VICE’s Debate Panel on Feminism Was WILD

[@kmcpherson]

The funniest part is that VICE turned comments off on the original video because everyone was supporting Pearl and Sydney. Cowardly move.

[@brandonsnider5871]

I was thinking when watching the original that Amala would have been a better pick than Pearl. Pearl says things that are true, but in general I feel like Pearl just regurgitate talking points.

[@photocrazy2012]

Yes, that is a cowardly move, they are not seeking truth

[@xMorganbrittnyx]

@@brandonsnider5871 she's also condescending in general with people will automatically become defensive to and shut down and won't listen to you no matter what. She's not a good debater at all...Like for instance, when that woman said "well you're able-bodied, I'm in a wheelchair" she just says "I understand that but we're speaking about just women vs men " and they started going off in circles...she couldn't explain it in a way to get them to directly answer it...But Amala said it perfectly when she said "my response would be what barriers do you have that a disabled man doesnt?" There's really no way to circle around that response lol. It was a PERFECT point and response and I wish someone would have thought of that.

Aside from some people still not respecting women ( which is like racism or “world peace” in that it is never going to be 100% gone) I think women have succeeded in gaining equality, which feminists should be celebrating. Now women in other countries and cultures, we can say face many barriers.

[@jan-willembavinck3650]

it's more common that women have lower barriers....

[@clairehann2681]

I'll tell you why they can't answer. Because the real answer is that genetically male people tend to not always take genetically female people 100% seriously. Note, I said tend. But they can't admit that because it negates their intersectional feminist beliefs about gender.

[@Kay3Kay3]

Most of them were just stating their own struggles and not answering the question. It was so intolerable to watch.

[@noahjessup9342]

What I also find funny is when Pearl was talking to Mindie (the disabled woman) about the lack of barriers, she was talking to her as if she didn't have a disability at all. In Pearl's eyes Mindie was just a woman, not a disabled woman. Which correct me if I'm wrong don't people just want to be seen as people now instead of throwing labels on things. It wasn't until Mindie then re-introduced her disability into the conversation that it became part of it. For a group of people who don't want to be identified solely on one characteristic, they seem to bring it up more than everyone else.

[@noahjessup9342]

@@avivastudios2311 And then subsequently derail the conversation from the point Pearl was trying to make. I get that topics can mean varied things to different people, but when talking about such a broad concept, people need to focus on the unifying characteristic that brought them there to speak. Which is that (most) of them are women. But it seems we as a culture have turned to a very individualistic view and grouping people together based on common characteristics is seen as taboo unless that group happens to be white people.

I thought the logical question line was why not mens sports? are you being exclusionary saying that trans can but not non binary? Then why are men excluded from womens sports or why don't we make all sports gender neutral? Shouldn't a gender fluid person ONLY play against the gender they're presently identifying as? What about sexual harrassment, if they identify or are presently identifying as male, or as attracted to the victims gender, shouldn't trans be treated as and as such given the full recourse of the law, judgement and scrutiny as the standards that have been layed out for men? As a trans person are you able to biologically have children? No, then why the fuck are talking about pro choice? Do you think that you're against the idea of "pretty privilege" which exists subconsciously even between heterosexual same sex groups as an inherent social hierarchy (we're more likely to listen to people with attractive traits, probably part of why Amala has 818K subs) because no guy wants you, you'll never bear their children and no girl does either as your basically a simp who can't change a car tyre or make a fire?

