Is there one single positive thing we can attribute to feminism after 1990

I remember as a kid watching cartoons in the late 90s and early 2000s, and we'd have characters in shows that were stereotypically feminist.
And they're always be depicted as irrational psychos. For as long as I remember, they've been the subject a parody and not worthy of genuine respect

Oh well your vague memories of children's cartoons certainly must depict an accurate history of gender issues.

There it is, folks. RIP Feminism, 1990, the year that full equality between the genders was achieved!
 
Feminists who believed in and wanted equality certainly became the minority in contrast to the misandrists who call themselves that today.

Damn, I was compiling a list in my head,,,,then I noticed the "1990".

I have nothing.
 
One must wonder what causes this level of ignorance to be proudly displayed.

Yeah, ideally no one would be bigoted and irrational enough to identify themselves as a modern "feminist."

Still waiting for that example of positive social reforms coming out of third wave feminism.
 
Third Wave Feminism has betrayed a century of honorable Feminism. It is completely full of ****.

Instead of attacking the OP perhaps you three could compile that list the OP was looking for? Or should I consider your posts as trolling?

His claim is absurd garbage. Any somewhat educated or socially aware person can see that. There is no need to provide evidence, he would just deny it anyway.

What you should do is have a clue about feminism and social issues, and realize this.

Our replies are entirely reasonable. This isn't a classroom, it's a debate website. I don't give a damn what you idiotically consider the posts, so consider them whatever you want.

Crap or get off the pot.

How are they reasonable? A question was asked, you started attacking the person posing the question. Tell me, do you treat children the same way when they ask a question?

And yes, this IS a debate site. Debating is one person posing a question and then people talk about that question. Preferably trying to answer the question. Here is some examples for you to go by...

Intelligence Squared

Maybe you'll learn how to debate.

Wrong. Debating is taking a position and that position being criticized. What you describe is a classroom.

The OP is a horribly ignorant position and worthy of derision. No evidence is required. The debate is still won.

Maybe you'll learn how to debate.

Maybe you should learn how to debate instead of posting your confusion about what constitutes trolling. Should I provide a youtube video so you can figure that out?

I guess those people at Intelligence Squared have it all wrong then. :shrug: Guess you know better than people that do it for a living huh? :roll:

If the OP was actually wrong then you'd be able to provide a list for him instead of attacking the messenger.

You're kidding, right? The glass ceiling is barely there. Case closed.

You now admit the OP took a position and didn't just ask a question. We're making progress.

No one is attacking the messenger. People attacked his pathetic anecdotal evidence and the ignorance behind his claim.

You're the one claiming that he's wrong. I'm going off of what you said. Not what the OP said.

Come now, where's that list that the OP asked for?

From OP Post: Is there one single positive thing we can attribute to feminism after 1990

Going to answer or are you going to keep avoiding answering because you cannot answer his question? Shouldn't be that hard. He's only asked for one instance.

There's no need. Attacking his evidence and the ignorance behind his claim is sufficient to win the debate.

In case it hasn't been mentioned yet, I look forward to your "here's a list of the positive things that can definitely be attributed to feminism since 1990"...

All social progress for women since 1990, world-wide, can be attributed to feminism. That you need a list of social progress only displays a deep and apparently willful ignorance.
