ad feminem

Where "ad hominem" arguments refer to those consisting of replying to factual claims by attacking a characteristic or belief of the individual making the argument or claim - rather than by addressing the substance of the argument - an "ad feminem" argument would characterize the same phenomenon, but in a specifically feminist context (as in contentious debates between Women's Studies scholars).

I am so weary of these ad feminem attacks by so-called sex positive women, against those of us working to create options for women who want to leave the sex trade.

Feminists are very much like the fascists of the third reich. For some reason they have this insane delusion that women should have the same rights as men. You can not reason with feminists since they do not understand words, so their arguments consist of small grunts and dissatisfied screaming.

-It really annoys me when feminists tell you that they're fighting for genderequality, but at the same time put up terms that will make an inferior race.

-Yeah, being inferior is female business.

-I love you Trevor,

-I love you too, John, but not in a homosexual way, since women would just protest again how we prefer men just because they're men.

Feminism

A movement who's goal is to have equality for all genders. Contrary to popular belief, this goal is not focused on bringing down men, and men's rights, or reducing any genders rights at all. It is about bringing women up to men's level in society.

People who believe in equal rights for everyone, believe in feminism.

Feminist

People that believe there are more than two genders and make fake theories off of thoughts and belief but have no scientific evidence to prove otherwise.

Or

Woman who believe in gender equality but do not care about men and boys saying that men are the root of all evil but women can also be evil. This is excluding the non feminists.

Stop yelling at us feminist!

feminist

A female who seeks equality. Often confused with feminazis. Unlike feminazi they feel that men and women should be equally treated at all cost, feminazis go beyong equality and acts like women are superior.

There's nothing wrong with being a feminist and seeking equality.
