Why do some feminists oppose misogyny but support gender ideology?

I recently ended up in the man hating side of tiktok, which is a place I tend to be in agreement with. I’ve seen several women bravely battle stupid men in the comments who manage to reinforce everything being said.

I’ve seen a pattern though that these women, who seem to be very up on rules of misogyny, and aware of how problematic too many men are, usually have pronouns in their bio, and occasionally will complain about being bullied by terfs.

I’m baffled.

How can they be so up on patriarchal nonsense yet miss the fundamental misogyny in gender ideology. How can they deny the evidence that trans identified men are just as much of a problem for women if not more as they want women’s rights and spaces.

They can make endless videos about how hateful men are because of the way women are treated, and how women have to budge up and make room, yet trans identified men are women, and anyone who says otherwise is a massive bigot. I don’t understand.

I thought it wasn't even that she couldn't travel: it was that her husband hadn't done a damn thing to fix the aircon in the car, and was blaming her having tried and failed to do so, and for not wanting to spend an hour in an overheated car with an asthmatic child and a heavy-coated dog just in order to pander to his mother's wanting to see him and the child. Or a meringue and I have the wrong thread?

Anyhow, yes, sniping may be fine if you're a Finn with a rifle and a LOT of trees to vanish into, but it's pretty futile on a board like this.

There was all that stuff on top of the chemo issue too. Poor woman.

And yet, FWR seems to attract that behaviour on a regular basis - which is a pity.

And if his stepfather was anything like the usual brute, he was even more angry and violent that his stepchild was "girly". I don't think dressing as a girl is likely to help small boys placate brutal adult males.

No, but through his child's eyes he thought it might. It was a fantasy of being treated in a loving and kindly way. A way in which he wasn't being treated.

What I meant was that the poor child probably made things worse. But he wouldn't know to expect that.
