Does Feminism advocate being disrespectful to those older than you?

Question

Or is this just another sign of societal decay.

<please stay on topic and answer the question>

Thanks!

Answer 1

Nothing advocates being disrespectful to those older than you.  But here&#039;s the problem.  Define respect?  Is it doing exactly what your family elders tell you, regardless?  Doesn&#039;t sound like respect to me, it sounds like slavery.  There is no respect in slavery.  If respect means, &quot;I will listen to what you believe is good for me, and will heed your advice and guidance on matters in life&quot;, then that is ok.

Answer 2

nope. i&#039;m a feminist and you better believe i respect my parents.

Answer 3

No.  This is all about societal decay and how parents aren&#039;t teaching manners to their children now.

Answer 4

No.

Answer 5

No it definitely does not, I think it is more of the &quot;social decay&quot; that you are referring to , feminism has nothing to do with people losing their manners and politeness.

I think that stems from a society where thinking is optional and respect for others is fading away.

However morbid and tragic that may seem, at least do your bit and I&#039;ll do mine and we can set the example for those around us.

Answer 6

Societal decay.

Although feminism gets blamed for everything from inflation to global warming, so I can see why you might have a tendency to point to feminism for any and all societal ills.

Answer 7

Absolutely not. If anything, I would respect my elders because of their experience in life. This is not to say that all older people are right  all the time. An old fool is just a young fool that got older.

But, the thinkers and doers of previous generations paved the way to the advances in society that we enjoy today.

Feminism, as I understand it, promotes mutual respect between men and women. Bad manners are not a bye product of feminism. People had bad manners before the word feminism was in our collective memory.

Answer 8

I think...somethings wrong with your medulla oblongata.

Answer 9

No. Where did you get an idea like that?
