Feminism isn’t enough, it’s time we demand male oppression

It’s time for a change. It’s time we place some respect on women and give them what they deserve. Feminism simply isn’t enough — it’s not intersectional enough, it’s not achieving enough, it’s not moving fast enough.
With it being International Women’s Month, I got to thinking about how feminism just isn’t doing it for me anymore. Equality between men and women? Absolutely not. Ladies, it’s about time we demand misandry. That’s right — we need to oppress men.
Feminism has far too long catered to men in assuring them we just want to be seen as the same. Babe, I am not the same. Men are smelly, naive and hormone driven — we can’t trust them with even the smallest amount of power.
The Y chromosome has spent too long being in the middle of everyone’s business, especially considering research points to it weakening over time. The Y already has less genes on it and evolution will not be kind. I’m starting to wonder why we ever thought that shrively little thing was superior.
There is simply nothing appealing about men and I don’t understand it. Their fragile egos have caused all of the world’s issues, from enslaving people of color they didn’t understand to destroying the environment for capitalistic gain. Who’s left to clean up the mess?
The age of girlbosses needs to come to a close. I don’t want to hear about white feminists shattering the glass ceiling, or whatever. We need to totally reverse the privilege pyramid and put men in their rightful place.
Feminism has been trying to right men’s wrongs for over 150 years, and it’s clear that it’s not enough.
Misandry presents the ultimate solution. The age of the white cishet man needs to come to a close.
With women at the helm, this ship would run much smoother. Finally, a person capable of empathy making decisions for the world.
Not only will misandry benefit women, non-binary folks and all patriarchy-affected people, but it will benefit men as well. No longer will they be hurting themselves in their confusion: a big strong woman can come along and take care of them.
With misandry, men will no longer fear being held accountable for sexual harassment and assault because they won’t have the power to threaten the women around them in the first place. Seems like a win-win situation to me.
Men might be thinking, “How will women even cope without us telling them what to do?” and that is so close to having validity. Yet, I think we’ll manage. Anything you can do, we can do better.
“But men dominate the workforce,” said @MerryMisogynist420 on Twitter. “Men make up 73.3% of Congress, 87% of engineers and 96.5% of firefighters. Get back in the kitchen, females.”
OK, and? Anybody can spray some water, build some bridges or vote no on life-saving legislation. Men are not special, women can do it in half the time with twice the style.
It’s time we place some respect on women and give them what they deserve. Feminism simply isn’t enough — it’s not intersectional enough, it’s not achieving enough, it’s not moving fast enough. At the current rate, it’ll take over 250 years for the gender pay gap to close.
I don’t deserve the same as my male counterparts, I deserve better. All of the ladies and non-binary people do. It’s time we got what we deserved.

Now woman, do you want to end dignity of us men that we gave you the rights? Look comprehend that birth rates are declining because of this ideology, and isn’t this article you made is a bit egocentric and bias? Maybe you are being naïve to be honest.

By the way the “Y” gene had already gone thru this once and regenerated itself with dropping a few chromosomes we no longer needed! And guess what a whole civilization of men still exists! And the “y” gene isn’t going anywhere I do not know why your superior brain thought it was going extinct! Have a great life with your cats!

Only a coward would post this article/Manifesto of violent intent as satire.
Lol, Lauren Karmo be a man!
Show some courage like a Man & come out.
Don’t hide behind “satire” Nut up or sTfu.

Just on behalf of men everywhere, I’m so sorry about the stupidity of the guys responding to this post… I swear, we’re not all like this… But maybe you do need to rethink the satire, as judging by these insecure little boys I think women probably should be in charge. What a bunch of agro nutcases. Get off the internet and learn some goddamn social skills.

By the way I took screenshot with my tablet of what I said and I’m going to be putting that on the internet the show that all you feminist are trying to hide the truth from the other ladies out there in the world.
Max • Jun 15, 2021 at 4:33 PM
The reason as to why birth rates and marriage rate are so low is because of what happens when you ladies divorce for no reason at all and it’s because of that that we men are going to take you right out of the genetic gene pool we are going to make sure that you feminist die alone with no kids no grandkids and no great grandkids.
Max • Jun 15, 2021 at 4:04 PM
You can try your pression on us man, but it won’t work. See we know who does all of the hard work on building houses, and every thing else, and the last battle of the sexes has already been done and the ladies lost and what am I referring to I’m talking about where 14 ladies were on one desert island and 14 men were put on a different Desert Island and how the lady came close to dying 4 different times. oh and let’s not forget one lady on purposely left because she couldn’t handle it and the man well they survived with no problems, and no men had to be taken off the Island at all. So who really needs who? And we are on purposely not getting married to any of you ladies and if we do find someone to get married to she’s not going to be from the United States she’s going to be what we are looking for and she will have been raised the right way from our point of view. And we are making sure not having kids with any of you feminist on purpose do you think it’s really an accident that the birth rate and the marriage rate is so low?

