The World is Now Dominated by Women, Where Have I Been?

After hundreds of thousands of years of men ruling the world and everything in it, especially women and government, men are now saying that they feel emasculated. Boohoo.
Via Broadsheet, I read about a study done by the Telegraph surveying the feelings of modern men living in the 21st century. About 2,000 men and women were polled for this study online and the outcome is quite shocking, in a “You got to be kidding me” kind of way.
“Many men believe the world is now dominated by women and that they have lost their role in society, fueling feelings of depression and being undervalued.”
Wow, you know, this sounds eerily familiar. Say, aren’t men guilty of dominating the world and making women feel as if not only they don’t have a role in society, but they shouldn’t have a role in society? In fact, aren’t men continuing to make women feel this way today? Why yes, I believe they are! I would love to be informed as to where all of these women are dominating the world because I am sure as hell failing to see this.
This “study” also has the nerve to include:
“Asked what it meant to be a man in the 21st century, more than half thought society was turning them into “waxed and coiffed metrosexuals”
So what men are trying to say is that they feel it is unfair for them to be judged based on their physical appearance? Wow, that also sounds like more of the same. It is common sense that no one likes to be told or believe that they must live up to a stereotypical norm when it comes to appearance, but come on now, get serious. Men feel as if they are being forced into looking like something they’re not? Take a look at every Maxim, Stuff, Playboy, Penthouse and Hustler magazine; in fact, take a look at any magazine or turn your television on to any channel or watch any movie–And then look at the statistics for eating disorders and tell me that they don’t have the least bit to do with each other. Women have been conditioned to hate their bodies, which is the product of the media telling women what men want.
And lastly…
“Men said they “felt handcuffed” by political correctness – only 33 percent felt they could speak freely and say what they thought, whereas two thirds found it safer and to conceal their opinions.”
I know many women who find it safer to conceal their opinions, since women have also been conditioned to be seen and not heard and to be the pretty face next to the strong and powerful husband, which can clearly be seen in any story where a male politician or sports star is discovered in a sex scandal; of course, the woman is always standing by her man with her mouth shut, smiling politely like she is told to. A woman who chooses to speak her mind freely and openly is mostly ridiculed for her blunt honesty by the majority of people who care not to listen based purely on her possession of a vagina.
It seems as if once women set their footprints in the wet concrete of history and start making own choices without having to consult a man before doing so, the men start to get all uppity. You would think that with men feeling the way they apparently do, they would begin to see what women have gone through to get where they stand today and that they would understand and appreciate the activism and determination in which we have fought for our rights and have a better understanding of equal rights. However, men believe that they are deserving of all power in all aspects of life and in society based purely on their possession of a penis.
While you feel completely emasculated, confused and rejected from society, welcome to the lives of women.

Most women do need to be dominated

Many if not most women do need to be dominated, some are quite dominant themselves, and actually need someone who is more submissive.

The problem as I see it is in training. There is a grand mismatch situation going on because people who didn't have the social structure to match their social status, were badly trained for their positions.

Someone who was raised in old money is not taught that having good manners means that they have to actually be submissive or believe themselves to be subservient to their ranking superiors. They are taught that this is a form of social lubrication, and that is all. Most I know don't even defer to their parents.

It's in the middle classes and poor that things got confused. Too many people actually bought into the trends and dogma, and they raised their young boys not only to be polite, but submissive.

Whenever one is training a child against their nature, something is bound to go wrong. Now we have a horde of educated, professional males who are socially inept because they were badly programmed.

My brother, a very nice guy and somewhat submissive, has no trouble meeting good women. For him, it's just a matter of choosing which one to stick with.

Why? Because he was allowed to play in the dirt, and get injured a few times. He rode a skateboard and has had more scabs and bruises than I can count.

He learned to get hurt, and he learned to heal.

He was also, like me, taught how to effectively handle bullies and other nasty authority figures.

Even though we were a middle class family coming from a poor family, we never had the luxury of trusting the system enough to buy its values.

When you've been the target of the beast enough, you learn its nature, and how to live and thrive in spite of it.

Nice guys who find themselves suffering at the mercy of the trend favoring bad boys need to wake up. The solution is not to become a bad boy, but to find your own niche outside of the system. So long as you are trying to operate (date) within the system, you will continue to suffer because it wasn't made for your good. It was made to put money in the pockets of people with exponentially more money than you.

This whole thing...the cosmetics industry, the diet industry, fossil fuels...It is fed by the choices that people make to buy and to use and to support.

The women who are spurning you are the women who are feeding that system that works against you. It is bigger than you...and it is a kind of a demon...maybe not a spiritual one but definitely an economic one. This is why it seems that the world is against you. This is why it seems that women are against you.

A drone is not expected to breed.