No more living in confusion, no more hoping. If you want to know for sure you're going to heaven when you die, just turn from your guilty conscience. Follow God to the best of your knowledge. So if anything makes your spirit uncomfortable stay away from it. But people shouldn't overthink their relationship with God, just focus on today. Not all Christians are on the same level but just don't plan or linger in what you learned is sin. The Holy Bible states that anyone can turn to Jesus, even people who sold their soul to the devil, like witches, psychics, sorcerers, satanists, people who participate in witchcraft. But your life here on this earth is the only time you have to make up your mind. At this point, you have to believe Jesus was more than a messenger or a good person. He was sent by God to be Savior of the world and to die for our sins. He was crucified, buried, resurrected three days later, he walked the earth for forty days then ascended into heaven. There were eyewitnesses who recorded events that took place in his life and resurrection. Information concerning Jesus' life and crucifixion was passed down through written history and oral tradition. Ask Jesus to forgive you for every sin you have committed. It doesn't matter how you do it, but just tell him that you repent. You turn from your old wicked ways and turn to him. Tell God that you accept his son Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior... For now on, don't plan or linger in what you learned is against the Bible. Use what you learned so far, and apply it to your life. Once you reach a certain age, your conscience tells you what's right and what's wrong. If you can't picture Jesus giving in/ or behaving a certain way, do not give in. Not every sin will be specifically listed in scripture but you will know it's sin when you feel the guilt. To give you a good understanding of what sin is, it's lying, profanity, extortion, threatening, anger, drinking, masturbation, dressing immodestly, seduction, homosexuality, sex outside of marriage, dressing immodestly, unfaithful in relationships or marriage, trying to intentionally get high, child abuse/neglect, trying to publicly humiliate someone or put their sin on a stage, fighting, bullying, biased, prejudice, revenge, retaliation, intimidation, harassment, antagonizing, assault, violence, murder, pedophilia, racism, stealing, pornography, sorcery, abortion, encouragement/support for sin, hypocritical judgment and judging by appearance. You can also read Leviticus 20:1-17 and 1 Corinthians 6:9-10. God requires us to make righteous judgments such as; encouraging people to live righteously according to his commandments and standing up for what is morally right with empathy. And always keep in mind that any spiritual meditation is very dangerous if you're not focused on the spirit of Jesus. Sin can no longer be your intentions. The sin is the act, so when you have evil thoughts running through your mind. Cast it out, meditate on uprightness. But when you do end up sinning at some point, ask Jesus to forgive you. Jesus knows you can be in tough situations that involve sin but you have to come up with a plan. Don't get comfortable in sin and do your best to get out of it. You have to hate sin, continue to fight out of it. Jesus knows if you're really trying, he knows your intentions. He knows if you really hate sin. Forgive others just as Jesus has forgiven you. Unforgiveness will make you vengeful and God doesn't want vengeance in your heart. God doesn't want you riled up over people you have no control over. Don't let people have control over your mind. Forgiveness does not mean you have to put up with people, of course you're going to have to keep your distance because you know what they're about. God just wants you to let go of this grudge, this retaliation, so you can have peace. When you forgive, you're taking a big weight off your shoulders. Forgive and move on with your life. God just wants you to have control over your mind and move on with your life because your anger and emotions can keep you from thinking clearly or making wise decisions. Do your best to stay away from people who you know are intentionally sinning, you can help them but do not come into agreement or follow what they're doing. Do not deny Jesus, don't be ashamed. You might not have all the knowledge but at this point you have to be willing to stand up for him, don't back down. Continue to humble yourself to learn more about God and keep striving to do better, even through the trials and tribulations. Baptism in water is very important, it is an outward declaration of the decision that we have made for Christ. It identifies us with Christ's death, burial and resurrection. But, person can go in the water a dry devil and come out a wet devil. If a person truly receives Jesus in his heart and drops dead before the baptismal service, without a doubt, heaven will be his eternal home. The thief on the cross can attest to that. The only unforgivable sin is never receiving Jesus as savior and Lord. When the bible speaks of blaspheming against the holy spirit, it is in reference to the prideful pharisees who were attributing the works of Jesus to the devil and trying to entrap the lord. It is widely believed and I take this stand also that Jesus knowing the condition of the hearts of those particular men, was referencing them and not all men. These verses of scripture must be kept in proper context. Do not isolate the scriptures, but read the scriptures before and after, know the setting of the verses and know who the author is talking to. Before a man comes to Christ, he is capable of doing anything. To suggest that a person can commit a sin that God is not willing to forgive him for undermines the entire gospel message. Jesus came to save a lost and dying world. God has so much love and compassion for you but he can't accept you until you accept him. So when God judges you, he is not choosing whether you go to heaven or hell because you already made it to heaven based on your conscience decision to follow him. God will judge you based on your works you did on this earth to determine what rewards you will get in heaven. God knows you can do this, your emotions will have you thinking that it's harder than what it really is. He will forgive anyone for anything but they have to truly regret it and want to be forgiven. I know it might feel like God is overreacting but if you just take a look back at all the evil things you did in your life you'll realize how wonderful God is to make a way for you..

