Could not help but notice from your posting history that you come across as a militant feminazi. Not a feminist, suffragette, or woman’s rights advocate. I smell a man hating woman with an agenda on FR. The repeated condescension and hostility towards others is shocking. A rather liberal perspective plastered all over a conservative forum. Just sayin’.
Wait a minute - I suggest that using “ette” to demean someone is reinforcing the meme that women are inferior, and then quite a few people come out saying women ARE inferior, and I’m a “feminazi”?
I object to sexism and misogyny, yes. If you look at my views from the viewpoint of these posters, yes, I must seem very different. But a person expecting equality is not the extreme person (and women have had the vote for 50 years - they didn’t get it until after black people did - so I’m pretty sure there are no more suffragettes).
Someone else could look at some posts here about protecting the 2nd amendment, and call them all gun crazies. Does that make it accurate? If someone threatens your guns or your religion, do you stand up for it? Yet somehow I’m different, for standing up for women’s equality...? I read blatently sexist posts, but *I* am the condescending one?
“militant feminazi”??? because I don’t condone sexism? It’s hyperbole, with a design. I suggest that the name-calling is nothing more than an attempt to shut me down, rather than examine your own position.
I did not respond to that original post to ignite a sexist firestorm. Some of you and I are very far apart on issues of fairness, and we will never come to a meeting of the minds. While I am not suggesting that one gender is superior, the others are. But *I* am the extreme one? Wow.
