Social How Hillary KILLED Feminism For A Generation

[Lord Coke]

So support for feminism is on the decline in young people. Interestingly, a young democrat man is more likely to believe feminism is bad for society than a older republican man. Is is possible the pendulum is swinging back to traditional gender roles. Is it possible people are beginning to realize that feminism has destroyed the nuclear family? And by doing so destroyed America? I think this is a good thing. What do you guys think?

 

[HockeyBjj]

Well that’s a really stupid take

 

[Papi Chulo]

Our society is definitely still governed by the feminist viewpoints.


I think the pendulum will swing back more conservative but only a little


Feminism got women out of the home and into careers, but female overall happiness has declined with this change over time

A bit hackish to blame Hilary, or ‘kind of kidding’ blame her, for the root of this shift has more to do with academia in general, and the people who come out of university. Sure, a person like Hilary wasn’t good, not unlike other labeled (self-labeled, too), including [insert label] CEO’s, many of whom are just greedy, duplicitous people and not role-models. Clinton was for equality…but was a Warhawk. It isn’t her causing the alienation, though; it is actually a lot of people that wouldn’t vote for Hilary.

Add another to the Killary kill count

I think militant feminists should really grow some balls and fight for some waman's rights in parts of the world where it's actually necessary.

Seriously, actually growing some balls might help them in that venture.

I doubt Hillary had much to do with it. Feminism in the West is just growing less and less relevant as time goes on, there are more pressing issues that need to be solved. By all accounts, Western women are doing pretty good for themselves, and the less self-centered ones have moved towards solving problems that concern groups that are facing bigger obstacles, and the problems that concern humanity and the planet in general.

Like with every social movement in history, you eventually reach the point when you've pretty much accomplished the goals that were initially set, and feminism in the West has largely reached this point. The people who remain in the movement, and who are the most vocal about it, are basically just arguing over minor things that have little to no impact on the average woman's life. There's just not a whole lot of room there to make a true impact if you want to improve people's lives, and that's why most of the people have moved on.

I think her attacks on Bill's rape, molestation, and sexual assault victims let everyone know it was all symbolism and no substance.

To be honest, I'm not sure you can have a consumer-based economy and not live in a feminised society.
Women, by far, drive the majority of consumer purchases, and the entirety of modern, advanced societies are essentially built - directly or indirectly - around meeting feminine needs.
From film to food, everything is targeted at women and your economy is, more or less, built of the back of their buying habits.

That's probably the primary motivation underpinning female empowerment at the end of the day.

When I first got into marketing, I remember reading up on the Torches of Freedom campaign and how - through leveraging "equal rights" narratives and employing well-know feminists as the influencers of the time, cigarette sales in 1920s America shot through the roof, largely by pushing them onto women as a sexual taboo to be overcome by empowered women.
It's a little amusing, and very illustrative, that feminists were selling cancer to women and calling it empowering - not much has changed in the past 100 years.

The actual effectiveness of the campaign has been called into question in recent years - but looking at the commercialisation of social justice narratives, even given how it's jumped the shark, I don't have much doubt.

Nah, the pendulum hasn't swung back yet but it definitely will within the next 5-10yrs. Not hardcore, but there will be a return to more traditional things because there's so only far Left you can swing before it comes back - and we're currently seeing male rapists being housed in female prisons because "feelings". So yeah, theres not much madder things can get,.

Thank you for my first lol of the day haha

you can tell if it isn't a good idea to take a youtube video for anything beyond entertainment

if they titled it with hyperbolic all-caps ADJECTIVES for clickbait purposes

 

[Sakurabaism]

Feminism is on the decline because transgender/gender-queer are on the rise. incidentally, Lesbians, Gays, and Bisexuals are seen as obsolete identities by the younger gens, hens the focus on hundreds of genders, transgenders and non-binary (they erased 'transsexual') as the crux of the movement since Feminism is sex-based ideology at the core.

In short, no, the pendulum doesn't swing back.

I find it hilarious that most feminists simply don't understand their movement and ideas were funded and promoted to the masses by rich white capitalists who realized 50% of purchasing potential (and taxation!) was being left on the table.

The whole thing is and was spurred by money, not literal rights lol.
