Is it possible to inform women they are wrong without it being "mansplaining"?

Yes, but you don't use words. You just kind of chuckle condescendingly when they start complaining about whatever it is.

it's a mistake to reject someone's ideology just because you have a problem with their personality.

Actually, it is not. Ideology is just a smokescreen people use to advance the cause of their dumb bad personalities. Therefore, only ideological arguments advanced by people with good personalities should be considered.

Wow. That's a surprisingly good observation.
Surprising because it's nontraditional, but still resonates with my experience.

It's social-connectedness which determines whether a person is happy or unhappy.

All this other poo poo is just missing the point, imo.

idk the feminism that says women should have the same rights as men, like voting and having jobs and getting college degrees, and having access to birth control and abortion and stuff, and being able to go out at night without worrying about being assaulted... that was good stuff and i'm fully on board with that.

the feminism that says all sex that wasn't preceded with complex consent forms notarized by a lawyer is rape, or that misandry isn't a thing, or that if you have privilege you can't have opinions on things, or that all body types are beautiful and you should stop erasing my demigender arospec theta-omnisexual identity.... that feminism doesn't really do it for me. gonna say it's not really my cup of tea.

Mansplaining is simply a particular case of one person explaining to another person "how they should be feeling" but they do not share the same experiences or perspectives, but they disregard that and move on with the implicit assumption that their experiences and perspectives perfectly explain the situation.


That's a good definition of a real phenomenon. If only you had fought harder to defend its appropriate use by criticising the people within the movement who overapplied it, then it might still be an accurate working definition. But trying to do that would likely have seen you ostracised for being anti-feminist or at the very least accused of 'misplacing your ire'.

Like it or not modern feminism is what you see in blogs and click-bait, twitter and tumblr. That is where the majority of dialogue and education takes place. Few will ever go on to read more intellectual sources before ditching the learning role to take on the fighting the patriarchy and educating the ignorant role. The active ideology in practice is what pretty much everyone in this thread is criticising, not the basic desire to improve women's rights, or the efforts of more legitimate activists.

I like all the goons in this thread whose opinions on feminism and women are 100% identical to redpill slogans, blurfed out with zero prompting, coated in a weak, extremely unconvincing layer of 'irony,' fedora-powered deep philosophy and what almost sort of sounds like experience with actual women

Man I didn't want to engage with you because you're one of my favorite trolls, BUT I feel compelled to point out for the sake of other posters who are apparently buying into this crap that this is the same argument people have been using to oppress gay people, black people, etc. for ages. "Oh these people are weird/rude/unlikable, better ignore their politics" "wow, why are these people so weird and unlikable and rude for no reason"

if you are opposed to:

feminism
social egalitarianism
compulsory education
science
corporatist economics
evidence-based, utilitarian public policy
a strong and highly mobile interventionist military that works aggressively to further all of the above
a highly-centralised continuity of government

then step away from the political apparatus or die, imo
