dittany you name called me et al on a thread.as an example of feminist thread gone tits up

you have done this before

i have never singled you out

you are want to be abusive

The feminist board is not the place to debate the premise. At least, not over and over and over again. It doesn't need much debate, imo, as the evidence of gender based discrimination is all around.

earwicga · 25/11/2010 23:48

But the conversation is about you dittany - about your habit of calling anyone who disagrees with your opinion an 'antifeminist'.

You were 'highly personal and abusive' towards a whole group of women and didn't like it when you are called out for it.

i think people have capacity for free thought and reflection.on a number of topics.even so called antifeminism-and perhaps to ponder the willingness to apply the label so freely on mn

Ha ha! You don't like your actions being reported, but report mine.

Loving the projection.

'Debating the premise of feminism it self is.'

No, it really isn't. It keeps feminism relevant.

Debating specific points isn't anti feminism. Debating the premise of feminism it self is. It's not difficult to get your head around.

scottishmummy · 25/11/2010 23:38

no as you arent moderator or editor dittany.what is clear is people make own mind up

frankly you can call me tallulahbelleantifeminist doesnt really matter,nor does it deter me posting,contributing

but the name calling is bluster a false construct.so ignore dem anti feminists becomes the command

do any of you ever wonder why there was recent threads about mn posters not liking the feminist board. or discussion at conference about rebranding feminism

are they all antifeminist too?

Tortington · 25/11/2010 23:34

'there's no harm in making the connection that you probably are one.'

Apart from the fact that it is completely irrational, no harm at all (to anyone who can see through the bullshit).

scottishmummy · 25/11/2010 23:29

of course antifeminsit is pejorative term on mn

A piece by Cath Elliott about actual antifeminists.

www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2009/jan/28/women-gender

From Wiki:

'Authors Patai and Koertge argue that by labeling these women "anti-feminists", the intention is to silence them and prevent any debate on the state of feminism. It represents "an enormous extension of women's power, allowing any sort of criticism of either women or feminist ideas to fall under the watchful eye of their ideological guardians."
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antifeminism

Some people the term rather liberally and as a term of abuse rather than when it is warranted. This makes them seem to me like 'cry wolf' people.
