Man Hater? by craftyselena8551 in writing

I personally feel no words are bad. Only immature ignorant fools get triggered over words.

I have been called a Man Hater many times over the years.

Wow you must be proud of that to make it your opening line.

Why? Is it because I am a strong, independent woman?

Doubt it because that is not a form of hate.

Because I don't tolerate disrespect from men?

Also doubt it because not tolerating disrespect is not a form of hate.

Because I am very outspoken, and don't hold anything back?

Maybe, depending on the stuff you are outspoken about. If you are outspoken saying sexist things about men and making hateful comments about men in general then yeah that could be the reason.

Because I don't depend on men, the fact that I never ask for help?

Doubt it again as again it has nothing to do with man hating.

My husband said my independence is one of the things he loved about me when we met.

That is nice but has nothing to do with the topic and is nothing but an appeal to emotion.

Is it fair for a woman to be called a man hater just because she is independent, and doesn't depend on a man?

No it is not but I doubt that is why you were called a man hater because it has nothing to do with hating men.

I don't think so, and I think it is way past time for men to expect it to be that way.

You think it is way past time for men to expect it to be fair? no one calls women "men haters" unless they are saying some hateful stuff towards men. I doubt that men in the past thought it was fair to call people things they aren't.

So I will continue to be the way that I am and if I continue to be called a man hater then so be it.

Well if you keep saying shit bad about men then I'm sure it will happen. Not others fault if you are a man hater and people call you on it. Don't get why that is something you would be proud of.

I will continue to be me and will not change that for anyone!

It is good unless your a sexist man hating bigot. Then it is not good to not be open to new ideas.

So with all that done, What does any of this have to do with feminism or being a feminist?

Comes off as one big vague bullshit story that has nothing to do with anything someone would call you a man hater for. unless your bragging and fishing for compliments.

Cant wait to hear Your response.

Sort:  

Hate is hate, called by any other name still smells like shit. I hate election time, it stirs up the shit...gender, race, religion....as soon as election is over, it's back in the closet where all the other shit is hidden. Seriously....they don't care, the powers that feed off of this shit, they're using our hate to manipulate us.

How did this become about politics?

Ill still be calling out ignorance after the election.

I have been on the net chatting with people since the late 90s during election periods for the executive office chat boards are inundated with this crap....I should write an article with all the examples. I never see any change in the media regarding using women/men's bodies to sell product or ideology but I hear about it 24/7 during campaign time. As soon as election is over people look for the next trendy issue

George W.] Bush and [Barack] Obama have much in common. The wars of both presidents, and the wars of Clinton and Reagan, Carter and Ford, Nixon and Kennedy, are justified by the enduring myth of exceptional America - a myth the late Harold Pinter described as “a brilliant, witty, highly successful act of hypnosis.”

The clever young man who recently made it to the White House is a very fine hypnotist, partly because it is so extraordinary to see an African-American at the pinnacle of power in the land of slavery. However, this is the 21st century, and race - together with gender and even class - can be very seductive tools of propaganda. For what matters, above race and gender, is the class one serves.

I would love it if the stupid stopped after the election but I only see the stupid growing. lol

Well, let's stop feeding it....

I will not support stupid and I have to call it out.
The free market of ideas is needed to fix the level of retard people constantly pour out.

I have been taught to speak in a way that helps to heal but I really suck at talking and writing. I usually walk away because just yelling at stupidity doesn't help. I usually end up yelling...But I agree we have to speak up, but how to do this with compassion is usually beyond my abilities.

By the way craftselena sounds really confused and I don't blame her....

I agree she sounds confused, hopefully she figures it out.

Time will tell, I'm old and I noticed time is a great teacher.

Agreed. Divisive crap to make people fight.

Divide et impera! I see men and women as complementary ....but that view does not make a lot of profit and for those who don't fit this socirties gender roles look up Two Spirit people of Native Americans.

You are definitely my spirit sister. So glad I met you.

I knew it! It's the chickens, they are very spiritual...haha!!!

I doubt that article was written by a female who understands ANYTHING about gender issues.

XD
The comments in the comment section make ma laugh!

Like I replied to her earlier, no idea why anyone would call her a man hater or how this type of thing would even come about unless she's literally going around yelling "I hate men". To me at least 'independent woman' equals 'great catch, not a gold digger'.

yeah none of the things she states besides the out spoken part could be taken as hate. unless she yelling some hateful shit. lol

Maybe its some mental gymnastic shit like this. lol
