    Feminism in the 70s, 80s and 90s was women trying to be heard and taken seriously.

    Forced quotas are because nothing changed and the rise of fuckheads like Tate is directly related. Too many men think that feminism is a zero sum game. i.e Women getting more rights means men are losing rights. Despite the fact that all they want is EQUAL rights.

      It’s because they know deep down that their lifestyle is built on the backs of women and minorities instead of on their own effort.

      To be fair, men will lose privileges. Before they had to compete only with other men for that juicy executive position. Now they also face women, lowering their chance to get the job. That’s just one example and it is absolutely necessary for this to happen.

        Losing male privilege is not losing rights that’s a distinction often missed.

      Despite the fact that all they want is EQUAL rights.

      And that’s the lie. Try to tell those “equal rights and quotas” people the same should apply to men in jobs heavily dominated by women and a sizeable and very loud part of them will explode in your face screaming and slavering because you dared to even mention the idea of equality.

        Tbh, I’d think men would self exclude from these jobs because they’re afraid they will look less masculine working them.

          These jobs do not pay well, so they already struggle to find anyone to work those.

        Jobs heavily dominated by women are not well-paying jobs, so no one cares. Are there even countries that have quota for women outside of executive positions and politics?
