Covertly breaking the rules of your relationship makes you a dishonest & disloyal partner. That is a bad thing to be.

It says nothing about your commitment to gender equality. Unless you think its OK for one sex to do that but not the other.

I think the issue has more to do w/using his feminist identity to exploit women. Get them to lower their guard. Did he do this? Don't know.

I won't hurt you or manipulate you for sex. I'm one of the good guys. I'm a feminist. You can trust me.

Correct but it's perfect example of hypocrisy & continues the trend of the most vocal holier than thou male feminists being secret scumbags.
-
Did he preach a lot about the importance of fidelity? I've not been paying attention.
-
Preached respecting women & called out men for being sexist womanizers etc while taking advantage of young fans/actresses for 15 years.
-
I think you can respect women and have sex with a lot of them at the same time.
-
So do i. But while married & not telling wife? With younger women who you may have some power over? While preaching you're holier than thou?
-
The cheating is the problem, yes. That's what I'm saying. Dishonesty. If he abused his position, that would also be a problem.

Such a bad take, Helen. Joss Whedon, like other male feminists, pretends to be a valiant respecter of women. Cheating is opposite of respect
-
It would be the same if a woman promulgated a reputation as a valiant respecter of men, but was a prolific cheater. It's hypocrisy, Helen.
-
I don't think it is, necessarily. Cheating may be caused by disrespect of one man/woman not the whole sex.
-
If one's entire persona is based on respecting women, yet one disrespects the single most important woman in one's life, that's hypocrisy.
-
But you do see the difference between respecting a sex as equals and respecting every member of that sex?
-
I certainly understand the intellectual maneuver you're making, but I don't agree with your conclusion.
-
My conclusion on this is that if he bought into this conception of feminism, he can be judged by it. I don't personally tho.
-
I understand. I think we agree on a large portion of the matter, at the very least. Have a good day!
