(36,221 posts)for the other side. I'm not seeing it. Going back decades to make this point seems counterproductive to today's feminism. The arguments have changed, society has changed. I'm not seeing too much regulation on it anyhow. Seems to be a booming business. Seems as though most feminists who believe it is harmful to women work for societal change, not political. Maybe I'm wrong and there are feminists out there writing these laws and working to get them enacted.
So, why use all these same old tired tactics to divide. I understand their is a difference of opinion on how many women personally feel about this. And the issue is not just censoring people, there are other concerns.
And yes, there are laws made for the protection of people. Many are not considered a free speech issue or censorship issue.
Not saying that I agree or don't agree, I'm sort of split about it personally, so don't think I could be all that one sided about it as you accuse me of making it personal.
And I agree with your last paragraph, I thought I've made it clear. I wish the divisions would stop especially amongst women. 3rd wavers and 2nd wavers do this enough to eachother, which was my point, and I think it's unnecessary and a two way street of censorship.
