Accused of toxic feminism

When all I want is for everyone, regardless of race, gender, religion, etc. to have equitable rights, means and support to thrive and oppose anyone who doesn't want that.

Imagine thinking that's toxic feminism.

Toxic feminism is hating men and everything that they stand for. Believing they need to be oppressed for their blatant abuses of power. For wanting every man to suffer for all their wrong doings.

I don't think I've expressed any of that,but maybe I have? Maybe if that shoe fits?

Hmmm...🤔🤔🤔

I guess the things I want to see in the world look toxic to those who want to oppress others.

I find when people accuse me of any extreme it's because they're already at their extreme and that changes they way they view everything.

But I also believe there wouldn't be a need for toxic feminism if there wasn't already toxic masculinity, which we all know has been happening for hundreds of years and to varying degrees from culture to culture.

Being men and women is the only thing that really separates us humans. That contrast is often a beautiful thing, but exploited at times by each of us.

I also stand for equality and forever feel the push back, always by, sorry but, white males. They're usually the ones who have a problem with equality, thinking it takes from them. If it takes from them they have too much. They have generations of entitlement behind them, so there's no getting through to them.

As men and women, we have different needs and all should be respected.

@ScreamingFox the only points on which we don't agree are

"hundreds of years" - I would say THOUSANDS of years

and "white males" - that is more visible in the US because white males control the politics and economy - but TMM exists and has through cultures and time periods.

I'm not proud of any of it.
