To think feminism’s biggest blind spot is female entitlement?

if that's what you think feminism is you need to think again.

Stupid question in the OP, in that case. Since you don't apparently know what feminism is.

oh the irony...

What on earth have you been reading and who by? Speaking as an older white feminist, this sort of argument makes me cross. Women have struggled throughout my life to be taken seriously in financial matters and in employment. Many of their ideas have been stolen by men and the contribution of the woman quietly forgotten.
Just have a proper look at what women did in both world wars including spying and espionage.
No, currently women don't fight on the battlefield but we have a massive contribution to make. Good grief. Oh and sex not gender.

Exactly!

Try demonstrating it then. Big generalisations about any group, doesn't scream intelligence.

I don't fear using any word, can you stop talking for "women" to fit your little narrative? Which was exactly my point earlier.

I love how disagreeing with you or having a different view is just not "misogynistic" but also "right wing" now. 😂

But apart from that it's MEN trying to shut us up and telling us what to do and think, isn't it (maybe you are a man, how would I know after all, it's an anonymous forum)

Or turning perfectly normal requests/behaviours into words with negative connotations. My favourite being "nagging". Woman asks a man to do the bare minimum in the house, but doesn't want to ask for fear of looking like she's "nagging" him.

Agreed. It's also typical misogynistic and right wing tactics, make words into insults, so that women fear to use them.

So how many posters on the thread so far have mentioned the patriarchy, apart from you?

If that's true, why do married men live longer than single men, yet single women live longer than married women?

Of course it’s not true. I was honestly trying to understand what the OP was trying to say.

I am actually, does that help you?

Thank you. I doubt that’s all he’s struggling with

Even though I mostly intrinsically disagree with OP I do have one example. But while it's an example he might use, I still don't think it's a good one becuase of reasons I will explain:

DS works as an exercise instructor. Most of his clients are women. Sometimes, they say things that, if a man said them, would be hugely inappropriate, sexual harassment etc. I think that's the kind of thing OP might want to use as an example of his "female entitlement".

But even if he did, I wouldn't agree for two reasons: 1. I certainly think those sorts of comments are very inappropriate and if I heard a woman say them, I would call her out 2. A woman's inappropraite comment doesn't usually come with a corresponding ability to physically overpower a man. Having said that, one of the reasons I think these comments are inappropriate are because DH might struggle to complain about them as these women are clients and the gym would most likely be inclined to want to keep them sweet. But then, that goes back to my point number 1 above.

Many years ago, I worked in a big City firm. One of the senior people was a very attractive man. I came back from a meeting one day to discover the (all female) team had printed out a picture of him and stuck it on the wall to enjoy. I immediately took the picture down. Yes, they were not in a position of power over him, but it was deeply inappropriate and I reminded them that if one of the male team had done that with an attractive female boss, it would have been considered very bad.

So while it does happen, I don't think that makes it okay and most of us would agre.

Well aren't you clever?!

So not when a guy argues but is abusive then. OK

What about when men talk over me or completely ignore other women when they are debating or arguing about something? I’ve seen this loads.

Is that what you mean?

Well yes. Its human nature to think in a situation of conflict we are right and the other person is not. Otherwise it wouldn't be a conflict, would it? And yes, self reflection is a good trait.
However I actually asked you for an example where you 'as a woman' failed to do this when a man would have done so. Because the comparator is all important. Without it you're simply describing an aspect of human behaviour, not one specific to women.

Why do you think this is anything to do with feminism or all women though? This is iljust a pattern of behaviour that any man or woman could fall into. I don't think you understand Feminism at all.

I think we're all waiting for an actual example. Something along the lines of: John and Mary are at the office. John says/does X. Mary says/does Y. The response is Z.

I can translate for you. What the OP is trying to say is that feminism is shit and women are nasty.

He's just struggling to find his words at the moment.

No woman I've ever come across in my life has believed that females are the more sensitive of the sexes.

Plenty of men seem to believe this, though.

🤔

Which isn't even true, of course. Women criticise women all the time. But when 98 per cent of all sex crimes and the majority of violent crimes are carried out by men, it's only natural that we feminists spend more time talking about the problems caused by men!

I really don’t get what you’re trying to say?

Feminism doesn’t work because women don’t criticise themselves, is that it?

Of course, it's about emotions. Anger is an emotion. Control is a tool many people use to manage their emotions.

Yes, that accords more with what I’ve observed than the OPs assertion.
