US Feminism =
female dominance, male
bashing, double standards
"Woman is a violent and uncontrolled animal... If you allow them to achieve complete equality with men, do you think they will be easier to live with? Not at all. Once they have achieved equality, they will be your masters."
- Cato the
Elder
Contrary to what its proponents claim, feminism
in the US is not about
equality between men and women, but about perpetuating
female-dominance, male
bashing, and double standards.
Their double
standards are
so glaringly obvious that pointing them out is like shooting fish in a
barrel,
yet few have the guts to do so.
Here are
some great clips of comedians making fun of these double standards on
stage in
a revealing and funny manner:
I love the
part near the end
where the comedian says that
when women
claim it's unfair that they get paid less for doing the same job, he
says
"Well it's the same
fucked up reason why when we're on the Titanic,
the women and children get to go first while we men have to remain
onboard a
sinking ship! Or why in a hostage situation, they always negotiate the
women
and children to be released first! Hey, bullets hurt me too! Or when
there's a
burning house, and the man has to be the one running back in to save
others and
risk his life! WHERE ARE THE FEMINISTS IN THOSE SITUATIONS? THEY'RE
NEVER
THERE!"
So true! Men
in the
Personally, I have no problem with equality between the sexes, but
these modern
feminists who dominate pop culture, political correctness and the
media, assert
their dominance and superiority over men, using "equality" as an
excuse and cover. You can see this both in the media and in
real
life.
In the media, popular talk shows like Oprah,
Dr. Phil, and
And of course, on TV sitcoms, wives are often portrayed as smarter than
their husbands, and always right during an argument.
For example, on
Home Improvement,
Tim Allen is portrayed as immature, impulsive,
ignorant and needs to be leveled by his wife Jill. Every time
they have a
disagreement, Jill is proven right in the end, and Tim apologizes,
acknowledging the error of his ways. The same scenario is
depicted on the
sitcom King of Queens,
as well.
It’s
as if the
whole sitcom TV series is preaching some twisted form of new morality
of right
and wrong principles that men need to be emasculated and submit to
female
dominance. It’s a very one-sided principle that
teaches that men are
ALWAYS wrong when they argue with women. Ick.
I’d rather get my
moral lessons from the old Aesop’s Fables, which are far more
wholesome and do
not degrade a whole gender over the other, than feminist mass media
sitcoms. There’s no way they’re
brainwashing me with such twisted values,
for I am immune to brainwashing!
The
most
horrible
example of this that I saw in Home
Improvement was in the episode
where
Jill demanded that Tim get a vasectomy (have his genitals surgically
altered so
as not to produce any fertile sperm during intercourse) done so that
they could
enjoy a normal sex life without the risk of Jill getting pregnant
again.
At first, Tim resisted, lamenting his loss of
“manhood” from such an operation,
and even became the butt of jokes from others about it. But
as in every
episode, he eventually gave in at the end and agreed to have the
operation.
In
real life,
a
real man wouldn’t have given in like that. But the
wimpy emasculated
feminist puppet Tim Allen character did. Somehow, the
scriptwriters of
the show were insinuating that men need to obey every wish of their
woman, even
if it means getting a vasectomy against their wishes!!!!! So
in other
words, a man’s sexual organs are owned by his woman
too! I can’t believe
that this episode didn’t cause an outrage. If there
were a Men’s Rights
Movement, I’m sure it would have though.
In
any case,
if
that episode is a sign of the “wave of the future”
in
Even on the radio, national hosts such as Delilah (www.radiodelilah.com)
also take this
tone of male-bashing and promoting female superiority. For
example,
Delilah loves reading quotes from relationship counselors and
psychologists
that claim "The common
denominator in successful relationships, is that
the male partner listens to his wife."
Now, there is nothing
wrong with listening to your partner in a relationship, as it's a good
thing to
understand each other. But this is totally one-sided, as
there is no
mention of suggesting that the woman also listen to her husband. (a bit
fishy
don't you think?) A form of male subservience is being
proselytized here,
that the man, to be a good man, must put the woman's needs above his
own.
In essence, he lives to please her, and to keep the relationship stable
and
healthy, he must acknowledge that. This is definitely a
propagation of
female rulership.
Likewise, in the family of one of my ex-girlfriend's, the same female
superiority values were propagated. (But of course, since my
ex-girlfriend's
mom was a single mother, this was even more so) I was
indoctrinated by
her mother and her mother's friends that "a good man must take care of
the
woman's needs" which I have no problem with, except that it was
one-sided,
as there was no mention of the woman taking care of the man's needs
too.
