Marxist Feminism’s Ruined Lives
Frontpagemag.com ^ | 9-2-2014 | Mallory Millett
...And so began my period as an unwitting witness to history. I stayed with Kate and her lovable Japanese husband, Fumio, in a dilapidated loft on The Bowery as she finished her first book, a PhD thesis for Columbia University, “Sexual Politics.”
It was 1969. Kate invited me to join her for a gathering at the home of her friend, Lila Karp. They called the assemblage a “consciousness-raising-group,” a typical communist exercise, something practiced in Maoist China. We gathered at a large table as the chairperson opened the meeting with a back-and-forth recitation, like a Litany, a type of prayer done in Catholic Church. But now it was Marxism, the Church of the Left, mimicking religious practice:
“Why are we here today?” she asked.
“To make revolution,” they answered.
“What kind of revolution?” she replied.
“The Cultural Revolution,” they chanted.
“And how do we make Cultural Revolution?” she demanded.
“By destroying the American family!” they answered.
“How do we destroy the family?” she came back.
“By destroying the American Patriarch,” they cried exuberantly.
“And how do we destroy the American Patriarch?” she replied.
“By taking away his power!”
“How do we do that?”
“By destroying monogamy!” they shouted.
“How can we destroy monogamy?”
Their answer left me dumbstruck, breathless, disbelieving my ears. Was I on planet earth? Who were these people?
“By promoting promiscuity, eroticism, prostitution and homosexuality!” they resounded.
They proceeded with a long discussion on how to advance these goals by establishing The National Organization of Women. It was clear they desired nothing less than the utter deconstruction of Western society. The upshot was that the only way to do this was “to invade every American institution. Every one must be permeated with ‘The Revolution’”: The media, the educational system, universities, high schools, K-12, school boards, etc.; then, the judiciary, the legislatures, the executive branches and even the library system.
It fell on my ears as a ludicrous scheme, as if they were a band of highly imaginative children planning a Brinks robbery; a lark trumped up on a snowy night amongst a group of spoiled brats over booze and hashish.
To me, this sounded silly. I was enduring culture shock after having been cut-off from my homeland, living in Third-World countries for years with not one trip back to the United States. I was one of those people who, upon returning to American soil, fell out of the plane blubbering with ecstasy at being home in the USA. I knelt on the ground covering it with kisses. I had learned just exactly how delicious was the land of my birth and didn’t care what anyone thought because they just hadn’t seen what I had or been where I had been. I had seen factory workers and sex-slaves chained to walls.
How could they know? Asia is beyond our ken and, as they say, utterly inscrutable, and a kind of hell I never intended to revisit. I lived there, not junketed, not visited like sweet little tourists — I’d conducted households and tried to raise a child. I had outgrown the communism of my university days and was clumsily groping my way back to God.
How could twelve American women who were the most respectable types imaginable — clean and privileged graduates of esteemed institutions: Columbia, Radcliffe, Smith, Wellesley, Vassar; the uncle of one was Secretary of War under Franklin Roosevelt — plot such a thing? Most had advanced degrees and appeared cogent, bright, reasonable and good. How did these people rationally believe they could succeed with such vicious grandiosity? And why?
I dismissed it as academic-lounge air-castle-building. I continued with my new life in New York while my sister became famous publishing her books, featured on the cover of “Time Magazine.” “Time” called her “the Karl Marx of the Women’s Movement.” This was because her book laid out a course in Marxism 101 for women. Her thesis: The family is a den of slavery with the man as the Bourgeoisie and the woman and children as the Proletariat. The only hope for women’s “liberation” (communism’s favorite word for leading minions into inextricable slavery; “liberation,” and much like “collective” – please run from it, run for your life) was this new “Women’s Movement.” Her books captivated the academic classes and soon “Women’s Studies” courses were installed in colleges in a steady wave across the nation with < my sister > Kate Millett books as required reading...
I guess telling pajama boys to ‘Man-UP’ is microagression now? I love telling metrosexuals to man up. If we ever have to endure a Hillary win, I guess we can kiss Freedom of Speech goodbye. Oh well, that God Given Right is almost gone from Obamaland already.
If a man is manly, he is criticized for being manly.
If man whines about how unfair the world has become, most feminists will laugh and say things like: “The little sissy can’t take it. Come on, put on your big boy pants and take it like a man.”
Whichever path you choose, you just can’t win. Well, you win by not giving a damn. I won a long time ago.
Gettysburg College? I wonder what the pooh-bahs of that school think of that time in 1863 when Union and Confederate forces met in their vicinity and displayed “toxic masculinity”.
Not all women are feminists who are bitter because they have been rejected by real men. I married a manly man and I love him dearly. Ask any woman to be honest and she’ll take the alpha male any day over the wimpy metrosexual. If college men are looking for romance, they should ignore these professors.
Experts quoted therein also suggest that violent outbursts are prompted by masculinity pressures because “respect is linked to violence.”
Have they lost their frikking minds?? Sounds like these Experts could use a good Beat Down by someone exhibiting masculinity so they learn some Respect for their Fellow Man.
If anything, these femiNazis are toxic both in their general hatred of men and in their self-loathing. The self-loathing comes from being ugly people...both in their character and physically. No man with any mental capacity wants to be anywhere near these freaks.
Yup. "I Don't Care What You Think" is the best defense against insufferable SJW's. Their useless drivel only has the power you allow it to have.
Mr. Trump figured this out long ago. That's why he's living rent-free in liberal's heads.
Harmful side effects: attracting beautiful women.
Thirty+ years my husband has been coping with this side effect :)
The gander sauce ought to be applied to the goose, which won’t like it very much either.
It’s time for toxic men to retain their toxicity using the following steps:
1. wear real shoes. Stop wearing cute little flip flops. Real me wear shoes.
2. Carry a knife. Always
3. Lose the earrings.
4. It’s too late to do anything about the tattoos. Use that as a reminder of youthful stupidity.
5. Skinny jeans-Burn them. They look stupid, especially with flip flops.
6. Ditch the hair product.
7. Buy a few tools and learn how to use them. Fix something yourself. It feels good when you’re done, even if you screw it up.
8. Change your car tire, just for practice.
These feminazis have hooted down the quality once known as chivalry and then lambasted the shell that remains once it is gone.
They are wicked witches to the very last [Trump word].
9. Help OTHERS who need car tires changed...
Toxic... like antibiotics are to bacteria that is!
In the last three years, my daughters have had a couple flat tires. They know how to change them, but as soon as they get started, a toxic male stops by and does it for them.
The last one was a few weeks ago. My daughter called to tell me she had a flat. She lives 700 miles from me so there’s not much I can do. She called a few minutes later to tell me that it was all set thanks to a toxic male to whom I am grateful.
If a woman doesn’t want me to “be a man”, then I don’t want her to be my woman.
Stay manly, and tell those who object to ESAD.
