The guilty gone speak. A real feminist wouldnt be on a hip hop message board :mjlol: A real feminist would be in the world fighting for their rights. Why would a feminist engage with cert holding coli 100 thousandaires :sas1: They either alias or a pretend feminist.

:beli:So, are you saying a real feminist is like a monk who swears off all forms of entertainment and only engages in activities that are shared by other feminists? :what:That's some puritanical bullshyt. You sound like one of those Christian or Islamic fundamentalists who think "true believers" only go to church, sleep, eat, and shyt. Come on, breh, humans are more complex than that.

I actually have a love/hate relationship with hip-hop and I love my people. I'm not going to isolate or alienate myself from them all in the name of ideology that only speaks to a piece of who I am.

Because Susan B Anthony, the
leader of the women's suffrage/feminist movement believed in the advancement of white women. So much so that she believed that black men shouldn't be afforded any rights (or equal to a white man) before a white woman. Feminism fails to address the issue of intersectionality, i.e being a black woman. It directly goes against and threatens black empowerment.

This is a poor argument.

1. Susan B. Anthony is dead and has been for a long time.
2. Even if Susan B. Anthony had horrible views, this does not discount the necessity or legitimacy of feminism. At that point you might as well use Elijah Muhammad as an example that black power is a self empowering movement because he okay'd killing Malcolm X.
3. Almost every philosophy or religion or way of thinking has had its history with people who weren't perfect or used it just to position themselves. I'm an atheist, but that doesn't mean that I agree with atheistic regimes such as Mao's.

She was an abolitionist? White people are agents and vessels of white supremacy regardless of their so called beliefs. If you actually believe white women support in the advancement of black women, or women of color you're very mistaken. If that were the case, womanism wouldn't have to exist. The struggle of black women are unique, we're women and black.

That's you then, I guess. Above all, I'm a humanist, and I try to make things better for people, not just those who share my gender or skin color.

Personally, I find your cause limited in method and scope. Life is about more than "I got mines". Naturally, taking away women's rights in general will affect those who are near the bottom, namely hispanic and black women. Supporting rights for all women will help you see your end goal. It's also the same line of thinking white people apply when they try to keep down black people. You are perpetuating the same thing and continuing an endless cycle of ignorance. You have, in effect, learned nothing from your own suffering.

I love black men. I don't know why black feminists have this look that they hate black men? I don't see myself ever being with a man who isn't black, yet I'm labeled as a lesbian and black man hater.
I didn't think you were serious about this. He really tried to school you on the joys of feminism :mindblown:
