A lot of misogyny is unconscious. Some of the most vicious misogeny is from women towards other women. One insidious form of it is “selective feminism” - a theoretical support of other women that really only applies to women that we like.

We can support women's' right to be in a position of power & encourage women any ideology to run for office, while still not individually agreeing w/ them. Example: I'm happy for u, & ur supporters, that u were able to run & have a platform, but I still believe u're unqualified.

Thank you. I’m a pro-life feminist. That is a stumbling point for many. Yet I marvel and rejoice to see women empowered, succeeding, healthy, and loving/receiving love. Partnering, nurturing, educated, leading...you name it. And also life-giving.

Don’t hate while passed out.

Do you support Trans women competing against biological women in sports? I just want to know what kind of feminist you are.

Or women of the white race

Why would I support a woman just because she’s a woman? There are a lot of terrible women out there. I’ll support the good ones.

"selective feminism"? You mean what I call fake "feminism" - the "glass ceiling"/Hillary Clinton types, right? The ones who don't give a ... about the millions of women struggling daily to survive & feed their kids. You mean those ones?
