Re: Lesbian Separatists

(Anonymous) 2015-04-06 09:58 pm (UTC)(link)
sorry for the late reply. work was tough.

to answer your question the practical difference from what I have heard - and at this point I should point out that I haven't had the opportunity or the inclination to talk to MGTOW (for obvious reasons). I know lots of people judge us based just on what they hear about us, so I do acknowledge the slight possibility that this info may be incorrect - but the difference is largely in how we go about it.

We - at least people who share my approach I don't claim to speak for every lesbian separatist but my experience makes me believe I am a pretty typical moderate - take the view that dealing with men is too much trouble and quite often dangerous so screw that noise I'm keeping them out of my life.

MGtOW tend to take the approach that dealing with women is too much trouble and hurts their feelings / makes them uncomfortable / whatever, so screw that noise - which is their own prerogative not much judgement here - but then go on endless tirades to keep women in their life by making their entire lives about promoting how horrible women are. It's not a 'men are great' group, it's a 'women suck' group.

Yes, I think for the most part men have shown that they suck, but that is not the centre point for my whole life. This realisation was the point on which my life turned, where as MGtoW have made it the point on which their lives revolve, if that makes any sense?