I'm not saying to throw away your electric shaver and stop driving a car. What I'm saying is to get in touch with your nature...with nature itself. When you do, you'll see the difference between nature and the system, and you'll recognize others who do as well.

You won't even want the women who are chasing the bad boys. You'll actually see what pussies the bad boys are, and view them and those who want them as pathetic.

A natural man can be submissive and still be strong. He can be dominant, and still be kind.

Don't be generic, and you will perceive life and people outside of generalities.

They're trained this way because it suits the needs of those in power. Women's liberation didn't have to come with male bondage. Even matriarchy doesn't have to supercede patriarchy.
What needed to happen to make a truly beneficial social change was for natural leaders to lead and natural followers to follow, regardless of gender, ethnicity, or any other superficial classification. There should be more female politicians and more male home makers.

What happenned was what always happens with humans. We can't seem to, as a group, get the equality thing. Even as we speak, countries that used to have good social aid systems are starting to question what a minimally decent quality of life is. On the face, people blabber alot about how people should be treated equally and fairly under the law, but when it comes down to it, it's all about the people in power staying in power.

They will screw all of us to meet their ends...and they'll do it from the inside out.

Have a good look at what was going on with the economy around the time that "thug love" became popular in the mainstream...and what happenned to it over the next 10 years.

What was the starting salary of a network administrator, chemist, or engineer then and now?

How many companies would propose to a prospective employee in these fields, that they work part time officially, but actually full time hours, with no benefits?

Think about this.

"Something is rotten..."

Meanwhile, this, "I need a thug," thing is reaching a fever pitch with no end in sight.

Granted, this has been great for some artists who were trying to tell folks what the gutters are like, but like Snoop Doggy Dog himself says...He is telling people what it's like so they'll make things better, not so they'll think it's a good thing. The gangsta style is one thing, and the life is quite another.

Americans have always been into the renegade individualist, but you'll note that whenever this was seriously in fashion, there was always an economic reason for it.

Good guys have to be thinking guys. Then and only then can they beat the system. The government doesn't want you to think, and neither do big businesses. They just want to keep their money.

If half the country is poor, they don't suffer from it. Do big businesses suffer in Mexico? In the Sudan? In Egypt?

Okay let's get really third world...Palestine. Do you see any Palestinian government officials wondering if they're going to eat tomorrow?

They will get fat off our sweat and labor no matter what we do. So here on the level of the proletariat, we have to live our lives as best as we can, and screw the government, big corporations, and their values.

Just because we have to work for them doesn't mean we have to live like drones in our off time.

Don't forget who butters your bread, but don't let them decide who's in your bed.

What Do Women Want? Here Are the True Secrets Behind What Women Actually Want From a Man

Men would love to know the answer to this question. Just like women want to know what make men tick and what they desire in women, men too would love to know what women look for in men and what they want in a relationship. The following will give you an insight into a woman's desires.

Women want men they can rely on

No matter how strong a woman is or how confident, she will always want a man who is stronger. This is because she wants to look up to him. Very few women want to dominate their men. This does not mean they need to be dominated but they do want to see self confidence in their man.

Women look for self sufficiency

No matter how secure a woman really is, if she is going to get into a relationship with a man she is going to find out if he is self sufficient. No woman really looks forward to supporting her man. It is usually the other way round! She needs to know that he is in a position to look after her!

A woman usually wants honesty in a relationship

Women hate to be cheated upon just as men hate women who are not faithful. If a man is honest and truthful then she is at rest. Being able to trust someone you care for is always a priority with most women.

A woman loves a man who is ready for commitment

Most women have a fear that the man she is dating will not be ready for commitment. A man who is unafraid of commitment is very precious to her. Commitment to her is a way of saying "I love you" and meaning it.

Women like to be pampered

What woman can resist pampering? A man who can pamper her and make her feel on top of the world is one who will have her love. Women need to be complimented and told how much they are needed.

Women need respect

A man who treats a woman like dirt or a doormat will never keep her! Women need to be treated with respect no matter what. She always needs her partner to give her the time and space she needs. No woman can endure bullying or complete domination for long.

Women want men with a sense of humor

A man who can make her laugh and bring a bring ray of sunshine into any situation is what a woman is looking for. No woman likes a dour and grumpy man.

