Anti-Feminism

[LinusK]

@camille

I’ve been vocal about it, and I’ve seen others do it as well. Disagreement has always been a part of the movement, as with any other mass movement or ideology.

That’s been part of the problem with the OPs position. He seems to hold feminism itself responsible for the “incoherence”. However he has no problem simply disavowing the words and actions of openly misogynistic and violent anti-feminists, and wants his anti-feminist ideas presented here to be judged on the merits alone.

Here’s the thing: if someone criticizes a religion, an ideology, a political party or a movement, it’s up to supporters of that group to respond to those criticisms, if they want to.

For example, if someone started a thread called “Anti-Atheism” I would, if I felt like it, defend atheism. What I would not do is:

1.) Resort to personal attacks
2.) Claim that atheists don’t agree about anything, so therefore atheism can’t be critisized
3.) Start a pit thread
4.) Or demand that he take personal responsibility for anyone who’s ever criticized atheists.

As far as feminism’s incoherence, who is responsible for that, if not feminists?
