Why we should reject feminism
Something i have noticed is that there is a constant flow of feminists coming out as TERFs, often it begins with them making transphobic statements which then just keep getting worse.
Feminism require the rejection of objective reality in favor of nonsensical victim narrative. The victim narrative is required in order to push for anti-male and discriminatory policies (and policies that harm society as a whole).
Feminists has at least since the second wave of feminism been in opposition towards any meaningful gender norms or roles.
But many trans people value the gender roles gender critical feminists are so opposed, you cannot really bring the 2 ideologies together without significantly compromising both.
If you push for a policy that discriminate against men while allowing people to very easily self-identity as another sex than their birth-sex the harms of said policy will be lessened which is good for society but that's still in conflict with bigoted feminism since feminism demands harming when for the sake of equality even if it harms society as a whole.
The issue with gender identity politics is that it's basically meaningless since the common official definition pushed is "you are a women if you identity as such". It's something conservatives have used successfully to attack trans rights in general.

Having some basic norms based on gender is not a bad thing. We see gendered behaviour all across the animal kingdom and i don't see any good reason for humans to be different in that regard.
Things like gendered clothing and roles gives a lot of people an important sense of meaning in life. That guidance is very much needed for most people. Humo Sapiens is a social animal, we are not biologically evolved to be atomized individuals, we evolved in tribed where we took care of each.
Being masculine as a male should be the norm. We need masculine males to win wars and uphold order in society. Masculine men also tends to live better lives.
