They have nothing to lose...except time in the kitchen or washing floors or bathrooms.

Of course they never give credit to the men who "dig" ditches, provide money for their "shopping sprees", cut the lawn, fix the car, go off to war, fight fires, police our streets, keep our government working, and YES, give them children.

Women have become "monsters" who see only one side of the coin...STUPID

Oh yeah, I'm a women!!

Oh, I'm sure these campus groups have lots of whoopee-do important issues to protest over, but---

I like to go swimmin' with bow-legged women.
But I can't find any bow-legged women, and If I do, they say they can't swim, or else they don't want to go swimmin', or else they just don't want to go swimmin' with me.

Just who do I see about that? Huh?

The connection between women's rights and environmental issues is called "ecofeminism". Apparently, some colleges offer majors in ecofeminism.

"[w]hile upon initial examination, these groups appear to operate completely independently without a common agenda, upon closer inspection, the groups can be seen as different pieces of the same conservative pie."

CODE RED!

Dang it! They've found out about the VAST RIGHT WING CONSPIRACY.

To the Batcave...we need to change our identity.

CODE RED!

"the epidemic of women forgoing careers as sports coaches because they fear people will think they are lesbians"

'Not that there's anything wrong with that'
I couldn't resist, I just had a Seinfeld moment.

There are some real issues for feminists. Only I don't see them protesting it:
1. Clinton's rape charge.
2. Fashion industry's insisstance on designing shoes that not only prevent women from walking fast but actually damage feet.
3. The ridiculous clothes seen at fashion shows which no one who expects to be taken seriously would consider wearing.
4. The reducing of women to sex objects on much of prime time TV & in scores of films.
5. Marv Albert.
6. The pass given to athletes such as Iverson, Ray Lewis and Randy Moss for abuse of women.

You know, the reason no one takes REAL misogyny or racism seriously anymore is because groups like this SO trivialize the issue and make mountains out of molehills that they've lost any credibility they may have once had. 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!

*cringe* Women like these, give women like me a bad name. I believe in equal rights and equal pay, but I'm still very old fashioned when it comes to relationships. I mean what man wants their women wearing combat boots in the bedroom? But then again, it seems as if these women don't like men. Sheesh!!! Must be something in the water at Stanford.

"If you have been searching for a place to connect with sisters who proudly claim both their lesbian and Christian identities,"

Christian Identity Lesbians? Do they worship Eva Braun?

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.

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.

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.

"You anti-choice Right Wing nuts just don't "get it"--do you! The oppressed Womyn of this nation will fight for economic and post-menstrual justices against the hegemony of social-fascists who mean to deprive us of our reproductive and economic freedom of pagan worship of the goddess Cunnilgar of Lesbos! You Christian hate filled men will be humiliated under the jack-boot of Smith grads who will fight for our rights of self-determination and.......

"Saaay darlin! Are you going out for the Womyn's Field Hockey Team this year? I'm an assistant coach!"

I almost thought the title of the article was about feminist faking orgasm....but come to think of, that is too revolting to even consider.
