Misunderstanding The Principles Of Feminism by Nobody: 6:22pm On Jan 29, 2021
I came across this post on Instagram... I think it's very wrong. Not entirely, but there is a common mistake where certain feminists attribute the choices other women make to "marginalisation".

Firstly, I'm a woman who believes in gender equality. No one is superior as a result of their race, nationality, gender, religious beliefs, age/position, etc...

But "Girl Power" isn't about prioritising ones career and goals over having kids and building a successful family... Feminism has to do with giving women the opportunity and freedom to make choices that would favour them as individuals!

If a woman chooses to be a full-time housewife, then she's equal to and powerful as a female CEO of a multimillion dollar company...

It's all about CHOSING, not the CHOICES.

Women and Men can never be equal , stop with these Egalitarianistic-Equalistic narrative, equality is a myth, you can't have it both ways, either you prioritize family or career, women wanting to embrace masculinity and kill their feminity will prioritize career, which makes them caricatures of the masculine, a copy , not the real thing, Feminism is against traditional roles in the society, encouraging women to behave like men


I'm not against equality of opportunities of men and women,but I'm against feminism expecting equality in outcomes

[/s] Did you get the point? Others didn't, can't believe you wouldn't too. undecided

Firstly, feminism has nothing to do with the choices women make...but fighting for women's right to freely make them...


If a woman makes her career a priority, great!
If a woman makes her family (husband and children) a priority, great!

As long as she chooses what would make her happy ..

A woman being a CEO doesn't guarantee happiness, neither does it make her superior to a woman who is a dedicated wife and mother...

It's all about women being who they are.. doing what they want and not being limited by gender roles ..

Being a housewife shouldn't be a 'must'... But some feminist take it too far and criticise women who chose the aforementioned... It's their choice!

Being a feminist has nothing to do with forsaking individual values...

If a woman wants to love her husband and children, she's perfect and powerful!
If a woman wants to be a successful entrepreneur, she's perfect and powerful!
If a woman wants to be both? She's equally perfect and powerful! kiss

Feminism is UNAFRICAN and a man who falls for it shouldn't only be stripped off of his manhood responsibilities but also be reminded that a time will come for him when an ordinary doormat will be more cherished than him...

Your argument is not feasible because mordern Feminism is not like these,and even though it's feasible, a woman following her career path without marriage and family has chosen the path of the masculine,even though she succeeds at what cost, childlessness, she follows her ambition and destroys her feminity as she must embrace masculine traits like, aggression, confidence, disagreeness,dominance , even at sucess,she is still remember as a childless woman without family of her own , leaving her true natural path of motherhood and becoming a caricature, a mimic of the masculine, which in her feminine body and suppressed feminine attributes she fails to wholely represent

Then what's her gain?

Have you come across boys raised in the midst of females? Are they feminine?

If nature and NURTURE make u who we are, and both can be altered... what the heck is masculinity or feminity?

Men are emotional but taught not to be expressive... Change that, and men would exhibit the same qualities you regard to be FEMININE.

Men can become fully functional women... With the resolve and money, you can have a vagina... grin



The bottom line is that these qualities aren't fixed... If not, male homosexuals would be feminine and there wouldn't be masculine lesbians...

Gender equality will alter the balance of the world as women aren't their best with power as recent demonstrations has shown and power is meant for one more logical and less emotional. Women are more emotional and are bound to take decisions based on emotions which is bad for any race, tribe, region or people. We have so many arrogant female bosses everywhere. We also have many madams abusing their maids. It's hard for a woman to behave when you place a crown on her head. Her decisions are most likely to be selfish and unreasonable. This factor is why gender equality will forever remain a child's play.

I'm not a misogynist.

Good morning
You sound like a progressive who believes in social sciences via social re-engineering and social construction, I believe in real science , biological facts

Men and women are fundamentally different from an evolutionary, Biologically,and psychologically point of view

Men are drawn to things that's why we are engineers and women to people that's why they are nurses

Men and women have the same cognitive ability , no difference in brain function , but women are subjected to mood swings during ovulation which affects their thinking via hormones released , these doesn't apply to men

Everyone is emotional, but men have far more greater capacity to apply logic than women can due to the Solipsisitic nature of women who process thoughts via what they feel is right,and not what facts states,if it doesn't affect a woman on a personal level,your argument against her is not credible even with statistical evidence,also women practice dissociation to justify their irrationality

Women in general lack intellectual curiosity and the ability for open minded analysis, due to their Solipsisitic innate nature, even the ones with high IQ and the matured ones, they rarely engage in critical thinking on their own,they are conditioned via education to memorize data, and talk about it, giving them the appearance of intelligence, but they aren't if not these mordern age we will have so many female inventors

Women are very good at rationalizing feelings, via rationalization hamsters,and giving them plausible deniability, when you take them on surface, but with critical analysis their arguments are not sustainable

Homosexuals and Transgenders are biological deviations from an evolutionary point of view, I don't consider them in my statistical analysis because they are going against their biology (nature), they can't reproduce, so how can they sustain civilization,if a culture is homosexualized,that culture is doomed, they are an abberation,an abnormality,they need psychiatric evaluation and assistance

I'm not against you pursuing your career or dreams , but not at the expense of your innate feminity, which most sacrifice , career can guarantee success but not happiness, most people working jobs (pursuing careers)are used labor for the corporate elites who are profiting at their expense, men and women included, why would I advise a woman to leave the comfort of her household where her feminine traditional roles is most effective in keeping the house in order and raising children , and she's in charge,and go and work for her boss where she's stressed, experience competition,she's used , for how much, climbing career ladder to what end, aging at a faster rate due to stress and fatigue.

Egalitarianistic-Equalism ideologies wants to re-construct society to make women embrace the traditional masculine path of career at the expense of not having children and families

Scandanavian countries like Norway, Denmark, Iceland who have used these ideologies via quota policies and affirmative actions for women are even seeing wider differences between males and females , which is wider than traditional societies in Africa, going against what they thought, hence destroying the possibility of gender equality
