Bizarre.
I hadn’t notice that FR has turned feminist. Plenty of strong women around here, and some of them older no doubt, but I never heard any of them boasting that they were feminists.
Sarah Palin is a pretty strong woman, too. Does that make her a feminist? I don’t think so.
Huh. It seems he's all wrapped up about some thread where nmh had some posts deleted? So? So have I a couple times. I was even suspended once for being argumentative, albeit for a very short time.
But then the posts he's apparently upset about aren't available for consideration, having been deleted, so there's nothing to judge his anger by. A nice bit of journalistic cover up there. nmh having been around since 1998, I'd say this is all a big case of silliness.
All in the space of a few hundred words.
Who’d a thunk it ? !
The author is nuts.
I never got the memo that this used to be a women hating site. I'm always the last to know...
Jim.....your Free Republic site has been a thorn in the left’s side for over 10 yrs......so you must be doing something right for them to boo like this ! But the attacks seem to be getting shriller and shriller.....and funnier and funnier.
Freepers as Man Hating Old Women indeed !!
I wonder who will be the first to use that as their freeper name?
Did the writer spew this garbage in a hot tub with Jayson Blair and Blair’s favorite former boss, Pinch?
This cranky 58 yr old thinks feminists are idiots.
You know you’ve really tweaked someone when they refer to you as this person did in the article. In a word, pathetic.
BTW, where are you hiding those feminist women? Inquiring minds would like to know.
Let’s see, we’re about as anti-abortion as any internet sight could be, yet this is supposed to be a feminist haven now. Well, Jim, you sure know how to attract the feminists bud.
There are commentaries all the time on men’s issues here. You better be careful. You could lose your core base of support.
Take care bud.
It’s the soy, Jim.
You’ve got to cut out the Soy!
*giggle*
Are these people for real?
This Peterson guy is a nutball.
Just another flame throwing article by a Liberal Looney!
The only “crippled” thing here is his brain.
Comments like that smacks of a wretched upbringing.
That being said, insulting comments about our Fearless Leader will NOT be tolerated!
He needs a good ZOT!
Funny, I see more women hating posts than I do man hating posts. Maybe this person should have taken a look at some of the divorce threads or child support threads.
I can't say I've ever felt constrained. For the record, let me say that feminism is an evil ideology.
As an offshoot of Marxism, feminism takes root in the bad behavior of both men and women. It is the inevitable growing pain of a society where wealth has become so widespread, people start to think they are gods with no responsibility to form and protect families. The first step toward it is an increase in infidelity by average males. The second step is females trying to avoid getting hurt, and eventually swearing off men in advance. And then those females try to mess up the marriages and prospects of other females.
In other words, feminism is an understandable emotional response and life-strategy, but as policy, it is always self-contradictory and confused, being built on falsehoods about history and human nature. Feminism draws its broadest appeal and support through the exploitation of envy, spite, fear, and pride. The first American feminists were pro-life and pro-chastity, but unfortunately, I think they didn't understand the emotional consequences of their ideas. As a philosophy, feminism leads logically to selfishness, and hence to promiscuity, homosexuality, and induced abortion.
On the bright side, I believe our society is beginning to out-grow feminism.
Yes — what the heck are they talking about???
"Feminism" HA!
I triple dog dare you, moderators.
(Don't make me look stupid, OK? OK?)
You know you’re over your target when you start taking flak...;’}
That’s funny, I could have sworn most of us here wanted Sarah Palin at the top of the ticket in Nov. Last time I checked Sarah Palin was a woman.(And a damn good looking one too)
You should hire someone to tell you what is going on...I will work for $245. an hour
I like strong women ... in heels, with fishnet stockings, and a whip ... smoking and whipping their hair around while they order me about, calling me names ...
Wait ... is that what he is talking about?
Nevermind ... forget I said anything ...
