Slate article shows how feminism fails women

You really want to see more women being killed and maimed at work and living unhappier lives as they engage in vocations like brick-laying and installing power lines underground during the peak of winter? I prefer women to have more comfortable lives than that.

Me too. Which is why I like seeing a lot of women in the high-income professions that were once closed to them. You know, doctor, lawyer, investment banker, etc.

When a single woman has her own career that provides more than enough money in her own bank accounts for her basic needs (home, food, clothing), then she gets to choose whether or not she wants to marry and/or have children at all. More financially-independent women are choosing not to marry these days, preferring the freedom of being single instead.

Which is great for women who want that kind of life. Not great or even good for women who don't want to "stay home to raise kids." And many women don't want to these days, preferring an enjoyable career and the benefits it provides them instead of what women used to have to settle for. Life isn't so enjoyable for women who don't have options.

That's easy. The guys who hate freedom and financial independence for women and want the ugly days of total control over women back, that's who.

Women who want to be serious and be a wife should know about love, honor, and obedience.

GAG. Guys who want "obedience" from a wife or girlfriend are guys that women should avoid dating and marrying.
 
OK. So we have a bunch of white guys in the country (I'm white and they've opened up to me for almost 60 years) who are constantly threatened by women and minorities because they just can't hold their own.

That's the only reason we see racism and sexism. A bunch of dudes just can't do it. They don't have the confidence or the where with all to compete against women and minorities. Most of the time they don't even realize that they are showing the rest of us their insecurities.

And it's not always just white dudes. It could be any guy who is threatened by women or others different from them.

I wanna thank my parents one more time for instilling confidence in me. Otherwise I would be one of them.

Uh, NO, it doesn't. Ask any woman who has been through a horrible pregnancy and birth, even with a wanted pregnancy. I'm sure they will tell you it didn't feel good at all. And if you're a guy, you know you're safe from ever having to go through a pregnancy and birth personally.

As for me, I never wanted children, and I'm just glad I never got pregnant, so I never had to suffer the experiences of pregnancy and birth.
 
Blacks and women equal to men??

That demolishes a man's God given right to being superior in our social structure and can't be tolerated.



Tons of men just can't compete with or even date confident and successful women (since they feel inferior). We need meninism for these weak and insecure guys.

Tons of men would form a line around the block for a free full body massage; why can't women be that equal and stop complaining about only getting used.

I was in labor for like 26 hours. It didn't feel good to me till I got the epidural.

Again, NO, pregnancy and birth doesn't always feel good. To say "it always feels good" is the first lie you're trying to sell women. Problem for you; women aren't buying it.

Oh, and it's not a "biological need to reproduce" for all women either. That's lie #2 in my book. There are many women, myself included, who never want children, and will make sure they never have any. The term for that is "childfree."
