By repeating offenses, Paul purposefully strove to receive the seven-month jail sentence that started on October 20, 1917. She had previously been incarcerated on a number of occasions for insignificant periods, but Paul did not believe that made enough of a statement about the persecution of women in America.[11]
When sent to Occoquan, the women were given no special treatment and had to live in harsh conditions, with poor sanitation, infested food, and dreadful facilities.[9] In protest of the conditions in Occoquan, Paul began a hunger strike,[12] which led to her being moved to the prison’s psychiatric ward and force-fed raw eggs through a feeding tube. "Seems almost unthinkable now, doesn’t it?" Paul told an interviewer from American Heritage when asked about the forced feeding. "It was shocking that a government of men could look with such extreme contempt on a movement that was asking nothing except such a simple little thing as the right to vote."[13]
Alt
Alice Paul
On the night of November 14, 1917, at Occoquan, known as the Night of Terror, a group of returning protesters was beaten by guards to the point of unconsciousness. Some were choked and one was even stabbed between her eyes by her own banner; others received concussions, lacerations and broken ribs. None of the protesters received medical assistance after the event and they were thrown into concrete "punishment cells." [10] Despite the brutality of the intervention, Paul remained undaunted and on November 27 and 28, all the suffragists were released from prison.[9]
Paul's hunger strike, combined with the continuing demonstrations and attendant press coverage, kept pressure on the Wilson administration.[8] In January 1918, Wilson announced that women's suffrage was urgently needed as a "war measure," and strongly urged Congress to pass the legislation. The amendment passed the House in 1918 but the Senate was a different story. President Wilson even attended the Senate meeting and urged the senators to pass this amendment. The amendment still fell two votes short of passing. The next year, 1919, the amendment was one vote short of passing. In 1920 the Nineteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution was passed and secured the vote for women. Originally, the amendment wasn't going to pass, being short by one vote again, but the senator of Tennessee changed his vote when he received a telegram from his mother asking him to support women’s suffrage.[3]

Women did not have the legal obligation to go to war. But even putting that aside, no, it isn't simply about the legal obligations. In determining whether or not someone is oppressed, you need to look at their circumstances.

Two reasons

For one, extremist, radical and controversial views attract attention and can be exploited for a profit

A lot of "feminists" realized this and say stupid shit intentionally to make money off the it. As it's easier, cheaper, and more efficient to spread information than ever before with the arrival of the internet and social media, many of these individuals see opportunities that were not present before.

Secondly, with the arrival of the internet, hugbox echochamber communities can be established where individuals only see the same ideas and arguments over and over again. If desired, the individual can avoid opposing viewpoints altogether. Because of the nature of how social media works, people with such views can easily be blocked or ignored, further exacerbating the echochamber mentality.

Of course not. These male/female differences are observed in every culture we've ever recorded. From that alone we would have to assume there is a biological basis. And at t least a part of the biological basis has already been found. We know the effects of testosterone and we know that men produce several times more of it than women. The only reasonable conclusion is that male-female differences are primarily the work of biology. No feminist critique of male and female behavior gets respect from me if it is assumes we are blank slates and not dimorphic creatures.

The difference between a black man who was enslaved and one that simply lives in violent conditions is that the one who was enslaved was prevented from living a good life because another person actively stopped him, while a contemporary black men is not being limited by any particular person in power, but an unconscious system. Oppression requires an actor.

First off, that source isn't academic. Second, anthropology is good in theory but is prone to methodological issues and has a heavily feminist slant. You would do well to be skeptical of any claims you hear about "matriarchal societies." They usually don't hold up to scrutiny once more scientific analysis is done on them. Third, let's say that exceptions did exist, that wouldn't really matter and they don't undermine the general case. It might be possible that with the perfect conditions a society could be matriarchal, but that doesn't mean that humans are blank slates and there's no difference between men and women.

When you have sex with a woman, even in a relationship, she often resists a bit. It's simply a game played between men and women. It's not about rape or entitlement.

>>5980608
>>5980615
No, it's not. Entitlement is the belief that you're owed something. So for instance someone puts in a resume for a job. Now many people know that if you want to distinguish yourself it's often a good thing to call in occasionally. Most people probably do it just fine, yet there are some that probably call every single day. Are the latter people entitled? No, they aren't. They've just taken it too far and not understanding they're hurting their chances. It is an analogous scenario with women.

I'm not arguing anything. I stand somewhere in the middle on the feminism issue. I just think it's hilarious when either side (and it's mostly the feminists that do this) bases their arguments on their moral standpoints and their personal beliefs of how a human being is supposed to act as if their idea of the perfect human behavior is somehow objective and "correct" when in reality, every human being is unique and therefore every human being should be treated differently. Equality isn't a gender or race issue, it's a human issue. Not each human is the same and I believe we can all agree on that, so why do they all deserve to be treated equally? I think the idea that each human is equal is absurd, but I don't think the lack of equality coincides with gender or race at all.

Anthropology major detected. Anthropology is incredibly flawed. The basis of anthropology is fieldwork, where a researcher goes to a place, lives with the community for awhile and studies them, and then reports his/her findings. It's so god damn subjective and falsification is difficult because a researcher might spend months, years with this community. You basically have to take them at their word. The fact that anthropology has become so heavily feminist over the last few decades makes it even more difficult to trust.

that looks like a narrowing of criteria to me. first you wanted proof that civilizations have done it in the past, then you amended that to exclude small tribes (as if they aren't societies?), then you insisted that i give examples of civilizations of a particular size or influence. next you will ask that i provide evidence of matrilineal societies of a certain size and cultural influence from a certain continent with a certain racial makeup.

No, without any sort of primal postulates we couldn't even function.

look, the point is that it is not strange or unknown in history and in the present for societies or civilizations or whatever noun you want to use to be based around female authority rather than male. the point being that there is nothing "natural" about a patriarchic system, and there is nothing "natural" about male attitudes of entitlement towards sex. matriarchies, patriarchies, they're both artificial constructs.

What this boils down to is that you're a close minded retard that bases their arguments on feelings and personal ideology and the second someone disagrees you turn into the SJW equivalent of a /pol/tard.
