GB women, please vote

Do you agree or disagree with Libsam's comments?
And if so, please explain your reasoning.


In response to a thread in which the OP expressed misogynistic views about american women:

I fear we will see more men thinking like the OP.

But I don't think it's just American women, it's women from Western Societies. Sweden, Germany, Great Britain, all these countries taking in refugees.
Western men hear their western women talk about Patriarchy Bad, then these same women turn around and accept men from a culture that treats women like shit with open arms.

The repercussions are going to hurt.

Libsam's comments make a lot of sense. Adding to that:

But for a few pockets of misogyny and 1950's attitudes within certain social circles, we live in a pretty much feministic society
--- Islam by definition is paternalistic and it clashes with western feminist values.

Faced with the difficult choice of choosing between two conflicting values, western society has decided to close an eye to blatant misogynistic practices of Islam, in the name of protecting an ethnic minority group.

Yet with the decline in western birth rates Islam will soon be part of the mainstream religion and it will have a word to say in many areas of western life.
If Islam's misogynistic practices aren't confronted and corrected now, our society will become increasingly paternalistic.

The poll has no value if you don't explain your reasoning.

I voted yes, but I also explained why

You should have included a maybe option for men...

No maybes. So much waffling around when confronted with two things that are mutually exclussive:
- Claim that you're a feminist
- while never challenging any of Islam's paternalistic or even misogynistic practices. In fact, those who do so are labelled as racists by the same feminists

That the maybe option would just be a means towards avoiding any commitment.
Which is why the yes and no answers shouldd be accompanied by explanations.



Not that I would expect many answers tho

The modern doctrinaire Liberal maintains conflicting position comfortably compartmentalized...

The treatment of women in Islam is a myth of the Islamophobes.

They find a few examples and imply it implicates all.

Just as the Liberal finds a few Westernized Muslims and imply that it means the vast majority...

Exactly. You identified so well the cognitive distortions that account for such a contradictory attitude which baffled me for quite some time.


N.B.
I don't fully agree with Libsam's comments as in I don't think that the attitude re women of our brothers, parents, sons and neighbours will change towards becoming more misogynistic.

But she raised good points, in that our society will become increasingly tolerant of misogynistic practices
- See Sharia Courts. The same people who condemned such practices when practiced in muslim countries are now defending them, just because they are practiced in the UK.

And there are so many other arguments, the list is long.

Like in the movie 'Idiocracy' where idiots are considered the norm, and everybody else is considered second class.

You inbred alts and posters breed too much.
