The older feminists were about equality but then came the newer feminists who are more radical and just want to beat men so the simple answer could be put like this.

Conservative Feminists=No
Young Feminists=Yes

Feminism= women who think that simply because they are women they deserve more than anyone else (men) simply because women before them were treated so poorly.

They say that they would like equal rights until it comes to stuff that us men would normally pay more for... insurance premiums is one that pops into my head.

I say that if they want equal rights I would give them the same treatment as a man who was acting like this... a good kick in the :swear: .

it all goes back to how women were treated before they were allowed to vote. Sometimes they were regarded as chattle, barley even human. Becuase of this radical treatment, radicals aggressionists of the toatally opposite but same behavior is born. Let me explain. Say someone at your work place is always callin you names and bein a real butt head, well eventually you gather some friends that feel the same way you do and they fight back, not by getting justice or being satisfied with just stopping the person, but by calling him names and degrading him. Such is with the feminists. They were treated so poorly so now instead of being happy with what freedom they have they would rather push to make men in the same boat they were in. Simalarly the black vs white thing. Everything that goes wrong in a black persons life has to be because of discrimination against them from the white evil menace. I am not a sexist or a racist. I am just tired of people causing problems becuase of mistakes people made in the past. :shy:

Militant feminazis are no different than the narrow-minded male chauvinists. Each gender is better suited to different tasks, that is fact. In the workplace, jobs should go to the people who do the job best, regardless of sex, and the wage paid should represent the job done, regardless of sex. However, I think it's just stupid to promote or hire a person to do a job based on what race or sex they happen to be, if they aren't the best person for the job.

"equal work, equal pay" says it all

As for the "ism".....

Webster's defines feminism as : " A doctrine advocating social, political, and economic rights equal to those of men."

IMHO, we're already there.

In short:Nothing.Why should they, they've got the equality they want so why not stop there.Who cares if the men are treated poorly.

Feminists? Are those the women who come from the isle of Lesbos? I saw a video about that once – it was sweet


Any given group that is given more ‘rights’, or preferential treatment (not based on ability) over another is not being treated ‘equally’.

It amazes me how work related quotas, i.e. a certain proportion of company employees must be female, of an ethnic minority etc by law, whether they deserve the job or not is deemed as promoting equality.

OK, so not everybody starts off with the same privileges or social standing – boo hoo. In the modern world if you really want to make a success of your life then it is up to you to put in the hard work necessary to achieve it, and success can be achieved.

It’s the people who expect something just because they were born that pi$$ me off. A great deal of the time the people who drone on and on about various isms are themselves propagating the situation.

The would be a lot less prejudice in the world if those people complaining about everything and anything took the giant chip off their shoulder, chilled out and just got on with life. By constantly ramming how unfair things are down everybody’s throats it just seeks to maintain and focus of the differences.

Equality is rarely equal.

Can you imagine what would happen if a load of people tried to hold a Heterosexual Rights march in a big city? Exactly

In a small Spanish town called Torredonjimeno, the major said he wanted to turn Torredonjimeno into "an international reference point" for sex equality.

How is this to be achieved?

From October on every Thursday between 9pm and 2am, men are BANNED from going out into the town. Teams of women will patrol the streets and any man caught out of the home will be fined (not much, but it’s the principle of the thing).

The idea is to make men aware of the responsibilities they have in the home.

Anybody see anything remotely ‘equal’ about this situation???????????????

Apparently, feminism is about total equality of the sexes. I agree that if you're competent at what you do then you should be compensated equally, on ability first. Unfortunately, in the world we live, the main factor in any equation is looks, both shape and size, and is applicable to both sexes. Anyone who disagrees has never looked at mainstream media. In any endeavor I've been involved in which involved physical duress ( especially heavy lifting ), the male of the species almost without exception will bear the brunt of such tasks. Is the female unable to perform physical tasks equally or is it easier to let us males beat our chests and then do the heavy work ourselves.

I believe that on this planet men use their muscles more, women use their looks more, and hardcore feminists are disgruntled women who haven't managed to use their looks to sway men to do their grunt work. My wife is 3 inches taller than me and outweighs me by at least 25 pounds. She tries but doesn't have near the determination that I have for extreme physical tasks. Is this because she is female or has she never learned to utilize her full power to perform such tasks ? All I know for sure is, every time I've moved or helped friends move, the guys have moved all the biggest heaviest things, without exception.
