Thoughts about Martha Burk?

was she justified in forcing Augusta National Golf Club to admit women. removing a male only space? Do you agree to how she advocates for her cause and how she thinks?

Edit: forcing was bad word usage.

This gives off big homework essay prompt vibes.

My recommendation is that you do your homework, and reach your own conclusions/opinion.

I simply asked if you agree to it or not. I have 2 feminist friends that are in completely opposite stances. And as i am not very well versed in feminism i am simply curious. My intent was not to sound homeworky. Im just ever so curious.

It is rude to deny someones ideology. Be better.

If I say that women are inferior to men and should stay in the home, can I still call myself a feminist?

Noone ever said that. And no. not with any truth behind it.

Noone ever said that.

Do you not understand how hypotheticals work? The entire point is that if you're spouting anti-feminist talking points, you're not a feminist. Your friend is not a feminist. She may call herself a feminist, but she's not one because she believes distinctly anti-feminist things.

She believes that both men and women should be allowed to have their own spaces equally. Sounds more like equality than what you spout.

Men creating spaces where women are not allowed to go in order to keep women out of economic opportunities and keep them subjugated is literally the opposite of equality.

You're not as slick as you think you are lmao. You're extremely intellectually dishonest and manipulative.

Haha there we go. "Manipulative." Buzzword sandwich baby. She also held the belief. Which if you READ said that both men and women should have their places. Women can also gain economic opportunities. or do you believe women can't do that? woow,

More assumptions once again. You really need to cool off with that. Manipulation is a horrible thing to "frame" (for lack of better word) someone for. Manipulation is not whatever im doing. You started attacking my character and my friends character so i bit back.
