So now you're backtracking and disagreeing that it isn't because girl's brains develop faster, but because the education system is actually better for girls than boys? Oh, right, so why didn't you write that in the first place.

I suspect feminist messaging appeals to women because they are sick of the patriarchy, not because they are programmed by marketing agencies. The fuck are you on about.

Lol. Aren't you a good feminist. Throwing tired phrases around like "they are sick of the patriarchy", yawn. You're the sexist version of anti-vaxxers.

I think you’re right that the messaging of companies trying to appear feminist in their communications while nevertheless usually being run almost exclusively by men is a huge part of the source material that produces the bias here.

Lol, that isn't what I wrote - again, it's what your distorted view of the world understands. Of course, women work in such companies and also approve such messages to meet sales. Shock. But yawn, again, from your pov, it's the men's fault because that opinion justifies your hatred of men - it's them, not me.

That said, I think you’re right that the messaging of companies trying to appear feminist in their communications while nevertheless usually being run almost exclusively by men is a huge part of the source material that produces the bias here. I’m not sure we disagree much in substance, but I suspect we come from different starting points in how we see gender dynamics in society.

It's not men against women, it's people against billionaires.

It's not the fact that these people are men that I take issue with, it's that they are hypocrites capitalising feminist sentiments without making any actual effort towards real change.

Edit: Since I wrote my response the comment I responded to was changed into something even dumber. I'll let it speak for itself.
