Hey, what's with the masculinist thing in your info post? I wanted to get into the movement and I would like to hear why you are one.
oh!! well it turns out men are being criticized for being "stupid" or "s3xist" when in reality their chromosome is degenerating and some feminism is actually in on this which we call MISANDRY
(masc equivalent to misogyny! it kinda sucks!! :( )
and basically, i'm masculinist NOT because i'm s3xist but because i want men to have a better life. they started this, so we shouldn't think they're stupid and all!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
and here's some mascul/feminist userboxes i made too! i really do want more equality and less hate posed towards the masculine
women stay wicked, men stay marvelous!!
thanks for asking anon!! have a nice day! :]

It's baffling how some self-proclaimed feminists harbor animosity towards men, and similarly, masculinists towards women. It's hard to understand why some people who claim to support equality still end up hating on the opposite gender. It's disheartening to witness individuals, who have chosen male partners, exhibit hostility towards other men. Likewise, it's concerning to see boys fiercely defend their mothers or girlfriends, yet engage in derogatory behavior towards other women. It's not fair to judge all men or women based on a few bad experiences. It's essential to recognize that condemning an entire gender based on personal experiences is unjustifiable and harmful.

Science mocked the old patriarchal ideology, ripped through its pretensions, and left it as we know it today—a legacy of rituals, legends and bedtime stories retold to children. Science in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries was the sworn enemy of ghosts and mystery and mumbo jumbo—the traditional trappings of patriarchy—and an old friend to revolutionaries. Socialists like Karl Marx and feminists like Charlotte Perkins Gilman were devotees of science as a liberating force against injustice and domination. “Let us never forget that long before we did,” proclaimed a participant in the Paris Commune, “the sciences and philosophy fought against the tyrants.”
We are indebted, then, to the critical and scientific spirit which arose with the Market, for defeating the patriarchal ideology which had for centuries upheld the tyrants. But to be opposed to patriarchal structures of authority is not necessarily to be feminist in intent or sensibility. The emerging world view of the new age was, in fact, distinctly masculinist. It was a world view which proceeded from the Market, from the realm of economic, or "public" life. It was by its nature external to women, capable of seeing them only as "others" or aliens.
Patriarchal ideology subordinated women too, of course. But it was not formed in some other realm than that inhabited by women, for life in the Old Order had not been fractured into separate realms. Masculinist opinion, however, is cast in a realm apart from women. It proceeds from the male half of what has become a sexually segregated world. It reflects not some innate male bias but the logic and assumptions of that realm, which are the logic and assumptions of the capitalist market.
The masculinist view of human nature almost automatically excludes woman and her nature. Whether expressed in popular opinion or learned science, it is not only biased toward biological man and his nature, but specifically toward capitalist man, the "economic man" described by Adam Smith. Economic man leads a profoundly lonely existence. Like the hard little atoms of eighteenth-century physics, he courses through space on his own trajectory, only incidentally interacting with the swarm of other atomized men, each bound to his own path. He is propelled by an urgent sense of self-interest, and guided by a purely rational and calculative intellect.
To economic man, the inanimate things of the marketplace—money and the commodities which represent money—are alive and possessed of almost sacred significance. Conversely, things truly alive are, from a strictly "rational" point of view, worthless except as they impinge on the Market and affect one's economic self-interest: employees are "production factors"; a good wife is an "asset," etc. The successful economic man, the capitalist, ceaselessly transforms life—human labor and effort—into lifeless capital, an activity which is to him eminently rational, sane and "human." Ultimately the laws of the Market come to appear as the laws of human nature.
From this vantage point, woman inevitably appears alien, mysterious. She inhabits (or is supposed to inhabit) the "other" realm, the realm of private life, which looks from the Market like a pre-industrial backwater, or a looking-glass land that inverts all that is normal in the "real" world of men. The limited functions now reserved for that realm attach to woman's person and make her too appear to be an anachronism, or a curious inversion of normality. Biologically and psychologically, she seems to contradict the basic principles of the Market. The Market transforms human activities and needs into dead things—commodities—woman can, and does, create life. Economic man is an individual, a monad, connected to others only through a network of impersonal economic relationships; woman is embedded in the family, permitted no individual identity apart from her biological relationships to others. Economic man acts in perfect self-interest; a woman cannot base her relationships within the family on the principle of quid pro quo: she gives.