For this to be satire it would have to have been written by a normal, sweet, intelligent, charming, feminine woman who appreciates men the way men appreciate her. If it was written by a feminist it’s definitely not satire.
Vaughan Ellis • Jun 7, 2021 at 8:35 AM
There is no satire at all in the article this is what the writer truly thinks, If it what she wishes came to pass then you could guarantee that the majority of men would walk away from all of the dirty dangerous jobs that keep society running and head off into the bush and leave society to sink or swim.
As for the ‘Gender pay gap’ IT DOESN’T EXIST, IF IT DID EVERY JOB SLOT WOULD BE FILLED BY WOMEN BECAUSE THEY’D COST LESS TO EMPLOY GOING BY THE LOGIC SHE USES.
As for ‘It’s time we got what we deserved.’ just be careful what you wish for you might get it and then find you do not like The writer thinks she is oppressed, when she is actually living in the most entitled time women in the west ever have everything from the school system through to the legal system is skewed in their favour, while men are ignored across the board.
The opinion of the writer of this article is everything we have come to expect from a product of the west coast universities, god help it if it ever has to physically work for a living as I doubt that it will be able to put food on the table.

You aren’t fooling anyone, this article is NOT satire. These are the author’s real thoughts and opinions. She just can’t openly admit it because she (rightly) recognizes that she’d get a colossal amount of backlash and probably lose her job. So what’s her solution? Her solution is to write an article saying EXACTLY what she really believes but marking it as “satire” to protect herself with the shield of plausible deniability so she can say “Hey, stop being ridiculous… I don’t REALLY believe these things. Don’t you see that it’s clearly marked as satire?”. When in reality we all know she’s being dead serious. Even her supporters in the comments fully recognize this.
CM • Jun 7, 2021 at 5:34 AM
Here we go again, this old tactic. The tactic where a coward spews forth a raging bigoted hate fueled rant and then cowers in the corner behind the lie of “hey it was just a joke / satire”. Then on cue some midwit pops up to defend them by saying something like “c’mon guys look up the definition of satire”.
The problem with that is satire actually needs some level of humor to count, whereas this was just a bile filled vomit of indignation that the author knew full well they would be called out on and so decided to cravenly attach a ‘get of bigotry’ free card to it. Sorry not buying it, sticking a label of ‘satire’ on pile of tripe doesn’t mean its no longer tripe.
Daniel Pembrink • Jun 7, 2021 at 12:28 AM
Funny thing is I do honestly not believe this article is satire. This is a genuine feminist rant and call to crank up the heat and we are seeing a melt down.
Only that the author know it will attract bad attention so a satire stamp label is put on this.
I can feel the emotions behind the the text and the tunnel vision mind behind it. As I am used to read articles like this by actual modern day femenist. And this “satire” is just as real as those text, checking in all of my boxes to look out for.
I can feel resentment, anger, frustration. It is just so sad and shallow with basing your identity with something so meaningless like gender.
There is so much more a whole world to explore beyond the tunnel vision of looking things though a gender, feminist and emotional Marxism perspective. Of oppressor and oppressed.
Not to mention even if it is “satire,” the fact it is so hard now days to differentiate reality and satire really says how cray the world has gotten. Welcome to the clown world, enjoy your stay.
With articles and jokes on the onion, and other popular culture like Simpson and family guy predicting stuff that will happen in the future and real Life as they joked how cray those ideas and situations are. Yet they are actually occurring and unfolding before our eyes.

So Oakland post supports Blatant hate speech
Evidencing entrenched misandry and hypocracy of the matriarchal society
If a women says this then its just light hearted satire
If a man said the reverse then he would be cancelled and there would be feminists beating on his door
But hey is sells the news for your repulsive rag

While it’s satire, there is often truth in laughter. ♂️
Samy • Jun 6, 2021 at 9:33 PM
Ok so if this is so then we can say in also a “satirical style” that :
Men have built everything and invented everything: civilization, sciences, philosophy, progress … until arriving at contraception, and digital platforms like those that allow you to express your anti-man views
You can keep playing on it
The real problem with this delirium of some feminists is that it will do a lot of harm for a large part of women themselves … But they are in a complete ideological delirium to come to understand it
aMan • Jun 6, 2021 at 9:13 PM
good one.
this is just a bait so you read the linked articles. and she wrote it like this to show you are also emotional and not as rational as you think you are. fuck dudes. stop dropping out of college and develop your masculinity so you don’t jump to a simple provocation. Women love to test us.
Also so you understand the issues the feminist movement sees women are facing in USA today.
Is like one of those big ads about some product that come in the format of a blogpost.
also an issue for men that will take millions of years but Y chromosome is going to disappear.
no problem because it is only an on/off switch to grow balls and start the sexual differentiation because everything else is coded in every other chromosome. So it doesn’t mean males are going to go extinct it means males and females are going to be differentiated by a different method like temperature, but that is long far distant in the future by then Climate Change might have already revert us to primitivism.
Congratulations Lauren, you exposed these emotional dudes.
PS: wage gap due to misogyny is a myth, the difference comes from choice men and women made in the workplace. https://scholar.harvard.edu/files/bolotnyy/files/be_gendergap.pdf
STEM careers in Scandinavian countries, the most gender equal, are dominated by men, women have there all the support from their welfare state to study them, yet they don’t choose it and even if they do they abandon it during college or while working in a job. While in India inequality makes STEM jobs appealing to everyone including women because is a booming industry that pays well and households need the wage of 2 engineers to make it to the end of the month.

