Is it just me or does this shitshow sound just like what MRAs would like us to think about feminism: that it's about individual privilege, bossing each other around and competitive victimhood? www.nytimes.com/2020/03/17/magazine/the-wing.html?smtyp=cur&smid=fb-nytimes&fbclid=IwAR2pMMsGKIHpVx9O7bFi2aL9aCgOeb2-su1wpCJREHG0Vo5oO7CJ_yylIzU

Although I guess if you don't know what a woman is you might not be very well-versed in actual matters of women's liberation. Blah blah utopia, blah blah empowerment, blah blah girlboss etc.

The Wing sounds like absolute bollocks- and the fact Hilary Clinton and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have praised it supports that view.

“ Luxury Feminism” I wasn’t brave enough to read the comments. The article was a hatchet job though. The only named witness for the prosecution being a non-binary professional witch.

The article was a hatchet job though. I agree, and gleeful about all the mudslinging. It sounds like a mess but that's nothing to do with feminism or 'empowerment'. I wish people like this would listen to themselves, they all sound off their nut.
Libfem trifle, pink nonsense slopped into a bowl of money.

The NYT has been a leader in mansplaining, misogyny, and the promotion of the backlash against Feminism since the 1970s. Different decade, same old bollocks.
