Feminists can't all speak for each other

no, but they can at least speak up against hatred in their own ranks

I've never seen a feminist hold another accountable for spreading hate

All or most of the feminists who wield power and infest institutions and academia are hateful

You need to read that comment again @~Red~

I'm willing to speak against hatred among feminists

But do you hold any power

Do you make legislation or policies

The people I'm talking about are the top feminists

Like the presidents and top members of NOW

And other feminist organizations

have you, ever, had a conversation with another feminist about the fact that some feminist messages are hateful or promote hatred

just anyone, has the conversation ever come up, have you been apart of or seen anyone in a feminist group speak with any sort of self awareness or questioning about whether something might be of questionable moral standing

because I haven't, and I've looked

and its the most disturbing thing to me about 4th Wave Feminism

and I don't mean any accusation or insult... just have you ever seen anyone question 'the movement' in any form?

but heres the big question... would you feel SAFE questioning it yourself? in public forum? if you brought up any sort of doubt or criticism would you feel safe saying it?

So wait you've never seen anyone question or have a go at feminism?

Online or irl

not someone that identifies as a feminist

when speaking to other feminists

Oh fair enough, yh that makes sense they don't go out their way to shut extreme feminists down

internal debate is discouraged and ostrasized in my experience

NOW stood by the lady that wrote SCUM.

Exactly.

And I bet they support Bobbitt, et al.

Oh, a lot of feminists protested her even being tried on a court. They threatened to cut off a hundred penises - from what I've heard

And when I say NOW supported the SCUM lady, I mean they called her a great feminist and smuggled one of her manuscripts out of the mental hospital.

As in - the leader of the local chapter personally visited her and snuck it out.

Yep, breaking the law herself. Shameless behavior.

Would it be ok to post a GFM link if it has to do with trying to get protections extended to boys when it comes to MGM?

I'm trying to get resources and research materials like medical texts.

@Shadowguyver If you mean FGM, sure. Go right ahead.

GoFundMe link. I'm trying to get states to extend the laws protecting gitls to boys as well.

But I need to get research materials like medical texts and access to academic sites.

Hmmmm. I'm not sure about that @Shadowguyver . It's difficult to tell if these things are genuine, after all. We haven't even run any of our own funding drives yet. We'll have a <@&516181909554987038> huddle, and talk it over - so any info you can give me on what you have already put out would be good. If you have anything you'd like me to consider for www.menarehuman.com let me know. In the mean time, there are some sites that let you buy second hand textbooks and ebook versions very cheaply.

I can send you the link and let you see what it entails. I thank you for the consideration.

That would be very helpful. Thank you

Part of the reason we're holding off on this is that we haven't seen you around on here before. As far as I'm aware your first post was about go fund me, which is a little bit of a red flag even if you are fully genuine. If anyone else can vouch for you, that would certainly help though.

Understandable. I'm on R/Mensrights all the time, even posted it there.

Same name, you can look at my history.
