Camille Paglia on her controversial feminism

[@AneTix101]

Praglia couldn't be more clear on her points and yet the interviewer is about as confused as someone can be. Paglia "I want women to be free to make their own decisions but to be strong enough to take responsibility for those decisions."....Interviewer "what?"

Yep, I too was amazed at how someone could be confused by what CP said. I agree, it is the filter of PC, feminist interpretation (by the interviewer) and ALSO an intellectual disability to comprehend that two paradoxical concepts can both be present and true at the same time. Ideology demands "If THIS is true therefore THAT must be untrue". It's infantile thinking.

[@bnic9471]

Shouldn't an interviewer sometimes ask common, naïve questions so they can be addressed for an audience who might be totally naïve? It's not really the job of an interviewer to agree with the interviewee or to only ask "correct" questions.

Joseph... I literally just said they exact sentence out loud as I watched that section of the interview.

[@goingtogetugly9657]

Mustbe, I think you've completely misunderstood the criticism. Camille's point was straightforward to anyone not trained to screen everything through a feminist coloured lens. Camille was talking about women taking full responsibility for themselves.... just as men are expected to!.... and also to stop blaming men anytime something in their lives doesn't go the way they would have preferred. The fact that Wendy Mesley couldn't wrap her mind around the notion that women could be expected to do these two things simultaneously is just bizarre. And telling! But then again... Wendy next interpreted Camille to be advocating that women 'go back' to the days where men and women occupied separate realms.

Paglia: Upper middle class career women want to redefine men according to what operates smoothly in their own affluent career system. Reporter: So women are too focused on careers? How did she make that jump? She's saying that these upper class women are trying to MANIPULATE the system to redefine men and manhood in a way that makes them less competitive so that those women can place themselves on top. The women are trying to define BOTH what it is to be a woman AND what it means to be a man. With that kind of control, they can give themselves both protections AND advantages while also working to undermine and disadvantage men. "Too focused on careers" - No, perhaps not focused enough on their CAREERS. Too focused on manipulation and knocking the men down to get higher in the ranks rather than work and merit.

I’m a fan of Paglia. As the mother of four young men, I loath the male bashing and blaming of men for things that are not their fault. It’s not man’s fault that when we got what we asked for, namely equality, some women want to be cared for. I also have grave concerns where women set themselves as a hyper sexual creature. That’s good but there are very real risks in this behavior and girls need to be educated about it.

[@ryanv3015]

@Katallylos if you care so much about long lasting relationships, why do you only attack women who are promiscuous? Throughout history you have examples of promiscuous men. Giving women an education is obviously not a bad thing, people who make such ridiculous arguments are simply guys who cannot stand the fact that both genders have freedom of choice. Women have proven capable of doing top jobs, just like men have proven capable of child bearing or domestic housework. Give people freedom of choice and stop being backward.

Yes, drag-queens who choose to dress like Cher are somewhat more likely to be treated like an "outsider" than drag-maids who dress like their mum. When 'Cher' struts into the men's room, there's tension in the air, but when 'mum' pops into the ladies', nobody even notices.

[@maocharlisme]

I believe this too. As a highly artistic and theatrical person I hate this phenomenon and other overly identity-sensitive, identity-fragile, hyper-left phenomena akin to it because the groupthink that births from this has infiltrated the performance arts (specifically theatre, which is my background) first and foremost and, together with other socialist-leftist doctrine, dictates the general agreed upon social perspective and opinions in that world and of the world within that world a priori. In general the world of contemporary art has become terribly politicized by snobby leftists who see it as the normal and righteous state of affairs for every artist to be of their general political affiliations and social beliefs... and then it shamelessly dares to be presumptuously moralizing in its indoctrinating leftist belief-systems to add insult to injury!

I've only recently discovered Camille Paglia and yet just watched enough of her videos to feel like she's speaking my language. Perhaps I had to grow up emotionally in order to grasp what she's putting down, because my 20-something self might have struggled to accept some of her controversial feminism. I'm reminded of one so-called feminist activist in Seattle, who believed that women shouldn't have to learn martial arts and self defense in order for men to stop being sexual predators. It seems that Camille might echo my own sentiment about how women still need to develop their toughest selves in order to adapt to a world which isn't going to become non-hostile to us overnight. I also can't help but now find Madonna to be a pretty damned sad example of what a feminist icon could have been. If she rose to stardom being such a sexually and spiritually empowered woman, she ended up as an ageist parody of feminine youth. Madonna might have held my respect if she hadn't clearly surrendered her natural aging beauty for some delusional fairy tale of 60-year-old women looking forever like they're in their 20s.

Many of these youngsters profess to reflect or tolerate or empathise, yet in reality they tolerate and empathise only those within their tribe - something which defeats the purpose of those virtues.

