Feminism, shmeminism

You know, I still get sort of nudges every once in a while from people based on the our moon content saying, why don't you take feminism seriously enough, the threat of feminism seriously enough? You're so hard on red pill guys, and you're so easy on the women and the feminists. Look. I don't care what women talk about amongst themselves. I don't care about what women say to each other to pump each other up.

Women's behavior is determined by the man that they're with, period. And women cannot make a man do something, and they cannot make a man stop doing something. Men are going to do what they're going to do. If a woman stops a man from doing something, it's because he chose to stop, not because she made him. Women don't have that kind of coercive power over men.

Period. And if they do, then it's not because of their power or because of the power of feminism, it's because of your weakness as a man. I'm concerned about men being just and men being fair and men treating women properly, men treating humans properly. I'm worried about men's behavior and conduct. I'm not worried about women because they are a subordinate class of people in terms of power, not in terms of value or rights or or so on.

Because of because of their status, they have more consideration because you give more consideration to those who are weaker than you. Those who cannot do for themselves as adequately as you can do for yourself, they are to be taken care of. That's a Wama. If feminism causes a woman to misbehave, well, that's her man's problem. I mean, first of all, you need to to to decide what you mean by feminism because it doesn't mean anything and everything that empowers women and gives them advantages and and rights that are granted to them.

That's not feminism because Islam grants women all sorts of rights, all sorts of advantages, all sorts of accommodations and considerations are granted to women in Islam. None of that is feminism. All of that is Islam. If you have a problem with those things, then you have a problem with the deen, and that's what I wanna talk to you about. If you're a man and you have a problem with those things, then you're not being a good man, you're not being a good Muslim if you're not fulfilling the rights that it is your responsibility as a Muslim, it's your duty as a Muslim to see that these rights are fulfilled on the earth.

So if you're trying to deny those rights to women, then, yeah, you need there's a problem with your manhood. Now if you're talking about a a type of feminism that is granting women rights and advantages above and beyond what Islam grants them, then, yeah, okay, that's an issue. But that's an issue between a man and his wife or a father and his daughter. That's not between me and women who are not related to me. They're not my problem.

It's not interesting to me. Men are going to go out and do whatever it is that they're gonna go out and do, and no one can stop them but another man. I mean, you notice, I haven't really followed this Johnny Depp thing, but you it's it's unavoidable to see things from the Johnny Depp Amber Heard defamation trial. It's it's unavoidable to see some of it. And there was this incident where she's beating on him, hitting him.

It's a physical fight from her side apparently, and she's hitting him and he says, okay, you wanna hit me again? She hits him again. You wanna hit me again? She hits him again. And then he says, okay, you're done.

Grabs her by the shoulders, sets her down on the bed and says, okay, I'm leaving now. Don't follow me. Okay. This is the power difference. This is the power dynamic.

Men are by nature a more powerful creation than women. You can feel whatever way you want to about it. Whether you're a man or a woman, you can feel whatever way you want to about it, but that that's an unavoidable, irreducible reality of life, of creation as Allah made it. The power advantage that men have by nature obliges them with a sense of duty and responsibility towards women and those weaker than them. If you want to be the of the earth, that means to take care of everything.

Right? That means to take care of everything. Take care of those who are weaker than you. Take care of those who are under your under your authority. Don't tyrannize them and oppress them.

You're gonna be responsible for that. You're gonna be held accountable for that. But for women, obviously, there is a lower level of responsibility. Obviously, there is a lower level of accountability because there's a lower capacity. And again, you can feel however you want to about it, but that's the way it is.

A man makes a decision about how much mistreatment or abuse that he's willing to put up with from a woman, but you understand that's a choice that a man can make that a woman sometimes can't make. If she is being abused and oppressed by her husband or by her father, she doesn't have the same choices that a man does. So the system has tried to accommodate this and give women more avenues for redress of grievances against tyrannical men. I don't have a problem with that. Don't be a tyrannical man.

Will women take advantage of that and try to abuse men through those types of systems? Yes. Have men abused the absence of those avenues of redress in the past? Yes. So none of this matters to me.

None of this is important to me. What matters is men's conduct. I'm not interested and don't be interested in what goes on between women. If you're if you're constantly preoccupied with women's approval, women's permission, women's satisfaction, what women think, what women want, what women, women, women, women, women. Dude, you're a man.

Be a man. Get on with your life. Do what you're gonna do. Women will, by nature, comply with what the man in their life wants to do and what the man in their life wants. So be nice about it.

Just be nice about it. Don't be intimidated. I mean, of these red pill guys, they are like, you're so intimidated by women. It's it's it's hilarious. And then at the same time, you're trying to advise men about masculinity.

When you're so intimidated by women and preoccupied with women, you don't know how to be a man. You fundamentally have a problem as a man.