To give you a good understanding of what sin is, it's lying, profanity, extortion, threatening, anger, drinking, masturbation, dressing immodestly, seduction, homosexuality, sex outside of marriage, dressing immodestly, unfaithful in relationships or marriage, trying to intentionally get high, child abuse/neglect, trying to publicly humiliate someone or put their sin on a stage, fighting, bullying, biased, prejudice, revenge, retaliation, intimidation, harassment, antagonizing, assault, violence, murder, pedophilia, racism, stealing, pornography, sorcery, abortion, encouragement/support for sin, hypocritical judgment and judging by appearance. You can also read Leviticus 20:1-17 and 1 Corinthians 6:9-10. God requires us to make righteous judgments such as; encouraging people to live righteously according to his commandments and standing up for what is morally right with empathy. And always keep in mind that any spiritual meditation is very dangerous if you're not focused on the spirit of Jesus. Sin can no longer be your intentions. The sin is the act, so when you have evil thoughts running through your mind. Cast it out, meditate on uprightness. But when you do end up sinning at some point, ask Jesus to forgive you. Jesus knows you can be in tough situations that involve sin but you have to come up with a plan. Don't get comfortable in sin and do your best to get out of it. You have to hate sin, continue to fight out of it. Jesus knows if you're really trying, he knows your intentions. He knows if you really hate sin. Forgive others just as Jesus has forgiven you. Unforgiveness will make you vengeful and God doesn't want vengeance in your heart. God doesn't want you riled up over people you have no control over. Don't let people have control over your mind. Forgiveness does not mean you have to put up with people, of course you're going to have to keep your distance because you know what they're about. God just wants you to let go of this grudge, this retaliation, so you can have peace. When you forgive, you're taking a big weight off your shoulders. Forgive and move on with your life. God just wants you to have control over your mind and move on with your life because your anger and emotions can keep you from thinking clearly or making wise decisions. Do your best to stay away from people who you know are intentionally sinning, you can help them but do not come into agreement or follow what they're doing. Do not deny Jesus, don't be ashamed. You might not have all the knowledge but at this point you have to be willing to stand up for him, don't back down. Continue to humble yourself to learn more about God and keep striving to do better, even through the trials and tribulations. Baptism in water is very important, it is an outward declaration of the decision that we have made for Christ. It identifies us with Christ's death, burial and resurrection. But, person can go in the water a dry devil and come out a wet devil. If a person truly receives Jesus in his heart and drops dead before the baptismal service, without a doubt, heaven will be his eternal home. The thief on the cross can attest to that. The only unforgivable sin is never receiving Jesus as savior and Lord. When the bible speaks of blaspheming against the holy spirit, it is in reference to the prideful pharisees who were attributing the works of Jesus to the devil and trying to entrap the lord. It is widely believed and I take this stand also that Jesus knowing the condition of the hearts of those particular men, was referencing them and not all men. These verses of scripture must be kept in proper context. Do not isolate the scriptures, but read the scriptures before and after, know the setting of the verses and know who the author is talking to. Before a man comes to Christ, he is capable of doing anything. To suggest that a person can commit a sin that God is not willing to forgive him for undermines the entire gospel message. Jesus came to save a lost and dying world. God has so much love and compassion for you but he can't accept you until you accept him. So when God judges you, he is not choosing whether you go to heaven or hell because you already made it to heaven based on your conscience decision to follow him. God will judge you based on your works you did on this earth to determine what rewards you will get in heaven. God knows you can do this, your emotions will have you thinking that it's harder than what it really is. He will forgive anyone for anything but they have to truly regret it and want to be forgiven. I know it might feel like God is overreacting but if you just take a look back at all the evil things you did in your life you'll realize how wonderful God is to make a way for you..