Howling laughing tormenting myself etc., I just think it would be funny to let Genly (from earth with an 100+ years outdated view of gender relations and probably also dating) and Estraven (not like that) hook up casually and have wildly differing attitudes about it. Genly’s mentally like I’m madly in love I’ve never loved like this and i have to do the right thing i have to marry him, and Estraven’s like well that was nice and I like him but I’m not going to rush in to anything. let’s do it again for sure tho. So like two months later you get Genly anxiously asking, “what are we?” and Estraven going “we are friends!” And seeing the despondent look on Genly’s face, helpfully adding “…best?”

roman is racist and classist tho being besties with fascists fits very well with his character but not really for the reasons you described
i mean obviously duh. but, like, they're ALL racist and classist. only roman ends up overtly rooting for the fascist candidate (although they all very much aid and abet fascism -- how could they not? they're all fucking fascism-aligned lmao they're a massive capitalistic corporation enforcing the hierarchical hegemony of modern society) so that's kinda more what i was talking about. like fascism fits well with ALL of them bc they are ALL racist and classist, like, that's the baseline for literally every main succession character tbh, but why does this specific brand of fascism end up appealing to roman in particular?

In its uncertainty, feminism at this moment hedges with a philosophy of individual choice: let there be rights; let there be choices; let there be no right or wrong way for all women. Neo-rationalism is thus condoned (after all it champions the right to individual choices). And neo-romanticism is condemned only for its absolutism, for its hostility to free choice. As neo-romanticist ideology gains ground, fueled by the subjective crisis in women's lives, feminism seems to be come ever more nervously defensive of "choice" for its own sake, less and less prone to pass judgment on the alternatives, or to ask how these came to be the choices in the first place.
The reason we hang back is because there are no answers left but the most radical ones. We cannot assimilate into a masculinist society without doing violence to our own nature, which is, of course, human nature. But neither can we retreat into domestic isolation, clinging to an archaic feminine ideal. Nor can we deny that the dilemma is a social issue, and abandon each other to our own "free choices" when the choices are not of our making and we are not "free."
The Woman Question in the end is not the question of women. It is not we who are the problem and it is not our needs which are the mystery. From our subjective perspective (denied by centuries of masculinist "science" and analysis), the Woman Question becomes the question of how shall we all—women and children and men—organize our lives together. This is a question which has no answer in the marketplace or among the throng of experts who sell their wisdom there. And this is the only question.
There are clues to the answer in the distant past, in a gynocentric era that linked woman's nurturance to a tradition of skill, caring to craft. There are the outlines of a solution in the contours of the industrial era, with its promise of a collective strength and knowledge surpassing all past human efforts to provide for human needs. And there are impulses toward the truth in each one of us. In our very confusion, in our legacy of repressed energy and half-forgotten wisdom, lies the understanding that it is not we who must change but the social order which marginalized women in the first place and with us all "human values."
The romantic/rationalist alternative is no longer acceptable: we refuse to remain on the margins of society, and we refuse to enter that society on its terms. If we reject these alternatives, then the challenge is to frame a moral outlook which proceeds from women's needs and experiences but which cannot be trivialized, sentimentalized, or domesticated. A synthesis which transcends both the rationalist and romanticist poles must necessarily challenge the masculinist social order itself. It must insist that the human values that women were assigned to preserve expand out of the confines of private life and become the organizing principles of society. This is the vision that is implicit in feminism—a society that is organized around human needs: a society in which child raising is not dismissed as each woman's individual problem, but in which the nurturance and well-being of all children is a transcendent public priority . . . a society in which healing is not a commodity distributed according to the dictates of profit but is integral to the network of community life . . . in which wisdom about daily life is not hoarded by "experts" or doled out as a commodity but is drawn from the experience of all people and freely shared among them.
This is the most radical vision but there are no human alternatives. The Market, with its financial abstractions, deformed science, and obsession with dead things—must be pushed back to the margins. And the "womanly" values of community and caring must rise to the center as the only human principles.

C'est quand même remarquable. Ce site est rempli de blogs pseudoféministes qui se complaisent à mort dans l'opprobre et la menace en souhaitant les pires tortures à tous ceux qui paraissent en désaccord avec eux, et qui font mine de défendre seuls contre tous la grande cause féminine, mais si une femme leur déplaît, c'est directement la calomnie misogyne, et on tape vite dans le graveleux.
Et ça me fascine réellement. Je me demande toujours comment on fonctionne dans la vie avec un tel degré de dissonance cognitive, avec une incapacité pareille à percevoir sa propre vérité. On dirait que certaines personnes s'abrutissent à plaisir à fantasmer l'existence au lieu de la vivre. Vous allez me dire que c'est une bonne façon de se donner raison sans argumentaire mais je trouve que ça pollue un peu le débat.
