I do think by definition you are either a feminist (believe in gender equality) or you’re sexist (whether it be toward male of female).
Whats with the black and white/all or nothing thinking?
I'm not a feminist and neither am I a sexist. I just see people around me as individuals that I interact with. I treat everyone with the same respect until they give me reason not to.
But according to you I am sexist!?
According to that definition you're a feminist whether you like it or not.
if you keep leaning left any further you're gonna fall off your perch buddy :D
feminism wants to assert its will and its beliefs onto others, so no there is no way I could ever be considered a feminist.
A Feminist is literally someone who believes in gender equality. Nothing more.
It may have morphed into something more ugly as you suggest, which is why I said it really needs a new name, because that ain’t feminism - feminazi is a common term for what I earlier called ‘Internet feminism’.
But I’m talking purely definition here. So it is black and white.
You’re either a feminist, because you believe in gender equality, or you’re sexist because you don’t believe in gender equality.
Whether you want to go around calling yourself a feminist or not is a different matter. If you’d rather not associate with that word, that doesn’t make you sexist. In fact, I’m the same. As was said above it’s turned into a real negative word, because of those people/feminazis who push their beliefs onto others and call it feminism (it’s not).
Genders may be equal under the law but thats about it. Men and women are quite different in a lot of ways. Different need not be good or bad, just different and there's nowt wrong with difference, celebrate it.
I don't believe in this equality stuff as it is all so abstract and subjective: IMO People are not all equal, that is why some sit in the gutter begging and others are lording in up with hookers in fancy hotels.
This obsession with making everyone equal flies in the face of the laws of nature, Like I said the best we can hope for is for people to all be equal under the law, the rest is all about doing the best you can with what you have.
No, because even if that is the case there are always exceptions.
