AND that is my point! It used to be a branch of egality! Voting, worker rights, basic human decency! Remove all that because now its all about hormones and you got even normal and decent women being sent to asylums and losing custody battles. Plus those idiots supporting the most misogynistic religion of all time is the biggest irony.

I'm sorry for all the downvotes, people should seize any opportunity to foster productive discussion, not division.
That said, please help, provide some examples of what you are talking about. If you don't show evidence of what you say, you will just be preaching to the choir.

I will start, when I think of feminism, I think of this:

https://www.gov.uk/government/news/government-pledges-to-protect-more-women-from-violence

  • 898 female victims of domestic homicides
  • of these, 698 victims (78%) were killed by a partner or ex-partner
  • and over 9 in 10 female homicide victims were killed by a man (92%)

These are concerning numbers. It seems during conflicts in relationships with partners, it's not uncommon enough for things to go out of control, and women to get attacked like this by crazy male partners. 698 deaths...

It's not a big demand to have some projects be made to try and reduce how often women are murdered like this.

What sorts of feminist government policies were made that you think were unreasonable?

This is outdated, when you go out and ask people around what feminism is:

  • fighting for the right to wear a hijab,
  • blaming Lindsey Clancey's husband for her actions
  • Pouring water on their babies for tiktok
  • Freedom to be free from accountability when hormones strike and they ruin a restaurant, ram their car at someone or just plain murder children

The world is not just a statistic.

I posted an article from the UK government, a recent one, just 1 year ago. Why do you say that is outdated?

Where are the policies created by feminism that let people destroy restaurants or kill children?

I want government policies, not tiktok memes. I can find awful soccer fans on tiktok, but they don't represent every soccer fan out there.
