mr-cappadocia:

Would feminists feel that equality has been reached when 50% of the prison population consisted of women? When 50% of workplace deaths consisted of women? When 50% of suicides consisted of women? When 50% of homeless were women and 50% of women lost their children in divorce?

Does anyone reading this believe for a single solitary moment that feminists would EVER fight to deprive women of their children to benefit men? To actively work to create that 50% of women who lose their children to men. It would certainly be equal.

Somehow, I don’t think so. This is why I think Feminism and Feminists in general are full of shit.

The practical application of the stated goals of their ideology (equal rights/economics/etc etc for all) would require women to ACTIVELY WORK AGAINST THEIR OWN INTERESTS.

i have several simultaneous comments

1. yes

2. well, 51%

3. what is your proposal? the last paragraph strongly implies that the only solution is to increase the number of homeless women, women committing suicide, etc. to balance the numbers out. this seems impractical.

   what i would actually like to see is not equal representation in tragedy, but a reduction in tragedy: no crime, no workplace injury, no suicide, no homelessness, and no custody battles. if these problems concern you so much, you should work to address them, not flaunt them as evidence of how hard up you are by demographic proxy.

   feminists see things that are worse for women, and want to make them better for women. you see things that are worse for men, and apparently want to make them worse for women.
