Has third wave feminism gone too far?

[Rod1]

I know its an overraction to hundreds of years of men dominated society but i think its going a little too far, specially among hispanic upper and middle classes in which it takes a dangerous overtone (since hispanic women are crazy).

Here is a video from Peru, Argentina or southern Spain based on the accent.

Basically a blogger asks if they would agree for a measure in that was put in place in an eastern country where adultery was punished with castration.

60% of the women (college students and other middle and upper class) say they agree with the measure, 0% of the men agree with the measure (castrating opposite sex).



Blogger had to take down the video due to feminist outrage (but its back up). Apparently its a bigger problem of women thinking violence again men is ok.


Whoopi telling it like is.




Another video of double standards



Now i still believe that you shouldnt hit a woman, even against physical threats, simply because i was raised that way.

feminism was/is a good idea. But like every group it's radicals have basically ruined it. I would like to believe that these fake radical feminists actually are a small minority.

Feminism will be unbearable and unstoppable once Hillary is elected

Violence against a man is funny until they douse you on fire while you sleep.

I used to receive death threats from my wife when she got mad back when we were younger, but they dont count because she is a woman and im a man.

Feminists will think she is working for 'team womyn' rather than 'team CFR'

Please cite third-wave feminist scholars, activists, or organization that endorse physical punishment for male infidelity. Thanks.

Interesting that feminism is a catch-all term. Feminism = anything women do that I don't like.

The problem on one says anything when the guy is getting smacked around. Now granted part of that could be that the guy is not going to be in as much danger and the girl in the opposite situation, but the fact that no one says anything shows how society views it is okay for women to hit men.

I read nothing other than the thread title, and yes.

criminal justice system and juries take violence against men pretty seriously, so i'm not sure what the complaint is. that public perception doesn't step in to stop a woman hitting a man?

well no shit, a man is much, much stronger than a woman. it's not an unreasonable perception that a man isn't in the same level of physical danger w/ his girlfriend slapping at him than a man dragging his girlfriend by the hair and smacking her upside the head. a woman couldn't ever physically manhandle a man unless you are dating starla from napoleon dynamite.

that doesn't mean there's no accountability. women get prosecuted all the time for domestic violence, b/c they do some crazy shit. and juries will routinely find them guilty of attacking men as well.

but yea, there is some discussion of what an appropriate response of a man is to a woman attacking him. i think 100% if it's a stranger, or a woman you don't know, and she's physically attacking you, you have every right to defend yourself. a woman you know....could depend more on circumstances. b/c you can't equate self defense to just losing your temper, which is a common thing with domestic relationships. just b/c a woman is breaking your shit, or throwing pencils at you, doesn't mean you can get up and deck her as hard as you can.

i've also been around feminists quite a bit, and i've never really seen this as a point of issue with them. sounds more like you guys are twisting the most extreme version you can find and painting it as the general consensus, wide spread problem, and i really don't think that it is.

Maybe i have seen to many episodes of Deadly Women

 

[Rod1]

I apologize for the shitty thread, i just found this series

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadly_Women

And made me a little paranoid.

 

[PolishHeadlock]

Latin women are just passionate.

 

[n...not crazy]

Of course it has gone too far. But it's not backed up by science or logic so it's paper thin. I think that anyone with a logical brain is baffled by it. I am surrounded by women in my life, have daughters, have everything to gain and nothing to lose by the empowerment of women, and I think feminism is shit.

I don't think that's true. She's just a typical front man (woman) for the party. She'll throw out some BS every once in a while to keep the nuts happy, but won't change the world. She's the one candidate who won't change jack shit IMO.

I run with a pretty diverse crowd and yet I basically never run into radical feminists. If the WR was any indication I'd be tripping over them all day, every day.

I think in general feminism has become a convenient punching bag for dickless loser men. They've made it into an avatar for every woman who's ever rejected them, cheated on them, or gotten the better of them in any way.

Conservatives obsess over feminism because identity politics is really all they have left at this point. Their ideology is intellectually bankrupt. What else are they gonna do? Sit here all day posting in defense of trickle down economics or advocate huge ground wars in Iraq and Syria? They lost the gay marriage fight, they get routinely crushed in the culture wars, so the only thing left is to hammer away at their spittle flecked keyboards about obscure branches of feminism and SWJs. I feel like Trump's campaign is the culmination these trends.

Very good point.

 

[Possum Jenkins]

Very good point.

It's pretty fascinating to see.

Female infidelity? Feminism. Problems or difficulty with courtship or dating? Feminism. Trouble in your marriage? Feminism. Never mind that these have been issues that are as old as humans have been around, no, it's the feminists that ruined it. Dickless loser men is pretty accurate.

Isn't Feminism identity politics?

Bolsheviks were a small minority

The loud small minority always dominates and controls the direction of the majority.

Pretty much every political revolution is started, led, and dominated by a relatively few number of loud intellectuals that use their voice to influence the masses to follow them into increasingly radical waters.

The French revolution was started, and led by a few hundred intellectuals in Parisian cafes that convinced laborers in Paris to riot. 80% of France never supported the revolution, and republican ideals outside of Paris would get you shot years later. Hell the French People voted a monarchy back into power several times.

Point being radical movements are hardly ever led by the "most reasonable" or "popular" ideas of the people.
