Along this line lets look in on a typical College course in Women’s Studies 101.
The woman instructor asks the class to name the discoveries, inventions, etc. that have benefited womankind. Almost all hands went up. After one female student mentioned “headache” all the hands went down.
To be sure, there are the customary invocations of "would" and "will" that typify the ravings of an utopian fantasist, but there is also a rather adolescent faith that anyone other than the author herself would be happy in such a dystopian society. Certainly there is a studied disregard for the opinions of normal women who might find fault with the sons they have nurtured being relegated to emasculation and irrelevancy. We sons might raise our hands in a gentle objection as well.
Truly, this is sad, pathetic sexist tripe, and its author ought to be ashamed of herself. It is impossible to take seriously, and so we probably shouldn't.
Har,Har,Har..............
A one way ticket to Liberia is in order here..
Just take today’s hyper-sensitivity and intolerance of anything that might be deemed “offensive”, and multiply it about 40 times...
A women’s society would look exactly like network television, with the panelists of The View holding the office of co-President. :)
Very little difference here in Australia - Universities are almost like extensions of government!
You’re bad! But really, who would open jars and stuff?
It’s a period piece...
Remember the Duke lacrosse case? Something like that on a national scale.
There was a study I read about that I probably couldn't find again, but it was about female violence and video games. The study looked at how women played violent first person shooter video games. The stereotype of these games is that they are for boys, and part of the study was to have women and men play the games together, knowing who everyone is in the game. The result was that the girls played like stereotypical girls, not wanting to shoot people or be violent.
However, when players were completely anonymous, things were very different. Women used violence more often than male players, started shooting people earlier, and violence was the most common solution to any problem, where men whould sneak around, look for hidden things, etc to help themselves.
*ducking*
Ok, I just read the article. First conclusion I made is that this ‘person’ hates males... all males.
The second thing I concluded is that if a male had ‘anything’ to do with something that something was bad and needed to be destroyed. So she basically wants to get rid of ‘civilization’. Without civilization women just don’t survive very well on their own. Sorry about that, that’s just the way the human species roll.
There’s a lot more. but others here are pointing those things out. I will end this though by saying that if she gets her way and her ‘utopia’ comes to fruition then it won’t be around for very long; for lots and lots of reasons.
Of course, the boy would have been read the riot act about never hitting girls if he had done that or even hit back, but I’m sure all of the adults there thought a girl hitting a boy was funny.
I worked in similar and know exactly how you feel.
If the modern feminist movement was interested in fighting real female inequality in the world it would focus its efforts on genuine female oppression: child brides, sex slavery, female genital mutilation, public stonings for female rape victims, denying women the right to walk unaccompanied in public or to drive, etc.
But, no, instead it’s topless rallies against calling slutty women “sluts.” It’s declaring that women are just as strong as men while expecting men to continue doing all the heavy lifting and bearing all the risk. It’s impassioned cries for a woman’s natural born right to kill her unborn baby the minute she decides she’s too busy to raise it or no longer wishes to date the father. And it’s reasoning that any time a woman regrets having drunken sex then, obviously, she was raped and the man on top of whom she enthusiastically climbed must have his life destroyed.
The average feminist truly believes they are striving for equality but the modern feminist movement has nothing to do with equality; It’s a first world female supremacy movement. Oh, they can chant “equality” until the cows come home but at the end of the day for what are they actually striving? Look closely at their arguments - they always boil down to creating a utopia where women have no personal responsibility, experience no negative consequences for their choices, and where every first world male is a potential villain - even 5-year-old boys.
However, the modern feminist movement has one fatal weakness: modern technology.
Technology has narrowed the gap between the sexes but it could all vanish in an instant.
If it ever does men will return to being men and women will return to being women. Or they will both perish.
The minute the power goes out feminists are done. It’s over. They can’t compete in a world without modern conveniences.
Modern feminism can only exist as long as there is air conditioning.

That’s a very good observation.
I read once that a business management filled with women is a nightmare. Nothing really gets done on time because they’re all too busy trying to destroy one another. Meanwhile, men come to work every day, do their jobs and go home.
