The USFG caused the Great depression. More specifically FDR.
Oh right, and capitalism had NOTHING to do with the Depression. At all.
The South WASN'T actually racist. Nope, they had Jesus on their side too. Also, you gave up your vacations in Cuba, you Yankee bastards.
Conservatives are the only real Americans! Everyone else is a dirty communist spy!
If you question the Bible, you question liberty and tolerance and reason.
Roman history is EXACTLY the same as US history. Also, the Middle Ages were the Age of Reason.
The Founding Fathers were conservatives. And totally supported the South in the Civil War, even though they were dead.
Evolution never happened!
And, of course... The US should be a Christian theocracy with slaves.
Well said, it's all very true. Choice feminism / liberal feminism / third wave feminism is basically just a wolf in sheep's clothes. It isn't actually feminism at all, in fact, I believe it's just a backlash that is extremely effective as it cleverly and deliberately coopts the language of second wave / actual feminism.
One recent example is this nauseating thread on r/Documentaries about Hot Girls Wanted. (Please do not vote, comment or otherwise participate in the linked thread or do anything that could be considered brigading). All of the misogynistic males were defending their consuming porn that clearly harms women by appealing to "agency" "choice" and " empowerment". Cooption is really the best way to suppress any movement. If you can convince women that slavery is indeed freedom, then why would they ever petition for freedom? It's downright Orwellian, really. It's truly so obvious a tactic, it's a bit surprising that so many women have fallen for it but that's the way it is.
There's a good book about the failures of choice feminism called The Freedom Fallacy
There's also this wonderful article in the Onion that predicted the sorry fucking state of "liberal feminism" today.
I agree the word is tarnished. I just wrote a little monograph called
Freedom Feminism in which I tried to rescue the term from the hardliners. http://www.amazon.com/Freedom-Feminism-Surprising-History-Capitalism/dp/0844772623
However, the term may be unsalvageable. Most women and certainly men reject the label. It's associated in the public mind with male-bashing and humorlessness. So maybe we do need a new word, but I'm not sure what it should be. I, too, welcome suggestions!
I have to admit, my favorite part was where this self-professed savior of feminism confided in her peons:

Lol, less than four months after her book is published, Sommers' gives up on feminism! (mark you calendars)
That's pretty unhelpful criticism. Some concepts are difficult for the ELI5 mode and take a whole wack of time to formulate.
Why not read/recommend a book like this instead: https://www.amazon.com/Introducing-Feminism-Graphic-Cathia-Jenainati/dp/1848311214/
>She wasn't making up her assault [because] She has a blog and has been involved in activism pertaining to SlutWalk longer than the rest of the group has been.
Sorry, the reason you gave is unrelated to your premise. The fact that she has a blog and been involved in activism is irrelevant to whether she made up the assault or not—it may even make it more likely she is making it up, in order to fit into the feminist group. One instance of that was described in Katie Roiphe's book: http://www.amazon.ca/Morning-After-Sex-Fear-Feminism/dp/0316754323
Just did a quick search for "Fifty shades of..." on Amazon and found these:
Fifty Sheds of GreyEDIT: Did notice that it actually said "a parody" (very subtle) on the coverAll with a similar tonality to their cover, and all fail to mention that they're a parody or similar.
EDIT: All this on the first four pages (of 20)
Introducing Feminism: A Graphic Guide
Well, to be fair... if the book was expensive.
"I finally broke down and bought the Cadillac I always wanted."
"I finally broke down and went to that $50 a meal restraunt."
"I finally broke down and bought that expensive video game."
It's fairly normal speech. https://www.amazon.com/Female-Erasure-Gender-Politics-Rights/dp/0997146702 but it's only $25 so unless she's poor...
Define objective. I suspect that anyone reading an overly negative or overly positive conclusion will likely be dismissed by their critics as partisan.
I personally like the book Professing Feminism: Education and Indoctrination in Women's Studies - which tries in part to look at job postings, class syllabi, department websites, etc. so even if you don't like their analysis that might be another way to explore the topic. (Beware, of course, of the potential for weaponized words).
You're funny.
You realize that, in one sentence, you deny that you were calling all feminist morons, and the, at the end, you imply that all feminists are anti-man. This is the same sort of ad hominem fallacy you've already made, and you need to back up these universal assertions with sufficient evidence! You've just exchanged one dubious universal claim with another. Quite irrational, to be honest.
You've also oversimplified the issue into a simple "pro vs. anti" dualism that doesn't do justice to the debate at all. Do you think there is only one "brand" of feminism? The past 100 years of feminist thought have been all about discussing just what feminism is and should be. Read a book. Here's one you can start with. Easy read, good summary of the whole feminist discussion up until about 1989.
I can just hear your response, now. "No, I'm not gonna even take a look at any of your 'so-called' feminist shit! Propaganda, propaganda!!!"
You need to learn to take a little criticism, and learn to engage calmly and rationally, without sensationalizing an issue and turning a sarcastic retort (the video you originally posted) into something it really isn't. What, do you think the response to the commercial is some sort of feminist manifesto? It was meant to be humorous, and for me, it succeeded in being so; the looks on those women's faces screamed "you've got to be kidding me," as if they were watching the original commercial. I giggled.
Every single "person with similar views as nolimitsoldier" I have encountered has always fallen into 1 of the following groups.

