What's the general consensus on feminism here?

[UncleBourbon]

Are any of you familiar with the "manosphere"?

[nessuno]

The feminist movement has resulted in less quality of life for women and men.

[Yehudayaakov]

it's a tool for destroying Israel and the west outside the west noone never heard!

For the most part feminism seems to be really destructive.

There are some ideas that feminism discusses which were good but that's the problem with a lot of destructive things. They will throw some good stuff in with the poison in order to get you to take it.

I'm happy to be able to vote, not be forced into an unwanted marriage, etc.

On the other hand feminists seem to care very little about women and girls in truth. They don't care about baby girls (or boys) murdered through abortion. They won't condemn Islam and all its horrible abuses against women from honor killing, genital mutilation, denying women basic rights, etc. They would rather stand up for the so-called rights of men to go into women's restrooms than to stand up for the safety of real, actual women in those places.

While I do think that women's rights is an important issue, feminism in many ways is at odds with that.

Feminism is Nazism and the so-called "manosphere" is the male version of feminism. So, do the math folks.

How so?

[Lewinsky Stinks, Dr. Brennan Rocks]

Ahem, have you read what it says?

[UncleBourbon]

Yes. They promote traditional roles for men and women. That's something feminists want to get rid of.

[Lewinsky Stinks, Dr. Brennan Rocks]

Yes. They promote traditional roles for men and women. That's something feminists want to get rid of.

"Women are all scum of the earth. Women are all sluts, it's just a matter of what their individual threshold is. Sluts are bad but it's okay for men to bang sluts all they want. Women are all out to screw men over in favor of one who is more alpha. All women are used-up and worthless after age 30. If you are a cocky alpha male bad boy you can get laid all you want. All your problems can go away if you act more alpha." Does this sound like a rational, logical worldview or does this sound like some kind of loony cult? You can't seriously say it's the former and be a legitimate JTFer.

Also, last but not least, most if not all of the manospherians are WN anti-Semites. I can think of four big ones that are right off the bat.

Most of us JTF'ers are right wingers.  So we're no fans of feminism.  Gender is *not* a social construct.  Men and women *are* different.  But that doesn't mean one gender is better than the other. 

In terms of the manosphere, there are blogs that teach men how to be more "alpha" so as to hook up with as many attractive women as possible.  On the other hand, the authors, and their readers are rabid misogynists.  They deride women for not settling down and marrying as young as possible.  Yet if all women did that, then who would these men sleep around with?  Where would they find young girls to sleep with?  On a school bus?

And just Lewinsky posted, they believe women above age 25 or 30 are useless and dried up.  They condone hitting women.  Many of their readers are rabid white nationalists.  I remember once reading a thread about beautiful Jewish women.  One of the commenter wrote that the Russian Jews should have thanked the cossacks for raping their women since their female descendants have turned into beautiful young women. 

Some of the people commenting who are not out right white nationalists have even written about possibly converting to Islam.  They like the fact that Islam allows them to do whatever they want when it comes to women.

Thanks Lisa.

Men and women are equal but different. Women have women powers and men have men powers and not vice versa. That's the Jewish perspective in a nutshell.

I agree.

Sounds good from a Christian perspective too.