I have a friend who has been a hiring manager for a company for 10 years and she has mentioned how nearly every man they hire comes back to negotiate a higher salary whereas woman generally don’t. Both she and my husband were encouraging me to negotiate a higher pay rate when I was in a hiring process a couple years ago and I absolutely didn’t want to because of how awkward I felt. I went ahead and did it anyway and sure enough, my higher rate was accepted. I feel most women think the way I do and just want to avoid any general awkwardness so they go ahead and accept the first offer. So no, this big pay gap conspiracy isn’t a discrimination issue… it’s simply an issue of men generally feeling more comfortable asking for what they want as opposed to women. I hope it changes and more and more women start to do the same.

Schooling may be the issue here because many of the colleges here in America push liberal agendas and many times indoctrinate these young people into believing the liberal ideologies.

I know when 911 happened people became very hateful towards people from the Middle East. I lived in NY at the time and the people I met from the Middle East were lovely people. So that is how I viewed them instead of listening to the hateful narrative the media and society at the time was pushing.

We wanted to vote, our own sports division, equal pay, to be able to work in any profession, to go to any college and to decide if we want to marry or have children what right is it that they think we don't have that men do. Women actually have more rights in divorce and child custody even if they are horrible mothers. If they think women's rights are so bad here in the US, they should go to another country like Iran. I got so tired of the victim mentality of these people. The abortion debate as a woman that had to have one 19 years ago is a very touchy subject for me. I don't think that the subject of abortion would have gotten so out of hand if women weren't using it as birth control. I do agree there are circumstances that warrant a legal abortion but not just because someone didn't use protection. I had to have an abortion because of medical issues that would have complicated my life and the pregnancy so I didn't have a choice.

I agree with you on all accounts. I have one thing to add though. Women aren’t allowed to go topless at pools and on the beach.

And yes, we use them in sex, but we use hands too, and no one has to run around wearing gloves all the time. I think it should be the same rules for all.

My mother always told me I was beautiful, not "beautiful black girl", just beautiful. Not one single guy talked to me from elementary to h.s, but I never thought it was because I was black. I never felt ugly or lesser than because of my skin. Why, because the black girls that I was friends with were getting dates! Colorism was not in my household. And we are not at ALL light skinned. Plus, I don't understand how we're not seen as beautiful when there's a black woman on the arm of damn near every race of man lol?!? I don't accept beauty standards, especially today.

You know, this is interesting. Most recent waves of feminism were always going around stating that it's a movement/ideology that "fights for the rights of everyone". Premising that I agree with Pearl and Sidney, i want to specify one thing: if some movement is about everyone, you cannot take away an entire half of the equation in debates because you need their perspective to achieve a fair result. And that's why I think (personal opinion here) feminism should pretty much include everyone, the only one thing done right in this completely useless and time-wasting panel to me is that there were at least 2 biological men (and it's not even enough for their purpose). If feminist debates cannot have any man participating, then feminism is absolutely not fighting for everyone (which I think it is exactly the case nowadays, but then be honest and say it clearly XD).

I bristled a bit when Pearl said women use abortion because they want to sleep around with no consequences.

Or when, while going crazy in my 20's, I thought sex was power as a woman and I had a couple scares, but didn't consider abortion an option. .... All that ran through my head as defense against Pearl's broad stroke of the topic. But then the women cheered. They backed up Pearl's statement better than any statistics she could have presented.

