    As all the popular things, feminism was pretty fucking great up until a certain point. Then it became a parody of itself.

    I’m on the side of every woman still struggling in a man-made world. For every “feminist” of the vengeful variety I have nothing but disgust.

      Those types of misandrist feminists have always existed

        Yeah but now that women live on an equal footing, feminism’s energy comes more from these people than it did before.

        When there was justice to be sought, plenty of the movement’s energy could come from love.

          I mean, there still is justice to be sought. It’s just that now what’s left is REALLY hard to change (women’s rights outside the first world, prejudices, internalized misogyny etc.), and so an increasingly big amount of feminists focus on bringing men down because that’s easier.
