Women Against Feminism
Women Against Feminism, also known as ''#WomenAgainstFeminism'', is a Twitter hashtag, Tumblr blog, and social media campaign on Facebook, YouTube, and other internet media in which women post pictures of themselves, some in "selfie" style, holding up handmade placards stating reasons why they disapprove of modern feminism. Most of the posts begin with the statement, "I don't need feminism because", followed by their reason(s). On a larger scale, it is also a grassroots movement of women who disagree with feminism for various reasons.
==Origin and content==
The (Women Against Feminism ) campaign began on Tumblr in July 2013, presumably in response to the "Who Needs Feminism" campaign.〔Smith, Michelle, "(Actually, women, you do need feminism )", ''The Conversation'', 18 August 2014〕〔Wente, Margaret, "(Women against #WomenAgainstFeminism )", ''The Globe and Mail'', 9 August 2014〕 According to , the campaign gathered steam in July and August 2014, when several prominent columnists and bloggers brought media attention to it.〔Elderkin, Beth, "(Who are the 'Women Against Feminism'? )", ''The Daily Dot''〕
In an opinion piece for , Nina Burleigh wrote that she believes some posts on Tumblr were not submitted by women, but rather are sock puppets of men's rights activists, citing similar themes and content to that used on men's rights websites. Examples she cited include: "I don't need feminism because only the weak-minded buy into cults", and "because blaming men for your OWN insecurities and mistakes is WRONG & ABSURD." In an opinion piece for , Cathy Young reported an analysis of posts on the hashtag by blogger "AstrokidNJ", which determined that 46 percent were egalitarian, 19 percent commented on men's issues, 12 percent criticized feminist intolerance toward dissent, and 23 percent promoted traditionalist views such as support for distinct and traditional sex roles, chivalry, or full-time motherhood.〔Young, Cathy, "(Women Against Feminism: Some women want equality without anger )", ''Boston Globe'', 2 September 2014〕 In a piece for ''Time'', Cathy Young stated that some Women Against Feminism, while they are able to acknowledge feminism's struggle for women's rights, believe that "modern Western feminism has become a divisive and sometimes hateful force." Other examples of comments on the hashtag, reported by ''Time'', include: "because I like to shave my legs and wear a supportive bra"; "because this movement is less about equality, and more about dehumanizing men"; and "because Susan B. Anthony was pro-life & pro-family today's feminists are not".
