Cant agree with all of the above. Sorry.
Some of the feminists seem always to want to find an enemy. Yet they don't seem to be supported by many women - whose concerns are feeding themselves and their families and defending them from a bigger GST, maybe.

PS
If someone who supports women is a feminist, what's someone who supports men? A humanist?

Can't we desire a society where everyone gets a fair go? Or is that too much to ask?

When you have popped out half a dozen kids and cared for them day in and day out including half the night,(with babies), for nought moneywise from society and being stood over to explain every cent spent on groceries andchildrens needs etc.by selfish men,and it was only a short 55years to 70years ago come back and give
an opinion.

Risk? millions of women died in child birth and a lot still do around the world in poor countries. Plus they have to live with their insides hanging out and no bladder control after having too many babies because of their selfish husbands. who then leave them for a
younger woman who doesn't have these problems(as yet).

Then there are the men in Africa, one in four who admit to raping innocent women and girls, that's only the ones that admit to it.
I saw this on Dateline or Four Corners not long ago.

Is it any wonder women rebelled in Western countries.
It was quite obvious to them that they were getting a very
raw deal from the men who ran the government and society.

The Western world is like a shining beacon in civilised ideals and
enlightenment in the world.

True we struggle to be the civilised, humane society we aspire to,
nevertheless, we a are streets ahead in this to most other countries
in the world. That is directly because of the sharing of power and ideas in the Western world by women.
It is the societies who oppress women that are cruel, hell holes.
Overpopulated and incapable of providing for all the mouths they need to feed. So they run to Europe in search of territorial resources
to sustain them.

It is a well researched and observed fact that in societies where women are educated and empowered.eveything changes for the better for the whole society and country. However if men are educated nothing changes because all they care about is the big sex blog that takes up so much space in the front of their brain,

There is a saying

Women are crazy
Men are stupid
Women are crazy because men are stupid

That is so true.
The stupidity of men exasperates women.
The trouble is it is always the less intelligent who fail to realise they are less intelligent.

I have found over a lifetime of observation that this is certainly true of most men I have ever met.

The big part of their brain dominated by sex, makes them handicapped
Whereas women have more brain cells available to use in more areas.

Lol Cherful, don't you hold back now, just tell them how you feel : ).

All jokes aside, I agree with your take on the Western history of female rights.
However, I do not share your obvious dislike of men in general.
There are plenty of fine men in our community who agree with equal rights for women, and I believe we would not have got where we are today without that fact.

Waverley, sorry but ALL feminists ARE communist ANTI-humanists, they are abusing innocent men & children, always have been, always will be. NO child on earth will be safe until every one of them is in jail or dead. femi-NAZI storm troopers are the people smugglers who imported FGM & islam into the land of OZ. How sick is that?

people who support men are egalitarians.

we had a society where everybody gets a fair go until women got the vote, then all hell broke loose & child abuse has been worsening ever since. feminism = child abuse & poverty creation. Their own stats show child abuse worsening over the last half century. They are just deflecting blame away from the source, themselves.

CHERFUL, oh dear, we are living in the past aren't we.

1, women died in child birth until Prince Charming the doctor solved that problem with science & men died hunting wild animals for the food women eat, in wars to PROTECT women, in work place accidents to provide for women & children you lying idiot.

2, Really, there are primitive people in third world nations abusing & killing each other, WOW, i did not know that MEN from western nations had been trying to end that misery UNTIL communist feminists stopped them.

3, women in western nations rebelled because the 1% wanted to divide & conquer the 99%. Because your brain is smaller you fell for it, have dedicated your life to child abuse & poverty creation.

4, sexual slavery is alive & well in the land of OZ today thanks to communist feminism.

5, It is a well researched and observed fact that in societies where ALL men are educated and empowered, everything changes for the better for the whole society and country. However if women are educated everything changes back to poverty because all they care about is the big shopping spree that takes up so much space in the front of their tiny brains.

6, there is a scientific fact that YOU have 14 billion less brain cells than i do.

We seem to be moving further and further away from some of the points poor old West made when he was reviewing a book letting men speak about what was in their hearts.

Ah well- issues of sex and sexuality (which someone started calling gender).......
They affect us all. Even domestic violence is an issue for everyone, according to a discussion in The conversation: and not just an issue heterosexual men need to address.
