That's because the way you define conservatism and feminism. I have no problem whatsoever with women entering labor market, getting a fair payment, etc. At the same time, I don't want them to think aborting babies, denouncing men, etc. The fist list is a feminist issue that I support. The second is not, because I'm a conservative.

"That's because the way you define conservatism and feminism."

Are you saying equality of opportunity isn't a central tenet of philosophical conservativism and/or that it doesn't encompass support for ever single item on your first list & then some?

Additionally, I'd add that anyone with children of both genders should rightly be equally opposed to misogyny and misandry.

You still aren't making yourself clear.


"Feminism is the antithesis of everything conservatism stands for"
