Man hater. Topless rights. Higher pay. Dike rights. Or freedom to pursue happiness without gender playing a role.

One of the above.

@abe182 would you read and think about the post by blueVeins? it would seem you fall into his category 2.
do you think his first definition is groundless?

thanks for participating

@SatyrService I don't think I personally fall into any category. I stated in my last phrase, freedom to pursue. This is what feminism should be.

Thanks for attempting to put words in my mouth.

@abe182 no not trying to put words IN Mouths.
I am looking for all the spectra.

i particularly like
[b]freedom to pursue.[/b]

a key idea for all people.

@SatyrService OK good. Feminism has been hijacked by many groups each with their own agenda. The vision has become considerable blurred.

SatyrService · M

@abe182 i think you are on to something there..
it seems hardly is some group with a productive idea is hardly started but it gets taken over, by hostile person, seeking a scapegoat
