I never said that. Please don't put words in my mouth. That's not what feminism does.

Few female CEO's? There are plenty of female CEO'S. I think you have me mixed up with someone else. And no, I'm not lamenting about how few female coal miners there are ANY MORE than I lament about how few MALE coal miners there are. I have not comment on that plaque regarding Vietnam...

You DO realize that a woman can be both a homemaker AND a feminist, right?

And just WHO gets to decide these roles? Men? The women who are too cowardly to make decisions on their own and leave it up to the men to decide FOR them? No thank you. Good on you and your husband IF that's what you want. You opinion. No, it doesn't. If a woman's 'natural strength' is...

Yup! Just as slavery worked best for the slave-owners.

Why can't a woman do hard labor WITHOUT having husband? There are laborious jobs TODAY, and yet if a woman WANTS to do those jobs, she still faces discrimination. You really need to get off this whole mindset about feminists being "envious" or "jealous" of men. It's not about envy or...

Again, not true. You really need to do your homework...with your eyes OPENED.

What a load of bunk. Again, NOTHING to back up what you're claiming.

Not ALL men are 'strong and tough'. Not ALL men WANT to be 'strong and tough'. Plus, you're comparing apples to oranges. Patriarchy not only tells men they need to be 'strong and tough' but that women need to be 'weak and mild-mannered.' How the world really works is as I described above...

If that's ALL you're considering then you don't have an understanding of what gender bias is. It's not ONLY about being able to run for office, or owning an airline or a football team. Gender bias comes in different varieties, from a woman not getting paid as much as a man for doing the same...

It's not that they want it to be 100%, but that if a woman WANTS to pursue that that avenue, she should be able to do so WITHOUT obstacles such as gender bias. Case in point: If a man wants to strive to become the president of a university (for example) he won't be scrutinized for his...

How do you know that ANY female in those positions didn't get there based on their merits?

You're a broken record, Wrangler. Not really contributing anything to this thread, save to accuse feminism of being "evil" without anything to back you up.

And what taught men that it's o.k. to engage in casual hookups? Hint: It wasn't feminism. Totally agree! I agree with you here, too! But here's the point; both men and women DO get pressured into sleeping around, and it often happens while they're not even men and women yet. They're still...

In the United States only one QUARTER of university presidents are female. The themes of gender-based barriers include male organizational culture, gender stereotypes, work-life conflict, scrutiny, and leadership perceptions identified by women presidents during their interviews are aligned to...

Actually, international efforts to halt this practice have been going on since the 1970's. And even though the practice has been outlawed on paper in many countries, the practice itself still goes on...with government doing very little to uphold the laws.

I think feminism is a response to how men have treated women. The overall idea is to 'do unto others.' Have men treated women the way THEY would want women to treat them? No one likes to be told what to do, Wynona. Male or female. A man who has aspirations to be an artist wouldn't like it...

Oh, I get that! There are STILL forced marriages of girls as young as 10 overseas!! And FGM is practiced WIDELY. Still too much abuse against women, and feminism wants to eliminate that!

Riiiiiight. That's why I PROTESTED in the late 70's about men being FORCED to sign up for the draft at 18......because I have NO COMPASSION for the plight of men.....big FAT eyeroll.... I told you before...I'm about FAIRNESS. I no more want to see a man regulated to a 'dangerous' job, than I...

What's with your put downs? You would NEVER choose them? EVEN if a feminist was fighting for men's causes too? Be careful with your "always" and "never" attitudes, Wrangler.