It starts when you sink in his arms and ends with your arms in his sink.  ~Author Unknown


To me, "sexual freedom" means freedom from having to have sex.  ~Lily Tomlin


And the crazy part of it was even if you were clever, even if you spent your adolescence reading John Donne and Shaw, even if you studied history or zoology or physics and hoped to spend your life pursuing some difficult and challenging career, you still had a mind full of all the soupy longings that every high-school girl was awash in... underneath it, all you longed to be was annihilated by love, to be swept off your feet, to be filled up by a giant prick spouting sperm, soapsuds, silk and satins and, of course, money.  ~Erica Jong

Women are not the weak, frail little flowers that they are advertised.  There has never been anything invented yet, including war, that a man would enter into, that a woman wouldn't, too.  ~Will Rogers


Tomboys are an assertion of reality, of practicality.  Forced femininity is a waste of energy and resources, and therefore of oneself.  Live to live.  ~Morgan Torva


We've begun to raise daughters more like sons... but few have the courage to raise our sons more like our daughters.  ~Gloria Steinem


Our only hope for the redemption of woman from the thralldom of dress lies in the belief that her hitherto limited sphere of activities has been so insufficient for her intellectual occupations that she has been forced to expend her thoughts in decorating her person, instead of enlarging her mind.  ~Mercy B. Jackson


There is more difference within the sexes than between them.  ~Ivy Compton-Burnett, Mother and Son


Because women's work is never done and is underpaid or unpaid or boring or repetitious and we're the first to get fired and what we look like is more important than what we do and if we get raped it's our fault and if we get beaten we must have provoked it and if we raise our voices we're nagging bitches and if we enjoy sex we're nymphos and if we don't we're frigid and if we love women it's because we can't get a "real" man and if we ask our doctor too many questions we're neurotic and/or pushy and if we expect childcare we're selfish and if we stand up for our rights we're aggressive and "unfeminine" and if we don't we're typical weak females and if we want to get married we're out to trap a man and if we don't we're unnatural and because we still can't get an adequate safe contraceptive but men can walk on the moon and if we can't cope or don't want a pregnancy we're made to feel guilty about abortion and...for lots of other reasons we are part of the women's liberation movement.  ~Author unknown, quoted in The Torch, 14 September 1987


Why is it that only girls stand on the sides of their feet?  As if they're afraid to plant themselves?  ~Barbara Kingsolver, Animal Dreams, 1990


Many beautiful women have been made happy by their own beauty, but no intelligent woman has ever been made happy by her own intelligence.  ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Second Neurotic's Notebook, 1966


During the feminist revolution, the battle lines were again simple.  It was easy to tell the enemy, he was the one with the penis.  This is no longer strictly true.  Some men are okay now.  We're allowed to like them again.  We still have to keep them in line, of course, but we no longer have to shoot them on sight.  ~Cynthia Heimel, Sex Tips for Girls, 1983


I didn't want to be a boy, ever, but I was outraged that his height and intelligence were graces for him and gaucheries for me.  ~Jane Rule


We haven't come a long way, we've come a short way.  If we hadn't come a short way, no one would be calling us baby.  ~Elizabeth Janeway


A woman is like a tea bag.  It's only when she's in hot water that you realize how strong she is.  ~Attributed to both Eleanor Roosevelt and Carl Sandburg


The little rift between the sexes is astonishingly widened by simply teaching one set of catchwords to the girls and another to the boys.  ~Robert Louis Stevenson


Men define intelligence, men define usefulness, men tell us what is beautiful, men even tell us what is womanly.  ~Sally Kempton


Sexism is a social disease.  ~Author Unknown


Men are irrelevant.  Women are happy or unhappy, fulfilled or unfulfilled, and it has nothing to do with men.  ~Fay Weldon


One does not have to sleep with, or even touch, someone who has paid for your meal.  All those obligations are hereby rendered null and void, and any man who doesn't think so needs a quick jab in the kidney.  ~Cynthia Heimel, Sex Tips for Girls, 1983


Women are all female impersonators to some degree.  ~Susan Brownmiller


All this pitting of sex against sex, of quality against quality; all this claiming of superiority and imputing of inferiority belong to the private-school stage of human existence where there are sides, and it is necessary for one side to beat another side.  ~Virginia Woolf, A Room of One's Own, 1929


You don't have to signal a social conscience by looking like a frump.  Lace knickers won't hasten the holocaust, you can ban the bomb in a feather boa just as well as without, and a mild interest in the length of hemlines doesn't necessarily disqualify you from reading Das Kapital and agreeing with every word.  ~Elizabeth Bibesco


My advice to the women's clubs of America is to raise more hell and fewer dahlias.  ~James McNeill Whistler

