I brought up those points in response to the same points you've been making.

Emerald you don't get it


the issue is not that the woman is not a feminist


the issue is that feminist will not call this woman out for the injustice that she does to the legal system and the harm that she does tot he cause altogether.

It's the same reason say, no one takes civil rights seriously anymore I hate to say. People look at the stupid stuff that SOME WELFARE receiptants do, then people turn to the Al Sharptons of the world who are mum about all the abuses of the system.

Basically right now you are a woman version of Al Sharpton lol. The ISSUSE is that feminists are selfish spoiled brats who want MORE MORE MORE MORE. they don't' want fair or equality, they want MORE.


If you really gave a shit about the injusticies that women are receiving today you'd call this woman out for the harlot she is, you'd be at the front of the line for fair action because there will be a time where a REAL rape victim needs the legal system on their sides and women, real women, don't' want to see any man unjustly unpunished

But no, you're more concerned about "well she's not a feminist". That's gold lol. Quite frankely, YOU'RE NOT ONE EITHER. YOu give feminism a bad name.

Well it was more so about the systematic unfair treatment of men, and the feminist lack of concern because "it's not a woman's issue". I don't think anybody claimed that this woman was a feminist.

Women make less money, are subject to insane levels of violence, sexual or otherwise, and have to be constantly vigilant about their reproductive "rights."

That said... I don't know how exactly the system can be tweaked anymore. Nobody defends the glass ceiling, and most companies have gender equality policies, as do most governments. Interpersonal violence can only be dealt with by anti-bullying and education initiatives, which are extremely common and increasingly well-funded. Laws protecting women from abusive men are about as stringent as they can be. And most right-thinking men are fully on board with female reproductive rights.

Compare that with the massive systematic barriers that face men in the legal system. We are more likely to be convicted, and be sentenced more harshly. In custody cases, we face massive discrimination, as 9/10 custody cases are found in favour of the woman. We are expected to pay child support, which is fine, but we are also expected to pay alimony, which is not fine. The list goes on and on.

It isn't a matter of who is treated most unfairly, it is a matter of whose issues are being dealt with. Womens issues are being dealt with, mens are not. In some cases, the fixes implemented actually harm men. So if the goal is gender equality, I don't see how feminists can continue to ignore mens issues and focus exclusively on female issues.
