My Blunt Response To Feminism 2.0

Updated on April 3, 2014

Feminism 2.0

Disclaimer: Firstly this is not targeted directly at women in general. If you are a woman and truly respect men and regard them as equals, then this is not targeted at you. This is targeted at gender ideologues and women with an entitlement mentality that share the thoughts in the video that is the subject of this article.

Recently I came across a promotional video regarding a supposedly "new" form of feminism called Feminism 2.0. Lets just say I was not exactly won over by what I watched. I have attached the video directly below and my rather savage response follows on from it. Hopefully this serves as a reality check for some and a reaffirmation for the rest of us, on exactly why feminism and gender equality are mutually exclusive.

Feminism 2.0

My Response

So let me get this straight. After 50 years of telling men they are garbage, marginalising men in society and even discussing the genocide of men in academic circles, feminists want men to be good boys and get back on the treadmill to work for women’s benefit while they die sooner? So after all this “liberation”, some women are now back-pedalling as they realise how “privileged” being a man in this world really is. ROFL. A snowball has a greater chance of surviving in hell than feminism does of convincing modern men to be slaves for women.

I don’t see any difference between this brand of feminism and mainstream feminism. The same wilful indifference and dismissal of men’s interests, needs and perspectives is there. As is the belief that women should tell men who they are and what to do with their own lives. What gives feminists or women in general the right to tell men who they are and what to do? Absolutely nothing. A vagina and the word “no”, does not magically grant women special powers to tell me what to do or other men for that matter. What it does do instead, is to send a red flag to any male, that such women are manipulative and are likely out to exploit them. We tend to give such women particularly in today’s culture a wide berth. Getting more men into relationships and eventually marriage for the benefit of the state by asking women to refuse to give sex to men, will fail. Oh and yes your agenda really is that clear. The looming government debt and the drop in the fertility rate is a worry isn’t it? No more government funds or new tax money. This is what happens when movements merge with state powers, enact decades of unrestricted social engineering and attempt to impose their will on the general population without any regard for the public interest or the long term consequences.

Believe it or not, but there is a limit to the value of sex for men and we really do have other interests that we get far more enjoyment from. It is all about biological tradeoffs and relative risks and returns in various activities. Men are also well aware now of how rigged the family courts are and how biased the divorce settlements can be. There are men in jail right now for failing to pay alimony and child support to their free-loading ex-wives which exceed their incomes. Debtors’ prison is a reality and the human rights of men are routinely discarded by our legal systems. More men are now aware of this than ever before and that number is growing. Son's have seen what has happened to their fathers. Marriage in modern times is nothing more than legalised slavery for men and withholding sex will simply underscore the manipulative and toxic nature of relationships for men in this sick society. I don't see any acknowledgement or discussion of these realities in this video with it's obvious gynocentric slant. That is typical to say the least.

This new brand of feminism speaks of dignity and self determination as if they are rights that are exclusive to women. So men are to respond to the word "no", get a good pat on the head when they are a “good boy” and be servile lap dogs for women? Here is an amazing thought, maybe men don’t care anymore. Maybe men are sick and tired of listening to what women want. Maybe men are saying to themselves, it is time for me to form my own identity on my own terms and direct the course of my own life in my own way for a change. But that is what is really behind Feminism 2.0 isn’t it? The realisation by feminists that all men have had to do all along is withdraw from marriage and society in general, to bring their agenda to a screeching halt. Men thinking and acting independently of female influence is a very scary scenario for insecure women, feminists and the state isn’t it? The slaves have escaped the plantation and the wool has been pulled from men’s eyes. The MGTOW social phenomenon and the men's human rights movement has got them worried. Too late, men spoke, feminists did not listen and now men have responded. You reap what you sow.

Men are not civilised by women. This might surprise feminists, but men are not animals. Like women we do have humanity, but unlike women society spends two decades in childhood and adolescence dehumanising men so we can be good disposable drones for society in adulthood. That is what the messages of "manning up" and being a "real man" are all about. If feminists bothered to see men as human and not as utilities they would see that, which clearly this video indicates they still don’t. Secondly, helping remove fathers from young boy’s lives which feminism has helped do for more than three decades with the state, has had the affect of creating a number of dysfunctional young men. If you want to uncivilise men, the removal of fathers from young boys lives by the feminist movement and family courts, reads like an instruction manual. You civilise men by respecting men and valuing their humanity and this version of feminism fails to do both of these things in a spectacular fashion.

This video speaks of a partnership between men and women. How is women telling men what to do by saying “no” indicative of a partnership? That is an example of a dictatorial social dynamic and only an ideologue would claim otherwise. If this was a really a partnership, then men would be listened to and their needs and concerns would be incorporated into the discussion. I see none of that in this video. As per usual, it is all about women this, women that and how men need to change to suit women’s needs. No attempt is made to value the male perspective on gender and society.

I am a generation Y male and I would like to say on behalf of young men that we don’t give a dam. We really don’t. This sick gynocentric culture has told us continually since birth that we are defective and inferior beings. We are done with your garbage and we are going our own way. Personally I am looking forward to watching your house of cards implode.

Get over your entitlement, gynocentrism and victim mentality and start respecting men and then perhaps we can start a partnership.

Until then go to hell.

Yours sincerely,

A generation Y male.
