Current Events > How big of a problem is it actually: Feminism

(+) Yeah! (+)

Day 1. Radical feminism. Do you think that this is a problem in society, and if so, who is causing it and how should it be addressed?

Also accepting nominations for the next topic.

in the US it's like 2 or 3 at worst

1 is downplayin it and like head-in-the-sand levels of sheltered
4+ is hyperbole, radical feminism's not to the point where they're comin to collect your balls, calm tf down...

I think it needs to be more accurately defined what you're referring to. In our current hash tag generation, feminism seems more like a brand name espoused by a very large amorphous group. A feminist group at my company just got the board to bring in paternity pay. Which I know it's what you mean by radical feminism but it would still be quite radical by some people's standards.

Uh, TC, you know you changed the question between the topic title and the first post, right?

Feminism is fine, radical feminism isn't. Although I do think Valerie Solonas is very interesting.

The perversion of it is a big problem that is nearly on par with global climate change. When aliens finally visit Earth and they examine our burned out and lifeless cities, they'll point to feminism and say "Ohhhh, so that's why they went extinct."

(I might not be entirely serious.)
