'Feminazi' is the demonization of feminism via comparing the woman's rights movement to Adolf Hitler.

Needless to say, it is the most incompetent and insensitive terminology refering to:

A. The victims who suffered tremendously under Hitler's regime during WW2.
B. Feminism and how misunderstood it's many messages are today in modern society.

So even if आप aren't a feminist, या maybe even not even pro-feminist (which i can assure आप are completely different things), आप most definately shouldn't tolerate this fad. Here are four, quick, clear reasons simply to start आप off. I could go on for hours on how opressive and and perilous the word 'feminazi' is, and how it's spectactularly fallacious. But here are just my MAIN reasons.

1. It desensitises and exploits the suffering of the holocaust victims.

Millions were starved, tortured, suffocated and enslaved under the command of the Axis powers. Not only the Jewish, but homosexuals, Gyspies, transvestites, Italians, Mexicans and people of colour to name a few suffered in ways indescribable due to Fascism. Calling a sub-culture who fights for EQUALITY rather than for a Aryan race is making this suffering seem like a usual and casual part of life in modern society. If आप use a extreme term to describe some-thing else entirely (and in this case positive), it almost undermines how horrific the holocaust was. To simplify this theory, heres an example:

आप are holding a packet of walkers crisps* (or potato-chips, to use universal terminology). Your फ्रेंड्स keep calling these crisps Doritos , but when आप look down and taste the crisps, they do appear to be in-fact, walkers . However, your large group of फ्रेंड्स keep insisting that these are doritos (Or और commonly known as Nachos) , and after a while आप start to believe it and assume that doritos must be exactly like walkers . When it is most definatly not.

Compare this analogy to the subject at hand. walkers can represent feminism, and doritos Fascism.
From this, आप can probably see how delussional and ignorant the term 'Feminazi' is already. It can brainwash and manipulate our veiwpoint, and is most definately not respectful to the survivors of WW2 या to women.

2. It antagonises the liberation of women and feminism.

This is the most pressing and obvious issue with
'Feminazi',at least in my opinion.
As well as terrestrializing Nationalism, it also makes the female race and supporters of their rights seem like a issue, and chauvinism the victim. This is quite openly intentional, and i don't think any of the misogynists even care that it's factually wrong.
Theres not really much और I can add to this, as it is quite simple in concept, but still worrying.

3. It is historically inaccurate.

Let me put it this way: Hitler and all of his followers were NOT FEMINISTS. If anything, the 1940s in Germany was just as male-dominated and shaped द्वारा gender roles as the rest of the back-ward world. This may seem petty, but i प्यार history, and surely आप should know about WW2 before the age of 10?

4. It is hypocritical.

So the masculist campaign has spent thousands of American currency on things like "femi-nazi awareness" billboards, posters and leaflets, and it is a लोकप्रिय conversation for MRAs which some people even write omnious blogs centered on the term.

In the words of Shakespeare: Methinks thou dost protest too much .

Spending valuable time and money on a hate group sounds a little too much like the events of 1939 to 1940. If आप are so transfixed on outing feminists as Nazis and trying to turn society against them, perhaps आप need to look in the mirror.

So, there आप have it.
Don't use the word "feminazi". I know if i was to tell this to a misoygnist it would probably fall on deaf ears, but अगला time someone uses that word, fight back with awesome logic and watch there smug smile fade.

I have read all पुस्तकें and seen the movies.
Most importantly, the fact that it’s कल्पना doesn’t excuse the themes and messages in the book. Fiction is merely a vehicle humans developed to communicate important lessons, values and philosophies. I am not claiming any of the implications I discuss were intentional on SMeyer’s part.

There’s a meme I’ve seen online where feminists say that the word “females” shouldn’t be used because of its dehumanizing connotations. The idea is that “female” relates to the sex of a biological organism, and when one is using that kind of terminology they tend to be discussing nonhuman जानवर in a scientific fashion. So, when men talk about “females” when they mean “women”, it comes off as dehumanizing. While I agree to an extent, as I believe some men do use this to purposefully distance themselves from women, I also think this decree that female humans should be...

Look at all of the stereotypes that existed ever since the beginning of time! They're so toxic and so degrading!

Stereotype 1: Every woman needs a man (which is an issue in many high schools, even colleges and such).

Stereotype 2: All women need rescuing and constant protection.

Stereotype 3: A woman who stands up for herself is considered b*tchy, bossy, and unladylike.

Stereotype 4: A woman is supposed to be submissive and f*cking cowardly! (which is so common)

Stereotype 5: All women are less intellegent, और foolish, and can't learn anything.

Stereotype 6: Women are the weakest of the weak....

Farida broke all barriers

How miserably sad and depressing. Farida Afridi, an activist for tribal women in Pakistan, was murdered today. (You know how. आप don’t even need to look. Leaving घर for work. Guys on motorcycles. Guns. Died on the way to the hospital.)

Along with her sister Noor Zia, Farida was committed to social change and economic emancipation for women from the platform of a welfare organisation called the Society for Appraisal and Women Empowerment in Rural Areas (SAWERA). Both women were among the founding members of the NGO and had a Masters...
