The central premise of feminism is that women are victims of men. Doesn't that paint women as weaker than men? Isn't it a misogynistic...?

"The central premise of feminism is that women are victims of men. Doesn't that paint women as weaker than men? Isn't it a misogynistic...?"

It certainly is. Of course feminist play on all angels of an argument even though it paints them as deceptive. Then they call you a misogynist if you point that out too (lol!)

This has been a pet-peeve complaint of mine about feminism. Women have full equality, yet today's women, who have NEVER suffered any of the legal discrimination that feminist always harp on about demand to be privileged above men for "discrimination".

What feminists are really saying is that they don't wish to have to look an equal man in the eye and compete with him, ONLY with legal equality (equal Rights and Opportunities with the same emancipation). Feminists demand privileges first. And this is why they first play the oppressor card. It almost always guarantees privileges for women who come off as oppressed.

Feminists terribly disrespect women as an entire class this way.

Nope. It acknowledges the reality of the patriarchal system and seeks to empowered men to dismantle it.

Any other time you would likely be on some "the truth is misogynist lol" bullshit. So no one is falling for it. Women are physically weaker than men and no ones debating that. But women's disadvantages are institutional, financial and social and that has little to do with "strength"

That is not the central premise of feminism, and many academic feminists are extremely opposed to mass-victimization movements like #yesallwomen.
