I’m in a situation where I’ve been on a few dates with a girl who is very cool and fun but she’s more of a feminist than the other girls I’ve dated in the past. Now I’m all for women’s rights and their independence as should all men, that is not debatable. but I feel like with “some” feminists arguments can occur very easily when just talking about general social life. I respect other people’s opinions as who am I to tell them what they should think and say but in the past I have experienced regular topics of conversations get more heated when talking to a feminist than other girls who aren’t as much. Now, she’s not a hardcore feminist as she does like it when a man Is chivalrous for example. She also gets easily offended when someone says a word like the R word for example. Now it’s not acceptable to call someone a R word if they’re are disabled but if you’re using it for a joke like you see in a comedy show or when referring to a friend when he or she does something stupid then I believe in those contexts it’s fine because you’re not directly aiming it at someone with mal intentions unlike bullies or just ar*eholes in general. Any guys who have dated someone who classifies themselves as a feminist, did you notice a big difference compared to other girls you’ve dated who aren’t so much a feminist? And also how did that work with your family who probably aren’t very “feminist” themselves? I just don’t want to be thinking about everything I’m going to say or might say because it might offend them in someway. submitted by /u/HealthyWall8790
