Can we talk about liberal feminism?

It's late and I've had wine and so this is probably a bit disjointed. BUT liberal feminism seems like a complete clusterfuck to me. It's all about 'reflecting on things' and apologising. God, so much apologising. I don't think white heterosexual lefty men spend their lives saying 'mea culpa' do they? But white het women seem to be on a mission to self-abase. It's really fucking odd and quite disturbing.

Is anyone else seeing this or do I need to start wearing a tinfoil hat or something?

Almost every single adult person recognizes prostitution is wrong. You are not being original there.

Like every single rape slavery apologist, you have determined that despite the overall wrongness there's still some wiggle room for acceptance. You have your wiggle room based on judging female sexuality, and the jurors for Girls Gone Wilds had their wiggle room based on judging female sexuality.

I am not sure which kind of 'feminist' I am.

I am vehemently gender critical. I do not think men should be centered in feminism or that they are more oppressed than women, thats just ridiculous. That view alone apparently makes me a radfem...even though there is so much more to femisim than the trans thing, the trans thing seems to be dominating everything right now.

Main things that have been mentioned on here
SAHM - Fine if its a choice rather than a 'I am a woman so it has to be me who gives up my job' or the man demanding it solely as the woman is the mother.
Prostitution - Nordic model fan here. Totally makes sense and would help so many exploited women.
Porn - My views on this are a bit all over the place. I actually think porn plays a huge part in rape culture. But amateur porn (where both parties explicitly consent) I have absolutely no issue with. But amateur porn is unlikely to be quite so graphic and violent and everything as 'professional' so maybe this is why I don't have an issue with it as such.

Not sure if I would be deemed a 'radfem' for my other views? not that it really matters to me which kind of feminist I am. just liberal feminism from what I have seen, seems to centre men and be all about what a man would want tbh
