Fanatical Feminism

[PoliticalChic]

PC...why are you always trying to set women against each other?

Who knows what problems these two women have with each other...to blame it on feminism is beyond stupid.

1. While the premise is absurd as it applies to the OP, or to me, your statement:
"why are you always trying to set women against each other..."
pretty well demonstrates that that is your aim.
Too bad you lack the gift of irony.

2. "Who knows what problems these two women have with each other...to blame it on feminism is beyond stupid..."

I'm glad that you reminded me that some members of the board need to be spoon fed, i.e. you.

You see, both Walkers are major lights in the movement, and demonstrate, in their personal battles, major rifts in contemprory women's-movement trends. Their differences mirror differences in feminist thinking.

3. In the larger context, such battles take place in many movements, religious, political, and probably every human intellectual endeavor, as thoughtful individuals often differ. Therefore, understanding the battle is consciousness-raising for many thinking people, i.e., not you.

4. I look forward to future bantering with you, but on matters of substance...not the catty little hit-and-run comments that you seem most comfortable with.
Sorry to end a sentence with a preposition.

no surprise to read hear that a few women on this board hate men.

And the woman's movement is just another thing that needs to die.

I have a question though. If you're so equal, why aren't women required to enroll with selective services at 18?

I'm sure a lot of woman hate a redneck narc like you. I do to, does that make me a femenist. you fucking knuckle dragging all I could get was a history degree blockhead.

It seems people are confused between women's liberation - a clear cut positive movement that netted enormous positive change not only for women but for society as a whole, and feminism that dissolved family structures, marginalized the role of motherhood, demonized the role of being a man's wife, outright stomps on the women who choose to be a homemaker...I could go on.

Women's lib - a crucial positive societal movement that continues today.
Feminism - a movement plagued by radicals and men haters.

I think this guy had it right from the first page: radical groups are radical. It's clear that the "right" option is not forcing any gender to squeeze into any role, but rather to allow for open choices free from unneeded preconceived societal norms. Dad CAN stay home with babies now. Does that mean he MUST so that woman can work? Well, no. It means genders can be equalized past biological need.

Unfortunately there are some groups that try to bend the trends in the far opposite direction hoping that the end result is somewhere in the middle.

Sarah Palin is the modern day culmination of the radical 60's women's lib/feminist movement.

Wife, mother, career business woman, beauty queen, political office holder, advocate for the disabled, and now a grandmother.

She is the ideal role model of the lib/fem super woman who has it all.

Yet, they hate her because she doesn't believe exactly like they do.

What a bunch of hypocrites

a. Feminism has been criticized as exhibiting a rigid intolerance which, unfortunately, has driven away women who choose motherhood over high-powered careers, women who are American patriots, many religious women, women who do not identify themselves primarily in terms of sexual preference, and women who oppose abortion, pornography and prostitution. Said outside-the-mainstream feminists hold abolitionist views about pornography, prostitution, trafficking, and sexual slavery; viewing males as partners rather than oppressors; in short, are conservative.

b. Support for these excluded but self-identified feminists has come from an unexpected precinct: author of ‘Third Wave Feminism,” Rebecca Walker.
Her mother is Alice Walker, Second Wave Feminist, and author of “The Color Purple.”

According to Alice, her mother’s absolutist presumptions about male oppression, and the burden of having children, alienated her, and produced the kind of atmosphere which can only be considered child abuse.

c. Read the article which includes…
“The truth is that I very nearly missed out on becoming a mother - thanks to being brought up by a rabid feminist who thought motherhood was about the worst thing that could happen to a woman.
You see, my mum taught me that children enslave women. I grew up believing that children are millstones around your neck, and the idea that motherhood can make you blissfully happy is a complete fairytale.

I was raised to believe that women need men like a fish needs a bicycle. But I strongly feel children need two parents…

But I honestly believe it's time to puncture the myth and to reveal what life was really like to grow up as a child of the feminist revolution….with my mother's knowledge, started having sex at 13. I guess it was a relief for my mother as it meant I was less demanding. And she felt that being sexually active was empowering for me because it meant I was in control of my body.

The ease with which people can get divorced these days doesn't take into account the toll on children. That's all part of the unfinished business of feminism….Feminism has betrayed an entire generation of women into childlessness. It is devastating.

I am my own woman and I have discovered what really matters - a happy family.”
How my mother's fanatical feminist views tore us apart, by the daughter of The Color Purple author | Mail Online

In all my travels
in all of the various paces I've worked
I don't believe I have ever met such a person as this angry strict feminist

I've worked for career women but not one of them was even remotely like this.

I'm sure even you agree, PC, that EVERY PERSON, regardless of sex or color or religious persuasion, should have the same opportunities and recieve the same rewards (for the same work)

"I was raised to believe that women need men like a fish needs a bicycle. But I strongly feel children need two parents…"

sometimes that just isn't possible.

one of the parents could die.

but barring that it can be just as bad for the children to grow up in an unhappy home.

It's a terrible thing for children to grow up with parents who argue and fight all the time because they don't love each other

I raised two daughters on my own....

both of whom went to college and have careers

both are married (they didn't get married until their mid-30s which I consider a personal victory as I believe marrying TOO YOUNG is generally a mistake)

they both have 1 child

so they did ok.....

as for women NEEDING men these days...

I would contend that things are vastly different today than they were 50 or 100 or 15o years ago.

there was certainly a time when a woman NEEDED a man
or children needed 2 parents

but these days that is no longer the case

a successful woman CAN have a child or two and raise it/them fine without a man around....

[Si modo]

Oh, I've not only met some biased (won't call them radical, though...it doesn't sit well with me as I view them as political hacks) feminists, I know some pretty well.

I find that they are way too biased and cannot grasp the value of the bigger picture - protection of rights and promotion of equal rights through fairness, no matter how painful being fair may be.

Their marginalizing others, men and women, because they do not practice their form of feminism is distasteful, at best. And, their refusing to call out blatant sexism, even abuse, because of some political agenda disgusts me, as selling out usually does.

In reality, she hates Americans that aren't real Americans. That includes you, Sunni.

Personally I just think she's stupid and shrill.

CircleJerk once again proves he has nothing of value to bring to ANY conversation.

You know that's not true. I don't hate women at all, in fact I love women.

I don't want to see any woman forced to do something they don't want to do, not out of fear of a man, and not out of sense of obligation for woman kind.

I don't believe any man should ever abuse a woman in anyway.

Joking aside, I don't think women are sex objects.

Outside of some obvious exception, I don't think there is anything a man can do that a woman can't also do.

I was prepared to vote for a woman for President of the United States.

Please tell me how that makes me a woman hating ****.

Two points of disagreement, my friend. First, there are quite a number of things your average man can do that your average woman sucks at. That's fair, because the reverse is also true. We're not interchangeable, and that's okay.

The second is that I most certainly AM a sex object, and don't you ever forget it! I'm just a lot more besides that.

Sure , that is why I said some obvious exceptions. Such as in MOST cases men are stronger than women, while women are more nurturing than men.

As for sex objects, I meant solely sex objects.

"Sure , that is why I said some obvious exceptions. Such as in MOST cases men are stronger than women, while women are more nurturing than men."


I agree with these statements.
and I think that any woman who wants to be a police officer or serve in a fighting capacity in the military should meet all the requirements (size, height, strength, fighting ability)

I agree, and would add firefighters to that list. These positions are not about "fairness" or job opportunities. They're about public safety first and foremost.

I'm pretty sure "they" hate her because she's a moron. Playing dress up and wielding the role of the positions you mentioned like a child does not afford her support.