One time, when I complained about feeling like I was sacrificing all my
needs
for her, and that our life was all centered around her, my
ex-girlfriend's
sister remarked, "That's the way it should be" implying that the
relationship should revolve completely around the female partner.
Similarly, in a job I had where I marketing basement finishing systems,
while
talking to couples who were prospective clients, the man would point to
his
wife and tell me, "Well she's
the boss". Since when
is
the wife always the boss, I wonder.
And
whatever
happened to the feminist ideal that preached equality? This
is clearly
dominance, not equality. Any honest person can see that,
though few are
willing to complain about it in the
Also,
among
the
feminist spokespeople, especially those who dominate college
curriculum, there
is a movement to also rewrite history to glorify women, and even a
movement in
religion to worship the Goddess, rather than God, and even to exclaim
"Oh
my Goddess!" rather than "Oh my God!"
The reason these feminists who dominate pop culture, the media, and
political
correctness, are termed "feminazis" by their critics (whose forbidden
views you can't hear on TV or in the mainstream media, only on the
internet or
abroad) is because these folks are like "Nazis" in the sense that
they seek to dominate others and maybe even the world, and they do not
tolerate
any disagreement or open discussion of their values of female
superiority. Anyone who challenges their views or disagrees
is
automatically labeled as "chauvinist pigs" and backwards, a product
of a formerly oppressive culture against women. Thus, you
either
assimilate into their values of female superiority, or you become
vilified.
One
of my
readers
vociferated:
“American
feminists love to hide behind a false facade by
pretending to "defend the rights of oppressed women". But in
reality it's just a smoke screen to obscure their real intentions which
are
much more sinister. Their goal is to proclaim their superiority over
men,
deprive men of all their rights, confiscate all their money, steal all
their
property and ultimately rule over them. Since it's difficult for most
women to
accomplish their objectives with aggression, they seek to distract
their
opponent with BS----otherwise known as feminism. So when you
hear a
feminist feign concern for oppressed women don't be so quick to
sympathize.
There's a hidden agenda behind her words of compassion. Feminists are
not
genuine or sincere. They're selfish phonies who'll say anything to get
their
way.”
And
an
immigrant observed:
“Ask
any non-brainwashed woman and you will find their disgust of
the irony. Thanks to the feminist movement, they can now work 9-5
instead of
sit home, do nothing; romance and chivalry is gone as the woman is now
"strong" and could care less about any "stupid man," etc.
Obviously any US-media consumer will relate to the "stupid man" who
is always portrayed as less intelligent, more amoral, non-deserving,
etc. I
recently saw a funny one in an average feminist college textbook- men
are only
physically stronger because they have forced women to nurture the young
while
they have developed physical power over time by physical labor. They
even
included some B.S. charts and graphs. One must take heed and only
attend US
colleges if he is pursuing a science degree. Otherwise he will be used
by the
instrument of the new liberals- feminists, PC drones, and the
like...”
As to
how this
all came to be, one internet forum poster explained:
http://www.russia.com/forums/showthread.php?t=25267
“Women
can get away with denigrating men because they have
powerful political organizations that have a lot of influence in
government.
And men cannot do the same against women because they don't organize
their
politics along gender-lines. There are no politically powerful men's
organizations whose purpose is to speak exclusively for the interests
of men.
I suppose this is one of the dangers of democracy. People can organize
themselves along gender lines, sectarian lines, or tribal lines and try
to
deprive each other of rights and privileges.
The Constitution is supposed to prevent this kind of thing. But the
Constitution is only as good as the politicians who write it. Perhaps
the
This brand of

Here's a
simple obvious example. If a man says in any public
situation in the
But
if he said publicly "Women are
smarter than
men", the men would passively
tolerate it while the women would smirk
and grin and think "It's nice that he pays us the proper respect where
it's due, if only more men would too" and thus the statement would be
accepted.
If
that's not a double standard, then I don't know what
is. There are many such examples that depict the unfairness of feminism
of
course, but this is just one of the simplest and most obvious ones. I
wonder how
American adult women, who are basically
intelligent and educated, not see the unfairness in that?
