Here’s an undeniable fact: Most men have women’s best interests at heart and most women have men’s best interests at heart. Of course, there are anomalies on either side of the spectrum, but overall, in today’s modern age, we want what’s best for either gender.
Have things always been this way? Clearly not. Embarrassingly enough, throughout history, women have had to deal with unjustified inequality and have been subjugated by assuming lesser roles, while men were free to choose. This still happens in the Middle East and North Africa, but let’s keep this neat and specific by focusing on the Western world. I’ll gladly write a follow up on the Middle East if this piece is received well.
Thankfully, due to brave 1st wave feminists, both men and women have taken a courageous stance against those injustices by aggressively advocating for much needed equal rights. Consequently, gender inequality slowly attenuated over time and gradually became a thing of the past. From not being able to vote, work or study, women are now afforded the exact same opportunities as men. A woman can now finish High-School, go to College, graduate with a degree and get a high paying job. When a company today advertises for a job, they don’t ask for the person’s gender; they will specify the requirements, outline the base pay and define the job description. Women don’t have to marry if they don’t want to and can choose to climb the corporate ladder over having kids any day of the week. Hell, western women can become world leaders if they set their minds to it. Hooray! Systemic sexism no longer exists. We have finally achieved gender equality in the western world!
Well, not according to everyone. Today’s Feminists belie… “Hold on just a second, did you just say, Feminists? Why do we still need Feminists if we have already achieved systemic gender equality?”
Great. I’m glad you asked. We don’t. Unfortunately, a group of ugly, angry, entitled and frustrated women came together and have decided to recycle the ever so inspiring word ‘feminist’. And because equality has already been achieved, they have resorted to destructive agendas such as belittling men, perpetuating confirmed myths such as the ‘gender pay gap’, telling women they don’t need men (which is extremely divisive because we do need each other), and labelling anyone who doesn’t agree with them as either a sell out or a misogynist.
Third Wave Feminists are gangsters. They aren’t interested in true equality. They don’t care about the wellbeing of the everyday woman. All they are interested in is recruiting more followers while, at the same time, socially castrating and ridiculing males. They insidiously try to blame men for all their problems by painting us as the oppressors using fake, absurd, inconsistent and divisive concepts such as ‘Toxic Masculinity’ and ‘Patriarchy’ or vilifying us by coining terms such as ‘The Male Gaze’ or restricting our freedom of expression using terms such as ‘Manspreading’ and ‘Mansplaining’. If you refer to a group of women as ‘girls’ nowadays, then they get incredibly offended because you are supposedly intentionally belittling them. And don’t get me started with how preposterous it is to refer to a woman as ‘darling’. In other words: we can say goodbye to freedom of speech.
Feminists will spend a great deal of their energy boycotting and protesting the first actress to empower young women by successfully portraying Wonder Woman; the world’s most inspiring, powerful and colorful female superhero. Why? Because she’s Israeli (Ironically Feminists hate Israelis). Imagine if they invested a tenth of that energy supporting oppressed Muslim women in third world Arab countries? But they won’t. Do you want to know why? Because it’s not about equality. It’s not about empowering the female gender for the right reasons. It’s about power. It’s about revenge. It’s about gangsterism. Furthering their agenda in the most misandric of ways without remorse. Does that sound like a positive, loving movement? In a perfect third wave feminist world, women would be in power and men would be subordinate to them.
A year ago, I would not have bothered to write this. I was under the logical impression that they are a ridiculous droll minority of extremists. And, in a way, they still are. I mean, a majority of both men and women do not want anything to do with their toxic ideologies. I have, however, noticed that as of late they have started to pick up some steam. They have somehow infiltrated the mainstream world and have been accepted with open arms by the far left.
Not sure if you have, but I have noticed a subtle shift in dynamics. Women are becoming more entitled. They are becoming overly critical of us. Men are afraid to express their masculinity lest they’d get abysmally labelled. The Feminist movement has given women permission to remorselessly destroy men regardless of the cost. If a man makes the slightest mistake, a woman is not only encouraged but now has the power to accuse him of sexual misconduct. Regardless of whether the man is innocent, the mantle is now on him to prove he wasn’t inappropriate. Yes, there are terrible males out there who commit unfathomable crimes and should be persecuted for their inexcusable actions at all costs, but it goes both ways. To pretend that women are holier than thou and focus entirely on one gender as being toxic is not only counterproductive, it’s harmful.
If you’re a man reading this, just know that Feminism wants to not only witness your downfall, they want to play an important part in it. Feminists don’t like you. Many of them are riddled with insecurities triggered by a bad experience and are now set to pursue vengeance. To them, we are the oppressors. The bullies. The ‘patriarchy’. There’s no room for negotiating or discussing. It’s not about logic. It’s personal.
If you’re a woman reading this, please understand that we’re not going to attain a harmonious relationship by going head to head. You’re not going to find happiness by following the miserable and you’re not going to achieve success by focusing on the negatives.
Feminism is cancerous for both men and women and it’s about time we take a stance in eradicating it from our society for the betterment of both genders.
Good Entry, although the bottom line shouldn't be that all feminism is bad and toxic, there are still some valid issues and moderate people. The problem are those fem-nazis or however you want to call them.
Yet I can to some degree understand, why there is such toxicity in femisim, anti-rascism movements or SWJ communities. If everyone has to fight for their life, they will try to get an advantage every way possible and over time this will result in civil unrest we see in all areas of soceity(i.E. politics, social media).
Absolutely. Could not agree more. Tribalism at its purest.

You have post good points. It feels like the pendulum has swung to far in the opposite direction. It would be good if it came back to the middle ground again.
I agree. I think it will as the feminist movement weakens and people stop taking them seriously...
