SUMMARY
Especially on the internet, the idea that we still need feminism is hotly contested. In this episode of Sex+, Laci goes through a list of 60 reasons why she thinks feminism is still important and relevant in 2013. She closes by asking the audience to discuss whether or not they identify as a feminist.
0:44 "I am a feminists because I was told the the first time i have sex will be painful...."
Wow didnt know feminism cures that
+CowboyHiha The first time you have sex should NOT be painful. If it hurts, it's because you aren't naturally lubricated because you aren't relaxed or truly turned on. Girls are told that that's normal, when it isn't. She's saying she's a feminist because of the lack of sexual education on those matters. And part of the reason the idea that pain is normal is continued, is so that men don't actually have to make a woman comfortable to have sex with them. Instead, the idea is it's normal for women not to be comfortable during sex for the first time.
+Holly Ballasteros no, its because the first time sex is had the hymen breaks. Thats a fact
+DerpyDudes that's not a fact. Have you ever taken sexual education? Or like researched that? The hymen can't "break". The hymen isn't a covering. It's extra tissue AROUND the vagina. There is no covering. The only thing that can happen is slight tearing without lubrication or too much friction.
right, but the first time its far more likely to bleed
Holly Ballasteros jean just rekt u
*says hairy armpits is a stereotype* *has hairy armpits*
+Matt Adair hahahahaha
She's making a statement, that women shouldn't be forced to follow gender roles...
B. Tickles
>says hairy armpits is a stereotype
>has hairy armpits
this is what feminists actually believe
+B. Tickles
While wearing makeup and perfectly coiffed hair. Aren't these also female gender roles?

you own me?
Mtn Dew ratings arent the only thing disabled in this video
Mtn Dew same
lmfaooooooooooo she blocked the number of likes and dislikes
Well she didn't disable the comment so she's clearly open for discussion. And if she didn't disable likes and dislikes people who don't even watch the video would just dislike because feminism is cancer lol edgy funny
Best woman
*Beat
LOL
Onni Leinonen dude u need to learn to chill it was just a joke
On the video you show the definition. "Social movement for gender and sex equality". "I'm a feminist because women..." No Laci. You should be a feminist for the human race, not one gender or sex. There are GLOBAL issues for both sexes. You're not a feminist if you're fighting one side, you're part of the problem.
Yeah I could not agree with this more.
you ARE a feminist if you're fighting for one side
I agree
Josh Latham Exactly. Which is why believing and supporting GENDER EQUALITY is so much better than Feminism.
Josh Latham You are right that feminism is the equality of all genders however it is called feminism to recognise the fact that historically and still to this day it is women who are oppressed. It is perfectly acceptable to be a feminist because you can see injustice against women, because feminism is literally all about fighting that injustice to bring women up to the level of men. Recognising a problem within one gender doesn't mean that you don't recognise the other

I have the feeling that there are no women on this comment section 🤔😂
😒😒😒😒
@@Jailson_rah ok
@Ethan Clark ok
I see that thumbs up/down has been disabled.
Fox Blue River ,,, because this worthless bio-tich has no common sense and keeps pushing men to MGTOW.
Lol
Fox Blue River cause UA-cam didn't want to hurt her feeling
Fox Blue River Ratings aren't the only thing disabled in this video.
Fox Blue River lol, I wanted to see all the genders so I can make fun of them and whenever she said make sure to comment below I looked below for the comments and guess what I saw...... comments have been disabled for this video. 😒
If women aren't supposed to be in the kitchen, then why do they have milk and eggs inside them?!

Feminism is this year's dankest meme.
why is gender equality a meme i dont get it
www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/feminism ???? where have u been
be sure to point me in the direction of groups of men fighting for women's rights (seeing as you expect women to fight for men's rights). Or, we could look at many instances where women are discriminated against by men, and maybe you should take issue with those seeing as it gives you all a bad name.
Actually racism is
PizzaJester feminist and black lives matter are pretty neck and neck lol SJWs in general are memes
I'm not a feminist because i literally did NOT hear you say anything about men being treated equal to women. which is normal because you're a FEMINIST meaning you care more about females than males. Thats not equality
Leshly Rodriguez How about the fact that a man in any part of the world can be whatever he wants, but a woman can only get that privilege in the West?
malcasablanca So feminism is required there and not here in the west.
Phantom Soldier "Do as I say, not as I do"?
malcasablanca Speaking doesn't do anything. Only actions is needed, so feminists have to go in third world countries and help.
+Corbin Devlin wait are you a feminist? because you're literally saying that only women problems matter. No thats not it. and if that's what feminism is i rather not be a part of it becausr I WANT EQUALITY FOR EVERYONE. Women do have a lot of problems i get that but they're not the only ones, what about men and other races and lgbt community everyone deserves equality and from what the chick in the video said she only cares about women and how being treated like a women is the only thing that matter
I remember i watched this video years ago and ALL the comments were negative and now they’re positive. Oh the times lol
I suppor feminism because I sexually identify as a Mailbox. We Mailboxes are discriminated by these Human men. We Mailbox men and woman support you Feminists. We also have the same favourite Drink Bleach! I support them because I slit my wrists with them. I support them because I am also insecure just like them (OMG we mailboxes have so much in common with feminists).
What you sexually identify as has nothing to do with feminism. 'Mailbox' doesn't even have anything to do with the LGBT community. I have no idea why feminism support LGBT issues, but the whole 'i identify as ...' thing is getting fucking old, dude.
Preach
Ozamataz Buckshank plz don't remind me :'(
u fucking wot m8? you are a pice of absolte total duong......OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
yes and also my dad is a tower
0:20 - Says that hairy armpits for feminist are just a stereotype
1:24 - Hairy armpits
theres also fat and unattractive, oh yeah and hate for men
oops
why is natural fuking hair disgusting? plz
Young Victor or maybe you should grow up?
Young Victor once again -.- natural human body
This is stupid.
The fact this video HAD to be made, the fact that she has to DEFEND something that should be common sense anyway makes me want to punch someone in the face. It's like saying "Why do you support oxygen?!" because it's a necessary part of life....
Some people don't understand why most people are feminists. This was just her explaining it.
Joe Cool I know, I just figured it would be common sense by now...lol
The Inexorable Prince It's not and that's the whole problem..
Johnnie Blotus
Did you really just call rape culture (a very real and very serious issue in today's society) a "paranoid conspiracy theory"?
Johnnie Blotus So please explain how it is okay for ANYONE to get raped, how our society laughs at women and men who have been raped, how they are called 'attention seekers' and 'asking for it'.
Tell me how it is okay for my family, my friends, my classmates to use the term 'rape' casually to describe beating another person in a competitive setting although rape is a serious issue.
And while you're at it, look up feminism in the /actual/ dictionary because I'm pretty sure it says this: feminism |ˈfeməˌnizəm|
noun
the advocacy of women's rights on the grounds of political, social, and economic equality to men
aka: EQUALITY FOR EVERYONE
I sexually identify as the measure of kilometres per second. Because I really want to km/s.
Best thing I've heard all day
Fucking beautiful.
I don't get it. This is not even a part of a joke.
lot works on this joke

Can someone please explain to me why feminists choose to style their hair real nice, wear makeup, put on nice clothes, but then not shave their pit hair and their pubes??????
Nobody???
Rick W because they don't have to?
Hope LaFever Well sure, they don't have to. They also don't have to dress nice or style their hair nice or wear makeup to look nice... but they do 😂 Sorry why not just go one step further and shave your pits and your pubes? You know, to look nice! Hell, even I'm a dude and I shave my pits and my pubes because it just looks cleaner!
Uh, maybe for the same reasons that men get nice haircuts, dress nicely, wear cologne and shave their faces, and also don't shave their armpits and pubes. Just maybe.
Giverny Boyer Most guys do shave their pubes
I'm a feminist because when I asked my mum why my dad doesn't help with the house chores she asked me what planet I was on.
Is it because your father just returned from a hard day of work?
On the contrary, it was a Saturday and he spent the day in front of the t.v watching soccer.
Queen Nzinga I agree what a piece of shit! Resting on the weekend after a long week of work how dare he!
First of all, don't insult my father even if you're just joking. Though I think he was wrong, I still respect him and won't let a random stranger call him a piece of shit. You need to calm down. Secondly, he's not the only one that had a long week of work in the household so why should he be the only one relaxing when there are chores to be done?
Queen Nzinga My comment was pure sarcasm I was not insulting your father I was being sarcastic. BTW does your mom have a full time job? Usually both parents don't work full time if they both do and your father still does no house work then that's not right
Shave those fucking pits
I agree
Oxyze she doesn't have to
Ella Craver she has to get them shits trimmed 🗡🗡⚒⚒🗡⚒🗡⚒🗡⚒
Captain hazama why? because it makes YOU uncomfortable??
all the fucking feminists in the comments... Lemme ask you "feminists" what you're 'fighting for' or are you just following the bandwagon
How much does a hitman cost?
normally arround 50.000 US dollars for a casual person but I am sure you 'll get a discount on that one.
Nojus Arutiunian 7.000$
Drivalord Back to collecting money then...
DatBoi as on 7, or 7000, cuz both are unnacurstr the lowest price I saw was about 10000 US dollars.
How much you offering big chief?
I've seen this particular video get debunked (literally butchered) so many times, this is the first time I've actually accidentally stumbled upon it and to my horror, it has over 3 million views and more likes than dislikes, wtf is wrong with people?
truee
Everything is wrong, fucking everything...
"like" generator. either that or youtube is promoting it by forcing likes onto it. it's just like what happened with the gay confession video uploaded by youtube spotlight. they gave themselves about 50k likes or so, luckily more people still outnumbered them.
Haven't watched the video yet but I'm guessing wage gap is on there
Yup it is
its a feminist made myth so yeah probably
RootinTootin Pootin no, the wage gap is real, not made up
its_zoie_ok what's made up is that it's due to discrimination
+its_zoie_ok it technically is but only because (to make the list short) men bust their asses off more if you want i could give you five reasons
Why is it that if a woman was to to slap or hit a man she's viewed as some sort of hero? In fact, the woman is often praised our idolized for slapping a man. If you guys are agreeing to equal rights for both genders, then all of you feminists are pretty much accepting that guys will be allowed to hit or fight a female the same way he'd fight another guy. Are you sure you really wanna go down that path?
Yes I do want to go down that path because I want to be seen as strong not as a girl I don't want to be hit but I don't want the reason for you not to hit me to be because I'm a girl. I don't want to just bring equality to women but to men too. I want there to be equality EQUAL meaning the same. So if getting payed the same as a man does and feeling safe at night means I might get hit harder than usual I will gladly get hit harder. Oh and stop implying that all girls are weak and can't take a hit because we can gain musle mass too. WOW!
+Mel On yeah. im sure rapists care mucho about your opinions.
+Mel On we can try, but it won't ever stop.
Just like Racism, Murder, Crime, etc.
I agree. I honestly don't think people should hit each other. The thing is men are usually stronger then girls so keep that in mind.
LiGht YaGami idk if you get what mean like if a girl hits a guy i don't feel like the guy need to always hit back. If a guy is stronger then a girl he can just restrain her and and ask her to stop
Feminist and proud
This video doesn't prove anything. Most of the statistics she cites are made up.
Tommygunns90 Ok when there fucking graphs on the screen
Way to be tolerant
No actually it proves that people believe all the shit they hear!
Try researching everything she said in this video. Nothing she said was a lie
I'm a gender-equalist, which includes feminism. (Feminism is awesome!)
Why: I care about the females in my life too much not to be. Including my daughter.
Feminism Isn't about equal rights, its about SPECIAL rights
***** Feminism has the word "equality" right in it's definition. You're wrong; by definition.
Dustin Mitchell If you believe in equal rights, join the equal rights campaign, feminism is about treating women better than men, and when men point them out, their "Sexist"
Dustin Mitchell You cant have both.
*****
Again, the DEFINITION of feminism has the word equality written right into it.
Any person who is fighting for women to be superior to men?? They don't deserve to call themselves a feminist.
true queen shit, truly ahead of her time
if someone in this comment sections says "most feminists dislike men", "most feminists think women are better than men", or "most feminists are radical feminists" one more fucking time without proving it im going to fucking lose it.
"even if thats true the minority speaks the loudest!!!"
yeah or the media likes to focus on radical feminism (which is an incredibly, incredibly, incredibly slim minority of the movement, mind you) and act like they are the basis of feminist theory! which kind of happens a lot!!! :)))
"most feminist"
JiggyPepper8D yeah, most.
do you really not see the issue with what you just posted
JiggyPepper8D "do you really not see the issue with what you just posted"
If that's directed at my comment, I can see the issue feminists would have with what I just posted.... It shows feminism in a negative & sexist light.... Or to put it slightly differently it accurately describes feminism as it really exists, without feminist platitudes and excuses for the ideology as it has always been employed.
I'm not sure why this video is so controversial. This is basic stuff people. Treating others the way you want to be treated. This should not be groundbreaking. Great video Laci!
It is a great video. Lots of hate fuelled I think by UA-cam grifters like Shoe on Head.
Let's enable those like and dislike numbers
Agreed. Like wtf is up with these kind of people disabling that. I can name a few that do that but ill just name one. philogynoir. On every one of her videos the comments are disabled and no like dislike ratio is shown.
David S She won't cuz it will prove how people feel about her stupid video
I think its probably
👍47 👎284k
She know she get dislike
David S bet
I need feminism because without it I would have nothing else to laugh at.
Hahaha!
Nonononono, you misread. I said "feminism", not equal rights. I'm not really sure how you confused them, they're basically opposites...
ROFL!
Not a feminist. I'm a humanist.
Making the word to suit your needs doesn't erase the problem.
Depends on the problem.
My problem is with the word.
(Joking aside)
Feminism is regarded by many to be a pro-woman anti man. A movement set on female dominance instead of equality. Regardless of this being the truth, it is the belief many.
A belief that is only enforced when being called chauvinistic and "the problem".
But then again, it might just be based on my location. We don't really have those issues around here.
iGottaRandomName The main word in that was "regarded." Feminism is REGARDED to be anti-man. That's the real problem. 99% of feminists don't hate men. There are, of course, extremists. The term "humanist" usually leads people to think of starving kids or abused old people, not gender inequality.
And the perception of the movement is often even more important than their efforts.
You can't change the world, if the world doesn't take you seriously.
From my perspective, feminism biggest hindrance lies in that 1% of feminists (popular known as fem-nazis) who does their very best to alienate people who might had been sympathetic to the cause. They may be few, but they are louder and more visible than the 99%.
Humanist doesn't mean what you think it does, it has a meaning that predates feminism. Call yourself an equalist or say you support equalism.
The bleach is on me. Free shots for everybody.

