[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was a radical feminist, Andrea Dworkin, Simone de Beauvoir, TERF, all of it, until I became pregnant. Procreation and the cost of creating life to women is the reason men and women will never be equal.

I’m no longer feminist, I’m a realist. [/quote]

So, you think gendered norms are okay, that it's okay to pay women less for equal work, that women must stay home with the kids, can be fired for being pregnant, must take her husband's last name and can be denied body autonomy?  Wow. [/quote]
Gendered norms exist for a simple reason, they are axiomatic to life because life is created and birthed by the female species. Every single thing regarding gender relations bows to this single fact.[/quote]

Can we be friends irl? I’m so exhausted of being expected to be a smaller less hairy man. [/quote]

Men and women can be equally valuable without being equal.[/quote]

What sort of Orwellian doublethink is this?[/quote]

If men and women were equal, we would see women regularly beating males in athletic competitions. We’d also see them raping and assaulting at similar rates as males.

Of course neither of these things are true and never will be. [/quote]

I don’t think anyone is arguing that men and women are biologically the same.[/quote]

Yeah, not a single feminist has denied there are biological difference between genders. That's science. Feminism is about social constructs that disadvantage one gender in favor of another, usually male.

If there were gender equality, women would receive equal pay for equal work, medical and safety study would be inclusive of women, women would not  disproportionately be living in poverty, they would not disproportionately be victims of DV, Congress and CEOs would not be disproportionately male, and, probably most egregious, they would have body autonomy. [/quote]

Serious question - do you really believe that domestic violence is because of “gender” inequality?
[/quote]

There isn't a single cause for DV but gender iniquity is one of the leading causes. Have you not perused the literature? [/quote]
