The Problem with Feminism

The Problem with Feminism

This article serves as a critique of the Feminist Movement but also as a critique of political movements in general because they all tend to do the same thing; shift the problem they purport to address to another place. In the case of Feminism, a prime example of this phenomenon, it purports to address the problem of divisiveness and inequality and, instead, just changes the form of divisiveness and inequality, shifting its results to another sector of the population. In this case, it creates substandard conditions for men and boys.

It is a fact that we have spent more time medicating boys than we have educating boys. We effectively shut them down and medicate them when they show signs of having “too much energy”. A mass of boys are on “hyperactivity” medications and fewer of them are going on to college; meantime, more girls, women, are going on to college and completing their education successfully. Women and girls are given more opportunities and treated as if they need more attention, while boys and men are treated as nuisances that need to be “dealt with”. Therefore, we are seeing more boys and men in the streets, not knowing why they feel like trash, and eventually some of them act on their frustrations (mild word, here) and start blowing people away at the mall or movie theater, or just die in the gutter or a jail cell.

In the meantime, the Feminist Movement has served to create and further exacerbate this problem. It carries an ideology that characterizes males as predators, as dangerous and unworthy of any kind of care; the problems that males have are considered secondary if not non-existent. This has led to the justification of the subordination of men in all social areas, the workplace and even in the family.
Read on for a breakdown of this problem with Feminism.

Uses Divisiveness to Fight Divisiveness

The tactic of Feminism is to point out the divisiveness and inequality in the social system and counter it by advocating more divisiveness; by collecting in their group, opposed to a fictional idea of men and just to men in general, while following an ideology. Either way you slice it, if you say this is my group opposed to your group, that is division. Ideology too is division, used to differentiate yourself from others.

The Feminist outlook also serves to belittle men, degrade them, make them seem brutal and subhuman. Feminist perspective characterizes all men as predators and encourages a feeling of “keeping an eye on them” and of being constantly suspicious of everything a man does and his motives. They squash anything natural that might occur between people in the name of their half-cooked ideology.

Represses Men’s Sexuality

 Along these lines of seeing men as only predators, Feminism serves to repress men’s sexuality; men are not allowed to compliment a woman or look at a woman, and anything they do can be construed as creepy, sleazy and predatory. Therefore, men are constantly watchful, unnecessarily, in terms of what they do and say and some will give up entirely trying to get their needs and desires met; the friction and unnecessary accusations make it not worth it.

This, of course, distorts the mind and men begin to question their own natural tendencies. Women control the situation, seeking supremacy and not equality.

Men learn to revile themselves and believe their every sexual desire is loathsome and bestial. If you are a man, you are told what you are allowed to find attractive. If you like thin women in miniskirts, you are a pig, of course.

Assumes Women Don’t Control Anything

As already stated, women dominate certain sectors of society; including education. There are also laws that favor women and the justice system favors women in many instances; men are more likely to go to prison, for instance, even though women commit the same crimes. Statistics are often manipulated and wrongly stated by feminists to make men seem more dangerous and worthy of punishment. This has a lasting and horrible effect on men’s lives and truly needs to stop.

When it comes to child custody, domestic abuse and other cases of assault and abuse, women have the upper-hand. In workplaces dominated by women, women have the upper-hand. In social situations, women tend to dictate what is acceptable and impose it on others. This is old and on-going.

Does Not Acknowledge the Problems Men Have

A feminist is more likely than not to belittle the problem of a man and also belittle the man. Like most of society, feminists judge men as disposable and think a weak man is worthless. If he says he has a problem, they don’t think it’s real or important. They also tend not to acknowledge the problem even exists.

Feminism long ago fell into that trap of in group and out group; you are either for us or against us, you either kowtow or get shut down and alienated. Ideologues of Feminism spout a lot of good rhetoric about caring about people, about equality, but what they practice in day to day life is subjugation and coercion.

Fortunately, many people have become sufficiently tired of it and are calling them out. It’s about time.
