| You made a lot of arguments in your post, and it's going to take a lot of work to unpack them all. But I'll say right away - starting your post with "What evidence of sexism do you have?" is a bit laughable. There's a lot of evidence of sexism in our industry. But it seems that you are unwilling to consider any of it. If you truly believe that western feminism is the REAL sexism, do you think there is a chance to find any middle ground or agreement on this discussion? I have something to say about almost everything you wrote, but I'll pick the thread on one spot that I think has the most potential: > It seems like misogyny usually just means "something a woman hates" as opposed to actual overt discrimination and mistreatment Well...yeah? If there is a concept, or behaviour that men happen to not mind, but women on average/generally/mostly do, and an environment that contains mostly men either actively promotes that concept/behaviour, or tacitly ignores it by looking the other way, that is going to create an environment that is hostile to women! Now you might say, that's not inherently a problem. But what if this is an environment that doesn't inherently benefit from an imbalanced gender ratio. Then those behaviours, that hostility, is actually actively funnelling viable capable women out of the environment, and there is no meritocracy to ensure that it can occur. > Many of these same activists now even refuse to define what a woman actually is, Casual transphobic dog whistle? Disappointing. |