This is not satire. This is how they (feminists) actually think. Stay away from feminists gents. They are angry, bitter and violent.
TS • Jun 6, 2021 at 8:40 PM
I’m not buying this is “satire” for a second. There is deep seated resentment in this woman’s mind and I believe this is her real view on what we need to do. Never mind the fact the world would collapse in on itself within a week. While it’s true a majority of those with degrees and participating in higher education are women, it’s also true that a majority of those degrees and fields of study are worthless. Gender Studies, Art History, and Performing Arts. You going to get your blue haired arse out there and work on the power grid? Going to go down into the sewers to keep our sanitary system running? Going to immediately go out and sign up for selective services? Since men have been the ones fighting all the wars, I’m fine with you toxic feminists dying for God and Country in every war going forward. Satire my arse. On the bright side, this toxic world view only rips the mask off you crazed feminists and show the world how sick you are.
Hello • Jun 6, 2021 at 8:00 PM
Hmmm how about we write similar article and label it satire but a plot twist it will be why women are f*cked in the head? 🙂 SATIRE 🙂
T • Jun 1, 2021 at 10:56 PM
Can you imagine how everybody is going to lose their minds all over the place if a man wrote an article pro-misogyny and just called it just satire
You're not OK • May 25, 2021 at 8:52 AM
Jocobiy, you’re not making things any better. In fact, you just proved their point.
Jocobiy • May 12, 2021 at 2:04 PM
So, uh, idiots of the internet! It says Satire. If you don’t know what that means, get off your ass, or tab rather, and look it up. While it’s true this article is a bit much, it’s also not supposed to be truly serious. If you’re too lazy, the definition of satire by google is the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people’s stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues. Now, the issue of this article is not that it’s even here or that its making a “joke” but rather that some people, women, actually feel this way. But even then, why? Why would women feel the need to feel this way if there wasn’t an actual problem. Get your head out of your ass and look at how society treats women in general, and maybe you might have a clue. But still, I also agree with one of the other comments, you can’t fight fire with fire. It won’t work, and everything will get worse. I’m not saying that what is being done is enough or that there aren’t more effective ways to fight misogyny but fighting oppression with oppression just leads to violence. Maybe that’s necessary at this point, America had to fight a war just to make slavery outlawed, so maybe something similar has to happen. I just hope that it won’t come to that. But still, idiots of the internet, specifically those who look at this article thinking it’s real and won’t look up one word, get your head out of your ass and think for once. With your brain, not d***

It’s not satire it’s the facts masquerading as satire!

Right, so this is equality, is it? Essentially saying that you hate men, and they are all smelly and hormone driven? They are all sexist? All misogynist? How painfully ignorant, naïve. This is not what we need more of – all these posts are going to do is promote hatred to men, which is already quite common due to men traditionally being sexist to women. I’ve heard of feminism crossing the line, but this is appalling. @Bob, really, are you genuinely saying this? Men are too stupid? Every single one? I’m not going to deny that women experience sexism, but this is not the way to combat it. You’re trying to fight a fire with fire – hatred and sexism with hatred and sexism. Yes, we can all quite clearly see that it reads ‘satire’, but even so, this post should be deleted. I am horrified by it, and making men hate themselves because of something many traditionally did a while ago is not the way forward, and if neither you or the creator of this post can see that, I feel so, so sorry for you, your ignorance, and quite frankly, what seems to me to be stupidity. Also, I can see that you are actually stereotyping women here, by saying they can all do better than men. You are aware that some men are actually strong and tall, and some women weak and emotional? What a terrible post.

So I’m assuming you have pure hatred of your father and your brother then? Since all men are “smelly, naive and hormone driven”. Just make sure you start your oppression at home and see how that works out..
Florida Man • Mar 11, 2021 at 11:27 PM
I hope this is a joke… If it isn’t, then this just proves what the so called “modern feminists want. The scary part is that this is already happening, the education system is suppressing boys and girls grades are much higher and women make up around 60% of collage graduates and 55% of voters despite boys scoring the same or better on the SAT scores and males making up a slightly higher total population. I cant believe that this kind of stuff is acceptable.

Be careful in your declarations of enmity. Sooner or later someone will respond to you and in accordance as what would be afforded to an enemy.
