      It’s a major theme of these discussions, when women recognize and discuss how the culture hurts us, there will always be men who self select to identify with these social criticism and martyr themselves. Historical and legal patriarchy be damned, women prioritizing their own safety makes men the REAL victims here.🙄

        Or maybe it’s just immature women that can’t fathom being a part of the problem ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Keep whining though. One day someone might care

        That wasn’t my point at all. I support my sisters of color. What I don’t support is white women who benefit from the power structures of white supremacy and deem their status within that status quo more important than anything else, so they bit vote accordingly. Nice deflection though. 🙄 right back at you.

            Ma’am, you didn’t read the article.

            Edit: Hell, this smug illiterate didn’t even read the subheading that is right at the top and people upvoted it. Remember, people, bodily autonomy isn’t the only issue at stake with far-right policies, basic literacy suffers as well.

      Not exactly personal, just tiresome to hear all the time. This ain’t affect me in the least. It’s also ridiculous that’s there’s no outcry regarding the MAJORITY of white women who consistently vote this way. The term “white feminism” was created for a reason.

        I’m sure women of other races would be interested in this. I think it’s great. If a woman can’t have their own pussy, neither can men. Seems fair to me.

          They can frame this as a “man” problem if they’d like, but that won’t get their “pussies” back. It’s a white problem first and old problem second. Maybe say they won’t date white men and figure out something that white women care about beyond themselves and attack that. Like I said in another comment, this won’t affect me directly, so whatever on the effects on a dating/sex boycott. That just isn’t the problem. We have a problem in the white community, followed to some degree by problems in the Latino and Asian communities. Some of that is an old people problem generally, but not all of it.

            No woman of color is ever oppressed by men of color. It’s common knowledge. Men of color support a woman’s right to choose what they do with their bodies. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

            Racist.

              Trying to deflect by calling me racist and bringing up unrelated “women of color being oppressed by men of color.” If only you were as smart or clever as you thought you were. The article is about American women upset trump was elected and thinking about incorporating something similar to the “4B” movement in the US because they view it as somehow “men’s” fault trump was elected. Exit polling shows it was overwhelming white people, INCLUDING white women, who elected trump. I don’t need a string of smug ass emojis because I actually have a point.

              Clown.

                When blaming it all on white people, it’s appropriate to mention non-white people. The 4B movement is not “white women,” it’s women.

                Clearly, you’re not going to be getting any pussy. Too bad you’ll blame “white people” and not conservative voters—which are not all white.

                You’ve missed the whole point of it.

                  I’m not concerned with “getting pussy” at all, lol. You have no power here. When white people make up over 70% of the electorate and they overwhelmingly vote Republican, especially when they’ve done so consistently ever since a certain piece of civil rights legislation was passed, then yes, I will blame white people. I’m sorry it gets your white panties in a bunch, and it’s uncomfortable for you to confront that most of your family is filth, but these are the facts. Maybe stop burying your head in the sand and start getting your house in order.

                    I have no power? lol. I’m not trying to get power over anyone, bud. Nice try.

                    And if anyone is burying their head, it’s the person complaining about 4B.

                    Let women be women ffs.

                    And to be fair, my family is pretty shitty, but only half of them are white—and most of them are trashy conservatives, especially the non-white side. Mostly I blame that on poor education, which isn’t really their fault.
