VR is too expensive for mass adoption

Omg what have we become

No, I am assuming that they do the same amount of work per hour

You have not been on social media during that time period, maybe. It was everywhere which led some men to become antifeminist.

As for the topic, I am a feminist. The first and second wave feminism, that is. The equality ones. Not the pink haired screaming “all men are evil and should pay” third wave.

Actually, I’m kinder to women then men…

Yeah, the tech is there but content is not.

3D TVs. Not that 3D and very little content. Not worth the money.

If it is a diagnosed disease, then time off is no brainer. However, then they should not expect any promotions over other people without the disease (assuming equal work/hour).

Also, I find your insinuation that women take time off for ‘low mood’ and ‘being irritable’ frequently—as opposed to men—rather sexist and offensive, not to mention not reflective of reality.

I don’t have data, it is based on my observations of people and opinions. I’d be happy to be proved wrong.

inadvertently stumbled into the idea

Because anyone other than “feminists” does not have a brain to come up with ideas intentionally. This statement is the perfect example why feminism is being promoted in an extremely stupid way. You attack the very people who are willing to engage in constructive discussions by calling them stupid. Then, you are surprised when they fight back and call them sexist pigs. No wonder men hate feminism as a movement.

A clear certificate, then yes.

Flaw in your argument is that you are comparing states and one time actions with mindset and sum of many actions.

there’s no use talking to you.

Yet you did.

You are just proving my point that people get hostile if you use or don’t use some category specific words.

He killed Jews. It is not a fucking secret.

You don’t seem to have a problem with the use of labels when it comes to dietary choices

Well yeah, but I didn’t say there are only 2 possible diets - carnivore or vegan. There is a shit ton of diets in between - vegetarian, omnivore, eggetarian, pescatarian, etc. You have this messed up mindset that anyone who is not xyz has to be abc, never lmn or def.

What do you mean?

How? If things are getting better, why to make it an issue and disturb social interactions?

People are unique and everyone has varying opinions on every topic, so how can they be simplified to a simple yes or no. There is a spectrum for everything. People who are at extremes find it easy to fit in yes or no categories but everyone else feels lost.

For example, there can be a guy in a rural area who supports his family’s women by letting them go to school/college, working, dating who they want but he is very adamant that they should not dress and wear makeup like “whores”. Would you call him a feminist? Why or why not?

it’s probably good for social shame to be introduced for sexism, fascism, racism, etc

Yikes, this is a hard no. People don’t change their views like this. Also, you are being a bully if you shame people for anything. Just because you think you have a moral high ground does not make it okay to impose it on others. You are no different than religious evangelicals if you do.

I don’t mix things. I admire Hitler for being a vegan and pursuing art. I absolutely hate what he did with concentration camps.

But certainly the most relevant quality he had was his rabid, genocidal antisemitism, right?

Relavant depends on the thing we talk about. If we are talking about history, he isn’t winning any Peace or Humanitarian awards.

What’s the point? Words don’t mean anything. Positive actions are happening, that is all that matters.

Feminism is equal rights and opportunities for everyone. My added thing is equal responsibilities. This is the dictionary type of definition.

Most people (at least the vocal ones) are either completely sexist (both sides - feminazis and sexist men) or think it is only about promoting interests of women.

I can’t give you all the possible views off the top of my head but I’ll try.

1. If you are not a feminist, you are sexist. - There is no nuance or leniency for human nature. This makes skeptics jump to opposition because they feel attacked for their behaviour. Any further push only makes them more apprehensive.
2. Men have it so good - This is kind of a mixed bag for even me because it is situation and topic specific. Men have had better opportunities for some things like education or jobs, yes. But they have fared worse in some other things like emotions, expectations, dating, etc. Now, if someone who struggles with a lot of things is told “Men have it so much better”, they will not agree because any one person can only experience their own problems. On the other hand, there are men who feel women have it too easy with how they can earn money by selling porn, they can get out of situations by crying, how easy it is for women to get laid, etc. I don’t necessarily agree with everything but this is what I have seen people say. So, this makes “Men have it better” laughable for some people.
3. Where are the equal responsibilities? - Feminism promotes equal rights but (conveniently) ignore the equal responsibilities part. A lot of women like to be damsels in distress and also want to enjoy the perks of freedom and equality. This is something I personally despise a lot.

Well, I can only comment on my social group and that is the only group i am concerned about in this context. So, it is ‘most people’ for me.

If your behavior can at all be described as sexist, then you’re not a feminist.

I hate this polar thinking so much. Everything is not all or none, yes or no, black or white. People are unique and everything is a spectrum. Even Hitler had admirable qualities and if this makes you uneasy, you need to open up your mind.

The problem is grey area in what sick means when it comes to periods. Is low mood sick? Is PMS sick? Is pain during periods sick? Is being irritable sick? This makes it seem like an excuse at time.

Men should also be then allowed to take leaves when they feel like shit or something. Point is equal pay for equal work. Women can’t expect to be CEOs and stuff when they don’t put in equal work. There are women who get to high posts inspite of all these problems and I respect that. I guess it is more of an individual to individual thing about who puts in efforts, who is truthful, etc.

Agreed. I think as a whole society has started giving more value to words than actions. It is backwards, especially when social media is prone to creating echo chambers for words, and actions go unnoticed.