Hi! Former Studies in Women and Gender (SWAG) major here. I absolutely loathed the first class I took and thought it was a bunch of bullshit. Fast forward to present day - I ended up doing SWAG as a double major with sociology, started working in a hospital setting, now work as an RN, and proudly call myself a feminist (as my username suggests). I would highly, highly recommend it to anyone who wants to expand their horizons and critical thinking skills. Although I'm now a nurse working on a graduate degree, I find that I use the skills I gained in that curriculum every day.
To answer your questions more specifically:
-Women's studies can lead to a lot of different career fields (social work, nursing, counseling, academic tracks, etc.) but I think it is probably best to double major and pair it with another, more vocational degree if possible. Ultimately, it can be tough to find a job with ANY liberal arts degree, so you have to take care of yourself while you pursue your interests academically.
If I may recommend a further reading - Feminist Thought by Rosemarie Tong completely changed my worldview and helped me understand feminism and why I identify myself as a feminist. It's available used for $5 on Amazon. :)

For the record, the definition I posted comes from an anti-trans source, but defines gender and sex in the original radical feminist terms, which distinguish between sex and gender, so the things you posted would be parts of being female (sex), as opposed to a woman (gender). I agree they're usually synonymous and I understand why people would see it that way, but there are some feminists who thought it was worthwhile to make a distinction
Feminists are pretty much the only ones addressing those problems. Stiffed is the seminal work on the subject. Yes, it's a feminist book that's all about how men suffer in society. That's one of the many things feminists care about and work against.
"Men's Rights" organizations on the other hand, tend to be about men's "right" to harass women and earn more money than them.

This book of Phyllis Schlafly essays might be an interesting read. Camille Paglia is also good for a critique of modern (starting in the 70s modern) feminism. Neither are a male perspective (obviously) but a good source for why feminism has always been a problem. We tend to think that they did a lot of good before now, but I believe that is simply awareness, and spin, rather than necessarily truth.
Who does that?
...
Oh wait, you mean that you are doing that to her. She's a feminist and you are talking about how she's wrong. Hypocrisy much?
Here is the mobile version of your link
Freedom Fallacy: The Limits of Liberal Feminism is an anthology that came out last year.
Paid For: My Journey through Prostitution by Rachel Moran is a memoir plus radical feminist analysis of the sex industry. This book came out in the US but was also published a few years before.
Misogyny Reloaded by Abigail Bray came out in 2014.
I can totally see where that would be tough. It's also hard to discuss feminism in terms of waves anymore because like art movements, it doesn't exist as distinctly as it once did.
Once upon a time back in 1900 when the world seemed exclusively focused in western culture (I.e. western Europe including England and north american) it was easy to define and capture movements and assign traits.
Thanks to modern developments feminism moves swiftly, and is in different levels world wide. Is first wave feminism still happening in places where women are fighting for the right to vote? Or are they considered latter wave feminism because the rest of western culture have moved past first wave.
Also there are so many more books published now, once upon a time there were one or two basic text and everyone would look to those books to agree upon what makes up first, second or third waves feminism. Academics disagree about these definitions all the time now and publish those thoughts. Unlike science (where there are some disagreements also but mostly they can agree to the facts) the humanities do take opinion into account (their own and the people they research).
One researcher can claim stripping is liberating, another that it's oppression. Both would have great points, both would have supporters and both would related to many strippers. Like many research area's feminism lies in a grey area. Most questions have no yes or no, just good ideas worth discussion. Which can be frustrating, but also liberating in a way.
If you want a small affordable text on the subject check this one out. It's also illustrated, and I believe sourced at the end (from what I remember, don't quote me) so you can do your own research into subjects a little deeper.
You are so welcome and I am grateful for your response as well. It is hard to find likeminded women who are women centered. I am only in my mid 30s and was raised by a father who gaslit me constantly for my entire development so I fell for it really hard when it came back around in the form of transactivism. It took me five years of floundering around, miserable and hating myself to the point of being 'nonbinary' then reading older feminist works and talking to some other women online who shared the other political beliefs I had (which now fall under the umbrella of radical feminism, apparently wanting to live your life free from male violence is radical) for me to wake up. That was only a year ago.
​
I just finished reading the book Female Erasure edited by Ruth Barrett (which I guess I mentioned in the original post but literally spent all day reading the last third so it's fresh in my mind) and it gave me the kind of true understanding of all this in a cohesive and compassionate way that galvanized me to keep speaking up and out about it all. It truly is a war on women and girls paralleled only by the Right's continual version of the war on women and girls they have been perpetuating for generations. Unfortunately, both are being ignored or wrongly defined by the only people who've ever historically done anything at all for us, and it will take a lot to resist this. I found this book to be an excellent starting point. I wish I could hand out copies to everyone I know. You may find some solidarity there. It covers a lot of history I was not around to experience, as well as a lot of what is going on today from the very lives of the women who are the victims of this religion.