[@empressnisha7369]

I fully agreed with Pearl in this case because the statistics don’t lie. The majority of abortions are not for medical emergencies or for reconciling with sexual abuse; they are for those who have undesired pregnancies because of their own consequences. I have seen many women in my life who end up pregnant and the first thing they say is “let me get my 1400 or X amount of money and drive to the abortion clinic to get rid of the baby.” I will never understand the avoidance of responsibility when the same ones complain about men not taking care of their kids. I would rather argue that there should be more testing of birth control options that are not harmful to women’s bodies.

Trans women still have higher levels of testosterone, and need I remind you men's bodies have more muscular mass and a bigger bone structure, there for trans women are stronger and bigger than biological women. They still have an unfair advantage. You can argue all you want but it is sexist and unfair to allow biological men to compete against women. Now, I am not saying have trans women compete against men, because even though they still have higher testosterone, it's not as much as a man after a few years on hormones.

@@miriamlana833 Look, it's very simple. Men and women are different, right down to every cell in their body.

More muscle mass, stronger bones, faster twitch muscles, more twitch muscle fibres, taller, heavier, generally more durable. This is what differentiates men from women in physical stature. That's simple biology. No matter how many drugs you take, when someone digs up your skeleton in 100 years they will know immediately if you were a man or a woman. If you're in denial of these biological realities then there's no helping you because the premise of any argument you make is not grounded in reality. If you're this wrong, fundamentally, about the world we live in then you're doomed to be ignorant. Trans men, aka women, winning against biological men in sports is relatively rare. I don't have a problem with it because the trans men are choosing to fight uphill from the start. If they win, its because they are an incredible physical specimen not because their biological makeup gives them a massive physical advantage. When men go into women's sports it's an unfair contest skewed towards the men entirely. It's insane.

Yet so much time and effort is being expended to try and get people interested in things they legitimately do not want to do or have any interest in. He did have 2 female coworkers out of probably 200 workers overall. They couldn't do half the work either because they weren't strong enough, and honestly the only thing the women were better at was the few instances when smaller hands made things easier, but it's not as if the men couldn't still get it done... yet the women are so sought after for statistics on a report despite actually being less capable.

Put Pearl in a situation where she's actually challenged and she becomes just like these women she's 'destroying'.

I wish more people would take the time to analyse Pearl rather than just assuming if she's anti feminism then it automatically follows that she must know what she's doing.

From all I've seen of Pearl and her show, she's incredibly juvenile and her takes are unintelligent, nonsensical rubbish and quite frankly, the only thing that saved her here was that it's not hard to look good against other irrational people when you have a list of other people's talking points to parrot on issues that you don't actually understand yourself - I'd like to see her debate an intelligent feminist like Louise Perry or Kellie Jay Keen - let's see how good she looks then!

My first real job as a teenager was in welding (I took welding in HS for 2 yrs). I worked construction building, remodeling, and repairing homes, later opening our own construction company. After that I went into Firefighting and ended with running my husbands trucking company. Not once did I ever have to prove myself any more than a man had to. I was 18 when I applied to a welding company that had 3 shops. The first shop didn’t hire me but the Forman of another shop swooped in while I was packing up my stuff and immediately hired me for his shop. His exact words were “I’d rather hire a woman, y’all make better welders. You’re more detail oriented.” That seems like a benefit of being a woman. In construction and welding the men constantly attempted to do the heavy lifting and “hard stuff” for me. I was not expected to do those things. Another benefit here. In firefighting the women had MUCH lower physical agility standards. This also appears to be a benefit. Luckily it didn't take long for the men to realize I could do the job the same as them. In trucking my husband stopped being the communication point for our drivers, brokers, shippers, receivers, and even repair shops. I was able to negotiate better rates with less hassle. It was easier and less painful for me to handle getting an earlier appt at shippers and receivers. Drivers overall responded better to me. For years I watched my husband handle those things. He was always polite and always cooperative, always more even tempered than I ever was. It wasn't until my female voice or face was there that things went smoother.