Thx bro
Going through the comment section kinda feels like being in a big room with a cold war going on. People from both sides are making good points sometimes, but most of what they're all saying seems to be cherry picking and putting words in the opposite sides mouths. I'd say both men's and women's rights should get a closer look in today's society. This endless fighting about who is right and whose fault it is doesn't actually help either side in my opinion. Can't we all agree that current laws are outdated for both sides and need upgrading without trying to strangle each other on the way to improvement? Not all women who stand for women's rights mean to demean the rights of man and not all men who stand for men's rights mean to demean the rights of women, we need to work on our collective listening skills perhaps. That doesn't mean you have to agree with the other side, it would just be nice to have an open neutral ground to have discussions or debates. I'd say it's better to agree to disagree on some points than to start pettily calling each other names or making offensive jokes, no one benefits from that, it just perpetuates the gap where both sides are not listening anymore but only shouting at each other from afar.
I haven't commented on the actual video yet I suppose. In short, I came back to this video in 2019 to see if my opinions had changed after 5 years now that I feel more informed on the matter. I notice how a big part of the story is one-sided and not completely informed from both perspectives, so for me it's no longer relevant to my interests, since it's only one part of the discussion. I'd love to see more neutral information on this matter so that I can decide for myself what I think of the matter, and not to be fed information from only one side. That's how we can make an informed decision on where we stand in this. While I think that Laci's video isn't complete and not that factual anymore, I don't believe she deserves all the hate and name calling in the comments, that's not how you make things better people. That only drives people to depression and possibly suicide if they don't have a thick skin, would you really think job well done if someone harmed themselves because of a hateful comment you wrote? I'd like to think we're all better than that, c'mon people, practice common decency a little.
Sorry, that got kinda long didn't it? Thank you for reading all the way, have a nice day/night.
You are a feminist because you are a moron. Its people like you that played identity politics with reckless abandon to the point where men are now destroying women in womens sports. Thanks so much for that sunshine.

