• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Do you identify as a feminist?

    I don't recall saying 'if you're cis you don't examine gender binaries', and I'd appreciate it if you didn't put words in my mouth.

    Do you identify as a feminist?

    Look, you really can't say what is or isn't offensive to someone else. Personally it is hurtful; maybe not for days/weeks/whatever but it is hurtful. The point is, though, that you can't tell people how they should feel in any given situation. Sure, maybe they need therapy, maybe they're in...

    Do you identify as a feminist?

    Another reason why there is no reason to identify as 'masculist' or 'malenist' is because sexism against women is largely also sexism against men. For example telling women they have to fit into so-and-so gender binaries is telling men they have to fit into the opposite gender binary: women are...

    Do you identify as a feminist?

    :[ I'm a boy. Many things are misleading. That's why you learn about them and, when you learn you're wrong, you stop clinging to your misinformation. Most of the people who posted here acknowledged that feminism is not women>men. It's gender equality. But they still don't identify as...

    Do you identify as a feminist?

    Then I'm confused by your position. Is feminism somehow not a movement about gender equality? And if it is a movement about that, why would you choose not to identify as part of it, if you are for gender equality? I can understand the desire for a different uh, term, than feminist, but I...

    Do you identify as a feminist?

    I'm gonna reiterate a point I made earlier: it's very easy to not identify as a feminist, to not realize what feminism is, and that sexism still exists and is a huge part of our society when you are a cisgendered, hetero white male, or even just a few of those. For example: if you don't fit...

    Do you identify as a feminist?

    And this is why people insisting they don't want to associate with feminism bug me. Who gives a fuck if a title has negative connotations? Everything has negative connotations. Pokemon has negative connotations. You're on a forum that's made up of probably 99% queer members; we all have...

    Do you identify as a feminist?

    Feminism extends further than that. The feminism movement was the first to posit the theory that gender=/=sex, and is the the largest movement saying that gender is (at least for the most part) something you learn. The feminist movement extends to rape culture; are you against rape? Does rape...

    Do you identify as a feminist?

    You are suggesting feminists are not for equal rights. As for the poll, yes, I am a feminist.
