Elephants had this idea!!

So I'll start

"we're not a homogeneous mass..."
"I don't like to be too narrow..."

in that case Custardo, you can see the bingo card as a helpful guide to use when slagging off feminism :o

And of course for me (a feminist) there is a negative slant to antifeminist comments! Am I supposed to pretend that I love being told that I hate men, or that I need a good seeing-to to put my stupid ideas out of my head?

Also, to be honest, this wasn't a thread set up for debate. There are loads of threads for debating, this was one for collecting examples of comments as explained above. (Not that I am the OP obviously). Start a thread to debate on by all means. And before scottishmummy revs up, yeah you can express yourself anywhere you like, of course. But don't expect everyone to be keen to debate everything, all the time. It's like going onto a thread about good songs for weddings, and insisting on starting a debate (and complaining when not listened to) about how music is just pure shite from beginning to end.

I don't understand the premise of custardo's post

Tortington · 26/11/2010 01:01

i understand the premis of this thread, but there is obviously a negative connotationt o antifeminist bingo which does seem to give the term 'anti femininst' a negative rather than neutral starting point from which to debate - if we are as wukter suggesting debating anti feminisms premis.

i think i am an antifeminist

Confused

Remind me not to jump into a thread a the end again. Elephants, I thought that was pretty clear in your OP ...

ElephantsAndMiasmas · 26/11/2010 00:52

blimey it's been busy on here.

For the record since I suggested an antifeminist bingo:

  • the word "antifeminist" is not one I use for people (AFAI can recall), because I don't find it that helpful except for the self-declared antifeminists e.g. MRAs etc.
  • I suggested "antifeminist bingo" in the sense of "a collection of comments commonly used to denigrate or deny the need for feminism and feminists". Stuff used to express an opposition to feminism (for example "all you feminists just need a good shag") = antifeminist, to my mind.
  • it wasn't directed at anyone or sparked off by one single poster (although sweet of scottishmummy to think that we all remember her post ), the whole point of the thread is that the same things get thrown around again and again by different posters, and also e.g. journalists, colleagues, family members IRL etc.

Might put a grid together at some point.

Tortington · 26/11/2010 00:49

i gained some

AnyFucker · 26/11/2010 00:45

mathanxiety · 26/11/2010 00:28

I wasn't answering anything SM. I was asking about your post.

Thanks -- I do c&p well if I do say so myself.

Noticed you didn't actually say anything substantive in reply.

scottishmummy · 26/11/2010 00:22

i have work tomorrow,see you all same thread.i'll be here in a blocking hanging around kind of capacity

LoudRowdyDuck · 26/11/2010 00:22

dittany, I may be wrong, but I think scottishmummy is the poster who likes saying that all threads are meaningless and it's all 'talk on a screen'.

I think she might be pulling your leg by engaging with you here.

Anyway, I heard a great addition to this thread: 'You feminists don't really like men - you're only married because your husband is a pushover'. Hmm Hmm

scottishmummy · 26/11/2010 00:19

well clearly is,if y'all need to get back on track

or does back on track mean look forward to seeing your contribution tomorrow?

wukter · 26/11/2010 00:17

FGS what pov SM?
Simply saying your pov is divergent is pointless.

scottishmummy · 26/11/2010 00:15

Of course the classic "political correctness gone mad" accusation.

I.e "Why can't I say that women are inferior to men? It's political correctness gone mad I tell you!"
Usually said while reading the Telegraph in my experience

scottishmummy · 26/11/2010 00:04

how come others can engage and challenge me tonight but to you it is all,nope cant see what sees what you on about

all ideologies are up for examination.nothing is sacrosanct

and it isnt anti feminsit either to express one pov on a movement

scottishmummy · 25/11/2010 23:57

again you erroneously presume.have never said i dislike feminism dittany

those are your words,your assumption

scottishmummy · 25/11/2010 23:55

of course anti feminist is a mn pejorative term,as is derailer,troll

certainly not a fond salutation