Totally agree about the climate change thing. I've started using that as my go to comparison. It pisses people off but it's perfect.

100% agree with the bell hooks recommendation.
I recently read The Equality Illusion which gives a good insight to how far we have yet to come. However, it's very focused on the UK / Western Europe and might be better for young adults / late teens.
probably a good idea to go on amazon, look up authors that have written on this topic (erin pizzey, esther vilar, christina hoff sommers, etc), and find similar recommendations on those pages that were released after 2012.

The statistics of the original 1:4 or the review about the statistics?
This is one I came across recently but as far back as the 90's the 1:4 have known to be well.. bullshit. I don't think there is a more appropriate terminology to describe it. This is a good example of early alarm bells by sain feminism. Second hand from the low low price of $0.01 apparantly. You have to wonder why 20 years later a large proportion of feminism are still presenting these numbers as fact. I personally believe this is where a lot of false allegations stem from.
My point is that men and women with the same qualifications working at the same job do not get paid different amounts; to do so would be grounds for a sexual discrimination lawsuit.
A little thought experiment. Suppose it were acceptable to only pay a woman 75% of what you would pay a man for the exact same job (or whatever number the lunatic feminists (sorry, redundant) are spouting this week). The CEO of a large corporation has just been fired, for failing to bring in a large enough profit for his shareholders. YOU are made the new CEO. What is the first thing you do?
The first thing I would do is to fire all of the men, and replace them with women, increasing profit margins by 25%. All other companies would do the same, and no man would be able to get a job anywhere unless he was willing to work for the same rate as women were making.
The same thing would happen if men were paid less for doing the exact same job. Market forces even out. Supply and demand. It's called capitalism.
>a lot of hate in your heart.
Remember, hate bounces.
Yes, Phyllis Schafly is a personal heroine of mine. There are not many women I respect, but she is one of them. I have her book Feminist Fantasies, and it is fantastic. I would suggest you read it before passing judgement on her.
Otto Weininger was a genius. Read his book Sex and Character and learn for yourself.
>It contains deep and mysterious truths of the human condition, harsh and shocking truths about the mind and soul.
I have heard good things about it (this has been years ago) but have never read it myself. Amazon.com reviews seem pretty mixed: http://www.amazon.com/Stiffed-The-Betrayal-American-Man/product-reviews/B000H2M9Y6/ref=dp_db_cm_cr_acr_txt?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1 You could always check it out from the library and read a chapter or two - no money lost if you don't like it, and only a little bit of time.
I'm trying to unpack all of the compounded errors in what you are saying. First, a "strawman" is not a person. A strawman, hypothetical or not, cannot say anything. You might say the claim that entire campuses are supposed to be safe spaces is a strawman, or a strawman argument.
Second, while you refer to outliers, it is actually not uncommon for "safe spaces" extend much beyond that. For example, the Safe Spaces program at Carleton University in Ottawa, Ontario extends to frosh week (first week of new students) and even extends its powers to students holding off-campus events protesting the Safe Space program. It's quite Orwellian to have something called as "safe space" reach off-campus, shut up protests against them, and force these students to apologize. In particular, it's "safe space" is not merely a unit, club, or limited space, but a campus-wide and off-campus policy. From the last link above:
> The Carleton University Students’ Association initially said it would abide by the university’s safe space policy. “We would like to make it unequivocally clear that this is an unacceptable message for Carleton students to promote whether on or off-campus as it does not accurately reflect the atmosphere within the Carleton University community,” it later said.
This is shameful for a university, and certainly no strawman.
