Look kid, I know it isn’t supposed to be taken literally...and it’s still stupid!
You're really old, so tell me. Do you remember a time when divorce was frowned upon by society? People were ashamed to be divorced. Do you remember when an illegitimate child was called a bastard? When teen daughters who got pregnant were shipped off to Aunt Sally's in North Dakota to save the family's honor?
Those were all examples of "public shaming." People avoided those behaviors, partly to avoid public shaming.
This is what I'm talking about when I say public shaming. It's a thing, and a valuable tool to enforce the civil code.
Today, in large part, there is no shame for these behaviors. In fact, it is celebrated. High schools now have special rooms for "teen moms" to bring their kids. Single mothers are heroes. Chicks like in this article under discussion are written about in magazines as good examples.
This can all be lain at the feet of modern feminism.
You can ask for a return to rules, manners, civility, morality and yes, those are important. But the way those are enforced is by actual action, not disregard. Public shaming is part of that enforcement.
And as for a return to actual parenting. Over half the population of todays youth are products of a broken home or being raised by single mothers. Parenting suffers and we have generations of broken people because of it. The reasons for these broken homes can also be lain at the feet of feminism, as I've described previously.
So, I repeat.
Feminism is cancer.
In a crate of a dozen candles, a 25 watt light bulb is "brilliant". In a room with a six tiered chandelier, holding six arms on each tier, and each arm having a 60w light bulb, that 25w bulb is as nothing. Are you sure you are even as "bright" as that 25w bulb? You aren't!
Happily, I went to college before there was such stupid things as classes and/or degrees in IDENTITY POLITICAL effluvia.
You've absolutely no idea whom you're dealing with...you poor subhuman low life.
LOL
YIKES...posted that one to fast and it is more than a bit garbled. I should refrain from posting whilst on the phone.
I’m well educated and have an extensive vocabulary, which I’ve had to dumb down, when posting here, because so few know simple but very good English words. But this is as dumbed down as I can get; sorry if I’m still confusing/upsetting the terminally illiterate here. :-)
This is NOT "fun" and you must be a sick pervert of a masochist to be enjoying this public humiliation.
And neither MM nor I "like you" and hell I don't ever even want to be in the same state you happen to be in!
That IS “mannerly”!
You have “friends”? Are they a bunch of uneducated low lifes like you?
That’s not the first time, however. Back in the 1980s, my then-living Grandmother on my Mother’s side would always be getting these magazines with names like True Story, True Confessions and Modern Romance. One of the magazines had a story about a young lady who started a romance with her cousin. So this in nothing new. Time will tell if it’s an actual trend today.
Of course one CAN and SHOULD raise a daughter to not fall for that crap.
She has Decked The Halls of many boys and men over the years.
Actually it has been around since the Garden of Eden; Adam’s first mate/wife ( if one believe in the earliest Jewish version of Genesis ), Lilith, claimed to be Adam’s “equal”, since she too had been fashioned from clay, sans one of Adam’s ribs. Later on, Lilith became one of the demons in the Jewish lexicon of demons and one of the worst.
But it is a German dystopian sci-fi movie, filled with German Expressionism film technique/filming.It's not anything at all to do with a "feminist movement", of which there was none, right after WW I, but rather an anti-authoritarian/anti-war film.
Sanger was a eugenicist; her activism was in wanting to rid the world of certain populations ( blacks especially, the poor, and those whose ethnicities she felt superior to ) and not to loose upon the world generations of the louche.
I hope to continue being berated at some future date, Ms. Nopardons.
It's been a treat. See ya' round the campfire.
Thank you.
Back in the olden days, when dirt was young, we called these magazines "trashies."
Now the trash is mainstream.
I absolutely concur!
I’m not quite so sure what Metropolis has to do with the subject of feminism although it is a very great film as No Pardons says and stars the mesmerizing Brigette Helm in the dual role of the girl and the robot. Hey! Maybe, that’s it.
Most of the guys who are posting about “sluts” here, probably want a sex robot. But they’ll never find one looking like Helm.
