Conservative women have been fighting feminism, fighting abortion, and fighting for traditional values for years and making real progress only to have Right wing men turn on us in 2023, bitterly blaming *all* women for what's wrong in society. It's such an incredible betrayal.

“Conservative women have been fighting feminism, fighting abortion, and fighting for traditional values”
Isn’t it a traditional value for women to shut up and let the menfolk make decisions?
SHOULD they be involved in politics? That’s a feminist idea, that women have opinions and others should listen to them!
"only to have Right wing men turn on us in 2023, bitterly blaming *all* women for what's wrong in society.”
Um, Rightwing men have been limiting women’s rights for centuries because they blame Eve for us not being in Paradise.
They’re not really thinking machines, you know.
"It's such an incredible betrayal.”
What? You were expecting to be appreciated? By the misogynists you’re trying to help?
Big surprise…
Right wing men turn on us in 2023, bitterly blaming *all* women for what's wrong in society.
…seriously ??? No, they have ALWAYS been saying this. It just - somehow - took you until this year to notice. Which really goes to show just how stupid and willfully ignorant and full of false consciousness you are, even beyond what is already inherent in being an antifeminist woman.
Oh, really? Just in 2023?
Y’all have been making excuses for men betraying women for pretty much the entire time women have been considered property.
Osé. Definite Goetia Goon. Can cause delusions of status (Weyer’s main examples were making someone think himself a king or pope).
Manifests as a leopard.
Make sure you never dealt with him nor his legionaries, won’t you?
Ignatius J. Reilly oft spoke of a goddess : although not speaking of Myrna Minkoff in the kindest terms, he respected Fortuna. He would probably speak of another:
‘Oh, Hubris: what a cruel and savage mistress thou art! ’
Abby Libby: “But you guys PROMISED us conservative women that every woman who cooperated with you would be promoted to 4 /5 of a person!”
A right wing man: “We’ve never said such a thing! Your likes just ASSUMED that’s what would happen! In reality, you go under the bus after we have decided you have gone from Useful Idiot to Useful Idiot!!”
Wingnut women are such dumb-dumbs. WHAT DID THEY EXPECT?!
I’d imagine these Far-Right bimbos (This gal, the late Phyllis Schlafy [Rest in Pee], Lauren Southern, etc.) had some romanticized vision of “old-fashioned chivalry” and “benevolent sexism” mixed with 1950s sitcoms. All the patriarchy but none of the abuse.
Ironically, these she-bozos will happily take advantage of the opportunity feminism gave them, becoming outspoken pundits, lawyers, judges, state governors, Supreme Court justices and other positions of great authority.
It doesn’t work that way, ladies! I say this as a fellow lady.
The thing is, there’s nothing stopping these women from PERSONALLY adhering to traditional gender roles or looking for a “traditional” guy. Their anti-Feminist efforts are meaningless and unneeded. No one is forcing these people to not be “traditional”!

I think it’s a combination of that and “if I just serve these men hard enough and am a perfect enough woman, they’ll never treat me like those bad who get raped and harassed and beaten up and cheated on and taken advantage of, etc.” And then when those things still happen, they blame other women.
@SpukiKitty02 , @Yutolia :
I actually have a very strong suspicion that women who actively promote antifeminism (do note that I am not saying this about conservative women as a whole, nor am I intending to victim blame victims of domestic abuse) are likely to be less victims of internalised misogyny and more ruthlessly manipulative matriarchs who have their husbands firmly under their control - or at least they think they do - as the Grey Eminence to his brutish despot (also applying a Bad Cop/Good Cop dynamic towards their children in the process) and using toxic femininity to bully the other women in their lives.
Note that, from this perspective, it actually makes perfect sense to oppose Feminism, for it is the greatest threat to their petty tyranny. And indeed, eveb losing the right to vote… their husbands do what they tell them to. No, it is all those stupid other women who actually respect their partners’ opinion, or even worse, are single (or lesbian), who will get screwed over. Doubtlessly to the tradwives’ wicked hearts’ delight.
Confused?