'Mom's gone crazy:' 4 killed in Seattle shooting

Sept 23, 2010

SEATTLE – A woman fatally shot three people and herself at a Seattle home Thursday, injuring another woman who fled into the front yard and told officers: "My mom has gone crazy," police said.
Officers responded to a report of gunshots at about 1:30 p.m. and could still hear shots being fired from the house when they arrived, police spokesman Sean Whitcomb said. A man in his 50s ran into the house. Two more shots were fired and he ran back out, telling officers his wife had shot herself.
When police were able to go inside, they found the four dead, including a woman in her 50s they believe was the shooter, Whitcomb said.
He said police don't believe anyone else was involved.
In addition to the older woman, the dead included two women in their late teens and a man in his 30s, police said. Their relationships were not immediately known.
Assistant Police Chief Jim Pugel said a wounded woman — who fled the house and is expected to survive — was able to speak to officers when they arrived.
"All she said was, `My mom has gone crazy,' " Pugel said.
The woman, who is in her 30s, was in serious but stable condition at Harborview Medical Center, hospital spokeswoman Susan Gregg-Hanson said Thursday afternoon.
Whitcomb said police would not release the names or ages of the deceased Thursday, adding that the information will come from the King County Medical Examiner.
Police said two handguns were recovered from the house in a lower middle-class neighborhood a block north of southwest Seattle's city limits. No motive for the shootings was known, officers said.
Neighbor Bobby Miller told KOMO that police showed up almost immediately after the shots were fired.
"I just heard gunshots. I come out and cops were all over," Miller said. "Just 'bam, bam' and that was it. Then screaming over here."
Travis Rowland, 53, said he was about a block away waiting to get his truck repaired at an auto shop when he saw a woman run from the house hollering.
As police arrived, Rowland said, a man "busted away from the police officers and ran into the house." Rowland said the man was inside for about 10 to 15 seconds before "there were a couple more shots, pow, pow, pow. At first I didn't know who was shooting. He came back outside."

First woman in 5 years executed in US amid outcry

What are they crying about, the fact that this women committed a hideous crime, and shouldnt be put to death, or the fact that she is a women?

JARRATT, Va. – The first woman to be executed in the U.S. in five years has been put to death in Virginia for arranging the killings of her husband and a stepson over a $250,000 insurance payment.
Forty-one-year-old Teresa Lewis died by injection at 9:13 p.m. Thursday. She became the first woman executed in Virginia in nearly a century. Supporters and relatives of the victims watchedd her execution at Greensville Correctional Center.
Lewis enticed two men through sex, cash and a promised cut in an insurance policy to shoot the sleeping men in October 2002. Both triggermen were sentenced to life in prison, and one committed suicide in 2006.
More than 7,300 appeals to stop the execution had been made to the governor in a state second only to Texas in the number of people it executes.

50 Years Later and the Pill Still Hasn’t Given Feminists the Penises they were Promised!

June 25, 2010

After 50 years on the market, the Pill has radical feminists angry it did not turn them into men.  The Pill did not make women gender equal, it did not give women penises.   Women are still popping pills and hoisting boobs into bras every morning like enslaved women.
50 years of the Pill and women still have breasts!  Now that’s a true crime against humanity.
Radicals are furious women are still getting pregnant (despite the fact radical feminists encourage schools to teach children how to use condoms and simulate sex); after 50 years of radical feminism, why aren’t women evolving into men?  The Pill did not liberate women from that nasty, girly body Feminazis try so hard to be rid of.
If one reads the June 21, 2010 New York Times column “Let The Pill Go Free,” by Kelly Blanchard, president of Ibis Reproductive Health, one easily makes the above assumption:
“LAST month, the 50th anniversary of the Food and Drug Administration’s approval of the birth control pill was marked by a lot of discussion about the ways in which the pill has failed to deliver on its promises.  It did not solve women’s problems juggling work and family life — nor did it end gender discrimination or eliminate unintended pregnancies.  Clearly, approving the use of the pill was only the beginning of the effort to meet women’s contraception needs.”
Kelly, Darling, the Pill meets the needs it was invented for:  prevent pregnancy and help women with medical problems requiring extra estrogen.  You feminists are angry the Pill didn’t do what you really hoped it would: grow penises.
Friedan Mystics need Sweden to accomplish that, but that way is permanent: one can’t remove the penis whenever one wants to whore it up with men.  After all, isn’t the whole idea of women being liberated: act like drunken frat boys, have sex with all the men—or women—you can.  Now that’s being a woman!
Blanchard’s column was nonsensical.  She protests the Pill for not making women gender equal, while objecting to the fact the Pill is a prescription drug, she insists need not be, despite side effect warnings Blanchard names:
“It’s true that the pill could be dangerous for women with certain conditions.  Women who are 35 or older and smoke, and those with high blood pressure, are at greater risk of a heart attack or stroke if they take oral contraceptives that combine estrogen and progestin.”

