  3. Feminist writer for WaPo calls her sons prospective rapists
McDonaldTrumpX 3 hours ago#1
Feminist writer Jody Allard has a habit of shaming her two sons, one of whom she says is suicidal, for simply disagreeing with her, or worse, for simply being male. Last week, writing in Role Reboot, the mother of two yet again relentlessly shamed her sons for their biology, and then topped herself by explaining that they are, like every other man, “not safe.“ 

Allard first asserts that while her sons are “good boys,“ they aren't “safe boys,“ before bragging about a “semi-viral“ essay she wrote for The Washington Post in which she shames her sons for their role in feminist-constructed “rape culture“ for merely having penises. 
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/parenting/wp/2016/09/14/its-not-enough-to-teach-our-teen-sons-about-consent/

“My essay went semi-viral, and for the first time my sons encountered my words about them on their friends’ phones, their teachers’ computers, and even overheard them discussed by strangers on a crowded metro bus. It was one thing to agree to be written about in relative obscurity, and quite another thing to have my words intrude on their daily lives,“ she explains. 

Unsurprisingly, her teenage boys, whom she's publicly shamed for no other reason than their anatomy, now resent her. One of her sons is even turning to — gasp — conservatism:

One of my sons was hurt by my words, although he’s never told me so. He doesn’t understand why I lumped him and his brother together in my essay. He sees himself as the “good” one, the one who is sensitive and thoughtful, and who listens instead of reacts. He doesn’t understand that even quiet misogyny is misogyny, and that not all sexists sound like Twitter trolls. He is angry at me now, although he won’t admit that either, and his anger led him to conservative websites and YouTube channels; places where he can surround himself with righteous indignation against feminists, and tell himself it’s ungrateful women like me who are the problem.

“Is it my job as his mother to ensure he feels safe emotionally, no matter what violence he spews? Is it my job as his mother to steer and educate, no matter how much that education challenges his view of himself?“
“When I hear his voice become defensive, I back off but question whether I’m doing him any favors by allowing his perception of himself to go unchallenged. When I confront him with his own sexism, I question whether I’m pushing too hard and leaving him without an emotional safe space in his home,“ Allard explains. 

The essayist then has a momentary epiphany, right before her own bigotry concerning men gets the best of her. 
“As a single mother, I sometimes wonder whether the real problem is that my sons have no role models for the type of men I hope they become,“

YES! These boys need male role models in their lives, hopefully males who will also shield them from your incessant shaming for their immutable qualities. 

But Allard quickly kills the idea due to her belief that all men are evil — you know, that thing we're told feminists never believe.

“But when I look around at the men I know, I’m not sure a male partner would fill that hole. Where are these men who are enlightened but not arrogant? Who are feminists without self-congratulation? If my sons need role models, they may have to become their own. ... If the feminist men — the men who proudly declare their progressive politics and their fight for quality — aren’t safe, then what man is? No man, I fear,“ she asserts.

Her reasoning is even more bigoted, believe it or not: Basically, since all white people are born with the inherent sin of being white and are thusly racist beyond their control, even if subliminally, then why can't all men by inherently misogynistic, too?

But if it’s impossible for a white person to grow up without adopting racist ideas, simply because of the environment in which they live, how can I expect men not to subconsciously absorb at least some degree of sexism? White people aren’t safe, and men aren’t safe, no matter how much I’d like to assure myself that these things aren’t true.

And therein lies the evil of collectivism rooted in virtuous victimhood. 
Allard emphasizes that her sons' inherent sinfulness, along with the rest of the male population's, is not her fault, it's society's:

It pains me to say that I don’t feel emotionally safe with [men], and perhaps never have with a man, but it needs to be said because far too often we are afraid to say it. This is not a reflection of something broken or damaged in me; it is a reflection of the systems we build and our boys absorb. Those little boys grow into men who know the value of women, the value that’s been ascribed to us by a broken system, and it seeps out from them in a million tiny, toxic ways.

More disturbingly, Allard has previously spoken about one of her sons being suicidal. In a post as recent as May, the feminist wrote in Role Reboot about her and her suicidal son watching 13 Reasons Why, a show that has been argued to glorify suicide.

Someone get this woman a Mother of the Year award. Somebody call Child Protective Services, for the love of God.

That's 4th wave.

5th wave are far more pro men. Hell 5th wave have shown willingness to listen and work with Mens Rights groups and I mean actually work with not turn up and shout about how the MRA groups should have asked the 4th wavers permission to have the even and had them tell them how to organise it etc etc.

That's not true at all. This is new wave s***, which has nothing to do with what feminism actually stands for. It's just unfortunate that true feminism has fallen by the wayside in the modern era in favor of this feminazi bulls***.

4th wave = 2nd wave ideas being parroted again by people like Anita Sarkeesian but pulling in more of the intersectionality of 3rd wave and working round the idea that gender is a social construct and the only reason society isn't more equal with women in STEM etc is social conditioning to keep women down (AKA the patriarchy)

5th wave = 3rd wave ideas being brought back up to once again debunk the 2nd wave ideas that have been debunked by keep being parroted by 4th wave and more importantly looking at both genders and the inequalities present for each along with looking to determine what is societal and what is actually natural and part of biology and how best to address said biological differences without pretending they don't exist.


Or in more simple terms

4th wave = All toys should be non gendered and never target either gender with gender tropes at all and all the worlds problems are caused by the Cis-White hetero normative capitalist patriarchy.

