women do not take risks, nor make effort, since they get men to take risks for and make effort them.
and men are happy to take risks, to make effort for women (men think that they are valuable, if they manage to win something, once they are in a situation that they believe is risky or requires effort).
in fact, men even feel sad and depressed when they do not get noticed by women.

Kollontai (pic related) was responsible for the institution of the International Working Women's Day and the only female leader after the Soviet Revolution.
"Kollontai believed that, like the state, the family unit would wither away once the second stage of communism became a reality. She viewed marriage and traditional families as legacies of the oppressive, property-rights-based, egoist past. Under Communism, both men and women would work for, and be supported by, society, not their families. Similarly, their children would be wards of, and reared basically by society."
That's a feminist, the rest is garbage

Frances Swiney was pretty redpilled check out some of her work

>Frances Swiney, a prominent Edwardian suffragist and Theosophist, used both scientific/eugenic ideas and spiritualism to argue that women represented a higher stage of evolutionary development than men and that women therefore should assume positions of greater prominence in British society. Although eugenics lent scientific authority to feminism, its emphasis on physical reproduction also meant that women were increasingly defined in terms of their childbearing potential and that anything which interfered with motherhood, such as careers, was a threat to civilization. Swiney proved instrumental in circumventing the eugenic dilemma and its seeming biological imperative by redefining eugenics as a moral and spiritual enterprise in which women could modify evolution through force of will. In particular, Swiney drew upon Theosophical spiritualism to argue that human evolution would reach its highest phase in the feminization of the species. Frances Swiney's work helps complexify the Victorian women's movement and remains important to that feminist paradigm which has sought to define women in terms other than biological.

Feminism would be laughably absurd farce if it wasn't taken seriously. As it is, it's just terrifying.

It's 100% projection. For example, the woman in this image is acting "entitled" to participate in a technical subculture when her idiot gender contributed approximately nothing to it, and she's demanding this completely male subculture invented and sustained by males cater to her, while calling them "entitled" for enjoying the fruits of their efforts.

Liberals tend to assume that life imitates art/ideology, which is the reverse of science and sanity. Things are associated with males because males do them and have always done them, not the reverse.

I am a virgin NEET ascetic currently at stage IV of the Norwood Scale and an addict to hardcore pornography for the best part of ten years, and what I've noticed in my reading of hundreds of blog posts, reddit comments and message board discussions between women or at least frequented by women is that "slutty" women, aka women who are perceived to be very sexual and whose characters are associated with sex and eroticism tend to be relatively predictable and unadventurous in terms of open-mindedness when it comes to having sex and personal preferences associated with the act itself, largely, in my opinion, because their characters and perspectives are overwhelmingly the result of a culture which promotes the sexual experience while continuing to shame and ostrichsize those who may be perceived as "weird" or "obsessed" about something that is not conspicuously advertised as something one is allowed to be obsessed with, while those girls considered "shy" or "studious" etc tend to be extremely perverted, in terms of their appreciation of unconventional sexual acts, I mean I myself have viewed hundreds of amateur of videos wherein the female protagonists resembled the kind of girls that I mistakenly perhaps in retrospect identified as naive, innocent, childlike in their desire merely for romantic affection and so on during my four years in college (during which time I attracted but failed to ask out a single one of these girls, for reasons my psychologist and I have spent the past 1.5 years attempting to work out) but who were actually likely to be the exact kind of girls who enjoyed things like golden showers, analingus (given), "rape-play", daddy roleplay, choking, spitting, hitting, spanking and roleplay in which she was the "unwitting" victim and / or captor of a malevolent, aggressive, callous male using her body for to appease his sadistic ambitions.

>men can't force women to have abortions

It's actually saying that women can force men to provide children, while being able to choose whether or not to provide or care for children themselves. In the interest of equality, men should be allowed, within the amount of time a woman has to get an abortion, to decide whether or not they want to support the unborn child. This way the woman can choose whether or not to get an abortion based on the support of the father and/or her own financial situation, not with the support of the father as a given.

This is true: as a white, cis male, I can vouch that I am often invited to the high-class "white only" clubs where other white, cis males such as myself discuss new ways to oppress people who aren't us. I just got off the cellular phone to Donald Trump and he told me that I did a good job for being white and I told him thank you, Lord.

It is true, us Caucasians don't really care about anything but ourselves which is why we are unable to mentally conceive critical thoughts and opinions.

Sorry, I must totter off, the white country club are intending to resurrect Ayn Rand and discuss how higher education can get even more thoroughly fucked over. It's good to be white.

Even the highest earning secretaries don't earn that much. Even if you have a great and understanding boss it's still a shit job overall with little opportunity for advancement.

I'm not even remotely glorifying being a security guard but I've been one and it's a pretty comfy job. I did three fucking things at the job. Sit around writing/reading/shitposting on my phone, give people directions and answer questions, and occasionally walk around to inspect stuff.

I wouldn't advocate for that position except for the fact that some states are completely in the wrong in giving women all of the decision holding power.
