Surely these Girl Power programs aren't teaching girls to shoot and hunt. I can't imagine them even suggesting it.

I have a very strong opinion on this “Girl Power” BS. Wanna hear it?

My daughter is not allowed to wear T-Shirts that insult men or make derogatory comments about the male sex. I do not want my daughter to get the idea that she can have power because of what is between her legs or what is on her chest. I want my daughter to have power over herself (with the Lord’s help of course). If my daughter should ever obtain a position of power in life, I want it to be because she is honest, intelligent, passionate AND compassionate, and brave enough to fight for what she believes in. I want her to understand that she will never obtain power or self confidence by overtly insulting her Daddy or little brother’s reproductive parts.

My daughter is a loving, smart cookie. She will achieve her goals in life because she loves and respects herself. She is learning to love men from an example set by her female role models in her family and church. I don’t want her to get anything in life, because she kicked a man in the nuts physically or verbally.

Sorry if I’m being vulgar, but this is something I feel very strongly about. I want my children to respect HUMAN BEINGS because they ARE humans. Not respect or disrespect someone because of their skin color, sex, religion, etc. I want her to have an appropriate pride in being female and the gifts that come from being feminine. That pride will not come from degrading men.

They are, but they only hunt and shoot men. So watch out, you male white corporate oppressor!
