Watch Little Princesses Curse for the Feminist Cause (Slate - profanity warning)
Slate ^ | 10/23/14 | Amanda Hess

Posted on 10/23/2014 5:11:17 PM PDT by Faith Presses On

“What is more offensive? A little girl saying ‘f---’ or the f---ing unequal and sexist way society treats girls and women?” That is the premise of a new ad for progressive apparel company FCKH8, which recruited a group of little girls, dressed them in frilly princess costumes and plastic tiaras, and instructed them to swear like sailors to promote feminist causes. (Also: to sell T-shirts.) “What the f---? I’m not some pretty f---ing helpless princess in distress!” one shrieks. “Here’s a hot tip!” another yells. “Stop telling girls how to dress, and start teaching boys not to f---ing rape.” Later, a special co-star joins in: A boy, also dressed like a princess, screaming, “Bro, when you tell a boy it’s bad to act ‘like a girl,’ it’s because you think it’s bad to be a girl.” As one of his fellow little princesses says: “F--- that sexist shit.”

I miss the days when such a backlash was raised against companies or anyone else doing things like this that they were forced to apologize and flee back to the darkness they came from, and the public was reminded of how depraved secular humanist ideas are. The recent Toys R Us toy scandal was a good start, but not nearly enough.

I can’t even imagine the depravity of the “parents” of these little girls.

These are the kind of children who need their pictures on the back of milk cartons.
And are probably the kind who end up missing and never found.

Their parents should lose custody of those kids and jailed.
Yea, I'm old fashioned and brought up with morals.

I watched about 1 min of the tripe and couldn't stand anymore.
This was meant to be insulting to the extreme against everybody.

I’d wonder if I could get away with slapping a 13-year old girl upside her face if she were to come up to me shouting profanities, but if I could I’d do it so hard she’d squirt tears.

I am sorry, I love it. I think it perfectly makes the point. A penis owner can make more money digging a ditch than a female college grad.

They should be brought up for child abuse.

I'm thinking back about all the bullsh!t corporate classes I had to sit through about sexual harassment and hostile workplace rules. If I had dropped an "F"-bomb with in earshot of a liberally indoctrinated female who filed a complain, I'd have been hittin' the bricks.

So? Dig ditching actually involves potential danger. And it really involves what field one chooses. And last but not least, profanity is sin according to God, and tempting children to use it is that much worse.

Nobody is stopping the girl from going and digging ditches.

I worked for a Caterpillar distributor for a while. We would run a ad for a receptionist and 50 females would apply. We would run a ad for an equipment operator and 3 males would apply.

Guess what? The job running the backhoe out in the sun wind and rain paid more then running the phones in an air conditioned office.

I asked a young lady why she didn't apply for the EO job. She acted like I had asked her to skin a skunk.

Ditch digging is hard work and uncomfortable. That is why it pays well.

Going to college is not a piece of cake either

Matthew 18:1-7:

18 At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who, then, is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”

2 He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them. 3 And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 5 And whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me.

6 “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. 7 Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to stumble! Such things must come, but woe to the person through whom they come!

I wonder how many of these precious angels had little brothers or sisters that were aborted by their feminist mothers?

Who said it was?

But everybody is going to college. Very few people are learning how to become an equipment operator and yes it does take skill to do it properly.

Supply and demand.

College kids are in high supply. Equipment operators are in low supply.

Not a lot of private or public (Jobs already field in that tax payer boondoggle) sector demand for a patriarchal privilege investigator.

A person who digs holes for construction purposes has more impact on civilization than this college grad any day of the week.

Well, since the former is an actuality that you’ve brought into being, and the latter is a feminist generated myth to advance an agenda,
I’d say the former was far more offensive.

Is that a real pic, photo shopped, or just a joke?

Nah. You'll be able to find them maybe 12-15 years from now, straddling a pole.

Yes ...

Backhoe Operator is a much more lucrative career path than than Left-handed Feminist Genderqueer Basketweaving Studies.

Most of the folks interested in “Backhoe Operator” are men.

Most of the folks interested in “LFGBS” are women.

Deal with it.

Spluttering and hurling obscenities doesn’t qualify as “dealing with it”.
