Feminism is now a means of excusing behavior that should never be tolerated. It’s also used as a means to sue someone who looks at them in waht said feminist thinks is a wrong way.

Steinem said "you become a semi-nonperson when you get married," ...

Common lore expresses a similarly dire view of marriage from the male point of view. What could be the attraction?

I don’t know if “feminism” is such a hot topic. The Muslim Brotherhood mandates female circumcision, and none of the so-called U.S. feminists are against rolling back Egypt’s law against that brutal practice.

Phyliss:

The feminists don't know what to say about Sarah Palin, but they can't resist talking about her. They can't deal with the facts that she has a successful career, a cool husband and lots of kids; and it's salt in the feminists' wounds that she's pretty, even while wearing glasses.

Simple observation: So long as ‘feminists’ continue to turn a blind eye to the Muslim world, they will forever lack any moral standing on the one topic they identify themselves with. An abolitionist can not say that slavery’s just fine in the Arab world and continue to hold any moral underpinning.

Thus, feminism is dead. Perhaps it can be revived.

There was also a book written a few years back by a former (I would guess token) male member of the National Organization for Women (NOW) called The Myth of Male Power written as a once true-believer become disaffected by having to face up to fact after fact, and how the movement was unconcerned with the truth, hostile if presented with it.

Prediction for the feminist handling of Sarah Palin: she will be charged as so affected by the 'patriarchy' that she is no longer able to recognize how (so feminists must tell us), and serves to further her 'disenfranchisement' with everything she does and says (that isn't in service of feminist screed). ie. Up is down...

As a mom to many sons, I can say that one unfortunate result of feminism is the wussification of many American males. Feminists want boys to act like girls and to have situations set up so there is always a level playing field in all areas. It has become an increasingly difficult challenge to allow boys to succeed and to be proud of their successes. I also have daughters and when they whine that their brothers beat them in some activity and it isn’t fair, I tell them too bad. Either work harder to become better or don’t play.

Feminists showed their true colors when they concocted the “First Grope Free” doctrine to excuse Bill Clinton’s escapades with Monica Lewinski.

They lost more ground when they expanded it to give him a “First Grope Free” on every female within his long reach.

When even that wasn’t enough to excuse his serial groping they just decided to ignore his sexual abuse of women entirely.

When their policy of ignoring abusers of women was extended to musims for their institutionalized treatment of females as second class citizens, the forced wearing of burkas, and serious abuses like forced circumcision, honor killings, whipping and stoning, the feminist movement lost all credibility.

Today the idea of feminisim is laughable - the movement has been reduced to a charade. They are a bunch of bitter hags, lesbians and aborters who exist to perpetuate abortion and elect democrats.

"Feminism is a structural analysis of a world that oppresses women, an ideology based on the notion that patriarchy exists and that it needs to end."

Feminism is a hateful instrumental lie propagated by international Communism to weaken, etiolate, and ultimately ruin Western Civilization.

That feminism is Communism is proven by recourse to the c.v. of Betty Friedan (assumed name), who as a high-school and college student was an ardent Communist and left college to go to work for a Communist union newspaper.

Her sob story about leaving college for a man who then dumped her is a lie. She sacrificed her college degree on the altar of international Communism.

As Catholic novelist Mary McCarthy said about another Communist "celebrity", playwright Lillian Hellman, "she lies even when she uses words like 'and' and 'the'."

By November 2009, the feminists were ready to gloat and to reproach Americans for relying on "an outdated model of the American family."

They want the woman at work and the government to be the husband while destroying any children she might find time to produce, turning them into delinquents with public schools.

Feminists have been feeding clap trap to young women for decades telling them, it’s about “choice”. Then when a woman chooses to marry and assume the roles of mother and homemaker she is marginalized and told she is a parasite, outmoded, and useless to society.

Feminism is dead because of Republican women and Islam. Democrats want to be able to portray Republican women as stupid which is a form of misogynist bullying that feminists have always condemned. Not only that, they are unwilling to criticize Islam for the worst abuses of women.
It’s rather hard to call for “equality” when you are a fan of people who are forcing women under a shroud and into the basement of the church.

Feminism is a rump cult of liberalism, where a few hacks make the money the bulk reap get what they ask for from life. At Kos the fems routinely get rolled by the other cults, one example is some fem of FemKos had her thread on “Corrective rape in South Africa” rolled by BlackKos for the fem’s “racism.” Literally hundreds of posts of womyn whining and crying and asking for forgiveness while the sadists of BlackKos poured it on their silly lib heads.
