Hi everyone I hope you're all well. So today I want to do something a little
bit fun. Now as I am pretty sure most of you who watch this channel are fully
aware by now I absolutely do not call myself a feminist. Now that isn't because
I don't believe in equal rights between men and women which is what some
feminists accuse me of. It means that I do not agree with the behavior and the
recently surfaced beliefs of the modern feminist movement. Now I used to call
myself a feminist but I quit using the label when I realized of what I believed
about feminism did not match the words and actions of current day feminism. Like
many other women I find modern feminism to be petty man hating and grasping at
straws all within the framework of telling ordinary hard-working women how
terrible they should think their lives are and how oppressed they should feel
by a weird malevolent invisible force called the patriarchy. Modern third and
fourth wave feminism is based on factual inaccuracies that amount to outright
lies in some cases -- the most prevalent being of course the gender pay gap.
*Shoe0nhead* - The wage gap is simply the average earnings of men and women working full-time it
does not count for different job positions, hours worked, or different
jobs. It has nothing to do with the same job. It has nothing to do with
discrimination. - Nevertheless modern feminism resoundingly prevails in
popular culture and digital media notably BuzzFeed. Now BuzzFeed is
infamous for its quizzes and listicles which are great until they start delving
into news and political ideology which is possibly why so many BuzzFeed
journalists got fired the other week. Anyway on the subject of feminism
BuzzFeed is a wealth of content putting forward such pieces as "ten romantic
comedies from the 2000s ranked from least to most feminists", "how sexist are
you actually", "are you a feminist or a meninist" and "17 types of male feminists
that need to be stopped". Actually that last one I agree with because well you
know what they say about male feminists.
And let's not forget this infamous video.
- Manspreading is when a man spreads his physical body to take up as much space
as humanly possible. The people around you are relegated to a very small
portion. I kind of secretly hope to annoy some men. - Anyway the other day I stumbled
across a BuzzFeed quiz entitled "Are You A Bad Feminist" which included such
qualifiers as you quite like Kate Middleton you're on a diet right now and
you have so many pink clothes you could do an entirely pink load of laundry. So
in an effort to procrastinate whatever real work I was doing at the time
I of course decided to take the quiz just to see if at the very least I
qualified as a bad feminist if not a real feminist here are my results. Now I
think that particular quiz was written at least partially ironically well at
least I hope it was so out of morbid curiosity I have found another
reasonably famous quiz called "How Much Of A Feminist Are You?" and so like any
commentator who makes a point of not getting emotionally attached to their
beliefs and opinions which is something feminists routinely fail at I have
decided to test myself. Because you know I could be wrong maybe I could, at least
according to BuzzFeed, I've been a feminist this whole time and I've simply
been brainwashed by the evil white men that make up the ranks of the patriarchy.
I mean after all that's what feminists have been telling me this whole time so
maybe they're right. Anyway without further ado let's do this quiz and also
if you like this video then let me know by hitting that like button because if I
get to 3,000 likes or more than I will make more of this kind of content. Okay
here we go. I would be willing to give up some of my
salary if I had to so that equal pay in my workplace could be a reality. Hell no
not if the other people who are getting paid less than me weren't working as
hard and even if they were well sorry that's their fault for not negotiating a
higher salary. No not checking that box next
question. I believe that men and women should be equal. Well duh like you see
this is this is the type of stuff they try to trick you with that is a trick
question because any decent person actually believes that men and women are
equal you know that's no longer a qualifier for what feminism is but they
pretend it is but then their actions speak louder than their words. So while I
am of course going to check that box it's not for the reasons that they think
I'm checking it. Back to the quiz. I can define intersectional feminism. Yes I can
and as anyone who has watched my videos before knows I identify it as a feminist
oppression Olympics where participants compete to see how many victim points
they can get to be victim champion of the universe. That's not the technical
definition but it is much more accurate than any kind of definition that
feminists will stick on to it. I have taken a women's and or gender studies
class. I sort of think I have I took a class like literally ten or more
years ago in my first year of university called "the philosophy of gender" and it
was a philosophy subject it wasn't part of gender studies or any of those
courses so I'm wondering if that counts because I remember it being basically
feminism 101 only this was at least ten years ago so the professor like she had
hairy armpits and all that but she wasn't a complete feminazi and we had a
couple of guys in the class who weren't disgusting male feminists. So yes I guess
I have, I can tick that box. Women should be allowed to apply for a job if they
fulfill 60% of the job requirements. Ok I think I know what they're getting at
here I think what they're saying is that the standard should be lowered for women
if they're applying for the same job as men because they're women to give them a
kind of leg up as a sort of affirmative action thing which i think is incredibly
insulting how dare you insist that women should be able to apply when they only
fulfill 60% of the criteria instead of 80, 90 or 100 which would be the
qualifiers for men so no I am NOT hitting that button and that is the
reason that so many people hate feminism nowadays because of attitudes
like that. I think we should change women's bathroom symbols to not include
traditionally feminine clothing skirts dresses etc. No I like skirts and dresses
next. I believe Jennifer Lawrence should earn as much as her male co-stars. Not if
she has a smaller role, isn't as famous and doesn't bring in as much box office
as them. Next. This is so petty like these these
are the things that feminists, modern feminists think are important like
vitally world life saving issues and the new they wonder why women are abandoning
them honestly. I believe that women who possess certain types of privilege are
responsible for advocating for women who don't have their level of privilege.
