I think you misunderstood, I was discussing a proper definition of feminism according to text book and dictionary. My whole issue is that representation is stereotypical and high profile "feminists" that are no more than left wing lesbians dressed up as something else are making this situation worse. A TRUE feminist is probably not in the public eye and does not promote any agenda. What you see in the public eye is a perversion

That's my take on all of this. I have nothing against the Susan B. Anthony style feminism, that is if the person so chooses and has the ability to do so, then he or she should have that opportunity to have that door opened to them. Where feminism went wrong, among other things, is during the 1960's the "free love" and "I wanna be just like a man" crowds took over and that is what we have today. We went to "just do it" to "let's take over and exact revenge." A mind is a terrible thing to waste, male or female, but we must realize that men and women are different, God created us that way and each has it's own nature for a purpose.

Of course in any huge populations, you have some that are not of the norm, you might have women who seek the power careers while men may want to stay home with the kids. These tend to be few, but I have no problem with that if that's what the family wants. I see things in a bell curve, each gender has its own skew to it.

Good points you make Nowhere Man and pretty much in line with my own thoughts on the matter :-)
