Is there a humanosphere as well? Or would that just be plain ol' Fediverse?
I think that’s just most people.
Yes, but what most people think is not represented properly on mainstream social media, unfortunately.
This is basically my experience of western millennial women from upper middle class. But they do it unconsciously.
They read all the feminist literature and talk about it a lot. But then they for sure expect you to pay for everything and handle all practical things.. After all you earn more (because you're older, work more and didn't go for a useless art or HR degree). Also, you have to account for all bad things that happenes to other women in different places and time. Grrr..
They also feel very confused because of this big central hypocracy in their life. But whatever you do, don't mention it or question their self-image. That will just cause more work and expenses.
I'ma go ahead and give you an acknowledgement here as it is my experience with this population, too... You know... Before the downvotes come running in.
In the femosphere, as in the manosphere, there’s an overarching belief that life is about survival of the fittest, that men will always hurt women and that will never change, so strategies are needed to conquer the opposite gender.
I'm not a massive fan of the guy they nailed to a tree 2000 years ago for saying maybe people should be nice to each other once in a while, but the violent reaction to that suggestion no longer surprises me.
Look we just need to move around small bits of green paper and everything will be fine.
Wait, femcels are a legit thing? I thought that Lemmy meme group was just a joke.
I feel bad for all the dumb guys who get robbed blind by all these con artist grifters. Whether it's someone like Andrew Tate or some OF model, they're getting taken for a ride.
If there's some young man reading this who has or is considering giving money to a manosphere grifter or some cam model, just know they don't know you, they don't care about you, they only want your money. You're nothing but a mark to them. Get off the Internet, go to church, or go to school, or to the library, or do some volunteer work in your community. Meet a nice girl, in real life, treat her right, and cultivate a real, lasting relationship.
Lots wrong in this article...
“I used to be a feminist before I saw the effects of third wave feminism,” Batra said. “This has forced women into masculine roles where they are pursuing men.”
But that's dumb, for a shit ton of reasons it works out best when women are the ones who first show interest rather than men hitting on anything that moves
I think if it were true that women made moves first sometimes, it would help all of society in ways we cannot even comprehend. It would not be a bad thing. But it's still pretty rare in the places I've lived.
The gender war continues, and my nonbinary ass is sitting back and not getting involved.
"If there's war between the sexes then there'll be no people left..."
... Only left leaning people.
First they came for the gendered minorities..
On one hand? Woo equality I guess
On the other? This shit again? We gonna get a Femdrew Tate or some shit? Eesh.
“It’s incredibly conservative, but it’s trying to reframe it as being this empowering strategy.”
That is the exact vibe I got about whatshername shooting the dog.
