    Angry Wikipedia and definition of antifeminist


    Looking for definition of antifeminist on wikipedia

    Antifeminism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Antifeminism is opposition to feminism in some or all of its forms. The Oxford English Dictionary defines an antifeminist as "one opposed to women or to feminism; a person (usu. a man) who is hostile to sexual equality or to the advocacy of women's rights.
    Antifeminist organisations are primarily divided into two main categories today. One consists of religious social conservative antifeminist women's organisations, such as Eagle Forum (United States), REAL Women of Canada and Endeavour Forum (United States). These organisations are primarily opposed to women's abortion rights, LGBT rights and liberal feminist equality legislation or international UN Conventions. The other main strand appears to be antifeminist men's organisations, which oppose feminist positions on child custody, child sexual abuse, rape and domestic violence. These exist primarily in the United States, Great Britain and Australia.

    "yeah, being anti feminist means being anti women..."

    A bunch of lies spread to the whole world, in criminal cinical way
    Could exist an honest woman/man in this planet believes that feminism in anything but hatred of males...?

    BTW it is worth to have a look also at Gender inequality - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    These sick people asre shaping the vocaboulary to repress the opposition, this is an Orwell project.

    So Wikipedia is relying on typical shaming tactics.

    Nothing new.

    The most offensive thing you can do to a feminist is treat her with FULL equality.
    Wife : "I dreamt they were auctioning off dicks. The big ones went for ten dollars and the thick ones went for twenty dollars."
    Husband : "How about the ones like mine?"
    Wife : "Those they gave away."
    Husband : "I had a dream too...I dreamt they were auctioning off pussy. The pretty ones went for a thousand dollars, and the little tight ones went for two thousand."
    Wife : "And how much for the ones like mine?"
    Husband : "That's where they held the auction."

    re: Wikipedia and definition of antifeminist

    since there is no agreed definition of feminism, how can there be an agreed definition of antifeminism?

    I think the old "bad boy" "Blessings" bob had the best definition of feminism I ever read:-

    "Anything a woman wants, and to hell with everyone else.."

    So antifeminism, to me, must mean an opposition to that belief..

    Simple really!

    You could say:-

    "A refusal to treat women's needs as superior to mens"..
    I started out an optimist, but nothing turned out right..
    Then I became a pessimist, but thats a life of shite..
    I sucked at being a realist, 'cos folks will always fight..
    So now I'm saying "fuck this shit!" I'd rather sleep at night!!

    re: Wikipedia and definition of antifeminist

    If being anti-feminist equates to being anti-women, does that mean all women are feminists? Simply not true. The Wiki entry is yet another thinly disguised attack by feminists to portray anti-feminists as anti-women.

    re: Wikipedia and definition of antifeminist

    I often think that when most mra's talk about "feminists" they really mean "women", but are too chicken shit to say it!!

    Still if feminists think MRA's hate women, who gives a fuck what the femitards think? I have seen the picture they like to paint and Id rather not look a tit..

    re: Wikipedia and definition of antifeminist

    Many dictionaries hold the same kind of definition.

    Miguel explains why in this thread:
    The Definition of Anti-Feminism

    I have amended Wikipedia's page, since primary descriptions of something should not rely on a dictionary. I have put the definition where it belongs and to help maintain Wikipedia's supposed "Neutral Point of View" I added a definition from IGAF.

    Great piece of writing there (mainly for its comments on what feminism truly is than what anti-feminism could be..)..

    Sadly spoiled by what is so often seen in the feminist-based MRM.. (yes, antifeminist MRA's are almost by defintion feminist based!).. That dumb assed claim to be "pro equality"..

    Not surprising, since anyone can edit Wikipedia and put what they want. It's quite obvious that this is from a feminist's point of view.

    Though they forget that women can be anti-feminist too, yet won't disclose that information.

    Right... but this entry deletion wasn't an edit - the changes Douglas made have been wiped from existence. Meaning, an admin or moderator (or similar high-level access) has made the changes.

    Changes by ordinary folk, like you or I, are reflected in a change-log.. the change-log doesn't reflect Douglas' edits, so they've been erased completely - so no one can ever click on the changes he made and see them... they simply don't exist.

    This means someone high up the ranks on Wikipedia is abusing their access to ensure a more level-headed detail cannot be given on the anti-feminist page at wikipedia.

    Re: Wikipedia and definition of antifeminist

    This is one of the reasons some wise folks dont rely on web based documentation for "sensitive" verbiage, it has a habit of changing over time without anyone really noticing.. Orwellian..

    Added after 33 minutes:

    If they want a definition of feminism, they take the version provided by the feminists, not the version provided by simply analysis of the beast.. If they want a definition of antifeminism, youd think they would therefore accept the version provided by antifeminists.. But no, they take the version provided by feminists.. Something tells me feminists seem to control the media in all its forms.

    I had a read of this propaganda:

    Gender is socially constructed through numerous sources, such as the media portraying women playing with dolls and wearing pink; men typically have to be more masculine or their sexuality will be questioned. This is different from the biological sex of a person, which is based on their genitalia.
    Absolute GARBAGE! No wonder feminism is so easily ridiculed when their spiteful ideology is based on dumb presumptions like these.

    Re: Wikipedia and definition of antifeminist

    This is one of the reasons why MRA's should NEVER use the term "gender" when speaking of that which is truly "sex"..

    Sex, is sex, is sex.. Not to be confused with sex.. which it is directly related to.. if you are of the feminist mindset that likes to think "gender" which is some arbitrary social labelling that happens to be applied on folks with different sex organs..

    What makes a man, is his block and tackle.. That is his sex.. That is what defines his masculinity.. his sex organs, not the way his coat buttons..

    What makes a woman, is her stench trench.. That is her sex.. That is what defines her femininity.. Not the way she shaves her head or laces up her Doc Martin boots..
    I started out an optimist, but nothing turned out right..
    Then I became a pessimist, but thats a life of shite..

    Wikipedia is great as a technical resource. Doesn't have such a great reputation on political/social issues for the very reasons above.
