  • I would agree and disagree.

    You are right but I think “ignoring” “men’s issues” harms the feministic cause and consequently the “dying of miscarriage” problem. As sad as it is PR is sometimes very important and e.g. the lie in the post doesn’t help the PR and a lot of young men don’t feel supported but attacked by the current framing of feminism.


  • I am also very supportive of women’s rights but lying is not helpful.

    Honestly the point that it tries to make is not the point that it makes either. It could be understood as “let’s ban abortion everywhere”, and I don’t think that is the point that it tries to make.

    I am in favor of bodily autonomy and I don’t care what the law currently is anywhere, it should be a given.











  • If anything, your position is in opposition to nihilism.

    There are different kinds of nihilism. Your position is in contradiction with the “purest” form. The absence of an objective value in anything and everything. Your position clearly values personal consent.

    There are other kind of nihilism, like political nihilism, might not be in conflict with your position. On the other hand, existential nihilism, the belief that there is no inherent meaning/value in life, might seem to align with your position but I think it is difficult to argue in favor of consent, even to being alive, while believing that life is inherently meaningless. I mean, why does the consent of a meaningless being matter to anyone? Of course, you could take an adsurdism position to it but then I would argue that calling you nihilistic would be a mischaracterization.