As to what people generally mean about the absurdity of safe spaces, the above sort of behaviour is one, but the more famous ones include Brown and Oberlin. At Brown, there was a debate on the topic of rape culture, and activists tried to have it shut down (rather than simply not attend). To deal with the "trauma" of having an intellectual debate on campus, they created a safe space "equipped with cookies, coloring books, bubbles, Play-Doh, calming music, pillows, blankets and a video of frolicking puppies, as well as students and staff members trained to deal with trauma." It's quite literally a daycare for adults. It's a coddling, infantilizing space, and highly inappropriate for a university.
At Oberlin (and Georgetown), Christina Hoff Sommers gave speeches about Freedom Feminism. Safe spaces were created for people "triggered" by her speech, and the people creating the safe spaces were, in fact, engaged in massive bullying and smearing, accusing Sommers of things that weren't true, spreading hatred about her, and being extremely anti-male.
You refer to "not inviting racists to college campuses", but of course that is more of the smearing. These people aren't trying to keep racists from campus, they are smearing anybody who disagrees with their views with all sorts of name calling. Sommers at Oberlin, Warren Farrell at University of Toronto (watch it all the way through), and even Milo Yiannopolous at Berkeley. None of these are racists and their detractors were vicious, violent, and smearing of them. This is the state of safe spaces and those who promote them. It's a cult. Even members who have left the movement admit that it's very cultish.
I love Equality Illusion: The Truth about Women and Men Today by Kat Banyard.
The book discusses many studies to try and bring answers to questions like why do women have a harder time negotiating a raise (answer: a women who asks for a raise is seen as hard, vindictive, a "bitch"...), why are women more risk adverse (little boys are encouraged to take risks like not backing out of going on the tallest slide wile girls are told to mind their dress) or more patient (baby boys are picked up by their parents much faster than baby girls when they cry, two out of three times teachers will ask a boy to provide an answer to a question instead of a girl)...
It's my go-to book when I hear comments like "women are more X".

Como já te disseram, eu também não conheço muita gente que odeia os direitos mulheres, mas conheço muita gente que odeia o feminismo moderno, e são coisas infelizmente completamente diferentes. Recomendo a leitura deste livrinho Who Stole Feminism?, que explica como é que um movimento que inicialmente tinha boas intenções se destruiu a si mesmo. Mais recentemente, o documentários "The Red Pill" também explora o mesmo tema, mas de outra perspectiva.
Tanto online como offline toda a gente que procure sabe onde me situo nestas brincadeiras. Eu admito que ainda haja opressão contra as mulheres em vários campos, sobretudo socialmente, mas também existe contra o sexo masculino, não há exclusividades.
E a verdade é que não há ninguém a lutar pela igualdade. O movimento feminista diz que sim, que estão a lutar por todos, ainda estou para ver uma medida pela que lutem da qual não beneficiem diretamente. E essa conversa do "Sim, tu és homem/mulher/preto/branco, mas eu é que sei o que é melhor para ti" enjoa. E o movimento dos direitos dos homens é basicamente um movimento anti-feminista mas que não faz nada produtivo tirando ser do contra.
Em relação ao pessoal LGBT, para mim é para o lado que durmo melhor. Não me afectam minimamente, façam o que entenderem. Vivam e deixem viver, não me cabe a mim dizer-lhes como viver a vida deles.
Isto é um assunto extremamente tóxico, nota-se pelo teu comentário, e isso para mim representa a carga tóxica que existe dos extremos. Faz falta um terceiro movimento, mais hippie, realmente igualitário e que saiba lutar por si sem estar sempre a insultar este e aquele. Um movimento que não catalogue as pessoas por raça ou gênero ou ideologia mas que parta de um respeito básico dado a todo o ser humano.
Estou feliz que finalmente a comunidade "SJW" e a "anti-SJW" começam a abrir as portas ao diálogo. São as duas igualmente más.
EDIT: Downvotes sem argumentos só provam tudo o que disse. Demonstram incapacidade em ter discussões lógicas.

