I really wish feminism had ended up better than it has. Despite its achievements, in the past decade and more it has failed to focus on what it should such as preventing the loss of abortion and contraceptive access for all women. Meanwhile, the movement has become inundated with weird prudish neo-puritans who both infantilize women (tee-hee) and demonize men primarily via pointless social media posturing.

This focus on the exact wrong things destroyed any chance of keeping Roe as well as making many men (like me) who in the past have been extremely supportive of feminism pull back from it. No, I am not becoming an incel or a manosphere member, but I’m also not a sex-crazed demon and I don’t think any woman under 45 is or should be treated like a fragile baby.

Whatever that is, that ain’t for me and I won’t have anything to do with it.

You know all was lost when a “real woman” became defined as someone who could not successfully cross a parking lot without experiencing cardiac arrest, while the definition of a “real man” for that “real woman” was still a six-pack-bearing millionaire more than six feet tall.

That tells you who is controlling the cultural conversation right there.