Define privilege. If I had a daughter I would encourage her to be anything she
wanted to be. Well duh like obviously I would I would do the same if I had a son
I don't know why feminists think they have a monopoly on common sense things
like this. I think a lot of these questions are like virtue signaling or
declarations or this is what I believe is a feminist when actually it's like no
that's just how to be a good parent. I believe it's important to complement a
woman's intelligence over her looks. Well not if she's dumb. I believe that a woman
has the right to choose what happens to her body. Uh-huh
now now see this is another trick question this is the pro-choice vs.
pro-life thing they're trying to work out whether or not you believe in
abortion so I am NOT going to check that box not because I don't believe that
women should be able to do whatever they want with their bodies but because I
know what it implies which is that you're pro-abortion which I am NOT and
I've made a couple of videos on this. I believe that women should be able to
dress however they want without it dictating how they are treated by
society. Yes duh again that's just common sense being a nice person. I think police
brutality and its correlation with race is a feminist issue. I don't know how
that's a feminist issue that's to do with race. I think companies should offer more
child friendly time and programs to women who are having children. I don't
think that's a bad idea I think you know feminists go on about the gender pay gap
and getting women into working in high offices a lot of the reason they don't
is because they want to go off and have kids and so you get these very, very, very
highly qualified women in their 20s who are really, really
good at the jobs they hit the age of 30 their high-flying in these industries
and all of a sudden the biological clock ticks in and they go holy crap I have a
small window of time here to get this done and so they make the choice not
because society tells them to but because they want to, most of the time, to
leave all of that and start a family which is at the detriment of companies because
they leave you they lose really good employees. So if companies wanted to
initiate that I would not be against it because it would benefit both women and
men so yes I will tick that box. I believe that a woman should be offered
the same opportunities for promotion as her male co-workers. Yes duh I don't I
don't know why feminists keep claiming a monopoly on common sense and nice person
issues. I believe that in a relationship the domestic duties should be shared.
Well sure they would but depending on the setup I mean if one partner works
more than the other one then obviously the household chores should primarily
fall on the other one because that's what you call even division of labor. One
is the primary breadwinner the other may be wins some bread but is the primary
caretaker of the house so that's up to the couple. So again that's -- I'm ticking
that box but not for the reasons that the person who constructed this quiz
thinks. I would be equally excited to have a son or daughter. Well yes this
isn't China. I think women have a responsibility to help and encourage
other women to pursue their goals. I guess it's nice to but I don't know why
you'd have a responsibility to do that I mean it's that idea of the kind of the
sisterhood like women have to stick together well my experience of the
feminist sisterhood has been almost universally bad because they only like
women who agree with them so I'm not gonna tick that box. I believe that women
have no responsibility to make a conscious effort to always be friendly
and polite. Yes I believe that but I don't know who is telling women that
they always have to make a conscious effort to be friendly and polite.
It's very socially acceptable in society nowadays for women to be emotional and
bitchy. - Okay so the quiz is done let's see my
results. "You checked off 29 out of 50 on this list! You're super in tune with
what's going on especially when it comes to feminist
issues. Keep doing you and stay woke." What. I don't know how taking only 29 out of
50 on the list makes me super woke and super duper in tune with what's going on
in feminist land but according to this quiz it does even though a lot of the
questions were just basic common sense, being a nice person thing. Doesn't that
prove how vain feminists are in terms of their morality they think that they
have a monopoly on things that just make you a nice person it's really very weird.
So yeah I don't think I'm going to agree with BuzzFeed's analysis of me that I am
a feminist or perhaps I should who knows. No look I think it's a very interesting
quiz and is very very reflective of really just how feminists view
themselves as sort of the moral arbiter the world or at least this little
feminist does and I know a lot of women who think exactly like her. So thank you
