[(Anonymous)]

And making generalizations based on gender is not sexist at all.

[philstar22]

I very clearly didn't say all men, so not a generalization.

[(Anonymous)]

Men do X often.

Women do X less frequently.

How is that not a generalization?

[philstar22]

A generalization is when you say "group X always does Y" or "All group X does Y" without qualifying it. I qualified it. Not all men act that way, but most men do.

NAYRT

It's a generalization, it's just a qualified generalization (and a well-founded one).

Where AYRT is going wrong is saying that any generalization is wrong and prejudiced. This isn't the case.

[(Anonymous)]

any generalization is wrong and prejudiced

Where did I say that? I said that philstar was making a generalization based on gender. Which I thought was what feminism was against.

[philstar22]

Feminism is against oppression based on gender. Feminism is against saying gender stereotypes are inherent and that every woman or man has to fit them. Feminism isn't against saying there are trends and ways that on average many or most members of a particular gender act. Feminism, at least as far as I know, wouldn't say there aren't trends, it would look to the root of those trends and the problems with them. But feminism doesn't say there aren't certain things that are on average more true of one gender or another.

And all this time I thought it was about equal rights.

[philstar22]

It is. What do generalizations have to do with equal rights unless they are telling people that they have to act a certain way or that all men or women act a certain way?

[(Anonymous)]

generalization
Logic.
a proposition asserting something to be true either of all members of a certain class or of an indefinite part of that class.

Semantics aside, I'm a woman, and I am absolutely calling you out on reinforcing gender stereotypes when you make statements like the one above.