Blanchard contradicts herself, claiming:
“[T]hese are not complicated conditions to identify; women already have to tell their doctor about their health problems when they get a prescription, and research shows that women can screen themselves for contraindications almost as well as providers do.”
In other words, women are held back further by doctor’s examinations, discovering if the individual body agrees with synthetic estrogen.
But women should be free to have heart attacks during sex.  For heaven’s sake, men do!
Blanchard says the Pill does not endanger life like aspirin.  Another contradiction to the real complaint:  the Pill did not liberate women, creating a genderless society.
Blanchard went from gender equality in her opening thesis to arguing the Pill itself is not being treated equal, not given equal rights to over the counter drugs:
“Women don’t need a doctor to tell them if they need cold medicine or condoms, and they shouldn’t need a doctor’s permission to take the pill.  Over-the-counter sales would expand access to safe, effective contraception, and help women take control over their sexual and reproductive lives.”
“Take control over their sexual and reproductive lives” is leftist for act like men; hate your female body, because you weren’t born a man.  Radical feminists are stuck in a man’s world they want changed to a genderless society where they believe women can have it all without asking permission.
Notice conservative feminists do have it all: husbands, children (if they choose.  Conservative feminists don’t view the Pill prescription as burdensome, they have brains enough to call in refills) educations, careers (some very high-powered), they aren’t slaves; they run their homes—just ask their husbands who the real boss is.  Conservative feminists are equal to men—except in gender—which they don’t want equality in, because conservative feminists love being women.
50 years later, the Pill prevents pregnancy, something radical feminists wanted, but are unhappy with, because the Pill didn’t gender them into men.
In actuality, radical feminists hate the human race.

Fascist Feminism: The Idea That Women Are Too Stupid To Think For Themselves

June 29, 2010

About a month ago, Sarah Palin had the gall to describe herself as a feminist. Then, a crop of Republican women rose to prominence — most notably, Nikki Haley, Meg Whitman, Carly Fiorina, and Sharron Angle — by winning primaries across the country. Nikki Haley in particular, an Indian-American Christian conservative Republican woman, was the victim of horrendous attacks from the good ol’ boys club in South Carolina. But she was able to rise above the crude attacks and still win the gubernatorial primary in her state.
Suddenly, conservative feminism is everywhere. Women have become more and more politically active, and they’re rejecting the hijacking of feminism that’s been going on for several decades. Fascist feminists have come out in full force against it, digging their heels in deeper and deeper. The idea that women could make up their own minds about political issues and actually believe in conservative principles infuriates them, because women are supposed to toe a very specific ideological line.
After several weeks of conservative feminist bashing from the leftists Lori Ziganto has dubbed femisogynists, Amanda Marcotte has chimed in, with a column saying that conservative feminism is the idea that women are too stupid to know the difference. And, as per usual with any fascist feminist, the nonsensical argument revolves almost entirely around abortion.

Marcotte argues that abortion is not harmful to women (without citing any references to back up her argument, we should believe that it’s the truth because Amanda Marcotte Says So) and that conservatives do not see women as equal to men.
Common sense would demand that one not agree that there could be a kind of feminism that would declare the entire female sex incapable of handling the right to bodily autonomy. But the anti-choice feminists swear they have an argument! The argument is that Abortion Is Bad For Women, because it thwarts women from their true desires—so deep and true that many women don’t even realize they have them—to bring every pregnancy to term, no matter how much they think they don’t want it. They marshal all sorts of made-up evidence to support this argument, claiming incorrectly that abortion causes depression and breast cancer and probably ingrown toenails. The conclusion is that women have to be forced to bear children against their will for their own good.
. . . .
But setting aside even these historical realities, the argument underpinning anti-choice “feminism” is one based on the very un-feminist belief that women are simply too stupid to know their own minds. The narrative that suggests that women only think they want abortions, but will see the light if forced to bear children is to paint half of all adults as basically very tall children, except that it’s legal to have sex with them. In the anti-choice view, every single woman who enters an abortion clinic and asks for an abortion is really just a victim of her own stupidity and gullibility, and only after she has the abortion will she see how wrong she was. (They need to believe this so badly they simply overlook the evidence showing that most women who have abortions feel relief, and even those who feel sadness often don’t feel regret.) Any feminism that starts with the premise that women aren’t equal to men, because women are too stupid to make their own decisions, is simply not a kind of feminism. This is definitional—feminism starts with the belief that women are equal to men, especially with regards to intellectual and moral abilities. A feminism that doesn’t accept this is like a humanism that believes that human beings are fundamentally wicked and undeserving of rights—that is, it doesn’t exist.
 Marcotte, interestingly, is the same femisogynist who recently supported the decision of the American Academy of Pediatrics to endorse female genital mutilation. And somehow, we’re supposed to believe that she really cares about women’s rights? She cares about women, all right — as long as, in her own words, women stick to a very specific set of women’s issues — and abortion more than anything else. In fact, she cares about abortion so much that she’s willing to lie and cover up the truth about the effects abortion has on women. While the emotional effects of abortion could be debated, the risks associated with abortions are facts. A recent study, for example, proved that abortion more than triples the risks of breast cancer in Sri Lankan women. It’s the fourth study within fourteen months to show a link between abortion and breast cancer. The other three studies examined women in the United States, China, and Turkey and found similar results. And many, many women do feel guilt and regret for the rest of their lives after having an abortion. But who prepares them for all of that?
But because abortion is so super important to women, why bother to be honest and upfront about the risks associated with it? Fascist feminists like Amanda Marcotte do not want women to be informed about the realities of abortion. It’s why they argue against pre-abortion ultrasounds. They know that if a woman is unsure about getting an abortion, and she sees what her baby looks like, she’ll be that much more likely to keep it, and fascist feminists like Amanda Marcotte don’t want women making their own choices. They want women to make the abortion choice, even though women consistently do not get the facts about the reality of what they’re getting into with an abortion. They’re lied to about the biological facts of the child they’re carrying, they’re lied to about the risks associated with abortions, and they’re lied to about the possible after-effects of having an abortion. People like Marcotte ignore all of that, because being pro-abortion is all that matters. Marcotte and fascist feminists like her are not pro-choice. They have the choice already made for women. Have an inconvenient pregnancy? Don’t consider any other options, just have the abortion and get it over with, and no you may not get more information first!
Furthering the pro-abortion, femisogynist agenda is more important than being truthful to women. And this is supposed to be pro-woman?

