I’ve been a bit vocal lately on how feminism negatively affects men and fathers and encourages them to behave in ways that ultimately undermine themselves, women and relationships. In the interest of fairness and equality, today I would like to point out how feminism insults and demeans women. Feminists claim to represent and promote the interests of women, but if you scratch the surface, you’ll find that feminism embraces a streak of misogyny to make the ancient patriarchs green with envy. Here are six ways that feminism insults, belittles and demeans the women it is supposedly supporting and encouraging. 1. Yes Means Yes The new Yes Means Yes affirmative consent law in California achieves a few astonishing feats: it turns normal, consensual sex into rape and it strips the accused of due process by requiring confirmation of consent at all stages of sexual encounters. Consent must be enthusiastic, ongoing and affirmed. Not only does this turn sex into a decidedly unsexy, legally fraught encounter, but it also implicitly requires men to obtain consent from women and not the other way around. I have yet to have a feminist give me a clear answer to one simple question: “I have never, ever once requested permission from a man to have sex with him—am I a rapist?” What underlies the whole affirmative consent program is the idea that women are emotionally crippled, fearful, insecure and immature weaklings who cannot possibly make their thoughts and desires clearly known to adult partners. Feminist laws about consent turn grown women into slobbering, babbling toddlers who must be interrogated at every stage of the game to see what their thoughts might be, rather like trying to figure out which underpants your two-year-old wants to wear when he has forgotten the words “Incredible Hulk.” My, how empowering. No thanks.

The author did not write that article with objectivity.

But then, I do not hold it against her; most people don't support their points with objectivity

Feminists and anti-feminists alike.

well, i think she was fair on a number of issues. Care to outline where you think she wasn't fair?

I cannot relate to what she said; it seems pulled out of thin air and exaggerated to make her points.

If you do not like feminists, why don't you just avoid them. Why you dey carry thier matter for head

well then its ok. You don't have to agree with everyone.

So now saying that you have to make sure your partner is interested before having sex is unsexy? Wtf is unsexy about having your babe go 'god yes' in response to 'can I kiss you?" Or "f*ck you're really turning me on" or hell, "I brought condoms". How uncreative can people get?


also, active consent doesn't just fall on guy's shoulders. Lesbians exist, as do gay men and bisexuals, and Hot women. All that good stuff.

If someone is harassing you sexually by kissing you inappropriately or whatever, sound the person a sound slap and get out of there immediately.

Note: dont do this with hardened touts oh, or in a dangerous situation.

weigh your options.
