Hear me out: Many unhinged liberal "feminist" takes are a result of the fact that libfems think women have agency they don't actually have, or think that claiming women's "agency" erases the objective harm of violence
This is why we get takes like "women can consent to brutality"
I need to write longform about this--it's very hard to condense--but the result of celebrating women's "choices" and "agency" (much of it fictional) is that women have stopped putting the responsibility on males for perpetrating violence and harassment
It actually barely matters what "choice" a woman makes in MOST situations. You should not be asking why a woman subjects herself to regular, unpleasant or degrading penetrative sex; you should be asking why the MALE endangers and demeans her this way.
You should not be asking why a woman "fails to stand up for herself" while being harassed on the street; you should be asking why the male feels entitled to corner her and make advances on a female student who's minding her own business
You should not be asking why a girl "wants" to date a male her father's age or why she "wants" to be degraded; you should be asking why the MALE gets off on using and degrading someone who could be his child.
When you put it this way, it becomes clear how evil all this is.
Stop talking about your cHoiCes and aGencY, or about women's "choices," for a moment. Stop centering yourself.
Ask why the MALE, who has 99% of the physical and sexual power in all these scenarios, is perpetrating these acts. Once you frame it this way, there's no way to deny it
Libfems have convinced women that their "choices" are paramount and dictate the morality of all things. This is bullshit. People make self-harming or destructive choices all the time.
If someone weaker or vulnerable (a girl) tries to make a self-harming "choice," the onus is always on the male to not take advantage of her.
If the male takes advantage of her low self-worth to abuse her, he was a monster all along, & looking for an excuse.
Should women learn "assertiveness" (where safely applicable) & make better choices? Probably. But none of this would even be an issue without male monstrosity waiting to prey on self-harming young girls
This is why individualist choice "feminism" fails. It always misplaces blame
I've recently seen someone try to compare women "consenting" to BDSM/rough sex with stunt doubles consenting to be in dangerous/violent scenes in movies.
So you are saying that being in a completely scripted and highly choreographed scene you rehearsed multiple times with other professionals and with fail-safes and medical personnel standing by to minimize the risk of someone actually getting hurt in front of a camera crew to shoot a movie.... is the same as a woman "consenting" to getting choked and whipped until she bleeds because it makes her sick boyfriend's penis hard.
Yeah... right.
I think it's important to always understand that a woman has as much agency naturally as a man, if not more, but under patriarchy, capitalism, whatever you want to call this monolith of non-freedom for most people but a select few, we are all brainwashed.
Women are naturally deeper thinkers than men. That's why this system intentionally destroys the female. People at the top NEED to destroy women so they can package us up and placate males into being slaves for the system by letting them abuse us. Occassionally, they'll spout something about the importance of women, or how Melania Trump is a feminist or whatnot, but the entire system runs on broken women catering to men who, in a natural state, would not have access to the female collective. Society is not natural. Capitalism is a system of patriarchy. Women are enslaved to think being a man's servant for the rest of her life is a burden to him. Men are brainwashed into thinking they're the victims and that brutalizing women doesn't have consequences, and the rich capitalists at the top are laughing. There is a whole system here meant to kill the love for women in men, and just straight up kill female agency. I would be very careful of thinking even libfems don't have agency. That's a redpill talking point, and is more caused by modern society than biology. Redpill men would not like actual female agency - because natural female agency realizes men are built to fight and die, not be pampered.
This is what ultimately sickens me about liberal feminism. All across the internet, leftist are criticizing individualist capitalist "your choice" ideology, whether that be in business, interpersonal relations, advertising, home buying, colleges. Etc
Yet, mysteriously, leftist men always defend choice feminism 🤔. They know and love supporting rapists.