>What qualifications do I need, exactly, to be able to express my potentially wrong opinions so that I may receive an educated reply?
You did not express opinions. You made statements of fact that were not only wrong, but idiotic on their face. You admitted that you were ignorant about the thing you were discussing, yet kept criticizing it as though you knew anything about it. It is not my job to hold your hand and cradle your precious feelings and gently explain to you why you're completely wrong about everything you say.
>Or is asking that question another no-no because apparently you're well-versed on the subject yet for some reason refuse to even give a subtle hint like an author's name or a specific movement I could look up.
I didn't bother because I don't believe you're here in good faith. I've seen the shit you post on TiA and its obvious that you don't actually care about social justice. It's not hard to project some "Red Piller bullshit" on you when you fucking act like one.
If you're actually interested in learning, I had this textbook for a couple classes during college. It had a bunch of different articles from a lot of perspectives on the issue of gender discrimination, and I found it very interesting. I'm sure you can find a copy online that you don't need to pay 63 dollars for. If you want a book by one person, rather than an anthology, I found The Equality Illusion to be pretty informative and easy to read, and it was published recently. The author addresses very well why there's discrimination, why it's a bad thing, and what specifically should be done about it, all of the things you ignorantly accuse feminism of not doing.
I somehow doubt that you're going to actually go and read those books, but that's okay, because there are lots of feminist blogs you can start reading and get educated. I like Feminist Frequency, though I dunno if you're one of those people who goes into a spitting rage at the sight of Anita Sarkeesian's face. Skepchick is a great skepticism/feminism blog run by another villain of the anti-feminist internet crowd, Rebecca Watson.
And of course, if you take 5 seconds to Google the issue, and read what feminists have to say about it, you'll find plenty more.
Exactly. I've read a few of Sommers' books. She's an accredited authority with real sources (eg, US Dept. of Labor reports vs the $.70 to $1 claim). She's a feminist from the second wave, with high credentials. Her opponents are railing teens. When I first read Freedom Feminism I thought: Finally! Evidence and reason, an embracing of real feminism and a clear path forward. Radfems will attack obvious targets (#Gamergate) to expose misogyny for gain, but if they try to target such a reasonable authority as Sommers, the outcome will be actual education on their part.
I was mistaken. They don't care about facts, logic, or reason. They're impervious to such things. I'm losing hope, I really am - the uneducated are getting press all over the web, and on sites I'd previously respected; while educated authorities like Sommers are getting burned at the stake. Idiocracy, thou prophet.
(Incidentally, my favorite of hers is One Nation Under Therapy)
These are both great.

-Sa presupunem ca avem domnul Y profesor la liceul ICHB.
-Sa presupunem ca avem doamna X profesor la liceul Pantelimon.
Nu stim date despre ce materie predau, nu stim numarul de ore, stim doar ca in medie doamna X face mai putin bani decat domnul Y, in baza acestei metodologii putem generaliza si la alte locuri de munca.

Faptul ca faci un Strawman acum si vii la mine cu o atitudine moral superioara de singurul pastrator tainic al adevarului si chiar faci o comparatie intre mine si Olivia Steer si miscarea de retarzi antivaccin este oarecum tragica.

Niste good reads : 1 2 3
Again sunt foarte putine studii pe tema asta si in stiinta avem niste lucruri numite meta-reviews care evalueaza cat adevar se afla in o idee. Sunt foarte putine studii care spun de existenta unui pay-gap.
Again sunt foarte sceptic ca 2 oameni cu aceleasi calificari si pe acelasi post sunt platiti diferit la o scara larga.
Ca o concluzie, personala, sa spui ca diferenta dintre genuri in cat sunt platiti se datoreaza unui misoginism al angajatorilor este o grava simplificare care nu tine cont de realitate.
