What Is Gender Feminism?

Xah Lee, 200404

In the society of human animals of latest century, there is feminism,
and there is gender feminism. Feminism is concerned about the equal
opportunity and fair treatment for both men and women. Specifically,
raise the status of women from their traditional roles and weak
positions for modern society. What they have done are for example,
women's right to own properties as men can, to participate in
conferences with men (aka voting), free women from freedom restraints,
not be considered as secondary to males, bring education to women. (all
these in the context of Occidental sphere.)

On the other hand, Gender Feminism has risen as a offshoot of feminism
in about, i dunno, late 1990 of America, lead in part by butch dykes,
and is engulfing and overtaking the traditional feminism. As we have
seen in our forum, gender feminists's concerns are about equal outcome
and equal sex. Aside from cutting off dicks of men, they tend to want
not any manifestation of sex in human animals. The things gender
feminists hang on their mouths or do are: women-hurting patriarchy,
rape of women's will, glorification of mentruation and c.nt, demand
more women in military and with special protections, formalize
flirting, erect sexual laws to equate sex, drill she and he
in language, promote gay rights  in particular of dykes who are
really men in the wrong body.

Feminism, as opposed to Gender Feminism, is not entirely dead, but is a
endangered specie. Some Feminists are now harrassed and forced-on
anti-feminism hats. Feminism as a movement is largely hijacked to
mean Gender Feministic ideals. As usual, a small percentage of
righteousness-sensitive people such as students and mawkish men, are
brain-washed into gender feministic world view. These minority but
often activists believe, as with most American one-track-minded
bleeding-heartism, that terrible things has been done, and justice must
be retributed by all means.

To be fair, i must say that i'm not yet very pessimistic about the
future on the issues of men and women. Because, even though the gender
feministic morons cry out loud and have done US wrong, but in general a
more massive and evil thing that is taking place in America is
putting it a check: Consumerism and Egoism. Each girl (and man), even
though might be influenced by Gender Feministic propaganda, each on the
whole is still mostly concerned about oneself and acts out in accords
to her or his own interests. And under our fantastic and wonderful
American capitalistic consumerism, girls and men are automatically
materialistic and selfish, which oftentimes are at odds with the
manifesto of gender feministism. (as we can see here that a thread
Consistency between beliefs and behaviors? has been raised.)
Meanwhile, i'm also glad that there are still some people in America
who possesses a thinking brain, including quite a lot of females, who
find it uneasy when the word feminism is uttered that has today's
connotations. (as we can see here in Rhondea's story and SCUM and
Misogyny and Masculism forums.) And, in our very Feminists forum,
i'm happy to note that there are still traditional feminists, and those
gender-feministically brain-washed are still savable, and a vast number
of non-White, non-American women who stayed quiet in the background who
simply wished a good life without the White Supreme Western
loud-mouthing ax-griding persecuting heart-bleeding
cat-mourning-over-mouse's-pain gender feminists doing whatever it is
that they are onto.

(btw, has anybody watched Kill Bill 2 that's selling rampantly in the
Consumeristic America? What a.s kicking blondes they have there. And
the Chinese sage characterized American (WASP) women as: bitchs all
they do is spending men's money. (quote inexact) Does anyone think
it is entirely bogus?)

'tis of the age
of Gender Feminists
hitting the American stage
questioning she and he
extols the queer and weird
and axing the womanly and manly
upon a glittering postmodernity
