      Women are incapable of committing rape because...Postmodernism, or something. People got these *crazy* ideas that anyone can commit or be a victim of sexual violence. And we need to nip that horrible idea right in the bud! Makes sense.pic.twitter.com/YcWMy1W5sG

      "women are not sexually violating men at large". Erm, the statistics kinda disagree with them on this one.

      But those statistics try to separate the crime of rape from gendered prejudices so it's all postmodernism. Peterson would be so very disappointed in you right now. Tsk tsk.

      Radfems also oppose postmodernism particularly because it makes categories of men and women into social constructs. He is trying to imply that when women commit sexual crimes, they are trans women doing so because they are really men (according to radfems) & display male violence

          That had not occurred to me, but I suppose it would be an implied conclusion...

          Isn't it more complex than that? Didn't radfems consider that gender stereotypes & roles were socially constructed (ie Beauvoir's argument) by the patriarchy (as such, detrimentally to women & to benefit men)? Their issue seems 2 b that it went one step further no?

          Well, they already believe that categories of men and woman are socially constructed. What the issue seems to be is that they don't want to share victimhood, ie their shot went farther away than what they expected...

          Womanhood is defined by society to br be the opposite of men. The postmodernist position logically follows that premise, they just lacked the foresight to see the outcome

          Radfems have never been postmodernists. They are materialists.

          Well, I'm wary to give them the credit of caring fo consistency. As I said, Beauvoir's argument was about the social construction of gender. It seems to me the argument was to serve as a bludgeon, not to accurately describe the dynamics involved

          I don't know what you mean. Radfems do consistently believe gender is a cultural construct but biological sex is real. That's what the whole war between the terfs and the trans activists is about.

          They don't believe a man can take the gender roles, stereotypes and norms of a woman, how does this follow from Beauvoir's argument?

          What happens when the women who commit sexual crimes are not trans women? PS I’m glad I’m going rolling with @TerranceTownie after I finish my porridge and second coffee - The Twitters is too weird (yes, even for me) today.
