Can I use this as an example the next time someone asks me why I am anti-feminist? I know non-white, non-christian women and men who are turned away from feminism because of this attitude and my gut reaction was "Why the hell didn't anyone take her out the back and give her a fucking slapping?!?!?!

ngggg...I'd rather you didn't, just because femconne is supposed to be a welcoming pace blah-de-blah and I would hate for people to feel like things they say are going to be used as foder against them etc. Unless you removed identifying details more (as I should have done I guess). I feel kind of bad for mentioning it here but it was such a good example...And people definitely didn't stand for it, I'm not saying everyone was super enlightened about race but on the whole people wouldn't let anything really egregious pass without comment (thus a step up from the unisfa room :/)

I'm going to use veganism as a belief system here, as like atheism it is based on rationality and can actually be backed up with science because my person theistic beliefs don't follow any particular doctrine

That was really interesting, thankyou.
