Wow, I didn’t think I’d see the day when the left was actually open about their goals and opinions on this matter.

Yes, the “women’s liberation” movement IS about women being able to act in as socially a reprehensible manner as men without morals and character. I just didn’t think they’d admit it!

Instead of requiring men to behave better (thus IMPROVING society), they openly desire for everyone to behave reprehensibly.

Many “feminists” DETEST the idea that women are to be the moral/sexual “gatekeepers” to keep men from acting on their base fleshly desires.

Do we know for sure that the problem is the ethnic Brits? Unless there is a demographic breakdown of the data provided why should we not believe of the problem is caused by an influx of Caribbean and African immigrants?

I find this highly unlikely.

I find it quite likely. In the US, we have different attitudes about conception control than others in this world. I'd say that we rely much, much more on abstinence-only sex education than the rest of the world, especially in Europe.

As we've famously seen a few months ago, teen pregnancy often results from the mixed messages kids get.

Men are pigs by nature.

Interesting how on this issue, conservatives and feminazis have managed to find common ground.

I looked it up a while ago. What I read confirmed my impression when I was there, it’s the ethnic Brits. Teenagers there seem to be out of control. IMO drinking plays a large part.

This shoots the movie “Love Actually” between the eyes where a young Brit’s goal is go to America for an easy lay. He should’ve looked in his own backyard.

Maybe he also wanted the girl to have good teeth too?

In today’s Russia:

The highest abortion rate among Caucasian women.

The lowest life expectancy (59) among Caucasian males.

And Putin thinks he will restore Russia as a Great Power to be feared? He may have to rely on foreign mercenaries.

Lack of religion and morals, lack of pride in self and country, also play a role.

Of course I know what you mean. But the reality is disease, scratchy old hos, and painful growths and bugs. The fantasy is very different.

Since becoming a christian I realise that Gods way is better, and more sexually fulfilling

Not surprising, any of these, though I can't confirm the validity of any of those statistics. But it's clear that Britain, which once had its own viable Film Industry, long ago lost it..... it has been replaced by the much tinier, but probably more profitable British Porn Industry. Something unthinkable 35 years ago.

People don’t realize the incredible toll the loss of the best of British men from WWI and WWII took, Britain will never recover from that.

This is one newspaper I don’t want to see go bankrupt.

May all the liberal rags do so, soon.

I have no doubt about the drinking part. I recall an overnight ferry ride from Ireland to Liverpool with drunks of every age and station passed out all over the decks covered in their own vomit. Their condition was not attributable to Mal da mer.

They really are just half way there. And not for the right reasons. To wit:

I walk into a store with my wife. A single man sees her and wants to have sex with her. He doesn't try because...

A) She is with me and he knows that she has empowered herself by choosing me. He respects her as an individual and goes off to seek a partner who wants to empower herself by screwing him.

B) He knows I will monkey stomp him if he tries.

The feminists never pick B

"... there are all sorts of double standards out there where men's short-term mating was sort of acceptable but women's wasn't," said lead researcher David Schmitt ... who hopes that eventually, enough women will engage in short-term mating that one will be desperate enough to do it with him.

“...”Historically we have repressed women’s short-term mating and there are all sorts of double standards out there where men’s short-term mating was sort of acceptable but women’s wasn’t,” said lead researcher David Schmitt, a psychology professor at Bradley University...”

Of course they could have approached the double standard by trying to get men to be less ape like. The double standard existed in the eyes of society and not the eyes of God. Instead of feeling sorry for women in the double standard they should have felt sorry for men for falling further short of what God wants.

“People don’t realize the incredible toll the loss of the best of British men from WWI and WWII took...”

Add French losses in WWI and the South’s in The War. Civilization is a game of inches at best and when the Reaper takes so many of the very best society does indeed suffer the consequences.

It really is a post Christian culture. The churches there are more museums than anything else. They do have pride but it's in being environmentally conscious or animal rights sensitive. I didn't see a lack pride in country. American kids definitely lack this, so it stuck out to me.

As a man, I find it hard to come out against lots of women willing to have no-strings sex.

If you're not being facetious, then your attitude about sex is even less rational and devoid of natural affection then most other mammals, if that is possible.
