The Hypocrisy of Feminists (Generally Speaking)

The reason I included 'generally' in this title is because I have met and/or spoken to feminists who fall outside of this generalization, and am aware that there are exceptions to the rule. So yes, in a sense, I'm saying "#NotAllFeminists" here. This is out of respect for the feminists that have earned my respect.

That being said, by and large, the majority of feminists have yet to do this. The majority of feminists have become a toxic, cancerous plague upon society and social networks. Their hypocrisy knows no bounds. They claim they want equality, and turn around and complain at NDAA because they 'don't want equality like that.'  Or complain about women that are against feminism. Well, let me tell you something.

Just because there are people - male and female alike - against feminism doesn't mean they are against equality. Feminism is NOT for equality, and I don't care what dictionary definition you regurgitate, actions speak louder than words, and the feminist majority has spread nothing but misandry, racism (prejudice against white people IS STILL RACISM BY DEFINITION), misogyny, hate against CIS and straight people and even transphobia - namely against transwomen. Feminism has even excluded men from identifying as proper feminists - they can only be feminist allies. Then there's the whole "he for she" thing; feminism is all about promoting strong and independent women, yet it turns around and asks men for help? What?

If a person - especially a woman - states they are against feminism, they are bullied, they are harassed, they are threatened and mocked and belittled. They're insulted and told they should be raped, or beaten, or that they shouldn't have uteruses and aren't real women. I have faced so much bullshit because I identify as an egalitarian rather than a feminist, and truthfully, I've faced quite a lot of misogyny as well. Feminism claims to be against misogyny yet the very people who identify as feminists are throwing it around left and right! It's as though they feel women are only entitled to their opinions and rights if they identify as feminists and agree with the feminist ideology and dogma.  That isn't equality. That isn't equal rights. That's why so many refer to feminists as feminazis. That sort of attitude - agree with us or else - is the very same attitude that drove the Nazi party. Biased propaganda, burning books that disagree with your ideals, harassing and bullying and attacking those that disagree with you, that identify as something differently than you, that challenge your beliefs... Does that sound familiar?

Just because I'm a woman against feminism doesn't mean I'm against equality. It doesn't mean I'm against equal rights. It doesn't mean I'm uneducated or stupid. It means I disagree with the social cancer that is feminism. I am pro-equality; I fight for men and women alike. Men need help in so many areas and feminism has completely ignored that in favor of seeking out female privilege; women have had equal rights to men for many years, and while there were certain areas where they were oppressed, that isn't the case anymore. What you're seeking for "equality" is really just privilege, and trying to change the world to protect your thin skinned ass from anything that may make you even slightly uncomfortable. Well, guess what? The world is full of things that will make you uncomfortable regardless of your gender. Get used to it, and deal with it like a damn adult. Help people that really need it. Look into equal rights for men, look at how they're genuinely oppressed and how the system is legitimately biased against them. Fight for them, if you are really for equality. They need your help, and so do many others.

Stop with the hypocrisy, stop attacking women just because they don't identify as feminists; they aren't your enemy. If you can't co-exist with non-feminists, you aren't for equality; everyone should have the right to their own opinion and ideals, their own choice to how they identify, in an equal society. If you oppress people who differ from you, you aren't for equality; period.

(Language warning) Ranting, Ranting, and more Ranting

I know it's been like, forever, since I've posted anything but a book review. I'm sorry for that, and I'm rectifying that now.

In truth, aside from being utterly exhausted 99% of the time for no damned good reason, which, I'm not sure if it's the chronic fatigue, my heart, or something else entirely, I'm just fucking tired of everything.

Have you guys noticed how much bullshit is everywhere lately? Just absolutely everywhere. People are getting their panties in a bunch over every tiny little thing because the government and the media want them to, so they do! The more the media focuses attention on shit, the more everyone seems to care, and the real issues that actually affect the world as a whole slip by the wayside.

We have the whole gender issues thing - you know, we've been using bathrooms with transgender individuals for decades and nobody fucking knew it, but now that the government and media made a big deal out of it, IT'S SUDDENLY A HUGE DEAL. I've had female, CIS friends verbally accosted by people in or outside of women's restrooms just because they don't fit some other woman's idea of what a woman should "look like."

People just want to use the damn bathroom. "What about the perverts?!" You ask. Well, what about the ones that were already there? The men in the men's room that would molest little boys, or the women - or hiding men - in women's rooms that would molest little girls or women. They've always been there, too. The laws aren't going to change that fact. The truth is, most children that get molested, statistically, are molested by someone they already know - a friend, a family member, a teacher, a church leader, etc. Pay attention to your damn kids, and don't send them to the bathroom alone. Don't worry about who's taking a piss beside you, worry about your own business.

And meanwhile, what about the homeless kids? The starving ones? The ones getting abused in their own homes? I don't hear you speaking up much about them. Hypocrites.

Speak your damn mind. You don't give a shit about the bathroom, you're using it as a mask for prejudice.

Anyway. Aside from that bullshit, there's the constant assaults on religions, on race, hell, even on disabled people - some SJWs are now saying that white disabled people are more privileged and powerful than POC disabled people. Uh, WHAT? Last I checked, disabled is disabled. There's no damn privilege when it comes to fucking disability.

I'm just tired of all of the petty first world problem bullshit. I really am. And honestly, that is exactly what it is. It's all first world problems. The world is going to hell in a handbasket, between wars, water shortages, poverty, climate shifts, etc. But everyone in the first world nations can't see a damn inch from in front of their face, and it's pathetic.

There's too much hate, too many people looking to make problems where there aren't any. Too many people wanting to tear each other apart because APPARENTLY that's more fun than finding common ground and coming together instead.

I used to wonder how the hell Trump managed to get as much support as he did. I don't any more. It's painfully obvious. Hate and prejudice are allowed to roam unchecked and nobody gives a second thought to setting it aside and looking for unity. Well, people, you reap what you sow. It will sicken me if he becomes our next president, but it honestly won't surprise me.