5th wave = we should encourage people to associate with toys for their gender but not exclude them from being able to play with toys traditionally for other genders. The world has problems but there are problems for everyone and maybe rather than trying to smash some imagine matrix like oppression system we actually fix the problems not claim the problems will magically be fixed by forcing some radical social paradigm shift.

"The Third Way has corrupted feminism from the inside out. Now you're seeing mothers feminize their sons. This feminization of young men is already negatively impacting men. A recent survey discovered that men have significantly less sperm and testosterone than ever before. If this trend continues, America's reproductive capacity will end by 2060. We must put a stop to this nonsense before it's too late."

Even going back all the way to first wave there's plenty of man hate going on. It has gotten more blatant over the years, though.

An example of the man hate in second wave would be how they treated Erin Pizzey for suggesting male domestic violence shelters (after she created the first female one).

The dictionary definition is dead on arrival.

Try going to a feminist group and initiating a conversation with "I'm a feminist because I believe in gender equality, but I think women have way more privileges in today's society than men and the patriarchy is a cruel joke used to perpetuate those privileges." You'll be lucky not to get lynched, and for certain no one else in that conversation will agree that the label "feminist" is appropriately applied to you.

In August 1914, at the start of the First World War, Admiral Charles Fitzgerald founded the Order of the White Feather with support from the prominent author Mrs Humphrey Ward. The organization aimed to shame men into enlisting in the British army by persuading women to present them with a white feather if they were not wearing a uniform.[2][3]

This was joined by some prominent feminists and suffragettes of the time

That doesn't mean that the very principle of the movement was to "hate men". The very idea of true feminism is equality between the two sexes. Although I think egalitarianism is the way to go, personally.

    True feminism, which is supposedly egalitarianism but the fact that they invented a new word for something that already existed shows its not truly the same, but I digress. Anyway, true feminism has basically accomplished everything that needed addressing to the point that anything left (trafficking for instance) falls under human rights.

    People who hate their lives and need something to scapegoat for it often become feminists, but since the real problems (women being able to vote, work, etc and receiving equal treatment when you take into account occupation, seniority, time off, etc) have been addressed the feminazi bulls*** is really all that's left for them.

    You blamed the potential rape on the victim and therefore argued it shouldn't be called rape.

    Or, another way to put it; you advocated for rape.

    Yeah, I did argue that. You're like the people who say that I'm "pro-murder" because I'm pro-choice. We disagree on the definition of murder. If two people get drunk and have sex, I don't think they're raping each other. If somebody is predatory, gets somebody drunk and then has sex with them while they're unconscious, that's rape. Pretty clear distinction there. Still nice deflection, though.

    No it's not. You were probably raised by a good family. Had a mother who loved you. And yet here you advocating rape culture and turning a blind eye to sexism.

    "When I first talked to my sons about enthusiastic consent, they laughed at me. “No one is going to ask a girl before having sex with her,” they said. It’s too awkward and uncomfortable. Besides, they reassured me, you can tell whether a girl is consenting without having to ask her."

    That's totally you!

    Except you're not just inactive with issues of consent, you're active *against* consent.

    I would totally be worried if my children started talking like you.

    There's a reason you chose "black" and "gang banger" though.

    (because you're being a racist).

    Lets remove your racism from the point. Lets say "people" have the potential to be "criminals".

    If your son then started exhibiting the actions of a criminal, would you not caution them against it? Or would it be stupid?

    There is no "fifth wave", there's just a relative handful of "feminists-in-name-only" that have figured out it's career suicide to renounce the label.



    Are you saying they're No true feminist then?

    Because I thought the only requirement to be called a feminist was to believe in the idea of gender equality.

    right, so if you actively promote against that idea, you're not a feminist.

    Good so you agree the women claiming to be feminists who argued against:

    Women being included in the draft
    OR 
    Shelters and more equal funding towards charities helping male victims of domestic abuse 
    OR 
    More equal decisions over child custody
    OR
    Argue against women in a higher paid job having to pay Alimony after a break up when their husband is the one caring for their child.

    They no longer get to call themselves feminists.

    It pains me to say that I don’t feel emotionally safe with [men], and perhaps never have with a man, but it needs to be said because far too often we are afraid to say it. This is not a reflection of something broken or damaged in me; it is a reflection of the systems we build and our boys absorb. Those little boys grow into men who know the value of women, the value that’s been ascribed to us by a broken system, and it seeps out from them in a million tiny, toxic ways.


    Actually, I'm pretty sure it is. Saying that you don't feel emotionally safe with the opposite sex means there is something broke/damaged about you. I don't mean this in a gay/straight kind of way either. I mean this in a "if you don't feel comfortable just being around the opposite sex you have a phobia" kind of way.

    Wait, I'm confused. People hated men because they called them cowards for not signing up for military service, but wanting to force women to sign up is not hating women?

    There's no evidence supporting this is an issue.

    However since radical feminism advocates the destruction of gender roles, all radical feminism would solve this non-problem.

    Not hard to understand ORCA but seems it flew over your head.

    They were fighting to perpetuate the stereotype that it was a mans job to go out and fight to defend the women back home and shaming those who refused even when for some it was conscientious objection at the thought of killing other people. It was perpetuating the stereotype that people are lesser men if they're not stoic and show little emotion.

    You really do only see black and white don't you ORCA.

    You can be a man who doesn't fight because it's not the fighting itself that's the key aspect. The fighting is an expression of the aspect but it can very much be expressed other ways and oddly enough in ways more productive than fighting.

    Same with Women and care giving. It's an expression of an aspect which can be expressed other ways.