Under federal anti-discrimination laws, businesses can refuse service to ANY PERSON for ANY REASON, unless the business is discriminating against a protected class. At the national level, protected classes include: RACE OR COLOR. NATIONAL ORIGIN OR CITIZENSHIP STATUS.
You have more rights than any woman to *ever* exist upon the face of the earth, and you're still not happy? Typical women, emotion trumps rational thought.
Tell me are you really okay knowing your girlfriend, wife, sister, cousin. Whatever any women in your life is making 450000 dollars less than a man. Even more so would you be okay with someone raping them and saying it's there fault?
Cupcaker My sister makes twice as much as me actually.
Russell Speed Most of them are, lol.
AWResistance ^ This is why I'm a feminist
Russell Speed If you need a worthwhile reason then WATCH THE GOD DAMN VIDEO
I'm a feminist because a lot of these comments are dismissing your arguments because you have body hair.
Johnnie Blotus Please further explain this amazing conclusion you have come to.
Some people are trolls or are shithouse at putting forward arguments, I don't see how that could be your main driving point for becoming a feminist.
If a man grows a long beard, of course he will be judged, people will laugh or make few comments about it. Tomorrow I will walk around showing my hairy legs & if people reacts, I will become Man Feminist or something. I am not here to argue but I am just saying any theory that divides humans into subcategories either it is religion, race, skin color & since last 3 decades, gender, should not be encouraged. It only creates hatred between people.
AustralianBigot Yes, I had no idea that I was a feminist until I read the comments on this video, which is the reason I'm a feminist now and that I wasn't a few hours ago. The fact that people were demeaning Laci for her arm hair was the exact reason I decided "hey, you know what's great? Equality between genders."
MagicEve Good job.
While I agree with you on your end Goals laci, I don't agree on your method of getting there I:E Feminism.
Feminism seems to have 2 different definitions these days, It's either a movement fighting for womens rights, Or a movement fighting for everyones rights. Some people say, Well why can't it be both... Notice how they never include Men's rights activism under the same regard. It's quite simple, You're eithier: A Men's rights activist, A feminist, Or an eqalitarian much like your either gay straight or bi. Eqalitarian is the movement of equality, Not feminism and not MRA. I'll explain why.
First of all lets start with mens rights and womens rights, Wait hold the phone. There's a problem already. What the hell is a womens right or a mans right? What rights do we have based on our gender alone? The answer is absolutely none. Therefore feminism and MRA by their core definitions do not actually make a heck of a lot of sense especially under the eyes of equality where gender is irrelevant.
Don’t get me wrong, Both movements have their equality fighters, Both movements also have their misogynistic and misandrist douchebags within them and sadly they’re not in small numbers. Most of the equality fighters within these groups will concede they exist and even those who show a front of fighting for equality will often tell the opposite gender to go cry or ignore the other genders plight on issues which shows me that both groups no matter what the claim deep down are sexist. Not saying that all the members of these movements are like that but It’s quite clear to anyone who has ran into them before especially in quantity that the sexists are not rare at all.
But this isn’t the only problem, You see Gender equality is about making gender irrelevant, and yet how are these movements fighting for gender equality? By making gender a dividing factor. Seems hypocritical does it not? How do you plan to fight for equality while contributing to the division?
Are we also forgetting that there is a growing third gender? Transgenders?
Not to say that issues both genders face aren’t good to fight against, murder,rape, rape culture, domestic violence, the right to freedoms, The right not to be scared objectified or discriminated against in any shape or form are all issues that need to be addressed in our society and the wider world but all of these issues are felt by both genders. I will gladly acknowledge that rape is an issue where women are the majority of victims, I will gladly acknowledge that murder is an issue where men are the majority and i will gladly acknowledge that transgender people make up the majority of discrimination if we bring statistics into it.
But I ask you this, Should we care about the gender of the victim? Does that sound like a equality stance to you? Or should we focus our full attention on the crime, The issue. I would support the later, considering that once you start focusing on the gender you not only ostrocise victims who are not a part of that gender, Intentionally or otherwise. You also contribute more to the double standards in society & breed a culture of hate and fear where one of the 3 genders always fears one of the others.
So as this has made perfectly clear, I’m not against feminism because I don’t support women, I’m not against Men’s rights activism because I’m against men. I’m against them because:
A) They’re against equality
B) They breed fear and hate
C) They harm victims Intentionally or Unintentionally
D) They ignore a gender
F) They take focus off the issues for their own sexist agendas.
I couldn’t give a fuck what gender you are. I fight for equality through equalities standards. I’m not a hypocrite & I believe in and will always stick to the principle of equality.
The only issue that a woman faces that a man doesn't face that I can possibly think of in the civilized or should I say the civilized and slightly moral world is the right to be topless, If anyone can think of anymore, please feel free to respond.
At the end of the day we want the same thing, However bringing gender into play is not a good path to equality laci, In fact it's the very opposite of what gender equality is all about.
Fight for equality with equality.
Why does this only have 2 (without counting my 3rd) thumbs up? This is exactly what I try to explain, but its also given me more insight on things. It's really sad though that as our generations go on there will always be something holding us back that we've adopted from previous generations. So with that I will agree with another commenter, I don't think think we'll ever be equal in any form of the word and it is truly sad, but I hope that we get somewhere far where people at least feel comfortable in their skin and take pride in their gender, whether its the same or different from birth sex.
Fucking brilliant! Thank for making that statement in such an eloquent way! Can I share this statement on Facebook?
"The only issue that a woman faces that a man doesn't face.. is the right to be topless."
Did you even watch the video that you're commenting on?
Sisky Ha, that quote you posted about is actually false since in NYC you can go around topless as a women now :D
Sisky Yes I did, However you will find that specific situtations of an issue don't warrant the issue only facing a specific gender. If you would like me to go through each issue and explain them then I'm more than happy to do so.
So you're a feminist? You want equal rights? Alright, show us you want equal rights by having a man punch you in the face on camera. Post it on UA-cam, and please don't sue the guy after he hits you. Equal rights means you have to go through the same pain. So go on. We are waiting for your contribution to feminism...
What about not hitting anyone, male or female?
Ornakian Queen That's very good actually. I applaud that response.
But keep in mind that violence always plays a key on mankind. If a woman is hit, it's seen as a crime, but if a man is hit it's seemed as something acceptable. However shift the tide to where woman hit men, they just see the man as weak. But if a man hits a woman, it's unacceptable because of these gender morals we have. If she wants equal rights in a world that usually settles rights with violence (wars, revolutions, etc), then she has to contribute to the cause she believes in. She doesn't get to sit back and watch. She needs to act.
Plus the whole thing of her not shaving her armpits, Who cares? We never forced you to shave in the first place so don't blame men for it.
*****
Exactly! But nooooooooo women always have to be the victims in everything. Even if she is hitting her husband or bf, she considers herself the victim.
Tabsopharah Rowschramerilli Yes I did, actually. So what? Crime is everywhere, you can't stop it so get used to it.
Women hit men too. So you really have no argument here.
Artislife000
I'm an egalitarian because I believe in equality. Definition:
The doctrine that all people are equal and deserve equal rights and opportunities. I belive we should fight for all. Men,women, black, white, Gay straight and all of them inbetween.
i love egg
the memes brought me here, lel
"Know your fucking place..TRASH!" Lmfaoooo
i have no idea what you guys are talking about.
+Cuzn55 LOL,
I thought I was the only one who saw that video xD
same dude😂😭
Same
No one in four women are not assaulted but maybe one in four women who CLAIM to be sexually assaulted and even then that's really pushing your luck
There are so many things wrong with this video it's borderline laughable.
I didn't even watch the video, and I agree with you. It goes without saying that anyone who is an avowed feminist is insane, and there doesn't need to be a discussion about it.
Alex Smith I advise you watch it for the lulz. Using statistics that have been long debunked (the pay gap-REALLY?), basing some issues on personal problems (DADDY DIDNT DO THE LAUNDRY. I NEEEEEED FEMINISM NAO), and some reasons that just sound like truth.
>my friend was #rekt for weeks because someone called him a pussy
>a word made my friend depressed for weeks
>implying he wasn't a fucking pussy
Alex Smith
The position of Feminism is arguably... flawed in nature... due to being FEMinist.
That said, a majority of the things she mentioned in this video are legitimate causes for concern in society.
That said, they were indeed mainly female related... for a reason... because she stands for Feminism. It is inevitably going to deal with issues biased to females more. Even if the issues are serious i find that to be a little unfair.
Really, we should all be standing for Gender Equality in general. There are too many issues which put men at a disadvantage and patriarchy has negative effects on men too, if you actually understand what patriarchy means.
Red Herring Your name is Red Herring. Opinion discarded.
JK, but I do say I both agree and disagree with your statement. Agree in that she does raised legitimate areas of concern between the massive pile of shit (how religion influenced the Saudi treatment of women and how double standards exist as social norms). Disagree in that focusing on "equality" upon many fronts, dependent on this issue, is an impossibility or achieved by restricting personal freedom, devaluing individual merit, or even causing further rift amongst demographics.

If your hypothetical wife left you, would you not want to have equal opportunity and equal rights over custody of your hypothetical child?
Yet this doesn't happen in most part, the women almost always ends up being the main carer and gets to spend the most time with them, even if they aren't best suited for whatever reason, yet we still have to provide a significant amount of the money for the child.
This is one circumstance of male inequality, there is also many for female inequality.
According to you, we should not try and change these issues.
These faulty social norms based on patriarchal views as men being the breadwinner and females being the carer of the child need to be diminished, even more so than what lingers on today.
feminists: women should be exactly equal to men!
should men hit back women?
feminists: absolutely not!
should women do men's heavy-dirty jobs like trash disposal, seweage cleaning, mining, lumberjacking and so on?
feminists: ofc not, those are men's job!
should women go to war?
feminists: well men are better suited for this.
Then how on earth do you want equality between genders? There are things men are better at and things women do better, there is no need for the so called "equality".

+Jackelyn Gallardo while women who are serving in the military hate feminism and agree they have zero place in the front line's with men who are far above them in strength and fitness a woman only slow's them down.
Honestly I'm really not against women in the army, just women joining to prove a point, like we know they're physically capable of it but if they're just going to waste time and endanger more than just themselves then why go from starbucks to marines if tou just need to prove yourself for tumblr
That's not how all feminists are. If women want to protect their country by going to war then do it!! If women want to work heavy duty jobs by all mean they're going to do it. And if I ever hit a man I'd expect him to hit me back twice as hard. And why? Because women are EQUAL to men. And sexism isn't only attacking women nowadays it's attacking men to. Men can't show emotions because it's "girly" or "only girls show emotions" being called a cunt or a pussy is the worst thing that a man can be called. Because men can't be different from each other or dress more feminine, or have long hair, or show emotion because all that stuff is girly. Sexism attacks men just as much as women

HELL YES i'm a fucking feminist! fun fact: in my history class i would ask to hear more about women's history and more about black history and just anyone besides white men for an hour a day and my teacher made fun of me in front of the class. i love being a feminist and honestly it baffles me to this day that there are people who still think feminists are the enemy
Well to be honest history is the subject of the past right and I'm sure you can agree that the past was mainly dominated by white men in superior positions so it makes sense for most of history courses to be about events involving white males. Not saying that women don't have history and it's not important but that, generally history was about men.
Alexis Geismar i get that i just wish there was a little bit more female history mixed in

Defend yourself pal! Ignore what other groups say, it's all upto you, make a just decision. Male or female we are human, and if a human hits me I'm damn right gonna hit back.
Sir yes Sir
Just because some people do something does not mean anyone of that same gender does it. Grow up issy. Women have murdered and beat men, yet no one is as stupid as you to say that all women are doing it, or to place any blame anywhere near you. I've never hit anyone, or been hit, so your statistics mean nothing to me as an individual. But if you hit me, damn fucking right I will hit you back. solve the problem by being the solution, stop all this blame and lets move forward as a society. Please.

I'm a feminist because I believe, whether you're a man or a woman, young or old, rich or poor, you should be allowed to grow hair anywhere on your body that you see fit.
Who said anything about being a bigot?
I did? Pretty sure I didn't. Let me go back through my comment again, see if I can spot it....nope, closest thing I see is, "I'm a feminist..." Sorry. :^/
Tongue2Flagpole25 You're a feminist therefore you are a bigot.
I think a quick perusal of the dictionary might help clear things up:
Feminist (noun): a person who supports feminism.
Feminism (noun): the belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities.
Therefore, since I am a feminist, I am a person who supports the belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities.
Bigot (noun): a person who strongly and unfairly dislikes other people, ideas, etc.
I don't see how the two ideas come together in my case. Perhaps you could elaborate?
Tongue2Flagpole25 Oh look you can make up your own definitions. . . I know how about we actually go to dictionaries and take a look ourselves?
Wikipedia: Feminism is a collection of movements and ideologies aimed at defining, establishing, and defending equal political, economic, and social rights for women.
Merrian-webster: organized activity in support of women's rights and interests
Dictionary.com: 1.the doctrine advocating social, political, and all other rights of women equal to those of men.
2. ( sometimes initial capital letter ) an organized movement for the attainment of such rights for women.
3. feminine character.
In all these definitions, the main focus is the betterment of women, not men and women or humanity!
If you tend to focus on one particular group to the exclusion of others, there is a tendency to marginalize the excluded groups, which ironically was the origin of the feminist complaint of the treatment of women in society.
So yeah, your'e a sexist bigot.

+Pry well, you do, Pry
+Maggie Affe It's funny how femenism is so big in first world countries when it's 3rd world countries that need them. It's almost like all femenists do is bitch and complain, and when it comes to actually doing something (like helping women in 3rd world countries) they just sit back and wait for men to fix their problems.

