The distinction is very important. It says a lot about motivation.

Not really. A true feminist has the same motivations as the others, i.e. equality for all.

well I’m differentiating because there’s a significant difference between a male and a female.

but feel free to call or use whatever word you like.

Yes, there are differences between males and females.
However, a feminist is a feminist, whether male or female. I am a feminist and I am not a female.

So you would probably have a different motivation than a female feminist. Yours is one of support; hers is via personal experience.

I would say feminism has contributed to inequality though. It has benefited some (many of them already very powerful) at the expense of others (many of them already downtrodden).

Think of the couple on extremely high incomes, and their economic dominance over other members of society. This sort of pairing contributes heavily to the housing affordability crisis. It was very rare before feminism.

There was a man who had 3 girlfriends, but he didn't know which one to marry. He decided to give each one $5000 and see how each of them spent it...​


The first one went out and got a total makeover with the money. She then tells the man, "I spent the money so I could look pretty for you because I love you so much."
The second one went out and bought new golf clubs, a CD player, a television, a stereo and gave them to the man. She said, "I bought these gifts for you with the money because I love you so much."
The third one takes the $5000 and invests it in the stock market, doubles her investment, returns the $5000 to the man and reinvests the rest. She says, "I am investing the rest of the money for our future because I love you so much."
The man thought hard and long about how each of the women had spent the money, he then decided to marry the one with the biggest tits.

Merkins who get this invested in political bullshit are always the most insufferable merkins you can meet.

You get the criminals you deserve. Politics is not a spectator sport and the people who think it is are the most stupidest, docile, illogical propagandized children you can meet. In fact you need to talk to them like an 8 year old and not broach the subject for fear of upsetting the little delicate ones and talk about fantasies like movies, TV shows and sports to keep them happy. Real life is just, well boring or scary.

FFS! We live in a liberal democracy. Both my grandfather's spent 4 years fighting authoritarians to protect our liberal democracy. If you do not like it just go F off and live with your friend Vlad Putin. Enough!
My grandfathers fought them too. Everybody’s did. Have you ever met anyone whose grandmother went to war? I’ve been a few times myself and there aren’t many women signing up. ‘Equality’ is all about demanding jobs in tech and management.