The TA confessed that he had assaulted her. When the consequences for this man we're minimal, my daughter posted the incident on Facebook. After hearing from multiple other female students who had had the same experience with this man, my daughter invited them to go with her to the orange county police department.

It's the way the internet used to be, before governments and corporations colluded to dumb it down. People are working on "Web 3.0" projects, which will replace Twitter and KZbin and whatnot, with decentralized systems that cannot be shut down. The best of these will also be encrypted and anonymous so governments and their corporate buddies cannot retaliate against people for producing or hosting content they disagree with. What we're learning in the internet age is that it doesn't matter what the law is. If something is technically possible, your governments ARE using it against you already. That will always be there, but "Web 3.0" is a way to at least preserve speech, our most fundamental right.

This interviewer is insufferable.

[@jerbear1601]

Paglia is a very interesting lady for sure. I think that people like her, and the thoughts that she brings to the table will serve to advance the gender issues in society. I was always impressed with her thoughts on women empowering themselves without bashing men about it. If you are a woman with respect and confidence in yourself and careful about what situations you put yourself in, you can avoid a lot of problems. As a man I do the same kind of thing when I go somewhere, I judge the situation and if I find it to be unsafe for myself or others with me I leave and take responsibility for myself. Example: Out for drinks with friends at a pub and it looks like a drunken brawl is brewing a table or two over, move towards paying your bill and leaving and not hanging around for the bedlam to start and putting yourself there.

[@peteschaub7561]

You can literally watch interviewer's hamster wheel spinning

[@melikey3758]

I'm a feminist like Camille is a feminist. Always have been, even before I knew about her.

[@wraye81]

Why is it so hard for women to say No. "Do you want to go upstairs with me" just say no if you don't want to. Parents need to teach their kids to say No. The sexual assault victims say they are afraid to say no I think a lot if the times their parents never taught them the importance of no. I always said NO and if the person did not like it, too bad, not my problem.

[@breezyveezy1]

She has great points and that interviewer is CLUELESS

[@wave8359]

----well,,,,maybe not quite so clueless-----maybe ,also, an obedient trainee of the Soros School of Leftist-Fascism, too..........They follow the fascist agenda, using dis-ingenuousness to push their lies.

[@Random_Wierdo.]

She has great points, but for anyone who hasn’t seen her before can’t really understand what she is defending, and she asks her to elaborate.

[@brendongill4534]

So good to hear sensible feminist option, second wave feminism has lost the path

[@Blazer9970]

She supports pedophilia. She thinks the age of consent should be lowered to 14. Shes sick and i dont know why u people support her

[@Mercurio_volante]

"I'm saying that there should be protection for all dissident behavior and speech. Dissidence of every kind, that's where the law should go". Well said!

[@matthewgallagher6982]

Ah the old “so you’re saying…..” school of journalism

[@mavericktheace]

"But now I'm confused...how is telling women to not blame men the same as telling women to be strong?" ffffuuuuuuu c'mon, at least try!

[@knight5545]

"Upper middle class career women want to define men in a way it operates smoothly in their own quite affluent career system" It's absolutely true

[@paulcavigliano6388]

This woman is one of the most intelligent democraps I have ever seen.

[@RochesFan]

She voted for the Green Party in the last two elections...

[@fellowcitizen]

@@RochesFan She is a registered Democrat, though.

[@ivanronin8209]

She is telling the truth . I see women in my place of work constantly Bashing men and constantly complaining but always avoiding hard work outside of the office . Women take more sick leave and work shorter hours ......So where is the equality ?

[@Ozma337]

Camille is voice of reason.

[@Eristtx]

Camille Paglia - I ran into her an hour ago. I don't dare say I agree with her or anything - I've only superficially read her views so far. But she exudes pure, immediate energy and ... I think I've gone mad, but something that could be described as "genuine goodness". For many people... and this may be my bias, but especially on the far left, I see a lot of "nice words" but underneath it all is a certain hidden resentment, insincerity and a hidden desire to gain something at the expense of another group. I don't see any of that in Camille... I just see honesty. It's refreshing in a way.

[@IzaakCha7]

Justin Trudeau should debate her, maybe she can knock some sense into him

[@SeaNBlack]

Woman actually making sense = "Controversial feminism"

[@lukejanis2016]

The interviewer can't have an abstract thought to save her life.

[@davexb6595]

She's always had men to do that for her.

[@yolandaponkers1581]

You can’t want a woman to cover up and shame her for being confident with her own body and say you’re a feminist. It just doesn’t work that way.

[@detinus]

That's not what she is doing.

[@stephj9378]

Where has this woman been all my life! So refreshing to see a feminist with heart and soul and balance.

[@curiositypiqued6573]

The interviewers can't win.... She was perfectly kind and professional.. Tbh it's this woman being interviewed and her logic and "ethics" that frightened me

[@davexb6595]

You are frightened of egalitarianism, logic and personal responsibility? What really scared you the most? Was it the bit about expecting women to be adults with agency? Or was it the frightening prospect of women no longer being able to blame men for all their own poor decisions?