Isnt Feminism about equal rights? Why does she only mentions women in this video?
+Dynomitez No it isn't, its for equal rights to women and not for everyone. Feminism is an Marxist communistic ideology that is built on that the patriarchy keep women as a social class and is oppressing them. Even when there is no legal inequality today and no one can actually point out what this patriarchy is and who is part of it the patriarchy still exist and keep women oppressed. Women didn't have a right to vote and the evil oppressive patriarchy gave them voting rights..... wait a second here.....
+Dynomitez Yes, feminism is about equal rights, and this video in not only about women, she mentions, the LGBTQ+ community which consists of all genders. Also most of the examples she is using mostly apply to women, like catcalling, and the wage gap. She never said that men don't have problems, but I see it as her saying all of the problems that affect herself and most women on this planet because at this point we have gotten so far in the fight for equality ( because our society used to be a male superior society) that making all of the problems targeted at women known through media like youtube videos, is helping a lot. Although there are many other problems to both genders that are not mentioned in this video your point that says that there are so many problems with gender inequality targeted at both genders, makes it more of a reason to need feminism.
Mika soroczan No it doesn't. If you never address mens issues you are missing about 50% of the issues as men are far bigger in number then LGBTQ is. Also LGBTQ doesn't consists of all genders. LGBTQ stands for: Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer. I do not see a F or M in there.
The wage gap is a lie, women are not paid less then males just because they are females. In the US it was made illegal to pay women less then men for the same work in 1963 and was signed by John F. Kennedy. The reason there is a gap is because women tend not to work as much or make choices that is different from men which makes them earn less then men. The "wage gap" is not a gap in what you are paid, its a gap in what you earn. Sure there might be a few cases where females are paid less just because they are females but those are the exception and not the norm.
She never did say men doesn't have problems true, but she also *NEVER* address the issues as well. You can't stand for equality and never address the other side, if you don't you will never know when you have equality.
Also you are wrong in the society used to be male dominated. Women might not have often been the final authority in most cases but they have always had power. Just because you do not have as much legal power doesn't mean you do not have social power. Males have in history been legally responsible for everyone in the family, if his wife did something illegal he was held accountable for her crimes and not her. That is the drawback with having legal power, it can and will be used against you. Also let me remind you of 2 big important people. Elizabeth I of England and Catherine the Great of Russia. Both where women that ruled their own countries and became very powerful. Elizabeth was the virgin Queen that never had a man or descendants. Catherine married the Russian prince that was mentally handicapped and took the right to rule away from him in a coup d'etat as he can't in any way rule the country. People have allowed females to rule and females have stepped up for the challenge as well. Women was never treated as cattle before, maybe in biblical times but that was barbarism as well.
No, we do not need feminism because you people do not know how to fucking handle the world. Lets take this example from Sweden, the worlds first feminist country.
There was a 12 year old girl and a 17 year old boy from Syria. The boy tricked the girl to come to his apartment and when in his apartment he raped her so hard she started to bleed heavily while he said "black dick is expensive". Ofc he was brought to court and sentenced. Rape does normally give you a minimum of 2 years in prison, this boy got like 1-2 months of community service. COMMUNITY FUCKING SERVICE!!! WHY!! BECAUSE HE WAS BLACK AND A MUSLIM!!! If this was a white boy he should be swing form a lamp post by now with 3-4 years in prison. No, just because he is from Syria and a Muslim everyone went far far easy on him. He didn't even have any mental problems in any way. You do not need feminism because you people do not know how to handle the world. You are a bunch of young teens or city girls that always had your parents help in everything and never spent a days work in your life. You are spoiled brats thinking you know how the world works without recognizing how many men that actually sacrifice themselves for you to keep the society you take for granted going. When was the last time you saw women working in a sewage plant cleaning the grates from used tampons, condoms and used needles? I have never seen a women do that because they do not want equality enough when it gets to the bad stuff. Its only the good stuff they want equality in.
Because its not equality. Its female.
Women are discriminated against in our society. Femininity is looked down upon. It's advocating for equality between masculinity and femininity; hence, feminism.
I agree that she should've included how feminism helps men. Sexuality is counter-productive and hurts everyone, including men. That being said, society focuses on masculinity and the power of men. Feminism shouldn't do that too.

Mines is gonna be short because if i don't keep it that way i will literally go on forever... yes I'm male and yes in 14 but I'm a HUGE feminist because Using woman and there bodies to promote something is demoralising. Using woman as sexual objects is one of the worst acts of sexism. Because young girls/teenagers and even young woman have low confidence if this is the standards you hold them to. Because I'm really sick and tierd of seeing shit posted all over the place and no one ever says anything about. You don't understand that images can ruin the way people treat woman. Some Images tell straight men that's it's ok to think woman are just sexual objects, it's ok to treat woman like they are nothing more than something you throw away after one night, that it's ok to think less of them, that it's ok to catcall at them from across the street, that it's ok to dehumanise them because thee good for nothing apart from serving your needs. I will not continue to stand by and say nothing until I can be sure that my cousin, sister, mother aunt best friends can walk at home on there own without feeling scared or threatened of sex hunger, brain dead idiots that have no respect for woman. Fuck that feels good to let my frustration out
Haha, i grow up in an all female household, apart from myself, so i was taught from a young age to treat woman with respect. And yes British politicians are just ughhh
If you think that is how women are treated, you are surely mistaken.
First, the people in those ads do it because they want to do it, and they fucking get paid millions for it.
Second, if they didn't like their jobs, they would have quit and gone elsewhere.
Third, it isn't your job to enforce your ideals on what's "demoralizing" onto others.
Fourth, men are represented to the same extent as women, but in different ways.
Fifth, in truth, EVERYONE is a sex object. We all were born in order to grow up and have kids, who will then have kids themselves.
Sixth, in reference to my last point, that is why your "demeaning" objectification happens.
Seventh, the threat of sexual assault does not only surround women. You're alienating male victims.
Eighth, okay, be afraid of only the sex offenders, even though they are few and far between...completely ignore the thieves, drug dealers, and gangs that carry out a lot more crimes daily.
Ninth, If you subscribe so deeply into media that you will believe anything, you are NOT a representation of the average person and there is something wrong with your perception of reality.
Tenth, feminism isn't the right for equality as you are taught. Modern feminism is the result of some women pinning their shortcomings on gender, so they can become "superior" and not have to face the consequences of their actions.
Thanks for your opinion but i don't need you telling how i should and shouldn't feel, I have my opinions and based them on facts. I dot need you telling me how to think. I also don't need your "I'm a man feel sorry for me too". Guess what I'm going to say next... I also don't need you telling me i don't have a good perception of reality, you need a reality check if you think that the men are victims. Now kindly, fuck off x

I'm an equalitist not a feminist... Kinda the same thing butttttt.... It doesn't just focus on the FEM in it. I want equal rights for men AND women... What I'm most miffed about is that men can get breast cancer and cancer research deny men for the race for life.... WHY???! I'd understand if it was for ovarian cancer!!!
Feminism IS the support of equality, shaming the name of it is part of what is devaluing the concept itself. No one - man or woman - should support negative connotations surrounding "fem".
It flipping annoys me, why should men be refused life saving treatment? And if it's for equality, why does the name surround women? There's so much confusion for it because it starts with fem. And that's why I'm an equalitist. I'm also am an equalitist cause in my country the women fought for equal rights (which is great fantastic even) but every woman seems to think that makes them better than men. And it pisses me off.
vvildberry Its starts with fem and focuses on woman while men are widely descriminated against for it. If you call yourself feminist ppl will know you are sexist towards men to a somewhat large extent.
But breast cancer research will help male sufferers, too.
EGLchan The society we look live in sexualizes woman, so having breast exposed.... It may trigger perversion.

