You don't have to be a female to be a feminist.

I already said that. I am a feminist. I said if I were a woman, I’d be a feminist. Honestly I have a hard time respecting anyone who doesn’t stand up for themselves.

A lot of women are socialized to not speak up to men, especially in Christian and conservative communities.

Feminism creates perpetual victims who will never be happy.

I do not agree. Look at the recent events at Cornell. Women must stand up for women. And men must stand up for women. If you are not willing to fight for those you love it was never love to begin with.

This doesn’t mean men should be doormats. But my marital issues are to be fair a first-world problem. It is unfair to lack choices if you are a decent man, but when I look at how women are treated everywhere it enrages me. It is a sickness in the culture, and frankly almost ALL cultures. I even see women denigrate women, all the time. I believe that how women are treated tells you all need to know about the quality of a culture.

Always choose to do right and be kind. If you can’t respect those you love, you respect no one at all.

Cornell is shaping up to be very similar to the Duke lacrosse situation, so I wouldn’t hold that as an argument just yet. Feminism is no longer about supporting women.
