>if a man doesn’t happily accept his wife supplementing her income through selling on-demand pornography to strangers online then he’s portrayed as being anti feminist.
In my opinion, this is hyperbole. I think a less biased and more realistic version of this complaint is something like "if a man disapproves of women supplementing . . .", as opposed to his wife (and assuming the implied qualifier that his wife didn't already do things like this before marriage).
As always, I'm sure you can find someone out there who embodies your complaint, but it would not be representative of popular accusations of anti-feminism.
- roenxi 4y agoSpeaking as a man, there is an option on the table that I may be a woman when I die (seems unlikely, but it is there). I know people who've taken that option up, so it isn't even that unusual in my circles. This somewhat changes the nature of the debate. Particularly since now people who genuinely believe that men/women face some sort of entrenched political discrimination, theoretically, switch sides. It wouldn't surprise me if sooner or later there is a scandal of desperate students choosing to be women to gain access to scholarship money for example. The meaning of "feminism" can't possibly be the same as it was 50 years ago when facing that sort of cultural pressure.
