First, thanks for stopping by!  I’m always happy to educate.  While you’re making a statement of opinion instead of asking a question, I’m going to pretend that you’re asking me to back up my claims and are here for answers.

Second, this is going to be a long post.  This is Tumblr, so I’ll keep it as short as possible, but really… there is a mountain of feminist history going back over 200 years documenting the awfulness that is feminism. If I had the time, I could fill books with this stuff.

While I do believe that feminism has become a hate movement since the 1960′s, more specifically feminism is and has been a supremacy movement since its inception.

I’ll go back as far as the mid 19th century.  Before 1839, it was custom under English law (and countries which inherited English law, such as the US) to automatically give custody to the father on divorce.  Unfair, right?  Was the feminist solution equality?  Something like shared parenting, perhaps? 

Enter Caroline Norton and the Custody of Infants Act of 1839, which was the foundation for the Tender Years Doctrine.  This mandated custody of children under age 7 be granted to the mother in all cases.  The father had no recourse unless he could prove the mother was an adulterer.  In 1873 this was expanded to include all children under age 16.  The Tender Years Doctrine was written into law across the US and remained so until the end of the 20th century, alienating generations of children from their fathers.  Even today, with the “best interests of the child” standard, courts still recognize a maternal preference.  Mothers tend to be automatically granted custody while fathers must sue for custody.  This has resulted in a devastating 18% custody rate for fathers.

Next to World War I and the White Feather movement, which used female power to shame men into dying en masse. 

Onward and upward to 1923.  Ever heard of Alice Paul?  She was a real hero of the Women’s Suffrage movement.  In 1921, a year after the 19th amendment was passed, she introduced the Equal Rights Amendment.  By 1923 it was soundly defeated by… guess who?  Not misogynists, not conservatives… A coalition of feminists led by the League of Women Voters.  Why?  They wanted to preserve female privilege enshrined in law, which they would lose if the ERA made them truly equal.

Let’s move forward to 1971.  Erin Pizzey, another true hero who opened England’s first domestic violence shelters, noticed pretty quickly that a majority of the women entering her shelter were “equally as violent or more violent than their husbands.”  Feminists were so enraged by such an idea that she suffered harassment, death threats, and bomb threats which chased her out of England.  The feminists followed her to America, though, where they shot one of her dogs and stole two others.  What is this once great supporter of abused women doing with herself today?  She is now a leading voice in the Men’s Rights movement and advocate for equality in domestic violence support.

Erin Pizzey’s findings have been reinforced by over FOUR DECADES of research.  What did feminism do with this?  It created the Duluth Model, which blames all domestic violence exclusively on men and the mythical patriarchy.  It continues to be the cornerstone of domestic violence support across the US, despite being debunked in 1999 by its co-founder.  Feminism and the Duluth Model is the reason why there are literally ZERO male domestic violence shelters in the US and men who call hotlines for help are referred instead to batterers’ programs.

Those are just a few points in history that highlight what feminism is all about.  While feminism was forgiven for its supremacy during the first and second waves because women actually lacked rights back then, it’s quite a different story now that women have not only legal equality but legal supremacy over men.  You can see in these points that things clearly changed from exclusively championing female power for much of the history of feminism to the more recent violent misandry.  

So what happened?  Christina Hoff Sommers has been a feminist longer than I’ve been alive (and I’m old in Tumblr years) and documents this well in Who Stole Feminism? published way back in 1994 - which should give you a hint as to how long feminism has been lost.

My answer?  By 1963 feminism had won.  The Equal Pay Act was the last major legislative hurdle women needed to have all the same legal rights as men AND keep all of the female privileges the ERA would remove.  Feminism had essentially fought its way into irrelevance.  What now?  What to do?

The bat shit hit the fan in 1967 when paranoid schizophrenic political lesbian Valerie Solanas published the SCUM Manifesto.  S.C.U.M. stood for Society for Cutting Up Men.  Here are choice tidbits:

“…overthrow the government, eliminate the money system, institute complete automation and eliminate the male sex.“

and

“…”the male is an incomplete female, a walking abortion…. To be male is to be deficient, emotionally limited; maleness is a deficiency disease and males are emotional cripples.”

and my personal favorite

“To call a man an animal is to flatter him; he’s a machine, a walking dildo.” 

With quotes like this from a murderous nutter like Valerie Solanas, any sane person would reject this entirely, right?

The SCUM Manifesto helped set the direction of third-wave feminism.  It continues to be widely read in Women’s Studies courses today.  It gave free license to feminists to cast off the shroud of equality and embrace supremacy. 

Today, feminism is a shadow of its former self… Wallowing in lies, half-truths, and fantasy.  While it is most noted for its misandry, feminism’s primary victim is women.  Third-wave feminism depends entirely on the victimization and infantilization of women.

It concocts fantastic narratives like the The Wage Gap myth based on a real statistic that shows no such thing.  It invents Rape Culture by ensuring that men can not legally be raped by women thus allowing it to ignore the fact that women make up 40% of rapists and, in education, place the burden of proof on men.  It flails about, searching for something, ANYTHING to make it relevant and lands on total nonsense like manspreading.  It even spreads like cancer to make itself somehow relevant in racial equality despite its long history steeped in racism.

In conclusion, third wave feminism is misandry.  The two are inseparable… and both are an abomination to anyone who wants equality over gender supremacy.
