, something to talk about, not to fight. To quote Catharine MacKinnon "Their critically-minded students are taught that nothing is real, that disengagement is smart (not to mention careerpromoting), that politics is pantomime and ventriloquism, that reality is a text (reading is safer than acting any day), that creative misreading is resistance (you feel so radical and comfortably marginal), that nothing can be changed (you can only amuse yourself)." Post modernism is directly linked to individualism (a social theory favouring freedom of action for individuals over collective) and neo-liberalism (there is no public interest, only individuals' interests) positioning itself against collectivism, class consciousness and class struggle, all core tenets of feminism.
Feminism is a materialistic movement that seeks to liberate women (radical feminism) or at the very least to improve the very real, very concrete, material lives of some women (liberal feminism). It postulates that men and women are social classes and that men are waging a war against women, and have been for centuries. The oppressors and the oppressed are clearly defined, it's not "relative", it's not a viewpoint, it's history and facts, it's political, and strategies and actions are used to free women from male supremacy (radical feminism) or to make said male supremacy more bearable (liberal feminism). In this movement, the idea of Woman the abstract concept or Woman the spirit/personality/soul in a body makes no sense and is considered misogynistic.

Finished 'femininity and domination' and i'm just gobsmacked. in a world full of propaganda about "reclaiming femininity", it feels like resistance to remember that femininity is not a harmless collection of traits and aesthetics but a politicized value system that demands the subordination of women. femininity not only demands women be subordinate but teaches them how to be subordinate and take pleasure in their subordination. and it makes power, real power, seem dull and abstract. it's an excellent mechanism for producing docile persons
this was something i intuitively understood at a young age and which was slowly eroded after a decade of "feminist" attempts to reclaim the value system that demands our subordination. gender was and still is about power

genuinely believe most young people online donât have any real moral compass or belief system, and just believe whatever the most dominant opinion on social media is. oh everyone is bashing amber heard so she must be the abuser. all my friends are sharing this infographic about how Hamas is actually an awesome revolutionary group so that must be the truth. my favorite celebrities are denouncing JKR so I better do the same. and they do it feverishly. sharing infographics and gofundmes and putting slogans in their bios even though their only followers are people they went to high school with because they are so terrified of being on âthe wrong side of historyâ that they wonât even do the most kindergarten level of critical thinking first. and if the dominant view shifts over time (see: amber heard) they quickly and slickly change their stance and pretend they always felt that way. and if you pick these people apart a little bit and ask well what do YOU believe they really donât have an answer.
