why are feminist obsessed with Nice guys(TM)

Post Reply New Topic

I think I remember the film...

i'm going to draw a parallel for you, based on what you just said:

it's ok being racist, but there is a time and a place for it.
but when you're with people of colour, keep it to yourself.

are you going to continue to be anti-feminist no matter how many reasonable feminists you encounter?--and if so, is that very reasonable?

It's a reference to the song, right? Man, I grew to hate that song.

The film makes me fall asleep. I dread to think what would happen if I read the story.

I presume he is, as many here are. The original thread question has been answered time and time over, but he insists feminists have it in for Nice Guys because feminists all really love 'alpha' males.

I was joking. It's a song reference.

I also like Audrey Hepburn. Best role IMO was in "Roman Holiday," but her rendition of "Moon River" in "Breakfast at Tiffany's" gets me every time. It's not so much her singing voice, which I love anyway, but her facial expressions in that scene. First fell in love with her in "My Fair Lady" ("Come on, Dovah…move yer bloody ARSE!! !!").

Goes both ways:

She could just as well have written:

"Being an Aryan means having a confident, cool northern deportment. It should be something that all races alike wear as a badge of pride, but the perpetuation of the myths of Aryanism have created an environment in which the Aryan identity is associated only with being radical, angry, Jew-hating, gay-bashing, and a skinhead.

If that’s the Aryan that some people are, that’s fantastic. But Aryanism is by no means excluded to — or deterministic of — people who match these qualities. Unfortunately, though, this stereotype causes many people to feel afraid or hesitant to claim an Aryan identity, or to at least feel as though it is too distant and inaccessible to apply to them."

I don't care if she's "leg hair-bearing and a lesbian," but how is it "fantastic" to be "radical, angry, [and] man-hating"?

I can't imagine wearing "feminist" as "a badge of pride" if it includes the latter group. Just sayin'...

but anti-feminist,is not equal to being a racist.Yes,racist should
keep it to themselves,unless they want their ass kicked.

why do liberal and feminist get so mad,if someone doesn't
agree with their political view.

so if i'm interpreting what you're saying correctly: because there is a small minority of crazies amongst feminists (as there is going to be such a minority in ANY grouping of humans) i should disassociate myself from feminism, presumably as some form of protest against the existence of said minority of crazies. how is this a logical argument?

How is a regular columnist writing in the student newspaper of a campus of 52,557 an example of a "minority of crazies"? About the paper:

"The organization is a 501 (c) non-profit corporation, but classified as a student organization. The organization trains over 250 employees each year, is headed by the three Office of Publisher members, and governed by a Board of Directors."

That's a pretty organized "minority of crazies". They're also supposedly the future leaders of my state. I do take issue with that attitude being so broadly accepted by them.

um, you do realise that there are millions of feminists all over the world, right?

Bingo.

You're completely within your rights to say "I don't want to do that." You're completely within your rights to say "I don't want to pay for that."

You're probably not supporting a wife and six kids. You're not turning a crank on a lathe or filing papers by hand. Why are you working more than three days a week?

One of the most time-tested ways of forcing people to work is to raise their cost of living so much that they have no choice. That's what kept share-croppers poor. It's what the "company store" referred to in the song that this was taken from:

Challenge people who tell you to turn over your hard-earned wages to "the common good." Make them prove that the money actually goes there. Make it clear that you expect the same generosity from the beneficiaries of your giving if the tables ever turn.

Here's a domestic policy that burns resources faster than the Iraq and Afghan wars combined:

It's at least as ineffective:

One change alone - halving dysfunctional education - would save $350 per year for every man, woman, child, infant and invalid the country. That's more than most defense cuts have saved.

Work for things that you like. Work for things that are effective. Don't work for a counter-meritocratic system that hands power to people who don't even like you:

yes,in some area,feminist actual make sense,but American,western feminist
really have no point.Let see in America/west women can
-marry who they want
-not get married
-can sleep around
-wear skimpy cloth
-be lesbian
-go to college
-have an abortion
-vote
-can become CEO
-can run for office
-openly be feminist

feminist in west,have it so easy,compare to other women out there.

so because i don't live in a place where i might be subject to something like genital mutilation, i should shut my yap about feminism i guess. also very logical.

edit* --taking a break to watch the new episode of hannibal--also because i'm beginning to feel like i'm talking to myself.

you feminist act like women ''have no rights''in the west.
Women have tons of rights.Feminist is just a ''Political
club''now.Why are you feminist,You have tons of right.
You should happy,you have rights.

I'd rather date an unemployed, unattractive jerk who respects both me and himself than a rich, handsome 'Nice Guy' who disrespects me or himself.

It's not an either/or thing. It's a gradient.
