Negative stereotypes about environmentalists and feminists are engrained in society, according to a new study.
Researchers from the University of Toronto quizzed over 400 Americans about both types of activists and received 'overwhelmingly negative' feedback.
The most common words used to describe 'typical feminists' included 'man-hating' and 'unhygienic' while 'tree-hugger' and 'hippie' were attached to 'typical environmentalists'.
Revealing their findings in the European Journal of Social Psychology, the researchers say these character attacks 'play a key role in creating resistance to social change.'

Weel it’s no secret feminists types could benefit using some feminine deodorant...
many feminists are lesbians and 75% of lesbians are obese. figure out why they are sterotyped as man-hating and unhygenic.
The reason for this might be that 'typical feminists' are rather frequently man-hating and unhygienic while 'typical environmentalists' are tree-huggers and hippies.
Dirty Hippies.
You should have seen those women supporting Wendy Davis in the Texas legislative session. That should make for some quality campaign ads if she runs for gov. But those pink tennis shoes. Wow.
I saw them, remember I posted stories of them.
I wanted to take a bath in isotope soap after seeing/reading of them.
I call feminists, baby killer and Bull Dykes.
I call environmentalists whack jobs who need to get a job to take their minds off their BS agenda.
I saw a couple in Walmart the other day. Butch haircuts, stocky, tough-looking.
Braided armpit hair. Raid underarm deodorant. Fat.
Like single-mothers and streetwalkers, real life is nothing like Hollywood portrays them.
No bias here......
Whatever happened to 'people are entitled to their beliefs"? Oh, yeah, that's only OK for Leftists.
I don’t like feminists, and I’m female.
I got flack for marrying young, having two kids in my 20s. They complained that I didn’t do enough for my career, professional development, etc.
I said I was a female engineer, often in classes with single digit female students and 50+ men. Then I worked in most male workplaces - as a woman, and later, mother.
I stalled professionally while taking breaks for kids and not travelling heavily. Fast forward a decade, and I have two kids in elementary school, while they are in their late 30s trying to have kids or find a partner or saying childlessness is just as good because they are liberated.
They never accepted my choice to be a part time employee and mother. Though there is plenty of vitriol for stay at home mothers, at least they get the support of female relatives who did the same and mothers who are also at home.
Funny how freedom to choose didn’t include balancing two worlds.
Most of the lesbians at my gym are NOT obese.
Not attactive, maybe, but not obese.
We should be grateful to Hillary Clinton....she did us all a favor by virtually destroying feminism. Her silence about her sexual predator husband’s many misdeeds, including sexual assault and sexual harassment, showed modern feminism for what it is...nothing more than a political tool for the left.
“My pretty-girl allies stick out like a sore thumb amongst the corn-fed, no make-up, natural fiber, no-bra needing, sandal-wearing, hirsute, somewhat fragrant hippie-chick pie wagons they call “women” at the Democratic National Convention.”
That’s Lady Ann Coulter giving the prizewinning definition of “feminists”.
“Pie wagons”......love it!
That is most likely proof that fat people do not frequent gyms, rather than evidence that most lesbians are not fat......
