Despairing For Gender Atheism

Gender Atheism is a fairly new take on Radical Feminism. The author of an article devoted to it doesn't hold out much hope for it as a significant movement because, like Atheism, Gender Atheism will be misunderstood. And of course, the new definition of Atheism is misunderstood, but it is misunderstood by Atheists themselves, who think that the Other will be fooled by it.

Regardless of the problems of Atheism and its disinclinations toward truth, Gender Atheism, being Rad Fem, encounters problems with Atheists, right out of the chute. Atheism, being oriented toward macho male narcissists in the first place, tends heavily toward misogyny. And that is acknowledged up front by this author. So the Atheist Rad Fems will remain at odds with Atheists in general, it appears.

Good. Third wave feminism has largely been a disaster, we hardly need a fourth wave now.