Marty
Nemko,
author,
radio show host, and co-president of NOM (National
Organization for Men, www.orgformen.org)
provides examples of how quotes of public attacks on men were allowed,
but not
on women:
http://www.martynemko.com/pub/articles/nom700.shtm
“Another
example of the New Double Standard: Leading women’s
advocates have, with little substantiation, made statements about men
that
never would be tolerated if said about women:
“As
far as I'm concerned, men are the product of a damaged
gene.” (Germaine Greer, in in an invited address at the
Alert! Conference.)
"All men
are rapists and that's all they are." (Marilyn
French, author of the feminist classic, The Women’s Room, in
a People magazine
interview.)
"I believe
that women have a capacity for understanding and
compassion which a man structurally does not have, does not have it
because he
cannot have it. He's just incapable of it." (Former congresswoman
Barbara
Jordan)
None of
those leaders suffered significant reprisals. In contrast,
consider what happened when Harvard president, Lawrence Summers, in an
internal
brainstorming meeting, in response to a request to be provocative,
merely
hypothesized, with multiple qualifications, that innate differences
might
partly explain why more men are in science. That statement,
especially
when opined in a private meeting, is not only less devastating to women
than
the above statements are to men, substantial research supports
Summers’
hypothesis. Yet, a national firestorm led by NOW ensued
demanding
Summers’ firing, and Harvard’s 762-member Faculty
of Arts and Sciences issued an
unprecedented and career-devastating vote of lack of confidence in
Summers.
This
establishes a new double standard: you can, without reprisal,
viciously denigrate men without substantiation but dare you make a
milder
statement about women, your career is eviscerated. That double standard
will
make academics, leaders, and the media think 10 times before saying
something
negative about a woman, but not about a man. That will immeasurably
hurt how
men are treated today, and in future generations.”
As
you can
see,
that's an example of why I dislike the "politically correct movement"
for it places its agenda (in this case, feminism and male-bashing) over
the
truth, while I prefer the truth over what's politically correct.
Likewise,
a
hiring manager can say that he wants a female for a position because
females
are more empathetic, kind, and understanding, but he can't say
that he
wants a male for a position because men are stronger and more rational,
or else
he is finished. The "feminazis" would eliminate such a person
for saying that, hence what I said earlier about intolerance and double
standards. Nemko points this out well in an article:
http://www.martynemko.com/pub/articles/indefenseofmen.shtm
Or even
worse, imagine if a feminist overheard a male manager
saying,
“I
prefer to hire men because they’re less emotional most of the
month and dramatically so the rest of the time. I also prefer to hire
men
because they devote more time to their careers. More women want to work
shorter
hours so they can have enough time for family, friends, and so on. Yet
another
reason I like to hire men is that women, on average, are more
devious.
Guys are more direct; you’re more likely to know where you
stand.” Even though
there is a reasonable basis for that manager’s assertions, he
would be fired
faster than you could say, “sex
discrimination.”
Yet if that
same manager were to say, “I prefer to hire women
because they’re more interpersonally sensitive and better
team builders,” that
equally gender-generalizing statement would likely be met, not with a
lawsuit,
but with praise. There is a new double-standard. People, the media, and
the
colleges can attack men but not women.”
And
if a woman
acts
rude or inconsiderate to a man, it is acceptable because she is a
woman, but if
a man does that to a woman, it is an unpardonable sin. Also,
it is not a
crime for a woman to hit a man, but it is for a man to hit a
woman. Such
examples of double-standards are among many.
In
response to
my
question as to why American women tend to be the least friendly in the
world,
here is what one man had to say:
“>Second,

denial of what is in the mirror! Oprah has worked hard to try
to reverse
that body shape and image in the last year, and finally she is looking
like she
wanted to in the first place! She finally figured out men do
not find fat
women attractive and she lost most of the excess
poundage. But now
she has had to eat her words and tell women her position
was wrong
and they were lying to themselves (mainly because Dr
Phil told her
she was wrong and showed her why!). They will not feel happy weighing
300
pounds and downing bon bon's to ease the pain.
They have come a long way as far as equal pay and rights, but they have
also
taken a giant leap backwards as far as how they got there and their
idea of how
a real woman should act.”
What
these
feminists and feminazis don't realize is that they are actually an odd
quirk in
the world. The rest of the world sees them
as unnatural,
anti-feminine, and anti-men; and that includes foreign women as
well.
They may delude themselves into thinking that the rest of the world
admires
them as a progressive liberation movement, but in reality they
are perceived
as haters of their own femininity. One reader noted:
