I love that someone disagreeing with modern feminism needs a disclaimer in the description box. That should tell you everything you need to know without even watching the video.

She's nervous cuz she knows how women are gonna wanna rip her apart for spitting these FACTS. 😩 Stay strong and speak the truth! This video needs more views. 💫

[edgeofsanity]

Modern day feminism doesn't only set back women, but especially men
Modern feminism is quite radicalized into misandry

TED, remove this disclaimer. The entire POINT of a TED talk is to challenge currently held ideas and beliefs, has anyone who have watched this video see it as a threat to feminism?

please reply to this message if you think so.

Shame on you Tedx for needing a disclaimer for this video.

I find the disclaimer in the description distressing and objectionable.

[kakomamatemate]

In a world where unproven truths are flashed around by untrusted sources, we need more of her.

[flashgordon]

Now TED is posting a warning that elements of this talk may be objectionable or

Great speech. A lot of extreme feminism is about vengeance and enforcing a matriarchy. Equality means equality. Superiority and wanting to bring men down are not the core values of equality. It's not fair to seek vengeance on a whole gender, play oppression Olympics, and calling any man who disagree with this form of extremism an incel, and misogynist. There are countries in the world where patriarchy is very much alive, but women have it pretty darn good in much of the west.

That is what you call a real woman .. when she knew the truth what’s really going on with modern day feminism She had to put a stop to it and spilled a lot of beans in the process 🫶🏽

Very power full and thought provoking, thank you for reminding us of the “I am kind of in control and out of control at the same time” quote.

[kaushikboricha]

Man she is spitting facts 💯, need more like her bro

[jenniexx]

Thank you for this speech. The 4th wave feminism has a lot of conflicting views around it.

[itouchtheskyslowlifeitaly]

Thank you so much for sharing with us your thoughts on modern day feminism and talking deeply about this topic. I love watching and listening to you here on the top of the mountain in Italy, thanks to technology, YouTube and TEDx.

She said many good things but I would have liked her to say "I can no longer stand that feminism sow hatred in women towards all men because some of those men are our fathers, brothers, sons, husbands, teachers, workers, soldiers who They defend our country etc.

[sibusisiwendlangisa]

have not finished the video yet, but i love the objectivity of this talk so far and i am inspired, it is not what people want to hear really but it is necessary that we all have a much open mind to absorb the reality of what is happening around us.

[justinaadk]

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Thank you Dr van Heerden, it needed to be said.

[PricelessBinkey]

Equality mean equal oppertunity, not equal results. Equal results comes from not only hard work, but playing smart, improving yourself, taking on resposibility and accountability. Those last two things are yet to be seen by many.

[ExilixE]

Thank god for these women speaking up about their own community. God forbid a man point out these women's problems, they would get cancelled out of existence. Misogynist, sexist, ef u etc.

[mattmarko]

We’ll said, she’s the real example of what women before her worked to achieve, admirable!!!
