Why feminism is ruining relationships more than empowering women?

Is it just me or you also observe that many females who are (so-called) feminists try to show that they don't need men and ruin the relationship with their partners?
I am not against feminism, but this isn't going in right direction.

I think today feminism is divivded into two distinct types...
... and that some have no idea of what it actually is.

Its name is unfortunate, as it today implies something very different to what it intitially intended to mean.

Some people make feminism this aggressive, man hating , man degrading, man manipulating ideal.

When what it truly is, is an attitude of equality.

Some feminism today is no better than misogyny 😔

@OogieBoogie I actually meant - Reset it. Shut it down and start again in sometime.
@Curvyvixen yes....thats a nice thought.

But we cant go back, there are no do-overs.
All we can do is work towards a better ideal in ourselves.

@OogieBoogie all feminists should switch to traditional roles completely and then just work on a thing or two to improve. Thats all needed
@Curvyvixen WHAT?!

Are you suggesting regressing the whole civil structure of social equality back into the dark ages where women own nothing , have no identity but as an owned object of their husband's ?

Are you insane ?

Imagine the legal and social repercussions of such an act!...
....Lesbian couples with no legal right to own anything ...
...single mothers made poor and powerless to care properly for their children.

And what about Eastern society ?
Is stoning a woman to death right ?
Is having no legal idenity to vote, to own property or be able to travel even within moral ethics?!

Its funny you make such a claim .

Becuase : you make it from the standpoint of living in a society that has put in legal and societal laws and standards that protect the rights of a woman .

So you can make your own lifestyle choices ....IN LEGAL SAFETY.

I think your kink has blinded you to over 100 years of women fighting to make YOUR life safe to be able to make such personal choices .

I imagine women in Iraq feel VERY different.

@OogieBoogie Women in Iraq need real feminism because here feminism has gone onto different path altogether. Not sending all to dark ages, it's sometimes better to follow the law of nature. Both men and women have their part to play and once we start manipulating that, we just become more unhappy.
@Curvyvixen what law of nature?
The strongest and fittest ?

You realise that today this has very little to do with gender ?

We dont live in the wild anymore .
We live in a manmade environment .

'strongest and fittest ' is less subject to 'brute force ' than it has ever been . In fact, its more geared to problem solving and people skills - which women are genetically geared for .

And if we go back 10's of thousands of years , many civilised cutures were matriarchal .
Irs only abrahamic religion that changed this.

I think you are confusing the law of nature with your own bias dynamic.

Every relationship is different .
Your ideal suits you , but its not an ideal for everybody .

Don't confuse personal taste with idealised structural social reform.

To each their own.

Personally id love a guy who has such confidence in his masculinity that he felt no need to enfoce it.

Something given is so much more treasured than something taken.

And humans have manipulated nature for the majority of our existence. Its in every part of our lives, from what we wear, eat, live in, work in, travel in and find recreational relief in.

Laws of nature are down to physics and science. 😏
