Default This Woman Describes Herself As An "Anti-Feminist", Is She Making Any Sense?

Up until recently when I heard the term Anti-Feminist, I've pictured crazy right wingers who think all women should be men's slaves, or single 40 year olds who rant about how women are evil because they can't get laid.

However a few days ago I found this series of videos on Youtube made by a Woman who claims to be an Anti-Feminist, which threw me for a bit of a curve. And the stuff she says seems to make sense to me.

Could you all watch this video and tell me whether she is actually making sense or am I missing something?

And please watch the whole video before you post.

Maybe later, but probably not. It's near 20 minutes, and quite frankly she bored me in 30 seconds.

Besides, if it makes so much sense, you should be able to put it into your own words.

If I'm going to be frank about it, I think it's kind of stupid of her to argue that feminism is somehow to blame for unequal treatment of males in such things as gender violence. But I suppose she's trying to persuade fairly stupid people by such a transparently clumsy argument. Smarter people would seem to me less likely to buy it. So, I give her a high grade for her marketing skills.

Idk.

I am not sayinf that feminist was not vital at some point or that it no longers has good contributions, but I do think it would be careless to say that it only has a good impact.

The way I see it a lot of feminist campaigns are sensationalists in a way that confuse a lot of people into thinking the sort of things she is debating against there.

I think those are very real subjects that even the inteligent people can overlook because "they are supposed to" and "gentlemanry" garbage.

Feminism =/= Matriarchy

That's all I have to say about it, and to back up your point.