Conservative, pro-life feminists like Sarah Palin tell women that they’re strong enough to have more than one choice. Fascist feminists want abortion to be their only choice. They tell women that they aren’t strong enough to handle working and having a baby, that they can’t choose both, or that they can’t handle the responsibility of planning in advance to not put themselves in a situation of needing an abortion — you know, like using birth control or not having sex if you don’t want a baby. The insinuation is that women are too stupid to be responsible for their decisions, that they can’t think things through, and they can’t handle the “inconvenience” of a child. They look at women as perpetual victims, while pretending to champion empowerment. It’s hypocritical and it’s not helpful to women.
And that’s the real difference between conservative feminism and fascist feminism. Conservative feminists understand that women are equal to men, but that they are different. Femisogynists define equality as being exactly the same as men. Conservative feminists do not live their lives defined by a rigid ideology. Fascist feminists believe that you cannot be a real woman unless you believe in “women’s issues.” (Women’s issues are things like universal health care, universal day care, taxpayer funded abortion on demand, higher minimum wage, etc.)
Feminists like Marcotte don’t fight for equality anymore, they fight to make sure that women stay entrenched forever as helpless victims who must always adhere to a radical feminist agenda. Women aren’t supposed to think for themselves or make up their own minds about issues like abortion or health care — Amanda Marcotte will make it for them! It’s interesting that Marcotte would argue that men see women as very tall children who need their choices made for them, because isn’t that exactly what Marcotte’s brand of fascist feminism does? Women aren’t supposed to make their own choices or think for themselves, they’re supposed to only make Fascist Feminist Approved choices. You’re not supposed to disagree with them on any issue at all, and if you do, you’re not a real woman.
This is the different between conservative feminism and fascist feminism. Conservative feminism is the idea that a litmus test is not needed to define women. Fascist feminism is the idea that women are too stupid to think for themselves.

“Normal” Domestic Violence in Morocco is a Crime in the United States

Aug 1, 2010

So sayeth the Superior Court of New Jersey Appellate Division.

On July 31, 2008, a couple was married by arrangement in Morocco when the bride was 17 years old. They moved to Bayonne, New Jersey, where the new husband found work as an accountant. The husband’s mother came to live with them.
On November 1st of that year, “acts of domestic abuse” commenced. The young girl finally called the police who, on November 22, 2008 (three weeks later) were still able to photograph numerous, visible bruises all over her body, including on her breasts. Her first punishment session lasted for one hour, during which time she cried all the time. This did not stop her husband. He said that he was doing this “to correct her.” The second time, he attacked both her breasts and genitalia, including pulling her pubic hair. Her vagina was very red and swollen—and that is when he administered his ultimate “pedagogical” punishment: He raped her. In addition, on a separate occasion, he slapped her face, “causing her lip to swell and bleeding to occur.” At that time, she escaped “without shoes or proper clothing” through a window and was taken to a hospital by the police.
Sadly, this kind of routine and systematic domestic super-violence is not at all unusual among many Arab and Muslim couples, or among Muslim immigrants in the West. David Ghanim, in Gender and Violence in the Middle East, Nonie Darwish in Cruel and Usual Punishment, Cassandra in Escape From an Arab Marriage, Ayaan Hirsi Ali in Infidel, as well as my own work about honor killings all confirm the normalization of daughter- and wife-battering in Muslim Third World countries. Studies also confirm a very high rate of domestic violence in countries like Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Back in Bayonne: Thereafter, the young woman (hereafter known as S.D.), filed a domestic violence complaint and a temporary restraining order was issued. She stayed with a Moroccan nurse from the hospital. However, after she discovered that she was pregnant, an imam persuaded the couple to reconcile on the condition that the domestic violence cease. That very night, after this alleged reconciliation, her husband raped her repeatedly—and then locked her in, thus depriving her of “food, (there was no refrigerator) or a phone for many hours.”