The cackling one went into full projecting mode. She accused Sydney of living in a bubble and being mad that poc's are able to "have a voice". The thing is she's the one that lives in a bubble and only listens to people who believe the same things as her, wich is shown by her emotional reaction upon hearing different opinions, she's the one that wants others, specifically people who don't think the same, to be silenced and is the one who's mad that people who think differently are still allowed to speak their minds. And let's keep in mind that to her "being listened to" means being "believed and validated". She isn't for equal rights to speech, she's for censoring people who think differently than how she's been conditioned to "think". People like her, pro authoritarian mrxists, don't believe in Objective Morals and Individual Rights, they believe in having power over others and only viewing that as wrong when they're not the ones in power. The Fourth Age explains this mentality and it's origins on one of his last videos.

Something that is often missing from the feminist conversations is the experience of mothers. I am from Canada where we have one year of parental leave paid by the government but I know in other countries there’s no parental leave or leaves that are very short periods of time. Mothers need to be better supported in taking care of their children especially single mothers, or parents who don’t have family nearby to help them. Also breast-feeding education in the west is abysmal, not only in terms of learning how to breast-feed, but also support around challenges that occur as breast-feeding continues over months, or years, and ways to wean your baby off of breast-feeding. Very little support exists for that and often mothers end up feeding their babies in ways that they wouldn’t have chosen had they had the correct support. Also, the pay gap issue comes into play here as women lose income and socioeconomic status when they become mothers. There is pressure to keep up a thriving career while raising children, and while some mothers may choose this route others may be forced, or want, to prioritize one over the other. There should be supports in place for them to be able to do that. I have no idea what the solution would be to this problem. There are probably several different solutions needed, only that it seems to be something that’s absent from feminist discussions in general

[@melissabee5845]

Pearl would tell you it's your fault for not marrying a rich man, and that if you really loved your children you wouldn't be working, or you wouldn't have had a divorce, or that you shouldn't have been a run through ho (which all single mothers are). I wish they had brought up some of those things, because that would have forced Pearl to expose herself and her beliefs that women shouldn't be outside the home anyway. I hate that people keep applauding this woman because it seems as if the assumption is that if it's anti feminist then it's automatically good. As a conservative woman, and not a feminist myself, Pearl is truly awful.

[@iamtenderhearted5192]

I am an old-school feminist❤️, I believe we all need each other we need women we need men, the answer is love and never hatred. I loved when you said “ we get lost in the sauce” I completely agree😢, it breaks my heart that women are pitting themselves against each other, it’s supposed to be about the sisterhood of women and raising each other up, not competing about who has it worse.❤️😢 (I’m equally for feminism and for men’s rights as well, both women and men need human rights❤️) I really believe that Susan B. Anthony would be heartbroken if she saw what was happening now, her message was never to be angry or hateful towards men😢 She very much loved her father and revered him, she was very pro-family and loved women and men equally❤️ (Please don’t mistake my words, I also think a family can be made up of two mothers or two fathers, but I do think children need the influence of both positive role model women and men in their lives❤️❤️) I think a monogamous homosexual couple making a family can be a beautiful thing, and a monogamous heterosexual couple making a family can be an equally beautiful thing❤️) Others are free to disagree with me,but I think true devotion and happiness requires monogamy❤️

[@orlokministries]

you know the reason why the idea of men's rights is such a silly thing to bring up right? It's because men have never been a group that has had their rights diminished or deprived. They have never had to fight or struggle for any right in society, they have had everything that could be given to them already in reach. Groups like women, homosexual men and transgender people have always had to fight for their rights and still do struggle for all of the same things men have.

Beauty standards and the backlash to beauty standards both reinforce the idea that you must be beautiful to be considered a human with value.