"but if a man said the sane thing everyone would say OMG!!1!1 THAT'S AWFUL!!1! SOMEONE SHOULD DO SOMETHING!!!1!1! "
considering no one's seen a PSA for men's rights but feminist PSAs are shown all the time then you are verifiably wrong. men's rights lectures and rallies get protested and banned all the time by feminists and get away with it but you never see the reverse. all the "facts" in this video have been disproven a thousand times over, and the reason why everyone mocks feminism is because you retards refuse to listen to the facts.
Thats not how reality works.... imagine 2 people, a man and a woman. The two reported a case of rape. Who do you think they would likely to believe? Even so, they would laugh and mock the guy for reporting that he got raped.

That's because feminism isn't equipped to fix the entire world's problems. There is a common misconception that feminism somehow means egalitarian, I shan't subscribe to this false ideology that feminism is fighting to make _all_ gender issues go away, I'd rather consider myself egalitarian - a word that holds no bias towards a particular gender and doesn't pretend to pander to "all genders" whilst really only focusing on one. As far as I'm concerned, this modernized "feminist" movement is utterly toxic and completely irrelevant to the first world.

I'm an egalitarian. I believe in EQUALITY. Feminism is not about equality.
zellarsDD777 yup
zellarsDD777 Well, to me the word "feminism" refers to "a movement for gender equality, respect for every genders including LGBT. Actually, equality and respect for every human on earth." But the word "feminism" remained because women are the largest minority to be oppressed, and the fight they began long ago was lead by women, so as their legacy it is still called "feminism". But the principle is the same as "equality". That's why I believe in feminism.
Also, men and LGBT can be as feminist as women can (they already exist !) :)
Sol Ange No, it isn't. And women aren't a minority. 50% of the world population is in no way a minority. The fight that actual feminists like Susan B. Anthony started long ago to actually achieve equal rights such as suffrage. Women have the same rights as men now.
zellarsDD777 You got the definition wrong.. Or maybe seeing fake hypocrite girls... Please if you ever see a feminist acting sexist, they're regina george in sheeps clothing

The pay gap has been disproven and it is illegal to pay anyone less based on gender or race or anything like that.
Reece Gardner Too bad that gender discrimination in workplaces is still going strong.

www8.gsb.columbia.edu/newsroom/newsn/2700/new-research-proves-gender-bias-extraordinarily-prevalent-in-stem-careers
Racial, too.
www.chicagobooth.edu/capideas/spring03/racialbias.html
Dario Carraresi The first link, I don't care if men are hired over women 2 to 1 because if you look at how much more men work and how much work they do, plus they don't get pregnant and live the job for a year to take care of their baby. Second link, more men are hired for STEM jobs because more men go for jobs in that field. Third link, I don't need to talk about race, this is about the gender equality that western feminist can't see that they have.
Reece Gardner So:
- You don't care that women aren't get hired because of gender discrimination. They submitted requests that were _all absolutely identical_, barring the name. Essentially, those hiring managers preferred men over females for no other reason than gender discrimination.
- The same went for the STEM hiring study. The hiring managers hired mostly men despite the fact that women were more efficent. So, no, the "women work less" excuse is just an excuse.
- Third, you brought up that it's illegal to pay someone less because of their "gender or *race* or anything like that". That means _jack shit_ if there's still discrimination, as shown above, and the law isn't actually _applied_, as a lot of hiring managers still discriminate with no ripercussion whatsoever.
Dario Carraresi I don't care if men get hired over women if it is just 2 to 1. Also how is it sexist that less women are in STEM when it's not sexist that there are more women in Women's studies and teaching. The wage gap does NOT exist. It has been disproved so many times. And yes equal pay is applied because it is the law.
Reece Gardner You got that backwards. Those studies demonstrate that it doesn't matter if a woman is more productive than a man, even in STEM - the man will be chosen of hiring/promotion. That's discrimination by definition - because it isn't based on merit. If it was, the women would've been chosen, since they eithe had the _exactly identical qualifications_ as men (1st link), or were _more productive_ than men (2nd link).
The same went for that study on racial discrimination: the applications were _identical_ barring the name, so the only variable was whether the applicant had a foreign-sounding name (and thus was probably foreign), or not. Result: non-foreign names were favored.
Have you even read those links?
Also: if gender and racial discrimination don't exist because they're illegal, then how do you explains those results? Magic?
All the negativity just proves the point, as she isn't saying anything controversial.

+Koharu Hinata You know, Anime are incredibly SEXIST! OMG! Let's image a man who does never shave... I think his girlfriend will be the first person (if she hasn't left him already) who asks him to shave. You cannot give real-life examples.
I'm a meninist because I want to allowed to jump on the life boats when a ship sinks first. I'm a meninist because I want equal chances of winning custody over my child in court. I could give more reasons but then again who cares about male rights?
When its guys sweep it under the rug, but girls the media is getting ready to turn everything sexist.
Captain Blonde Beard Well it's not against the law for a Man to jump of the boat first it's just safer to let the child and mother go off especially if the child is young. Also it is equal for child custody it just depends on what the child wants..
Janet Krause nope, I assume you know nothing about court. It's is the law and the child has no say.
Captain Blonde Beard a feminist caters for all that. Feminism is for men and women
Erin Clive use for women, it's dictionary definition. It's just for women check yourself

Hi 12 year old did you steal your mom's phone again I think she needs it to go to work so you should be give it back
I'm a straight guy and probably one of the most gung-ho feminists in my women's history class because I think a single label shouldn't be the sole reason a person couldn't support a movement. Do you not value individuality? I mean, pretty much everyone does to some extent, I would imagine. How can you not see how these gender roles get in the way of that? They value simplicity over freedom of thought and expression. They were constructed to maintain the status quo. But anything that contradicts your understanding of them is an "other" to be feared or disgusted by. Xenophobia at its finest.
@TheUnPCDrunkBasterd _, Phobia means a strong fear, aversion or unacceptance. Upgrade your vocabulary, please.
Isn't xenophobia the fear people from other places
Today I decided to be a feminist. 3 hours into my feminism I gained over 230pounds....
Shut the fuck up you ugly bitch
? I'm not sure what you mean.
Holy fuck LMAO
ha
i dont get it......so you......what?
There's a girl in my class who touches boys and hits them as well for no reason and protects her by saying gender equality boys can't fire back on girls and gets angry for no damn reason...one day she slapped me for no reason. My friend was rearing to get on her but I told him she's just a kid leave her then she slapped my friend also he was now enough angry to tear her into 2 pieces after taking all the non-sense and my friend rose up to slap her and she stated, "What!? are you gonna hit a girl? do you have some manners left in you?" and prior to that he actually slapped her back and said "as you say you want gender equality, here is your gender equality bit*h"
Rambo Jr I love the kid that slapped her I knew a bunch of girl s that did that
What a legend
You sir, are the meaning of why I live
see? I'm a feminist and I agree with this. this is real gender equality. either everyone can slap everyone, or no one can slap anyone. that is literally fucking equality.
Rambo Jr this is even better than the actual video
Wait she said that having hairy armpits was a non true stereotype, then she proceeds to not shave proving the stereotypes
Michael Bass exactly my thoughts 😂
She says it’s a stereotype but that doesn’t mean she’s required to shave. Just like it’s a stereotype that gay males have high pitch voices. I know plenty of gay guys who really do have super high pitch voices, but I also know plenty who don’t.
This is why America should have sided with Germany during WWII.
USA IS #1 it's not that bad it's just gonna be hell for a while

