Anti-feminism vs Facts

It's obvious that feminism has received some pretty negative press in the last few years, the vast majority of the claims against it are either exaggerations or outright misinformation. The feminist movement is about equality for all, be it men or women. A common line I've heard thrown around in the past and even more recently is "we are equal, feminism isn't needed" - this is incorrect, the current goal of feminism is maintain the rights it has worked so hard to get, and to help put an end to the cultural sexism that is still rampant. It's obvious to anyone willing to look that the anti-feminist movement is incredibly sloppy with research, and cares little for genuine discussion outside of their echo-chamber, despite their constant mentioning of them appreciating intellectualism. I used to be a self-proclaimed "Anti-feminist", only now do I realize how idiotic that whole group is, I'm glad it looks to be dying, as it has no place in the modern mainstream. There is a reason it's vastly made up of 14 year-old's. Interesting video above regarding their disrespect of legitimate research.

  • Within the first two minutes, I spotted not only ad hominem, but false information. The whole 1 in 5 statistic has been debunked many times, because some people think that even the smallest things (such as looking at someone in an odd way, or touching them even if by accident) count as sexual harassment. I couldn’t get through the whole video, as I have more important things to do.
