was literally asked this today.
i understand the upbringing of some people, but i weep for the posibilities of them having daughters, and even worse, sons who will be raised like this
I played Deap Valley's "Smile More" at work, a song that includes the line "Yes I am a feminist," and it shocked and upset a number of my coworkers, several of whom are women.
Really incredible how effective the anti-feminist smear campaign over the decades has been. It's convinced people to work against their own self-interests.
That is absolutely not the retort you want to go with. They revel in that shit.
When I see women sharing shit from FB pages like "Women Against Feminism" and "Feminism is Cancer" I want to scream.you know what is worse, women to go along with these dudes just for validation, just for being "one of the guys!"
its like >_>

.toxic masculinity and machoism was a mistake

Please tell me you mansplained to them why they're wrong and that they're being shitty feminists.
That's some prime out-group homogeneity.Anytime a guy does something like this just imply that he has a small penis and he wont be able to handle it.

Yup, people like the guy the OP posted about are pathetic and ignorant.toxic masculinity and machoism was a mistake

This. People who automaticaly believe any hint of feminity or empathy toward women is something to be ashamed of are straight up bigots. Sexist and homophobic and completely oblivious to those facts. Whoever told you that OP is someone you should end association with because they let you know blatantly that they're scum.
A lot of people don't see feminism as advocating for equability between genders, or a framework to critique society. They see is as almost a kind of religion, with its own doctrine, dogma, and idols. It's how they can say "I'm against sex discrimination but I'm not a feminist." It's the same as "I believe in a higher power but I'm not religious."I played Deap Valley's "Smile More" at work, a song that includes the line "Yes I am a feminist," and it shocked and upset a number of my coworkers, several of whom are women.

That's just the new face. Before that it was the image of a bra burning, butch looking, man hating lesbian.I've observed this behavior irl from classmates back in college. Whenever these people hear the word Feminism they immediately associate it with "colored haired, man-hating women that want to #killallmen" rather than actual Feminism. I feel like the word got warped/associated with the wrong group of individuals in the last few years.

The thing is, that group pretty much doesn't exist. It's a boogeyman boosted by anti-feminists to try and discredit them.I've observed this behavior irl from classmates back in college.

Must be dumb anti-feminist statement day because today at work my coworkers were buzzing around some story about a woman who "Aborted her child because he was gonna be a boy", when i mentioned that it sounded like a made up BS story they all went like "It must be true, you know the feminists of today are crazy!!"
They swear it's easier to believe a "crazy feminist" would abort their baby boy rather than believing this was some made up sensationalist bullshit.
btw I know you will understand when i tell you he didnt say "gay" he said "joto" lol
Because I like women, don't you? Are you gay or something?
galaxy brained
Of course they did.
Someone going for that kind of insult wouldn't do less, lol.
A wonder they didn't go all out with "Puto".
I did something like this once on a friend's brother who told me i was gay because i kept picking female characters in a fighting game (Bloody Roar), so i was like "I pick girls because i like girls, you picked a big burly wolf guy, what does that mean?"
Next time we played he started picking girl characters.
double down and start playing Kamikaze Girls and Petrol Girls. Great bands, very angry feminists.
