Anyway, I'll give it a rest, this isn't going to go anywhere.
"A lot of feminists". Do you know what that means?

"A lot". It doesn't mean all feminists, most feminists or even a great majority of feminists, it just means a rather large portion. And yeah I forgot to say "radical" again, silly me.

I'm not judging all feminists based on it, I don't know how many f*cking times I have to repeat that to make it goddamn clear enough. I think telling me that just because it dosen't account for every feminist (or rather, "real" feminists, whatever you think that is) somehow makes it a non issue that should never EVER be discussed is the most incredibly closedminded thing you can say.

Not ALL muslims are radical extremists, so they must be irrelevant and never talked about, not ALL christians are psychotic bigots so no let's never talk about Fred Phelps, that might offend some of the "good" christians.

I really hate this way of thinking, very much.

Perhaps saying feminism is obsolete was taking it way too far, I apologise for not making it clear enough what I actually meant. Because at least for the US I think feminism has become a parody of itself, that's not to say we have TOTAL equality now, but I don't think there's any civil rights issues left in America that feminist activists really have any control over. Now they're just pushing a lot of ideals that like I've said many times, are f*cking retarded. Again, "a lot", "radical", how many times do I have to use these words? Is ADHD that big of a problem nowadays?

I'm sorry for assuming everyone here knew how to read, clearly I was wrong.
