That’s not true. Paternity leave is five days, vs. eight weeks of maternity leave. Why are you not upset about that? Because it’s the law of nature?
But hey, plenty of non-combat roles as you would say, and I think you underestimate the manpower that it takes to run a functioning family with small children.
If there was a law that for one day women had to take time off and sit in a room for no reason. It would be sexist.
Of course it would. What the law actually says is that women have the option of doing exactly that, once a month, and it counts as a day of sick leave (not an extra day btw). Does that upset you? I would say try getting a UTI and bleeding through your urethra once a month and then see if it still upsets you, but that’s just not practical advice (let alone medically sound), so I will refrain.
Yet every male has had to take up to 2 plus years of their life including waiting period to become conscripts. It would also impact males professional life not to mention be the only gender forced to be on the forefront of war.
Mm-hm. And who wrote that law? And where has it been heading in recent years? And who sent it in the direction it’s going in? And why? Honest questions, those last two.
Yet no feminists I’ve heard talking about male privilege and equality in Taiwan seems to want to tackle a very clear sexist law. You can’t cherry pick.
Yet no feminists I’ve heard talking about male privilege and equality in Taiwan seem to take an active role in oppressing men. You can’t blame them for laws they didn’t write.
If the fact that they “write what they know” so to speak is what upsets you (women’s rights protestors protesting about women’s rights – how absurd! Next thing you know there’ll be Taiwanese protesting about Taiwan-related issues and hypocritically neglecting what goes on in Europe and Africa!), go ahead and start a masculinist organization or a gender neutral organization. It may already exist. Have you looked?
One person’s enjoyable is another’s unenjoyable. You don’t think they’re trying to make things less enjoyable for themselves, do you?
Oh, the horror. Private sector should totally not be allowed to ask people for advice. Pass a law against it asap!
Movies and shows got to be PC now.
Mate, if you don’t know where to get non-PC movies and shows, you don’t know how to use the interwebs.
Feminists shows are shoved down your throats as good when we know it isn’t.
Lots of things are shoved down our throats as good, if we open our mouths wide enough. Soft drinks, trans fats, zombiephones… and lots and lots of “content”. Vote with your wallet. Nowadays that means vote with your attention span. But no cherry picking, eh?
Sports- taking away collegiate men’s sports like my university had to do.
I think you have a point there, and that’s something you can challenge… in the US. Whether Title IX issues in the US have anything to do with your ability to enjoy softball, basketball, muay thai or whatever else you actually do in Taiwan is another story.
Taking jobs away from grid girls in formula one
The horror! The horror! How dare the private sector act in its own interest! Legislate mandatory grid girls asap!
and going after mma and boxing.
What’s this now?
Women’s pro sports often take funding from their counter parts because they can’t sustain themselves.
Take funding from? What sort of “funding” do self-sustaining pro sports have, if they’re self-sustaining? And who decides to divert that money to women’s pro sports?
Even now video games
See above re using the interwebs and voting with your wallet.
The list goes on and on. I just want to enjoy everything and not take things so seriously.
Welcome to the leisure force!
I don’t want a politically correct feminists video game. It’s a game, it’s made up for entertainment.
You know what the most famous transgender character in the history of cinema – from the very un-PC 1970’s – would say to that?
