Don't get me wrong here, I'm all for social justice and justice of all kinds, but from what I've seen, people lack perspective. In India, section 377 states that gay people can't have sex. I'm part of a group that advocates for LGBT+ rights. The court is reconsidering its decisions now. Just saying, there are bigger issues to deal with.

I have no clue what you are trying to say with the SCOTUS case. you surely must know that like India, the United States uses a federalist system with multiple layers of government acting independently of each other. The Supreme Court has no power to enforce rulings. There are still issues here where same sex couples are being denied basic rights, including marriage. |

I'm not trying to delegitimise anything, man. I'm just saying that I've noticed that people lack perspective, that's all. If you feel what you're doing is right, go right ahead. Misogyny and sexism is wrong, and I am in no way condoning it. Just something I felt like pointing out. |

What 3rd wake feminists are fighting for, I have no idea. Hell, even here in Delhi, there isn't misogyny and sexism among educated people. It's just the rural areas in the country. If I come to the US, I'll have to see for myself, you know? The US on average is better educated, and I'd expect it to be much better around there. I only have studies to rely on, not real life experience. |

As a point of reference, UNDOC stats put the female homicide rate per capita in India at 1.4, and in the US at 1, neither of which are very high.

Again, haven't been there and haven't seen it in real life, so I give you the benefit of the doubt. Like I said, I only have data and stats to rely on, and that's it.

we're all trying to arrive at the same goals, seriously. I believe in what you believe in, it's just that we've different approaches to arrive to said goals. No need to call other people trolls when they take approaches that aren't the same as yours.

you have no idea what blabla feminists bla okay. you are so informed about the US for one, what sort of society exactly would you say makes something like MeToo necessary? the no-misogyny-no-sexism society where somehow not even wage gap exists? if you don't want to be called a right wing troll, i would suggest you think about why you sound like one. guys, breaking news, racism amongst educated people does not exist. you know how I know? I haven't been called a n** in my life! |

I'm not saying there isn't any, or if I did, let me rephrase: it's falling at a baffling rate. in the next year or so, I really don't see a lot sexism-realated issues among educated people here, at least. Most people are taught this stuff, and there are a lot of government programs out here attempting to achieve gender equality. Really took off in a short amount of time.

and you, once again as 17 year old woman, have a good understanding of the degree of sexism-related issues and to what degree that is falling how fast. impressive.

You lived in the US, right? Did you face a lot of oppression or discrimination?

I live in the US right now, and work smack in the middle of "MeToo", take a wild guess.
You can start by looking at this board. Notice a lot of women around here? Notice what happens as soon as any woman - be that Björk or Darcy - is mentioned, here or anywhere else? what would you call what happens then? And - as stated before - show me one damn place on this planet where patriarchy is not the ruling system. like are you fucking kidding me, boy. the country where you claim everything is dandy and sexism is not a thing - has a president that ran with grab her by the pussy (and I choose to forget how many lawsuits for sexual harassment.) how ignorant exactly can you be. you think over 5 million women went for a stroll because the weather was nice, and somehow accidentally made that the largest single day protest in the history of the US? yea we like fresh air, that must have been it.

patriarchy - a system of society or government in which men hold the power and women are largely excluded from it.
women are not largely excluded, c'mon. it's 2018 ffs. |

today I learned patriarchy is over, too.
since your experience as 17 year old woman seems to be lacking right now, look at some stats, I suggest starting with the percentage of female CEOs globally. show me a country where the power structure is 50-50. one. I dare you. good luck. ffs indeed, today a boy taught me that sexism and misogyny isn't a thing amongst educated people, and that really we should shut up and be happy because hey, we have voting rights, patriarchy is over! what would I ever do without you educating me. I could have been mistaken to think patriarchy is still a thing, silly me, must be my cunt-brain again. marquis, I suggest you shut the fuck up. |

women's rights happen to be stomped on in the real world. we all have problems that need to be fixed, but blaming it on some "patriarchy" isn't going to do much.
and okay, I will. Habermas is super interesting BTW, I'm getting my hands on more of his stuff. |

Please do so.
because you need it, thanks for my new sig. (fun thought experiment - women's rights happen to be stomped on, your statement. so how and why is it possible to stomp on it and who does the stomping, can you think of a term that sums it all up? hint: you started it with "some" and ended on "archy.")

I'm just saying, blaming some "patriarchy" isn't. it's not much of a solution. you're claiming that there is a problem- and I agree with you -but we need a solution to the problem, that was the point I was trying to make.

answer my question. how do these rights happen to be stomped on.
and I don't know where you take the blaming part from. I asked you to tell me a single country on this planet where the ruling power system is not patriarchy. still waiting. you claim you want a solution for a problem after stating your male teenage expertise at what rate sexism is falling within a year and how it's not much of an issue amongst educated people, and really in the US, haha, they even earn more! - you are not looking for a solution, you are part of the problem. |
