The problem with being addicted to outrage as therapy is that you end up in a continual struggle to come up with something further to be outraged at. Tantrums can be very comforting, but most of us outgrow that around elementary school.

"....Unless of course the woman is the Captain and the man is the Naughty Private."

Wouldn't have it any other way. Extra leather on the side please. :^)

Instead, Choices' main purpose seems to be to invent trendy but fluffy problems and issues for their female college student members to become morally outraged and exercised about.

Does anyone remember awhile back when FR was temporarily overrun for a few days with angry feminist Wellesley coeds, who were apparently angry about what was being said about their school? I can't remember what brought them here, but I remember enjoying them getting their comeuppance here.

Well, we can always help you out there, Maybe next month we'll send some cold weather MRE's. lol And maybe some cold weather gear and some white "Mickey Mouse" boots?? I mean if you don't want that private to get hypothermia, you'll definitely have to implement some warming procedures.

BTW, how are those kittens doing? LOL

You know what is even more sad and absurd about the whole thing, WyldKard? Andrea Dworkin was one of the few, if not the only, high-profile feminist to denounce Clinton's behavior.

Ahhhhhhhhh yes, feminism. To the two percent of feminists out there striving for true equality...I'm behind you 100%. I see the other 98% as opportunists. I dated a screaming militant feminist once.....over a dinner in which I paid for, she proceeded to tell me "the only good thing you get from marrying a guy is a nice rock on your finger". This senseless blather lasted about an hour. Up until that point in time, I had never wanted to get drunk on a date. Well, I tied a good one on and after we left, I hopped in her car so she could drive me the short distance to my home and drop me off. It was pouring rain outside. On the way she got a flat tire and hobbled around the back streets near my home. Her tire came off the rim and then ground to a halt.
Sitting there in the car we spent a few silent moments staring at each other.....I KNEW she wanted me do the manly thing and get out and change the tire. But being a closet feminist myself, I felt it only proper for her to step up to the plate and commence with the grunt work herself. She was seething with anger after I offered to hold the umbrella as she got on her hands and knees, slid the jack under the car, jacked it up and skinned some knuckels changing the tire. AAHHHHHH yes........equality folks, thats what it's all about. After much straining and grunting, the flat was fixed and I thanked her for a lovely evening, then proceeded to walk across the strees to my house. I hear she's still single........I wonder why.

Ally McBeal looks like a concentration camp survivor or heroin addict. There are many more such as her on prime time TV. It's an unhealthy and deterimental image to present to young girls and women. Yet I haven't heard any great outcry from the feminists.

One problem with feminism is that many are actually Democrats or Clintonits (such as NOW) who try to pass themselves off as feminists. Other, such as Betty Friedan, are mentally unstable yet have been presented by the media as feminist "leaders."

Andrea Dworkin really showed the colors of this movement when she said it was impossible for a man to have sex with a woman and not have it be rape...morons!

I am getting mighty tired of these dysfunctional mental cases of the female sex who claim to speak for all women. For the record, they've never polled me so how can they possibly claim to speak for me. [insert epithet of your choice here]

But, but.. You actually think that men and women can actually have sexual relations and enjoy it? /joking

Okay, one more point for the good guys.
I agree with your sentiment. I had two esteemed young misses say that because I held a door open for them that I was sexually harassing them. I've been wondering how long it will take for women in general to tell these brain cases to shut up. Judging from personal responses, and reading this thread, I guess it's just a matter of time until the Femnazi's get the boot..

In his book, The Stand, Stephen King has one of the characters musing on how non-feminist she is now that she is pregnant in a post-apocalyptic America. It has been a long time since I read that book, but she wrote in her journal, "It's as if we said, 'OK, Thank you very much men for taming our environment, fighting off wild beasts, and creating a civilization in which we can live without fearing for our lives. Now go away, we'll take it from here.'"

It's a poor quote, but it gets the sense across.

Stephen King is a bit of a freak, but I think he had something to say in that quote.

Shalom.
