quote:
what you and your coworkers think does not affect how modern feminist theory takes form. i also view myself as a feminist... but in the old way. modern feminism (note i've been distinguishing the two from the start) wants to raise women on a pedestal and oppress men. kind of like an affirmative action thing. they want to create a society with no hierarchy (because it's masculine and bad) and none of the things that the masculine society created. and this is the mainstream.
could you please substantiate any of this? Do you think it's weird that feminists don't realize that putting women on a pedestal and oppressing men IS establishing a hierarchy? Is this a flaw in their worldview?
