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.”

A penis owner can make more money digging a ditch than a female college grad.

As it should be. Digging ditches is hard work, uncomfortable when the weather turns bad, involves a certain amount of risk (which is why ditch diggers wear hard hats and safety shoes), and provides vital infrastructure.

A female college grad with a gender-studies degree runs the risk of poking herself with a needle while making her vagina costume, but that's about it.

I take it you never heard of the “I Need Feminism because...” social awareness campaign. Just put in “I need feminism” in your search engine of choice, click on images, and sit back and enjoy some comedy gold based on hyper-emotional and illogical toddlers disguised as adults. Women as well as men provide the amusement.

Not all college degrees are in idiotic subjects like gender studies.

I do have a liberal idiot friend who goaded her daughter into taking a degree in “Black Studies” and who now is relegated to substitute teaching.

Some females have college degrees where earning power is severely limited based on profit margins and demand that do not meet their needs.

Penis owners “dig holes” in fields where there is demand and higher profit margins and actually see a paycheck that meets their needs.

Immature parents put their heavily indoctrinated kids in a video where they are instructed to cuss and regurgitate easily refutable feminist talking points.

You have no problem with that even though you just backtracked from your original point.

Have a grand day

My mistake, you said you loved this boorish disingenuous video then backtracked with the “some” card thus proving that this video’s message is dishonest.

I will leave you with this video. Hope you love it better than the one that is being parodied.
