Welcome to the femosphere, the latest dark, toxic corner of the internet… for women
‘Femcel’ influencers urge their followers to give up on gender equality and use men for financial gain – in the name of feminism
Summary
The “femosphere,” a growing online space for women, mirrors the misogynistic “manosphere” with toxic ideologies, including anti-gender equality views and strategies to “conquer” men.
The term describes communities like Female Dating Strategy and “dark feminine” influencers who reject liberal feminism, advocating traditional gender roles as empowering.
“Femcel” influencers urge their followers to give up on gender equality and use men for financial gain – in the name of feminism.
Critics warn these spaces mix conservative and feminist ideas, creating “anti-feminist feminism” that appeals to those disillusioned with mainstream feminism.
While less linked to violence than the manosphere, researchers caution against its potential for radicalization and harm.
You're viewing a single thread.
In the femosphere, as in the manosphere, there’s an overarching belief that life is about survival of the fittest, that men will always hurt women and that will never change, so strategies are needed to conquer the opposite gender.
I'm not a massive fan of the guy they nailed to a tree 2000 years ago for saying maybe people should be nice to each other once in a while, but the violent reaction to that suggestion no longer surprises me.
To be fair, he also suggested if they worshipped other gods, they'd be punished in hell for it. That's why I'm not a massive fan. But I like the 'be nice to people' part.
Jesus or God did?
Two very different ideologies.
Jesus and God are part of a trinity, so that's not really an "or" situation, unless you're one of the minority of Nontrinitarian Christians. But I was thinking of John 3:18 in specific:
Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.
God really mellowed out after having a kid. Jesus even says he speaks for God. So, yeah, becomes an “or” situation. Just ask the Jews.
The rest, even if I knew enough theology it’s not worth debating with a random person on the internet.
Just ask the Jews what?
How much maintenance goes into our space lasers, obv.
We'll the Torah does not include the new testament, all the Jesus bits, I think that's probably what he's getting at.
And I don't think we need to pretend that the Bible has one consistent message all the way through anyway. There are dozens (or more) examples of pretty major contradictions in the bible. That clarifying question of "god or Jesus said that?" Is really not a crazy question.
Look we just need to move around small bits of green paper and everything will be fine.
And then the Vogons show up...
It must be Thursday. I could never get the hang of Thursdays.
Oh freddled gruntbuggly
Thy micturations are to me
As plurdled gabbleblotchits on a lurgid beeApologies for misspellings. That's from memory.
It's okay. The important thing is you counterpointed the realism of the underlying metaphor of whatever it was the poem was about.
I think you might have a future in poetry. That was deeply moving.
Really? I was tortured.
Shouldn't have forgotten your towel
That guy is a made up story. No more, no less.
Edit: oh my, so much salt. Just keep downvoting me if it makes you cope better with the facts. It's OK.
That's not really my point.
What an insufferable way to be. No one honestly cares either way
Well that certainly isn't true.
I'm referring to lemmings, most of whom wouldn't care. Did Jesus exist? I think he probably did but I honestly don't care because the impact would be identical either way. It will never be proven either way so dropping into threads just to redirect the conversation to atheism will always just be dumb and annoying
Baselessly saying "I think he did" is dumb and annoying and you definitely care. Ppl who say nobody cares...care more than anyone.
What an insufferable way to be.
Well, it's more just not the appropriate place and kind of missed the point entirely.
No one honestly cares either way
Unfortunately this is very much not the case and that's a big chunk of the problem. There's groups out there that really really care (one way or another) and are more than happy to murder you and anyone else who doesn't all while telling themselves what great people they are.
I'm sure you would've also been defending someone if they dropped into the thread just to remind us that Jesus is always watching us
No I wouldn't have, it still would have been entirely off topic (and off topic for like 99% of the content on here). Just because one guy is being a moron doesn't mean you have to act like a moron as well. I didn't downvote your last comment because you weren't entirely wrong, but this one definitely is. A simple "Not the point" to the original guy would have been a far more appropriate response.
People need to know that no one likes their shitty obnoxious atheism redirections. Be mad about it I guess.
And people need to know nobody likes their shitty obnoxious christian redirections. Be mad about it I guess.
Lol I'm a Christian now! Because you're so simple minded and in fifth grade that you think not only is atheism interesting to talk about, but also that anyone bored or annoyed by bringing it up is a fucking Christian! Lmao
Did Jesus exist? I think he probably did
So there's that, and you also seem really angry that athiests exist, plus this whole thing started because you got mad that someone said Jesus was a made up story. That certainly seems like something a Christian would do, although I suppose muslim is also a possibility. As far as I know they also believe in Jesus, they just also believe in a second guy as well.
While some guy named Jesus might have existed, and might even have tried to start a religion, it's rather trivially demonstrable that the overwhelming majority of acts attributed to him are at best gross exaggerations if not outright fabrications, so in that sense yes he's just a story. It still wasn't really relevant to the original topic though.
Lol til "cope" = "being bored by a boring and irrelevant topic"
