Okay, so I just used the quotes I wrote, and added my immediate thoughts under them. Don't take this as something universally feminist, it's just my point of view, which I know that many share, but I can't speak for everyone. I realised when I was writing that I threw in a couple of Danish words which I couldn't immediately come up with a translation for. XD
"Manden er på mange måder ved at være et køn i opløsning."
Ever heard of patriarchy? Det er ikke synd for mænd, men det er heller ikke synd for kvinder, as you try to point out all the time. According to you, men are suffering because of feminism. First of all, they are not. Even if they were, it's nothing compared to everything women have had to go through since the beginning of civilisation. Women suffer under patriarchy, everyone will be liberated under feminism.
"Man skal være en meget rød og bitter feminist, før denne udvikling ikke gør indtryk på én."
Okay, so you are calling me "bitter" because I care about women's rights more than those few men that you think are worth "pitying"? I have every right to be bitter, since society still looks the way it does, but don't use the word "bitter" to demean me.
"Det ville da være relevant at se på, om der er en sammenhæng mellem væksten i den offentlige sektor, udviklingen i antallet offentligt ansatte kvinder (...) og så drengebørns stigende mistrivsel og trang til at komme væk fra institutionerne efter 9. klasse."
Really? Are you seriously going down that road? Come on, that comparison is just stupid. It's flawed, I mean, just because more women are working i det offentlige, and boys/men are less willing to get an education, that doesn't mean that it's women's fault that men are not educated. There might be a correlation, if statistics show that both statements are true, but that doesn't mean that there's causality.
"Under alle omstændigheder falder antallet af stærke, maskuline, slagkraftige mænd - som vi kvinder helst vil have dem - samtidig med at vi kvinder bliver mere og mere højtuddannede, selvstændige, får karriere og lever længere."
I know slagkraftig doesn't mean that, but it sounds like you're saying that women want violent men. Don't speak on behalf of all women, and don't assume every is straight.
"'Kødgryden' - altså den negative semantiske variant af, at kvinder stadig rummer et biologisk, moderligt omsorgsgen - var ikke et legitimt alternativ dengang."
I don't want to hear this kind of essentialist bullshit. Biology doesn't determine gender roles, society/norms/discourse do. "One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman." - Simone de Beauvoir (1949)
"[D]erved er kernefamilien også under pres. Familien har ellers op gennem Danmarks historie været en af di bærende institutionelle krafter, der giver sammenhængskraft i samfundet."
Who cares about the nuclear family? Is a family not a family if there isn't a mum and a dad and two kids? We don't need that to learn important values.
