And this ladies and gentlemen, is why ACTUALLY reading sources of information other than tweets, is important.

He's well within his right to do that as well. World views change. Having been part of the problem does not create a magical preclusion from seeing the truth later. In fact, insider insight often makes the critique sharper.

Ma'am, Herman can't control Herman.

Atleast you apply the principle consistently. I don't agree, but I can respect that.

Just because something is exploitative, doesn't mean we respond by limiting the agency that allows people to opt in and out of that thing. 1. Sex work 2. Hazardous employment 3. Blood plasma donations 4. Dating older men The LITERAL point of the feminist movement is, let US decide. So, let people decide.

I think the real crisis is the women who want to be prescriptive about when autonomy is lent and when it must be returned. When choice is valid, and when it is not. Modern day feminist conversations are simply an exercise in paternalism by those who believe they are better read and know better, and those that are seemingly incapable of making simple moral judgments for themselves.

You haven't read many books on feminism have you? You're just here shooting from the hip. Saying whatever. Guys!! Please read.

A lot of you guys would save us all a lot of pain if you actually read the books you pretend to read. It really isn't enough to just sound like you've read a book. Read it.

Actually, no. The subject precedes the action. ALWAYS. Feminism cannot prescribe an approved list of outcomes without first recognizing women as complete, sovereign, moral agents. Determining who decides is the fundamental act of equality. Invalidating a woman's decision because an observer disapproves of what is decided reverts to paternalism. ​Secondly, we probably need to stop depicting women as passengers on a train for the victimized. This erases agency. While socioeconomic conditions heavily constrain people's options, reducing a woman's decision (such as commercial surrogacy or transactional labor) solely to helpless coercion treats her as an object lacking reason or intentionality, rather than a rational actor navigating harsh realities. ​Lastly, autonomy exists on a continuum. No choice in any society is made under conditions of total, unconstrained freedom. Demanding an idealized, friction-free environment before recognizing a woman's decision as valid ultimately disenfranchises marginalized women living in the real world.

We don't respond to crises based on the way things SHOULD be. We respond based on the way things are. Yes, Policing should be better. Cameras should be on every corner. Women should be able to do whatever they please, whenever they please, while we hunt down the murderer/s. But none of these things are as they should be. So we respond in a way that shows we understand our sad reality. We respond by saying, we're hunting the murderer/s down. While we do that, Please be safe. It's unfortunate, but we'd rather have you alive and upset, than the other thing.

An imperfect solution isn't always a useless solution. No precaution offers an absolute guarantee, but caution consistently reduces exposure. 1. Yes, let's deal with the systemic and social issues that create an environment fear and danger. 2. Let's also do what we can to keep people alive while we're going number 1. 3. Vote for a leadership that actually cares. Doing number requires direction and resources. Leaders decide where resources go.

Hey, look at me, I have a high g-factor. But I can't seem to win the fight against bad grammar. 😅😅 #PunctuationIsOptional

Please delete this! We're not allowed to issue warnings until we've made the perpetrators account. You're encroaching on liberties and you need to stop.

"Hey, women, listen, here's the deal: We need you to exercise autonomy in these 17 areas, and fight to the death for that right. In so far as these 3 areas are concerned, nope, they're off limits for you. But it's for your own good. We draw the autonomy line here because you're either too poor or too dumb to make the decision yourself, so go ahead and delegate decisions in these 3 areas to the collective ethos of us, more educated, better off, smarter women. We'll tell you whats best for you."

You're upset that they didnt warn you. Youre also upset that they are warning you. Do you really not see the problem here?

Can someone with the time and crayons explain it to him?

It's the books you say must be read in your bio that gave it away.

A mind blissfully unburdened by the friction of thought.

You know you didn't do any research. Now, we know it too.

None of you asking why the SA government flat out refused to adopt this model? 😅 Ok. Aluta ke