[@SpiritualPsychotherapyServices]

🐟 26. FEMINISM: Feminism is the penultimate evil at present because feminism is based on the misguided assumption that women are equal to (or even SUPERIOR to) men. The only institution more destructive to human society than feminism, is illegitimate governance (see Chapter 22). Equality is non-existent in this transactional sphere. Equality exists ONLY in abstract concepts such as mathematics, and arguably, on the sub-atomic level. Even identical twins are not perfectly identical in every possible criterion. Geneticists have discovered that a pair of so-called “identical twins” share, on average, about ninety-four percent of their genetics by the time they are born. Mothers of such twins can instinctually differentiate between them, since there are always distinguishing features. Unfortunately, for many persons, the objective fact that equality among humans is non-existent, is impossible to accept, since they are afflicted with what is known as a “leftist” mentality. Although a female can exhibit superior traits, skills, etcetera, to some men, a woman can never have AUTHORITY over a man. Therefore, the assertion that women are subordinate to men is based purely on this notion of authority, not on any particular attribute, such as intelligence, wisdom, beauty, physical strength, or artistic talent. Simply because a woman may be stronger or more highly-educated than her husband, for instance, does not give her the right to instruct her master in any way. No true man has ever been attracted to a domineering, bossy female. Truth be told, no true man would ever descend to the level of accepting counsel from any of his subordinates. A man should fully obey his appointed MASTERS (such as his father, grandfather, uncle, employer, or spiritual teacher), and never emasculate himself by submitting to the dictates of a mere female, or any other lesser. Feminist ideology commonly manifests as the desire for women to perform the societal role of the OPPOSITE gender, that is to say, partaking in intrinsically male activities, such as studying at educational institutions, working for a wage, or building business enterprises (or even more preposterously, usurping the position of a national leader or the member of the Holy Priesthood!). Feminism also advocates for preferential treatment of females in institutions which may have traditionally favoured men and/or boys, even when “the tables have been COMPLETELY turned-around the other way”, so to speak. In a nutshell, feminists suffer from the psychological disorder termed “penis envy”, and fundamentally yearn to become males in every conceivable way (sometimes even biologically, despite the incontrovertible fact that transitioning from one gender to the other gender being a physiological impossibility). This aspiration of a person wishing to seize the position of another person, deemed to be of higher value, is a common phenomenon in MALES as well, such as working-class men who consider themselves to be rulers/kings or priests. Every so-called “priest” and every national leader on earth, with virtually no exceptions, is either a worker, a businessman, or even more risibly, a mere female, who is literally stealing the occupation of an authentic guru or a king. Feminists are victims of the SLAVISH mentality which the instigators of that evil, pernicious ideology (Karl Marx and the so-called "Globalist Elite") have always wanted them to be. It is extremely unfortunate that the vast majority of women are unable to see the obvious truth that feminist ideology wants the destruction of women (as well as all society), as can clearly be seen at present. At least it is clearly seen by any decent, holy and intelligent person. Due to feminist indoctrination and lack of proper discipline, as a consequence of an increasingly profane and secular world, modern women have become EXTREMELY debased. The typical woman nowadays is afflicted with bitterness, uncontrolled emotions (especially jealousy), gross immodesty, greed, arrogance, misery, snobbishness, and loneliness due to a false sense of “independence”, with hardly a single noble quality. In those gynocentric societies which are dominated by feminism, men are urged to avoid any UNNECESSARY contact with the opposite gender. Those (heterosexual) males who disregard this sage advice will invariably regret their choices, either after experiencing false allegations against them, the destruction of their families through divorce, or after constant rejection by snobby women. However, let it be made clear: the greatest enemy of males is NOT the opposite sex, but those uxorious “white-knight” so-called “men” who do the bidding of feminist ideologues, since they have far greater power than females, despite being truly pathetic-excuses-for-men. wom•an n. pl. wom•en She who gives “woe” to “man” - therefore “wo(e)man”. "Though I have searched repeatedly, I have not found what I was looking for. Only one out of a thousand men is virtuous, but not one woman!" Ecclesiastes 7:28. “Holy Bible” (New Living Translation).
