The people who taught me about feminism: Your gender does not determine your behavior. Women can be good or they can be bad. Men can be good or they can be bad. No one is inherently a certain way because of their gender. If men agree with our feminist views and want to join us in our fight against the patriarchy we should let them. The patriarchy hurts all of us and getting rid of it helps both women and men. We should use our feminism to help everyone, not just women. Men should be encouraged to join us in this fight and use their male privilege to challenge the patriarchy by turning its own biases against it. We need more feminist men because feminism is to help everyone live a life free from the pressures of gender roles.
The Radical Feminists™ that I have met on Tumblr: How DARE you. You sexist, dick-sucking, woman hater! How DARE you treat men like human beings who can earn respect and not like walking Evil Penises! How DARE you even suggest that feminism can help men or that the patriarchy can be detrimental to them in some way! No I will not hear you out, you are promoting SEXISM and I won’t stand for it!! Men cannot ever be good no matter what, they are always misogynistic and if you disagree you are blind and complicit in your own oppression!! How can you not see that they want to sabotage us!!
Me: Uhm??? Are you certain you know what sexism means?? Are you certain that you aren’t the sexist here?? Y’know, with all the judging and stereotyping people based on their sex?? Like, the definition of sexism?? Are you ok????
RF™: Whatever. Dick-sucker. I guess you just love men and misogyny, dumbass. Don’t call yourself a feminist if you are just gonna support men.
Me: *concerned* What corner of hell on internet have I walked into.....
#Based on my actual experiences with Radblr ''feminists'' on this hellsite#like I understand the thought process I just think its dumb#I thought we were past this?? For some reason??#feminism#intersectional feminism#radical feminism#rant#radblr#why? idfk#this really must be an exhausting way to view the world#Enemies everywhere#even if they prove otherwise#it really isnt healthy to be this stubbornly hateful#toward anyone#and unwilling to have an honest conversation#like why is this a pattern of radfems?#why do y'all have to be like this#Im begging you to adopt just a little bit of nuance#and look beyond genitals and gender to see people#like actual human people#doing human things#and being imperfect sometimes#because GOD FORBID someone makes a mistake#or says something insensitive by accident#or is ignorant about things#because#you know#sometimes people have just never encountered a certain idea or had it explained well#and thats not their fault#you can't know everything