In response, she broke dishes. The defendant, (hereafter known as M.J.R.), called his wife’s parents in Morocco and demanded that they pay for her to return to Morocco. On January 22, 2009, after this phone call, the husband forced S.D. to have sex against her will again. As usual, she cried the entire time. This time, he explained that “this is according to our religion. You are my wife and I can do anything to you.”
And then, her Knight in Shining Armor took her to a travel agency to purchase a ticket. He did not do so. Instead, he took her home again and raped her—after which he collected his mother, (who was not her daughter-in-law’s friend), went to the imam, and divorced her. Yes, even though she was pregnant. And, when this poor soul tried to get a restraining order, a lower court judge was, indeed, blind.
On June 30, 2009, a New Jersey judge first “rendered an oral opinion,” then a written record which, while not available, is quoted in the Appeal decision. While S.D. had “proven by a preponderance of the evidence that the defendant had engaged in harassment, and assault … the plaintiff had not proven criminal restraint, sexual assault or criminal sexual contact.” In fact, the judge felt that this husband was “operating under his belief that (sexual contact) was consistent with his practices and was not something (these practices) prohibited.”
Last week, more than a year later, on July 23, 2010, a New Jersey appellate decision overturned this lower court decision. They rejected the lower court’s conclusion which allowed “religious custom (when it) clashed with the law” and reversed and remanded the case for a new hearing. Part of their argument is based on a wide variety of cases including the decision which outlawed the Mormon Church’s “religious” practice of polygamy and based on other cases where religious rights were brought in opposition to U.S. law, particularly in the area of employment. Writing for the bench, Judge Edith K. Payne writes:

The trial court abused its discretion by finding that domestic violence had been committed but failing to issue a final restraining order; the trial court abused its discretion by finding that defendant lacked the requisite intent to commit sexual assault and criminal sexual contact based on his religion. We are satisfied that the judge was mistaken in determining not to issue a final restraining order in this matter in order to protect plaintiff from future abuse and in dismissing plaintiff’s domestic violence complaint.
The criminal law is the criminal law and cannot be superseded by any religion’s law. Domestic violence, including sexual violence, requires a restraining order, even if the parties live apart and are divorced. In this case, S.D. now has a child by her tormentor and is still living in the United States.
Bravo to lawyers Jennifer J. Donnelly and Michelle J. McBrian of Northeast New Jersey Legal Services who argued the case for S.D. and bravo to the Superior Court of New Jersey (Appellate Division) which did so; Judge Payne wrote the decision.
Thus, this decision is not really about the more sensationalized marital rape but rather about whether, based on all the domestic violence, including the repeated, violent and non-consensual rapes, this woman may continue to need a restraining order especially since she has given birth to her ex-husband’s child.
Yes, the lower court judge was exceptionally unjust—but many of those who have written about this case have focused more on the lower court decision than on the triumph of its reversal. However, they are also right: We, the American people, are in danger in terms of creeping shariah law being respected, feared, privately turned to, and even legally upheld by our court system.

Femisogynists Shocked To Find That They’re Raising Slutty Daughters

Aug 13, 2010

There’s a new nightmare on the block for femisogynist moms. Now that they’re all grown up and settled down with teenage daughters of their own, they’re shocked to find out that the sexual empowerment they’ve been championing for decades has backfired on them. How has it backfired? Well, the femisogynist moms are finding out that sexual empowerment has really turned their daughters into slutty teens.

Canadian magazine Maclean’s examined the phenomenon in a controversial article titled “Outraged Moms, Trashy Daughters: How did those steeped in the women’s lib movement produce girls who think being a sex object is powerful?” Confused moms who label themselves as feminists can’t understand why their daughters label themselves as sex objects, sleep around, and demean themselves yet call it empowerment.
But the generation that grew up reading Our Bodies, Ourselves is most apoplectic over what they see as the unrelenting pressure on girls to be sexual, and not on their own terms. “I’m so deeply pained to see where women are today and how girls—and I mean girls—are being groomed to believe their purpose in life is to be sexual beings that please men,” says Nancy Vonk, the co-chief creative officer of Ogilvy & Mather in Toronto and the mother of a 16-year-old daughter. Vonk recalls wearing satin hot pants when she was 15. “But it was a different time,” she says. “Back then there was at least equal premium put on intellect and what was in your head. It was the opposite of ‘Go out and please men.’ ”
Kate Lloyd, the director of program and service development for the Learning Disabilities Association of Ontario and an academic coach to teenage girls, says the heightened sexual activity concerns her. “A blow job is just like shaking hands. It’s ridiculous,” she says. “But their attitude is: ‘We’re emancipated; we’re liberated; we’re in control, don’t worry.’ They see being able to hold that type of sexual behaviour over the boys as power; I see it as giving their power away.” But one 19-year-old girl sees the double standard facing girls as more complex. “If men have a lot of sex it’s a good thing, but if women have a lot of sex it’s a bad thing,” she says. “Men have a biological imperative to spread their genes. But that should not be a reason to control women.”
So basically, the 60s era of sexual empowerment was OK, because they weren’t trying to “please men”. They were taking control of their own sexuality. Wearing skanky hot pants was groovy back then. But these girls, they’re just sleeping around! They dress like whores! They’re slaves to the men!
It was just fine for the femisogynists to dress and act like sluts when they were growing up. It’s not OK for their daughters to do it, though. What’s the difference to them, though? And why are they so confused about how it happened?

