This House, as the feminist movement, regrets the rise of the pink-pill ideology.
Pink-pill ideology is the gender-flipped counterpart to the manosphere’s red-pill philosophy: it claims that liberal feminism has failed women, that men are the “problem sex,” and that women should respond with individual strategic behaviour—treating dating as a game, prioritising high-value providers, avoiding casual sex, and maintaining emotional or financial distance—rather than collective political action.

This House believes that Trinity Syndrome does more harm than good to the portrayal of women
INFOSLIDE B: Trinity Syndrome (named after the character Trinity in The Matrix) describes the pattern in which a female character is introduced as highly competent, independent, and impressive, only to be sidelined, reduced to a love interest, or require rescuing by the male protagonist later in the story. (e.g., Tigress from Kung Fu Panda, Athena from Percy Jackson, Astrid from How to Train Your Dragon)

Social Justice Motion 1
THBT society should abandon the expectation that men must always initiate romantic relationships
Courtship refers to the social practices through which individuals express romantic interest and establish potential relationships. In many cultures, traditional courtship expectations assign men the role of initiating romantic interactions, proposing dates, and expressing interest first. Women have historically been expected to take a more receptive role. These practices vary across cultures and generations, particularly as dating applications and changing social attitudes influence romantic interactions.

THR the traditional expectation that men must be protectors and providers
In many societies, masculinity has historically been associated with physical strength, financial responsibility, emotional restraint, and leadership within the household. Men have traditionally been expected to provide financial support, protect family members, and assume positions of authority. These expectations are reflected in cultural practices, family arrangements, popular media, and social interactions. Contemporary societies have experienced changes in employment patterns, household responsibilities, and understandings of masculinity.

-
THBT the off-label expansion of GLP-1 treatments to children under 12 will do more harm than good
GLP-1 receptor agonists (such as semaglutide and liraglutide) are injectable medications used to manage blood sugar and chronic obesity. While regulatory agencies internationally have approved these drugs primarily for adults and adolescents aged 12 and older, pediatricians are increasingly prescribing them off-label to children aged 6 to 11 facing severe metabolic complications. Although early clinical trials show significant weight-loss efficacy, long-term developmental impacts remain under-studied, with research centers in countries like Germany and Austria only recently initiating pediatric long-term studies.
-
THO the expectation of "perfect activism" on privileged individuals (e.g. artists, influencers, etc.)
