Additionally, over the past three years, online searches for “equality” and “feminism” have dropped by 40% and 50% respectively.
LLYC analysed conversations on X across 12 countries in Latin America, Europe and the US, examining 8.5 million posts from both sides of the debate.
It found that anti-feminists resort to insults three times more often than feminists, and use derogatory language in half of their posts to attack those who they disagree with without offering alternative explanations. It also found that one in three anti-feminist posts is short, lacks arguments, and relies on stereotypes.
Another finding was the variance in the language used in different regions. In Argentina for example, 1 in 5 anti-feminist messages uses terms such as “whore” or “frigid” to discredit feminists, while in Spain and the US the attacks focus on appearance.
Obviously, constructive criticism should be preferred amongst those who are vocal against feminist ideology in general, but what kind of backlash do you expect towards movements that champion phrases such as "Kill all Men", and "Misandry isn't Real"?
