Jon if you& #39;d like to learn what the word "feminist" means, I& #39;d love to have that convo with you. The fact you are bragging about "triggering" us when you were in fact being problematic makes me think you don& #39;t understand what we are. I bet you& #39;d even get some more followers! https://twitter.com/jjbcattleco/status/1232668032566276096">https://twitter.com/jjbcattle...
My friend @KeithDeHaas said ‘The privileged group will view equality with a less privileged group as oppression - as if lifting you up to their level is the same as lowering them to yours.’ @jjbcattleco is that how u feel?
Now @jjbcattleco let’s start with the basics. Personally I consider myself an intersectional feminist. The feminist movement has been evolving. I believe feminism should support BIPOC. Here is a good starting point http://intersectionalfeminism.org"> http://intersectionalfeminism.org
Before we go further though, I think it’s important to share this. Often we we’re learning about a topic that makes us uncomfortable it’s easy to lash out, etc. here’s hoping we can keep this civil, learn something AND get Jon some new followers!
Now @jjbcattleco I know your a man, but I wrote this after what I experienced from some women in ag. I feel like it’s a good way to get you to see my point of view. Not I’m gonna work on this thread and get you some more resources over the next few days. http://thebeefjar.com/2019/03/22/be-better-agriculture-how-women-perpetuate-sexism/">https://thebeefjar.com/2019/03/2...
I’ve been thinking about @jjbcattleco use of the word ‘triggered’. As someone who is open about my mental health, and since ag twitter has decided to take it seriously, I think this is an important convo to have. ‘Triggering’ someone simply is not funny https://www.theodysseyonline.com/triggered-joke-funny">https://www.theodysseyonline.com/triggered...
Dear Jon @jjbcattleco "A movement of powerful women is seen as threatening. Reflecting that, the media creates negative stereotypes of these powerful women: Who would want to be a bra burner?" https://www.apa.org/gradpsych/2006/09/feminism">https://www.apa.org/gradpsych...
Dear Jon @jjbcattleco "Personally, I look forward to the day when feminism can cease to exist; the day when we no longer need to fight for gender equality because treating people equally becomes a natural instinct" https://vocal.media/viva/why-i-m-a-feminist-1">https://vocal.media/viva/why-...
Dear Jon @jjbcattleco today I’d like to introduce you to a different feminist (I know you think there is only one by your The Feminist comment, as flattering as that was it’s not true) @monaeltahawy is amazing. She’s loud, smart amazing. She might make you uncomfortable.
Dear Jon @jjbcattleco “It’s very likely that there are many people, particularly men, who don’t realize that they’re perpetuating a culture that dehumanizes and objectifies women.” https://everydayfeminism.com/2016/06/men-taught-to-objectify-women/">https://everydayfeminism.com/2016/06/m...
Dear Jon @jjbcattleco “Imagine a world where showing emotion, loving Adele or staying home with your kids wasn’t considered feminine, and therefore less than.” https://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/us_574f1d58e4b0c3752dcc3018">https://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/...
Dear Jon @jjbcattleco today I thought a meme would be appropriate. This is true, if I get ‘triggered’ I must have deserved it, right? I probably ‘had it coming’.
This is why we need #feminism
This is why we need #feminism
Dear Jon @jjbcattleco today I think this is a good share for today. Many of us are hypervigilant because the fear is real. I had a traumatic experience in college that will forever make me aware of my surroundings. Again why we need #feminism
Dear Jon @jjbcattleco This is also why I identify as a #feminist

Dear Jon @jjbcattleco today I’d like to introduce you to @manwhohasitall he does a good job of switching #gender roles in such a way that exposes how silly they are. He highlights the need for #feminism.
Dear Jon @jjbcattleco sometimes men don’t see the value of feminism unless it helps them. So here is why you need #feminist https://www.mic.com/articles/88277/23-ways-feminism-has-made-the-world-a-better-place-for-men">https://www.mic.com/articles/...
Dear Jon @jjbcattleco "Feminism, for my part, is far more so a love letter to women that they deserve better." https://medium.com/fearless-she-wrote/stop-using-feminism-to-describe-anything-that-makes-you-uncomfortable-511f8b54ed2d">https://medium.com/fearless-... #feminist #SupportWomen
Dear Jon @jjbcattleco this is a wonderful book, everyone should read it. It will make you very uncomfortable, but you will learn much about #patriarchy and #feminism https://www.publishersweekly.com/978-0-8070-1381-6">https://www.publishersweekly.com/978-0-807...
Dear Jon @jjbcattleco “ #Mentalhealth is a #feminist issue because women’s experiences have often been, and continue to be, pathologized... Women are more likely to be referred to as ‘crazy’ for example — both in daily conversation and in the media." https://www.talkspace.com/blog/mental-health-feminist-issue/">https://www.talkspace.com/blog/ment...
Dear Jon @jjbcattleco Men often use the word ‘triggered’ when women show emotion or react to a bad behavior, it’s common. But it’s clever, because when you says ‘triggered’ that comes with its own set of preconceived ideas (we’re ‘crazy’) https://www.bolde.com/why-do-men-call-women-crazy/">https://www.bolde.com/why-do-me... #MENtalHealth
Dear Jon @jjbcattleco this meme is so true. Women are challenged often. Especially if we are ‘outspoken’ or aren’t supporting the status quo. I mean for example look at me, I talk about #equality and you call me #TheFeminist
Dear Jon @jjbcattleco today this tweet from @heyyguido
When married men disparage #feminism this is often what I think about.

Dear Jon @jjbcattleco I support #feminism because I want to benefit all women. Standing up to men who use feminism as a pejorative has become important to me, as you see by this thread. I hope you are starting to learn more about why that is important.
