Feminist Accuses English Language Of Being Sexist, Gets Brilliantly Schooled By Linguist

Indeed, that is bad feminism.

Sounds like a #NotAll

How so ? And I thought the topic was language not Biology ?

Yes, actually they do. Modern feminism teaches that mean are inherently beastly, oppressive savages rife with toxic masculinity. If you don't like it, maybe you should school your own feminist brethren.

I've never heard of this rational feminism you talk about, where can I find this rare species?

Of course patriarchy exists! Unfortunately it's most dumb people who have the most b******t to say.

Well "THE PATRIARCHY" as if there was some nebulous Illuminati-like organization doesn't exist, but "patriarchy" as a concept in society does exist.

No, this proves that the OP is dumb as a bag of rocks.

NO Patriarchy ISN’T REAL! Patriarchy was a theory put forward by early feminists to try and explain why things are the way they are but it’s just that a theory. Just think logically if Patriarchy was real then why would men force and teach boys that they are the ones who should do the work, why make them die in wars and pretty much get the s**t end of the stick in society?!

What this show is that this isn't evidence of patriarchy. But on a closer inspection nothing is, quite seriously, not your "the devil" equivalent of it. Of course, there was a patriarchy, one where some men held the polis oriented administrative positions, while women held the home oriented ones.

Talking about our language being patriarchal, it has been argued that words in our language did not directly come to be what they appear ---- words associated with female did not just get formed from words that were basically male. However, history has a lot to say about gender and it has obviously been biased. Trough time there have been developing societies that have matured. There is a point at which they recognized bias, and abuse. This happened in their economics and government, and in their treatment of one another, and especially in the changes they made in their language. Perhaps grudgingly, or perhaps joyfully, but usually due to logic from the energy of those who are most affected. Again there is a point at which it becomes clear that titles, names, words, references, etc. whether intended or not---continue to present connotations of misrepresentation, disrespect, and gross inferiority. And it is more fitting for an evolved society to make changes in their language.

Sure it exists, in Middle-Eastern countries, especially in islamic ones. Only there.

If patriarchy means rule by fathers then with all the fathers not sticking around to help raise their children we could use more patriarchy

Oh brother you must be real fun at parties.

Please provide evidence. Her claims were all refuted, so additional evidence is needed.to prove the patriarchy exists.

She's malicious, she get slack for being malicious. No need to show respect or care for someone who doesn't show it for anyone.

if a feminist can act superior with fake notions of language, why can't a reasonable person act superior with facts and evidence?

Why be classy to the woman writing such an ignorant comment?

I completely disagree. Men are considered as disposable that they are here to protect and to always do for women. Just look at the past boys were raised and taught they must always provide even die in wars to protect and they must work work work to make sure Woman has it all. And you know it’s true. Men had to work and work back then was actual manual work, working in coal mines and building railroads and buildings etc. Men made the money and most all went to her. “Happy wife happy life”. It’s like feminists ignore or just make sure to see things from one point of view. All you have to do is look around and you see the truth. Women can force men to be like a slave (woman gets pregnant and she has choices whereas a mans future will depend on what she decides to do, to have the baby or not and no where does a male have such power over another. If a man doesn’t want to be a father Feminists just say “well you shouldn’t have had sex” whereas you can’t tell that to a woman)!
