More generalisation, running together two very different groups of women. Prejudice is treating all (all right, "not all" but almost all) members of a group as if they share some disliked characteristic.

I wrote as nuanced a tweet as I could and I'm still being accused of prejudice. Wow. I put American in there because for the most part European feminists aren't virulently anti-FGM and pro-MGM. What two different groups of women am I mashing together?

I'll agree that millennial feminists are less likely to support circumcision. I'll agree that West Coast feminists are less likely to support circumcision. I'll grant that since a majority of Americans support circumcision, statistically that would apply to feminists as well.

However, it is blatant hypocrisy for Midwest or East Coast feminists to rattle on about how much they want boys and men to express themselves, and then utterly shame men for coming forward with their emotions. Obviously, I can't prove this statistically; I've just seen it happen
