  • I think it does ring true. I think you can also say that, in a way, feminism successes do come from patriarchy, that is to say-

    It is built upon patriarchy, through the analysis, critique and solutions offered by feminists to it.

    What you are critiquing is the hypocrisy and personal individual failings of feminists, which is valid, but is another problem entirely I feel.

    Perhaps you are saying these hypocrises and personal individual failings affect alot more feminists than feminists themselves would like to admit? Or perhaps that these hypocrises and personal individual failings have poisoned feminism and it’s touted ideals? That feminists who fail in these ways affect the ideology of feminism and that THIS feminism, the “feminism of hypocrites” is what now pervades majority feminist thought?








  • This is not exactly the case. “It can be used for combat” does not necessarily mean “it’s the best/ideal/ready for combat”. I would stress readily that if you are in the west, Judo and or Brazilian Jiu Jitsu are good for grappling arts. For striking arts Muay Thai is great! Some alternatives are sanda or dutch kickboxing. Though I’m not too sure on availability of Sanda schools in the west. If you really want to go the Chinese martial arts route, Choy Li Fut is a good style, and has supposedly gone toe to toe with Muay Thai on a few occasions.
