Masculinism

<< < (2/5) > >>

Becca:
A world without any 'gender-ist' movement would be possible if there is absolutely no discrimination between the sexes... However, the first few feminists had to do what they did as men were given too much of an upper hand over women.

Becca:
Well, that may be true in a few countries, but there are still several countries, which I think I'd better not name, that still bar women from many things like driving a car and having a job... I also read somewhere that, in certain places, women who have been raped have ended up in jail after being charged with unlawful sex. Hence, I think that feminists still have a long way to go in achieving their aim.

Oh, and to be honest, I feel that women seeking to achieve superiority OVER men, instead of equality, are actually no better than men who wish to hold on to their superiority over women, because why should any gender have the opportunity to discriminate against the other? :)

Alpha:
Till a feminist or masculinist movement is a Human Rights movement, there ought be no problem. And it's wrong to assume money is wasted on feminist organisations, given the blatant fact that ages back women had no right to work nor vote, which meant that almost half of the population of most countries consisted of repressed females who, except child bearing and house keeping, were allowed to do nothing else for their economies.

Becca:
True, true... Perhaps the emergence of masculinists would be good if the feminists are starting to repress men. There are always extremists out there, who may want to rein supreme over men just because they're ................ men.  :-\

Alpha:
Oh well... Men do are dominated by women in certain matriarchal societies. Polygamy, then male slavery.  ::)
