"If there is a human race in 100 years, women will be the ones to show us all the way on the basis of nurturing, not fame and power and glory,"

And Pete Seeger is naive. His statement about nurturing women made me laugh.

I'm sorry but you're reactionary views want to make me puke. Just because a liberal says woman are nurturers doesn't mean you have to say something so political and ugly! I would say by nature woman are nurturers. Can't people here respond to comments from liberals in a calm fashion, and not automatically brand their rational views as irrational just because most of their views are irrational.

Oh come on, I mentioned NOW, Hillary, Barbara Boxer, and Dianne Feinstein by name, and did not tar all liberal women with not being nurturing.

And I will expound on why I said what I said. For years feminists have been saying that things would change once women were put in charge, that women are more nurturing and care more about the downtrodden etc. Well, I sure don't see that occurring from most of the female politicians. They seem to think that abortion is the #1 issue for all women, that we all want a career instead of a husband and a family, that when we get married, we all want to work, and juggle our children around. Women who stay home and raise their children are routinely put down by the feminists. In their eyes, a woman is nothing unless she has a career.

And the ironic part is that the women who choose to put their careers on hold or go part time after they have children will have a greater impact on the next generation than all of those childless feminists. And if Seeger meant that women will have a huge impact on the next hundred years by having children and raising them, good for him.
