TS has already said this but when it’s set up as one team against another and framed as a battle then it’s doomed to failure as it becomes a war in which neither side backs down.
Feminism is divisive and doesn’t work in modern times where equality is supposed to be the thing.
Society is supposed to be trying to get away from division now.

Feminism simply means believing women are equal to men, nothing more, so why on earth is it divisive. It is not a dirty word.

There is a big difference between ‘equality being the thing’ and people actually practising what they preach.
