Feminists: Why don't you realize how condescending & patronizing you are towards women who do not agree with you?

Just because a movement seeks to advantage one demographic of the population as feminism does, does not mean all members of that demographic should support it. Many people are against discrimination even if it advantages them. I'm white, but I do not support the KKK for example.

Also, while advantaging women as feminism promotes may sound wonderful to a young college feminist, it may not have the same appeal to a housewife who doesn't want her husband to lose a job to a less qualified female under affirmative action and doesn't want her son to be discriminated against in a biased education system. As feminism makes it more and more clear they do not promote the equality they claim, they have been losing popular support and I imagine this trend will continue. Polls show most people prefer gender equality.

I think there are two primary reasons: 1: Feminism has gotten such a bad name due to its activities that most women don't want the negative association. 2: Most women don't want to give more power to a movement they perceive as being fundamentally unfair, similar to not supporting groups that funnel funding to over seas terror groups.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
