I find it amusing to read that people still regard feminism as a if it is singular entity. The truth is that feminism, as a body of work, is interdisciplinary. It draws on psychology, history, political theory etc. There are many types of feminists, too: liberal feminists, radical feminists, post-modern feminists, marxist feminists to name a few. Not only do these "branches" of feminism argue with one another, but also there is quite a bit of internal disagreement. Some of it is intelligent and well written. Like any other discipline, some of it is not intelligent and well written. To argue against "feminism," without specificity, is a bit like lumping fascism with conservatism. They may both be at the same end of the political spectrum (right of center), but there is a substantial theoretical difference between the two ideologies.

feminism got women the right to say no to sex and vote.today though feminists seem to have this weird illusion that there are no gender differences. there are!
with some exceptions women are weaker, more nurturing, better at verbal thinking, worst at visual thinking,more emotional and more in need of protection than men. this isnt brain washing but biology- hormones , body shape, and differences in brains and brain activity. i believe kids and a husband and a home should come before a job for a women. the problem today is boys arnt taught to be reall men chivalry and traditional values and all so they become boys with no self esteem or role models and make up for it by showing off. im a girl i want a guy to protect me and look after me. i want him to like my character but also to find me sexy. i want a job but more than that i want and need to start a family. all the girls who complain that guys see them as sex objects would be hurt if i guy told them" i just like your charcter and brains i wouldnt dream of having sex with you or finding you sexy".

with some exceptions women are . . . more nurturing, better at verbal thinking, worst at visual thinking,. . .
Clearly, you've only ever met women who don't venture out of domestic circles much. Once a person decides that she's going to do something besides raise a husband and kids (and I DO mean husband) she'll pick up other non-nurturing skills as quickly as though she were born to them. Bottom line: nurturing is a learned behavior, not a genetic predestination. I'm not trying to say that women have exactly the same brains as men, I'm just saying that we are not limited by biology when it comes to behavior. Otherwise we would all kill when we become enraged, or steal when we're hungry and don't care about the owner of the food. THIS IS NOT THE JUNGLE.
more emotional and more in need of protection than men.
Gosh, this just makes me want to puke. And again, it all has to do with what you teach girls. The only girls I know who are more emotional than the boys I know are the ones whose daddies never taught them to be strong and stand on their own. These women are total losers and I RESENT you implying that they can stand in for the entire sex.

all the girls who complain that guys see them as sex objects would be hurt if i guy told them" i just like your charcter and brains i wouldnt dream of having sex with you or finding you sexy.I'm a totally hot babe (5'10", 125lbs, 36' 28' 38, with a GREAT ass) who has never had a problem meeting men or dating them. I have dumped ALL but one man because it was clear the rest were more interested in my bod than my brain, which is kind of irritating when the brain in question routinely scores well within the top 10% on standardized tests. The most recent one I intend to keep forever (all 5'6" 150lbs-with-lovehandles of him  because he REALLY is attracted most to my brains and character. His sex drive is super low compared to mine, but MY GOD!, the conversations we have, the rapport, it's AMAZING - and a MORE THAN ADEQUATE substitution for constantly sizzling chemistry. So much for your stupid assumptions.

I wish you luck and hope you wont try to compensate for his low sex drive on the side. But human nature as it is gives my cynical and realistic expectation a time frame of a year or two till you get tired of him.
A freind once told me this it was in russian and it went like this: "Sometimes you f--- life and sometimes life f----
you"

We've been dating for 4 years now, 2 of which were long distance, and I've never cheated once. He has a lower sex drive than mine, but he's so smart that he's a phenom in the lovin' department (quick study, that is). Quality is far more important than quantity. And there's always masturbation . . .

Calm your pretty, little, self down honey. I merely asked you but you're obviously to dumb to understand English. Fascist? I'm not the one in favor of killing babies. Your hero Margaret Sanger was a true Nazi Fascist, so I'm not sure whether you used that term maliciously or not. Hmm...  |

Who's not calm? I called it as I saw it while poking fun at your sad attempt to insult me. If that's not calm, I don't know what is.
Fascist?
It's called hyperbole. Do you know what that is? Get over it.
I'm not the one in favor of killing babies.
I'm in favor of choice. Know the difference.
