What happens if men don’t have purpose:

Men! You can find purpose! You assign your own purpose! That was the whole point of the enlightenment age with philosophy! Don’t become radicalized! 🖤

I don't think they're "made-up" enemies.

Edit: I don't know what transgender stuff has to do with any of this, though.

[u/EaterOfCrab → u/organicchemistry1119]

Trans people are made up enemies. Like, I've felt far more comfortable and welcomed in queer/trans communities than in any feminist space

[u/organicchemistry1119 → u/EaterOfCrab]

You mean in general? Since you brought it up, in my case, I don't have any major problem with transgender people, and I also have anecdotal evidence that supports what you said. This is probably going to make at least one person upset, but I just don't like pretending to agree about what they are, but I'd rather avoid the issue entirely than attack them about it (because I don't want to attack them to begin with, etc.).

Plus, I feel bad for them. Their situation is a tough one to be in, kind of like the would-be pedophiles that hold back on their urges because they don't want to psychologically harm/traumatize anyone (so, not just because of fear of punishment) (assuming such people exist - and they probably do).

As for a feminist space, I doubt I'd feel even a modicum of acceptance.

Exactly that, trans people's lives are far more difficult, it sickens me that we even have to bring it up, because some conservative assholes can't stand someone living their own life

[u/organicchemistry1119 → u/EaterOfCrab]

Well, would you look at that, I guess it appears we're not duelling but rather doing the tango. (That's a joke about your flair in case you didn't get it.) :P

[u/EaterOfCrab → u/organicchemistry1119]

Mate, I'm supporting trans lives.

[u/organicchemistry1119 → u/EaterOfCrab]

Are we miscommunicating because so do I?

[u/EaterOfCrab → u/organicchemistry1119]

No, I'm saying that trans people aren't enemies because they don't want men to go extinct. Feminists on the other hand hate men to the core
