@iky_fwjett@biigrem People will spend hours debating whether the story was borrowed, but get uncomfortable when you ask why the woman ended up carrying most of the blame.
btw the biblical Adam & Eve story was actually stolen from ancient *matriarchal* Sumerian myths, the tale of Enki & Ninhursag around 2,000 BCE.
They flipped the script when adding it to the Abrahamic books, turning powerful goddesses women and sacred serpents into villains just to push a patriarchal agenda…… Eve wasn't the problem, she was the "superior" main character.
@iky_fwjett@ceraliza People notice feminism because it’s visible resistance. They don’t notice the assumptions it’s resisting because those have been normalized.
The narrative that feminists inappropriately insert their politics into everything while men mind their business is a lie. Men insert their politics & male agendas into jokes, television, literature, children's books & movies, toys, religion, social norms, stereotypes, cultures, traditions, classrooms, the economy, and the entire system of human living. The only difference is that the male has declared himself the voice of objectivity: to challenge man is to challenge all that is life
@iky_fwjett@Be_like_calvin2 The male loneliness epidemic is real. So is the fact that some of the cultural norms many men defend are the same ones making genuine connection harder to find.
Male lonliness epidemic?
So the demographic of people that demonizes love and vulnerability by saying that it's "gay", orients their romantic lives around violence (porn), wants intimacy with no strings attached, doesn't engage with therapy or emotional regulation, says all women are hes that want to use them, listens to rap music that degrades women, idolizes male figures who are abusers, actively votes against women's interests, thinks being kind and gentle with a woman is embarrassing and thinks women don't know what's best for them are feeling lonely? I wonder why.
For every man that doesn't understand why women are fed up. Last year Uber received 235 reports of rape, 280 reports of attempted rape & 5,981 reports of sexual abuse between 2022 and 2023. So, men, I ask you, have you ever called your Uber and feared the driver may rape you?
@iky_fwjett@Demo4fhs Some men want a woman who pays half the bills, does most of the housework, raises the kids, supports his dreams, and somehow still call that 50/50.

The problem isn't that women are now independent. It is that men aren't.
The thing I always hate about going to any family's house is that women don't get to be guests. Men do. We have to immediately offer to help cook, serve, clean, etc. If not, it's not "polite." You're looked down upon for resting as a guest. I've never had guests in my home do anything.
@iky_fwjett@arikoyarii If sexism is disappearing, why do so many young women feel more pressure than ever to be beautiful, desirable, and constantly performing online?
GenZ kids seem to think they're solving sexism, but all I see is more gender baggage, higher beauty standards, more objectification, more sexualization of young girls, and more pseudo-woke language for men to use to ignore the lived realities of women.
If you are a man who thinks it's funny to make misogynist jokes purely to make your female friends uncomfortable/angry, then you are a misogynist. It is not "just a joke." You literally are finding humor in the discomfort and dehumanization of women.
You are not helping, you are not making satire. You are just being misogynist.
