Risk-averse pinkos "chose" Sloe Joe's "safety circles" and "just wear the damn mask" over the Mean Tweeter's "superspreader" rallies.
Of course aided and abetted by CCP engineered fraud and other weapons.
For a few decades, feminists have been sneering that if women were in charge, there wouldn’t be any wars, the disadvantaged would be cared for, and the world we live in would be much better.
I look around me and I see it isn’t so.
“women”
How many years, my whole life and more, have feminists lamented (and it is accepted by even pear-shaped feminist men as a fact) that, as you said:
"...if women were in charge, there wouldn’t be any wars, the disadvantaged would be cared for, and the world we live in would be much better..."
This is the essence of the "male toxicity" nonsense.
Women are every bit as capable of men of venality, corruption, cruelty, avarice, pride, greed, wrath, envy, lust, gluttony, sloth, murder, selfishness, deceit, and everything else...especially deceit and hypocrisy.
I will also say that while men are guilty of this also, I think it is more common in women to wear a hypocritical mantle of virtue while knowingly engaging in evil.
The rise of feminism is in direct proportion to the decline in the proper practice of masculinity by men.
Cultural ascendancy, my derriere.
My bet is if we ever figure out who the people really running this country are, we will find that there are damn few women, if any, among them.
Depends on the feminism and feminist.
I’m an old school feminist.
Equality of opportunity.
Period.
The current incarnation of feminists are tools.
They just don’t have the brains to realize it.
Communism.
Again.
In new clothes of “wokeness.”
“The rise of feminism is in direct proportion to the decline in the proper practice of masculinity by men.”
Only for men who allow it.
I’ll say it again, your hypersensitivity is not my problem.
I don’t think its the women, I think its the grant funding that is the problem. You have entire disciplines being trained now to gear their efforts toward obtaining grants in order to function rather than in building a better mousetrap. The problem is not the women, the problem is that grant funding is resulting in what we would get with communism.
Blaming the women with this sort of half-baked twaddle is just offering cover to the lefty conspirators by encouraging the oldest identity politics skirmish.
The practice of true masculinity (I’m talking of that which is proscribed by God in the Bible: sacrificial love, leadership, authority, provision, protection are probably tops on the list) and true femininity (submission, keepers of the home, serving as nurturers) are the very things that sinful man and sinful woman reject.
The world’s understanding of feminism today is a distorted view of the Biblical portrayal of God’s desire for the woman. The practice of [most] men today is an equally distorted view of the Biblical portrayal of God’s desire for the man. We simply reject His standards for our lives and lean upon our own understanding. The result is the chaos in roles, relationships, identity we see all around us today.
“Only for men who allow it.”
The phrase suggests an underlying attitude that, no doubt, has exacerbated the rabid feminist response we see in the world today. True biblical standards remove the notion that it is for men to “allow”/”disallow”, but for God to lead and direct. The more men (and women) humble themselves before God, the greater the chance that we become what He has called us to be.
Compulsion, exerting of an external force, may result in a response, but true obedience to God’s call on one’s life is the result of an Internal Force placed there by God. His plan for men and women is divine and cannot be carried out to its completion apart from His directing Spirit.
I’ve said many times: if you were from outer space, landed here and watched just one hour of television or internet goo, you’d conclude that:
*The US is 90% black
*The US is 90% women
*Every marriage is interracial
*There is no white couple with children, anywhere
*What few white men are depicted are weak, feminine, soyboy, dicknipple spoogepirates who couldn’t change a tire or even a lightbulb.
*Muslims make up 20% of the US population
I am neither actively practicing my Christianity or even thinking much about it although I can state without reservation that I believe in God.
I am not a scholar of the Bible but seem to recall it says fairly plainly that Woman was made from man and meant to be his partner. The roll of men and women are clearly defined and each has a place in the future of mankind. Men and women are created equally but they were also created differently with each having God given physiological attributes suited for the roll given them by God.
Women are built to bear children and nurture them. Men are created with heavier bones, larger muscles and lungs which suits them as the hunters and protectors of the family as was intended.
It has been this way until about 1970 when suddenly some women decided they weren’t “equal enough” and the women’s lib movement was born. It never really caught on except for lip service from men and a few pop songs. The reason is women are not men and they never will be. They simply cannot do what men can and they never will. How many women do you see turning trans sexual and joining men’s sports teams vs men joining womens teams?
When a man allows a women to dominate him both of them are miserable with the woman losing respect for the man and the man hating himself for allowing it to happen. Women want a strong man and men want a woman who is feminine and knows who she is and is comfortable with that.
By 2050, the U.S. Muslim population is projected to reach 8.1 million, or
2.1% of the nation’s total population — nearly twice the share of today.
Who knows it’s a guessing game.....

Right on! There’s nothing you’ve said that I disagree with. The tantrum known as modern feminism resulted from the tantrum thrown by men who have rejected God’s standards (of behavior) for their lives.
Eve took the fruit and ate...then handed it to Adam and he ate...Which means he was right there next to her, ignoring everything that God had instructed him not to do and perhaps even said in his heart, “ladies first.”
