DiscussionPick me women, male identified (aligned) women, and feminism
I saw on one forum, a woman who said the next waves of feminism needs to devise strategies for the phenomenon of pick mes. The trans ideology couldn't have taken over without the substantial support of such women. They have basically helped to undo the gains made by feminism.
It got me thinking. We all know there are male identified women who placate and defend men, and center men even in spaces where it's not appropriate or warranted. I've had male identified feminist women come after me and pick fights with me, in a conversation about decentering men and the women who center men.
Here's what I think of male identified feminist women.
I think that male identified feminists extend the hand of friendship and understanding to males. But men are not willing to do the same. So what's the point. I think that If you think men can be changed, that male socialization is 100 percent to blame for misogyny, that they just need to be taught to not be misogynists and sexµal predators, I think you are mistaken. I'm going by what I'm seeing in real life. Men don't care about women's suffering and plight. They are the reason for it. They are the reason why we have the patriarchy and we are having our rights stripped from us.
I think we need to fight harder for ourselves. The just be kind feminism hasn't worked at all. Why do we need to consider men and their feelings all the time. Modern day liberal feminism is totally male centric. To be honest, I'm kind of angry that we dont have a strongly woman centric woman first feminist movement anymore.