ne culprit for why girls are so hyper-sexualized these days can be traced right back to the extreme sex education being taught in our schools, with the charge being led by femisogynists to keep the sex ed coming. Girls have been taught by the adults in their lives to embrace their sexuality, have been lovingly encouraged to explore their sex lives in new and innovative ways. The feminist extremists gush about the brilliance of giving their daughters vibrators, they teach middle schoolers how to have good sex. Planned Parenthood distributes sexually explicit brochures to Girl Scouts and teach 10-year-olds about anal sex. Children are inundated about sex from extremely young ages about sex, something that the femisogynists encourage, and yet they can’t understand why teenage girls are sleeping around?
Consider how one feminist blog recently praised the sex ed programs in the Netherlands. What exactly does this consist of? Pretty much exactly what you would expect.

Next year, 12-year-old Sasha explains to me, they will learn how to put a condom on a broomstick (she says this without a trace of embarrassment, just a polite smile). Across the city, nine-year-old Marcus, who lives in a beautiful 18th-century house on a canal, has been watching a cartoon showing him how to masturbate. His sister, 11, has been writing an essay on reproduction and knows that it is legal for two consenting 12-year-olds to make love. Her favourite magazine, Girls, gives advice on techniques in bed, and her parents sometimes allow her to stay up to see a baby being born on the birthing channel.
Then there is Yuri, 16, who explains to me in perfect English that “anal sex hurts at the beginning but if you persevere it can be very pleasurable.” When I ask whether he is gay, he says “no” but he has watched a documentary on the subject with his parents.
This kind of sex ed is apparently going to be compulsory for all children beginning at the age of 5 this year in the Netherlands, and this program is being praised as the kind of program we need in the United States.
When this is what we are teaching our daughters, then how can there be any surprise when they turn out to be putting that knowledge to very good use? The other problem is that we have given our children a complete lack of boundaries when it comes to sex. Take abstinence before marriage, for example. It has become socially unacceptable for parents to tell their children to wait until they’re married to have sex. It’s not the “cool” thing to do, just like it isn’t “cool” to expect your high-schoolers not to drink. They’re going to do it anyways, so might as well teach them to be safe, right? But here’s a question.
If we take away the boundary of abstinence before marriage, then what’s the next boundary? 18? OK, so maybe that’s too old. Let’s say 16. But what if the teen says they’re ready for sex at 15? What about 14? Or 13? Where do you draw the line? The reality is that there has to be a line drawn somewhere. It is inappropriate for children to be having sex, but we’ve been indoctrinating our children that sex is OK for decades.
And we’ve also been indoctrinating girls to believe in some other harmful things as well.

The femisogynists gender bigots have been trying fervently to brainwash girls that men are oppressors, that the male patriarchy is trying to keep them down, and that chivalry is sexist. Forget restricting sex to marriage — if you believe all of that, you don’t even need to restrict sex to love. Nowhere in the article did any of the mothers even mention the words “love”, “marriage” or “family.”
The fascist feminists have been engaged in serious social engineering over the past few decades, subverting marriage and family. The word “father” is also noticeably absent. Femisogynists have tried very hard to make sure that fathers no longer have any say in a girl’s sexuality. But now that some of those activists have grown up and started families of their own, they’re realizing that they maybe don’t like the results so much.
And of course, we can’t forget about abortion. Abortion opened the door to sex with no consequences. It opened the door to men being able to use women and not have to deal with the responsibility of the possibility of a child. We let the sex genie out of the bottle, and for a while, femisogynists cheered it. But it seems like some of the femisogynists moms aren’t liking what they’re seeing.
It used to be that men had to prove their love and commitment before having sex. But femisogynists instead told women that they were better than that, that having sex like men made you empowered. Decades later, we’re seeing the results of this social experiment.
It’s ironic, isn’t it, that the very people who manufactured the social experiment are now the ones complaining about how it all turned out — and, as usual, taking absolutely no responsibility for the disaster.
