I mean there's only so many man-hating feminists I can meet (this is irl mind you, this isn't even social media skewing perceptions) before I don't want to interact with ANY of them anymore 🥀💔
From my experience, not every feminist is a #killallmen misandrist. But every #killallmen misandrist is also a feminist
A few bad apples make the entire orchard shut down from expensive lawsuits or whatever the phrase says
Ok but when prominent 2nd wave feminists like Gearhart and Daly advocate for male genocide and several modern feminists ascribe to that belief system, it's not as simple as writing these folks off as "not real feminists"
They're a significant minority or sect of the ideological movement, at least
Gearhart literally wrote:
Every culture must begin to affirm a female future.
Species responsibility must be returned to women in every culture.
The proportion of men must be reduced to and maintained at approximately 10% of the human race.
~Sally Miller Gearhart, The Future - If There Is One - Is Female
Calls for male genocide are part of actual feminist history, not just an obscure internet echo chamber or something
Jesus Christ— I did not realize that those were views she’d seriously published. Looks like it’s some of her earlier stuff, but god damn. Makes the SCUM manifesto seem significantly less wild by comparison, now.