[@hectarsavoie8166]

That interviewer had no idea what she was in for. Camille saw the direction the interviewer was going and did not budge an inch.

[@robroberts1473]

I can understand why this reporter would be confused, she is talking to a strong and very intelligent wonan. 😊

[@user-ju7ze9to4k]

She's my kind of transgender.

[@user-ju7ze9to4k]

Ha ha, no, but I'm the type of guy who likes all kinds of people, unless they try to tell me what to do or think or take away my rights. Within reason.

[@BenjaminEsposti]

Rs 225, I'm the same kind of person. I only appreciate those who can appreciate me. That reciprocity is what forms tight bonds between people, in my opinion.

[@gramor]

She's authentic.

[@dudeonyoutube]

She's not transgender.

[@skipstah70]

She's saying she's transgender now.

[@chuckamuck3786]

This woman should be declared a National Treasure!

[@MsZeldasaga]

They should have chose a more intellectual interviewer cuz everything is going over this lady's head.

[@mensrea1251]

MsZeldasaga Mainstream media have so few, perhaps none.

[@davexb6595]

I seems anything above ground is over this woman's head.

[@angelabrooke5059]

She makes good points but underestimates sexual assault cases. I have been sexually assaulted in a car during the day by an old man, sexually assaulted on a crowded bus and by a relative I was told by my parents to go and look at his new car with him. Should women and girls never be alone anywhere near men even in broad daylight?

[@ghua]

Paglia is 100% right. reporter seems very confused.

[@wisteria3032]

everyone talking about how the interviewer didn't understand anything Camille was talking about... what exactly should she have done? Say I completely agree after every sentence? and then what? It's called an interview not a conference: her role is precisely to get Camille to talk about any controversial points and guide her through an explanation for a possibly hostile public. She never attacked her (see Cathy Newman) never misinterpreted her words (see Cathy Newman) never interrupted (see... oh well you got it)

[@riffrockr2528]

Camille Paglia's books, ok, would be twice as long, ok, if she wrote, ok, like she talks, ok

[@jeansroses7249]

yeah, that part bugs me to listen to

[@rebeccafreeman6221]

Mr Garisson

[@petehill7280]

She says OK so often that she sounds like a female version of Ben Shapiro.

[@BubbleOnPlumb]

I think the real problem is that women have moved ahead very quickly with the establishment of their own sexual identity and equanimity of standing in sexual relationships but have failed to simultaneously develop their ability/willingness to take responsibility for their own actions in that regard. Not to sound like a comic book here but - With great power comes great responsibility! Women have eagerly taken up all the the reins of power but they continue to fail to act responsibly in the exercise of that power. When push comes to shove, many women will continue to fall back on finger pointing to escape having to take responsibility for their actions when those actions lead to undesirable outcomes. They know full well that when they point the finger at a man, society will rush in to destroy that man on their behalf. This is because society continues to considers women to be "powerless" (even though they are not) and affords them a protected status in that regard. As long a society continues to ignore the role of women in bringing about an undesirable outcome, we will have turmoil between the sexes.

[@adg4598]

Your statement implies women are children ..... cause the only class of people I can think of which are free without the burden of responsibility are children. Seems spot on. Their parents would be the big daddy governments and NGO/women's organizations I suppose? I hope that truly is not the case in the west. Else you have a big problem on your hands, dealing with a whole bunch of grown up "kids" who do not have a sense of responsibility and only the privileged access to their rights. If that is the case, what has your society done to itself??? Dreadful .....

[@Freenure]

[@lukaduka1001]

Finally an intelligent individual saying out loud what I have been thinking for the last 20 years. Women need to step up and take responsibility for their own actions and decisions and stop playing the victim.

[@chel3SEY]

What a breath of fresh air Camille Paglia is. She's one-of-a-kind. She's worth more than 10,000 feminists... and they know it.

[@fellowcitizen]

There needs to be some kind of qualification system for journalism. I'm unfamiliar with this reporter's work, so perhaps it just wasn't her area, but I've seen too many reporters that attempt to obscure rather than elucidate their subject.

[@wave8359]

Well....they often do it intentionally---they are not so innocent. What such "interviewers" do is what is known as "weaponizing" !

[@-carlos-danger1891]

The smartest point she made was when she said that she wanted "Protection for ALL dissident behavior and speech." That is the most brilliant and concise way I have heard the underlying principle of free speech and liberalism phrased.

[@bojensen1761]

Camille-Large Intellect Anchor- Extremely small intellect

[@AgeofMachines]

2:15-2:30 The most clarifying definition of the problem at hand. Given emotional context, it's easy to see why men react the way they do to feminism.

[@mary-annlabrie6778]

Excellent video! Camille is spot on. Women need to start and take control of their lives and stop "outward" blaming.
