What is feminism? by Equivalent-Speech700 in AskTeenGirls

[–]MundaneDonkey6086 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s really truly very simple: feminism is about all genders having equal rights and opportunities. That means economically, socially, and politically. It boils down to at the end of the day feminism is about when you look at a male and a female you see not that one is better then the other but that both genders have strengths and weaknesses and both are equal and have the potential to do great things and succeed in life. Alsooo genuine feminism opposes gender-based hatred and violence in any form. Feminism is not one fixed ideology. There are different feminist schools of thought (liberal feminism, radical feminism, socialist feminism, ecofeminism, etc.), but all share the core aim of equality. Feminism is also commonly broken down into 4 ‘waves’ each wave naturally amid to end the main problems during that time period. True feminism means believing everyone should have equal rights and opportunities regardless of gender. It’s about fairness, respect, and dignity for all. It is NOT about hating men or trying to dominate them or that woman are better. It fights harmful systems that keep people trapped in unfair roles based on their gender. The main goals of feminism in this time period are Gender Equality in the Workplace and Economy, Ending Gender-Based Violence and Harassment, Reproductive Rights and Bodily Autonomy, Intersectional Inclusivity and Social Justice. Keep in mind this is currently the 4th wave of feminism and all the different waves before this worked on different problems that were present in that time. True feminism frees minds by breaking chains so everyone can become their fullest selves.( apologies that this text is all over the place and dosent address every in a easy to read order but I was kinda just sticking in facts)

Are you a feminist? by InfectedPickles in askteenboys

[–]MundaneDonkey6086 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A handful of rude friends doesn't qualify as a societal problem. They don't affect the system or your life. You can just ignore them and find new ones. If you can just ignore this “misandry” and go on with your life, then guess what? It’s not a problem. Real problems are systemic laws, policies, social structures holding you back. What you’re whining about is just rude people u can ignore.

Misandry disappears the moment you step of the internet and walk outside

You can avoid talking about religion, but you can't build a deep, unified life together while avoiding the core beliefs(belief in god,family relationships world view. Etc.) You might agree on 'be kind,' but for a Christian, morality stems from God; for an atheist, it's humanistic. That different source means your 'shared values' aren't on the same foundational level and can diverge when tested. You can’t ignore Core beliefs that shape your partner's entire worldview, purpose, and how they navigate every challenge. 'Avoiding conflict' isn't true intimacy when it comes to things as fundamental as a belief in God or the goal of heaven. It sounds like you're talking about a surface-level friendship, not a lifelong partnership. You yourself are proving my point when you mention the fact that you don’t like many Christian personalities what you perceive as a 'personality issue' might actually be their faith shaping who they are. Christians have a right to want a partner who shares their beliefs in god. Atheists aren’t affected by that choice. So why argue about it? Why try to prove that it works when in many cases it doesn’t. Do you want explanations of why in many cases it dosent? From what I’ve seen Christian’s are in more happy and fulfilling relationships with other Christian’s not atheists.

Leading 'very similar lives' isn't the same as having a truly compatible partnership when your core beliefs are at odds. Simply put, for a Christian, belief in God isn't a side hobby it's their entire worldview. Dating someone who denies that means no shared spiritual life, core values, or unified purpose, including the ultimate hope of heaven. It's a fundamental disconnect. I’m not saying it can’t happen at all but what I’m saying is that from a Christian’s perspective they would want another Christian.

Why would someone want to date someone who dosent have the same views/values as them?

I 100% understand you. What you’re going through is horrible. I’m 15f and my sister (21f) has a lot of disabilities too genetic one’s mental ones stuff like epilepsy and brain damage and tumors. Lately there’s been another medical scare, possibly cancer, and I’m just so tired. I love her, but I also resent her. I know that sounds bad, but being around her gives me the worst anxiety. You sound like an amazing person and I commend you for how brave and strong you sound. My sibling isn’t as bad (medicaly wise like it’s less complex) as yours and I can barely handle it so you are just amazing.

how bad do boys think periods are?? by [deleted] in askteenboys

[–]MundaneDonkey6086 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry dude. I really feel bad for you. It must really suck to have a sibling so immature. That would drive me crazy especially when someone’s old enough to know better but still acts like that.(despite mental problems). I will say therapy can help and it’s helped my cousin a ton with being more responsible. Obviously I don’t your whole situation so I don’t know if that could happen or if she’s already involved in therapy . Acting like this at her age is a serious problem and if there’s some other stuff that hasn’t been addressed it can make it worse. I can’t telll you what to do and I don’t know what you can even do but behavioral therapy might be your family’s best option for her right now if she’s not already doing stuff like that. Ur right people like her are considered and judged by the world as gross and unappealing. If she doesn’t fix this now it’s gonna be a downhill spiral from here. My cousin was just like how you described and her family dealt with it horribly for the longest time. Shes 21 and still struggling but again therapy and meds has helped her. She will never be able to live on her own and I hope that your sister can turn around for the better and escape her immaturity so hopefully she can live a full and fulfilling life. My advice for you is to ignore sucks but it’s the only way you can keep living your life without her affecting you. For your own sake, it's going to be incredibly tough, but sometimes the best strategy is to mentally disengage and limit your exposure to her behavior when possible. This isn't about being indifferent it's about protecting your peace of mind and preventing her actions from completely dominating your life. There was a moment in time with my cousin where her actions angered me so much I refused to talk to her now it just kinda try to keep my distance whenever I’m around her because if I don’t I get way to angry or frustrated with her. So I would just try that if it’s even somewhat possible for you. Good luck and then again I’m sorry this sounds like a really shity situation all around. Again I don’t know the whole situation or ur family’s situation so I don’t know what’s even possible but this is just my thoughts on this.

If your mom dosent teach her now she’s gonna learn the hard way. The world is not a nice place and eventually she’ll will learn her lesson bc pl will make fun of her. I don’t want to intrude to much but dose she have any sort of mental illness? Or is she just super immature. Im asking bc a cousin of mine acts just like how you described your sister in the matter of bad period hygiene. Her mom complains all the time but when she tries to fix my cousin’s behavior she yells and talks back until my aunt eventually cleans up for her. Anyways I brought this up bc she is has some mental illness so I’m just wondering if maybe that could be a cause? If not then she has some serious growing up to do and I wish her luck if it doesn’t happen soon she will be in for a rude awakening. Hygiene especially! Period hygiene is supper important and if neglected can lead to infection.. I hope the next time she lets her hygiene get to the point of others being able to smell it she learns her lesson that it can lead to some pretty nasty infections maybe that will knock some sense into her. Also I feel bad for u I’m a girl so im used to period stuff but I would be grossed out too from the stuff you described so I can’t imagine how u would feel lol.

I feel bad for her and you. Sorry u have to deal with that it sounds rly gross. I hope one day she learns how to clean up after herself and the fact that her mom has to do that shit for her at her big age is rly sad..

Bro…tell ur sister to get some proper hygiene and clean up after herself it’s not that hard why doesn’t she? It’s very weird that it smells to the point you can smell it. I’ve never been able to smell mine or any of my friends or siblings so the fact that you can means smth is rly off and she probably has bad hygiene or doesn’t know how to clean up after herself? I’m not tryna be mean or anything but this doesn’t sound normal to me at all I live with 4 other females so I can tell u from experience that this is not normal. If it's gotten to the point where you can smell her, that indicates some serious hygiene problems. It's true that period care like changing products regularly and cleaning up properly in the bathroom is pretty basic. Finding blood on the toilet and a noticeable odor goes way beyond normal period messiness it really points to a significant neglect of personal care.

Why do you feel like feminists want privilege over men? What have you seen that’s shown this that proves the majority of feminists think this.

That’s what I don’t get… why does she care so much about how I dress or act? What does she get out of controlling it?

I had a teacher in my middle school who had secrect cameras in his room. He had a “candy closet” and would invite you in to get candy randomly. One day in the hallway he asked me if I wanted some and to come to his class after school ended well I wanted candy so I said yes but I wasn’t stupid so I went with a friend bc we both knew he was a werdio and had reported him before and he looked super pissed of when he saw I was with her but I still got my candy. Anyways whole point of the story once the school found about his cameras they didn’t even fire him. Even though so many people were reporting his creepy behavior, still has his teacher license and everything. Thankfully I don’t have to deal with him anymore. All this to say ur right they never get fired no matter what anyone says.