fucking great you beautiful otter
Men rights are just as important.
Christelle she say she's a Feminist, Feminism is not about man things, Humanism is better than Feminism, but they still want to Play the victim.
Black Iron Brand she never said they weren't
Yes, they are important. But, as a male, and this could also involve your age too, you don't necessarily understand the crud that women have to go through. Things like less payment, sexual harassment, and being compared to as the 'weaker sex' are normal, everyday things for some
women. Tell me, have you ever walked down the street and been briefly and rudely hit on by a woman? I think not. Has your co- worker that you have the exact same job as gotten twice the amount you did, even if they missed a day when you did not? And, when you grow up, you will not have to (not all women do it) give birth to a child and sometimes be cut open to get to said child? Oh yeah, and on a monthly basis have blood come out of you? And horrid cramps that feel like someone stabbed you in the stomach? Yeah, you shall never understand.
+CaAngel Sister Yeah I've asked some girls about this and all of them told me that when guys hit on them, its usually always respectful. The case of some random guy being totally inappropriate happens once in a blue moon. Believe it or not, most guys are not douches. And about the unequal pay, the figure you're referring to is an average number across multiple jobs and it is of TOTAL earnings, it is not comparing hourly wage person by person. And on AVERAGE, women tend to major in things that lead to jobs with less pay, plus things like maternity leave do play a part in total money earned. If in fact a woman is getting payed less than her male counterpart for the same job and have worked the same hours, you can easily take that to court and win. And no, the court will not discriminate because you're a women (actually courts tend to be lenient towards women compared to men). And what do you want men to do about the whole birth and menstruation thing? That is simply human anatomy and physiology.
Each sex has their own struggles. It's not fair to say that women should be treated special because they're unhappy. Trust me, men have problems that women don't understand either.
+Christelle ok.
The fact that there are actually people in the comment section bashing feminism is beyond disgusting. EVERYONE deserves fair treatment and the ability to make our own decisions about our bodies!!!
Male circumcision has nothing to do with feminism.
Please look back to where I said "everyone deserves the ability to make decisions about their bodies" If an infant is circumcised then the ability to choose what happens to their body is taken away. It isn't necessarily a part of feminism but it is on the same page of taking people's choice away is wrong.
Kellsie Mae
Feminism is about giving women choices and opportunities.
That's not all there is to feminism, its about achieving equality for women, and everyone really, feminism has always been linked to other civil rights movements. Feminism is about eliminating gender roles and treating EVERYONE as a person. It started with the right to vote and have a job, but it has gone beyond that now.
***** Oh absolutely! If I were to hurt you, I would expect you to do the same back! But the thing is, I don't put my hands on people, but yes, I do believe that women can be just as abusive as men and if they are they should receive the same punishment.
Crazy how times have changed and you were once demonized for providing this completely logical argument to the world. Thank you for speaking out for those who were afraid to speak on this because of the misogynists that ruled the internet back then.
Um not really she actually was really annoying back then and perpetuating falsehoods like the wage gap. She got slot cooler over the years and eventually stepped away from the radical feminist community and embraced her more open minded nature. If anything this video didn't age well lol. Also who are these misogynists? You're referring to a time when people would call you a racist or sexist simply for not being as far left as them. The only difference is those people managed to gain influence on youyubes higher ups so you can't even say certain words without being demonized.
You are a feminist because you are a moron. Its people like you that played identity politics with reckless abandon to the point where men are now destroying women in womens sports. Thanks so much for that sunshine.
@@pyroAdapt misogyny is not as simple as you think it is. It is very complex and it’s very deep in our society’s mindset, sadly.
Misogyny is, for example:
People thinking that women aren’t ‘made” for more intellectually demanding jobs or they aren’t supposed to be scientists.
Seeing care and nurturing as a feminine things
Expecting women to be wives and mothers but not for example doctors, lawyers, entrepreneurs etc.
The ban on abortion (which basically means that women are not made to decide what’s good for their bodies. The ban on abortion gives power to men to decide what women can do and what they can’t do)
Women being seen as emotional by men rational and logical
And so on
Well Lacie you finally got to me in a way I have to say I won't watch you after today.
man that's fucked up
Sorry you can't handle the truth or a woman who can think for herself, but not surprised given America's current fucked up Christiofascist culture.
feminism is women wanting world supremacy cuz they all hate men and they are not strong if i hit that girl in the face she would cry
K that's not true
ALSO, 1/3 women are already getting abused, you guys are already hitting us lmfao
Two words two genders
Where?
Bernardo Patiño Read a Biology Textbook.
Sebeki 2 When people draw the distinction between sex and and gender, they usually refer to gender as the social constructions around sex.
Sebeki 2 Some societies have, for example, a different gender for trans women. Why is it a gender? Because these people don't fit with what they'd call 'real women' or 'real men'. You could argue that it is trabsphobic, but these categories don't really assign them to the gender they were assigned at birth. And you know why they're valid? Because a lot of these transgender people actually identify as that category, so they ARE that category. The scientific term for these genders is 'cogenders'.
Cobalt World I was saying that the two words that mean something is two genders
Her Feminist Logic: Says "Feminists having hairy armpits is a stereotype!"
2 minutes later (literally) she picks her arms up and has hairy armpits. Smh.
Why is that bad though.
xXSilverSparrow32Xx cause she said it's only a stereotype and she has them.
Hypocrite basically
because its gross... how is that even a question
Jaden Sheets No, not hypocritical, not all feminist fit that stereotype, and she only fits one of the one's she listed. All she did was state that there is a stereotype, and she happened to fit one criterion. Nothing about that is hypocritical.
