Open Question: Feminists Jurisprudence: Double standards amongst feminists?
From Yahoo Answers Quote: |
1.The negative portrayal of men on television.The "men are stupid" idea is relentless on TV both in commercials and in the shows themselves. So the ultra-thin women on TV that are helping addto girl's eating disorders can be seen as "no big deal" because the ultra-thin women agreed to appear on TV?Feminism has been stomping on the malee image for so long that it's allowed modern TV to stomp on men without people noticing. Men are treated in ways that would NEVER be acceptable for other groups. Feminist's assault on the male image for 40 years made this possible.2. "Anyone who commits a crime is innocent until proven guilty by a court of law- gender is irrelevant." Wrong!Feminism seeks to relieve women of accountability. Part of feminist theory contains the notion of the "patriarchy" and how this male system is the source of society's ills. Feminists even blame the rise of female violence on thepatriarchal underpinnings of our society. Feminists want to create an illusionn of unassailable sanctity of women. It is like they dont want society to accept that women are people, who have the same capacities as men. Feminists have brainwashed the system into thinking women are not able to commit crimes, blaming patriarchal biases that suggest women are weak, 'nurturers," etc3Child custody double standards.The role of Mother was cruchial to the child's survival, back before Baby Formula was invented. Men are just as capable as women at nurturing children, and it's ''sexist'' to assume they aren't. If one of the parents is unfit, the children should not be put in their care.BUT feminists use the sexist notion that "all men are abusive" to rationalize why children need to be with their mothers more. The child support laws you have now are a direct result of feminist bullying. They dictated how the laws should be to the politicians in trade for the female voting bloc's support. Is it no wonder the laws are unjust, completely ignoring the father's rights to his children and the mistreatment of fathers ingeneral? They fight "shared parenting" every single time it comes up. Feminism has certainly embraced and enhanced these double standards and used them as tools. Modern feminism has found society's willingness to fear men as violent to be very useful and has encouraged the idea, and the idea of women as a classhaving ownership over childrearing is a centerpiece of the modern feminist movement, highly visible not only in issuess of child custody but also domestic violence and abohrtion.Feminism hasn't caused any of these things, to be sure. But that isn't to say that the modern movement hasn't happily embraced them and sought to strengthen them.Are these not all double standards?How would you argue against this..?."The feminists took advantage of the double standards and created great inequality and oppression for men.
