No, we fully understand feminist “logic”. I think the word she was searching for was “acceptance”.
Nonetheless, I’ll take it as a compliment.
What isn’t on display is an “understanding” that we have not granted women of the dysfunctional hard left permission to speak for anyone but themselves regarding so-called “women’s issues”.
And we sure as hell haven’t authorized their men to define them.
But here’s some good old-fashioned feminist advice, anyway.
If you’re a young woman who finds herself struggling with “gender equality”, you need to acquire three things – a calendar, a map, and a mirror.
In other words, if you’re falling short of your goals given the opportunities on offer in this time and place – maybe it’s you.
Cdn Observer, Colin, Robert W., I’m with you. I have started clearly stating what I think needs to be done, e.g. disband the HRC, reduce government spending, stick to conservative principles, etc. every time the PC party call me to contribute. Let your wallet do the talking. They’ll eventually listen or go broke.
Richard Romano; the History Professor who did not display any bias and and an excellent instructor was Carmela Patrias; the retiring Professor was Alan Arthur, the remainder of Professors must, of the necessity to be kind, remain unknown. Besides; in this type of discussion what value would the opinion of an old male have anyway?

I have waited all day to be the last poster as I do not post here that often.
I am tired of our men being demonized and I have seen here today that they are tired of the same treatment,… from their bathtub mates.
I am a daughter, mother, grandmother and wife. I am nobody’s employee, before those values. Sorry feminists you loose, I win! Try it, you might like it!
I have alot more to say but really,I am busy BAKING and whoops, going to work! There cries the baby ( my daughter’s)…..Get over your selves, women!
The whole thing is ridiculous. Get real feminists,now men finally, actually HATE you.
Good job!
Thanks Kate, for shaking it up!
Sorry about all of commas in my last paragraph, but geeeez this makes me mad!
Yeah, Bec! (And don’t worry about the commas! Who noticed when thinking about the baby you were going to comfort?)
Feminists aren’t capable of getting over themselves: they are the centre of their tiny little universes. Poor them–and the rest of us who have had to seriously suffer from their hypocritical and dangerous nonsense.
I was apparently disqualified because I used to be a stripper?!
WHo knew we had such gasping puritans on the left?
I guess I won’t get any invites to the cool parties now…
Hi Louise
“There’s a difference between “working mothers” and “careers”.”
Well, I suppose it depends on the definition of career versus job, but how many men had ‘careers’, and how many just had ‘jobs’?
I’m certainly not belittling anyone who doesn’t have an office with a door (esp. since I don’t…), but the definition seems to vary quite a lot depending on what point the femin…, uh, arguer wants to make.
“feminist logic”
There is also “person of color logic” and “gay logic” and every other “logic”, thanks to the leftist assault on science and reason. But of course the pioneers were the Germans with their “Aryan logic”. But then, much of “post modern” theory originated with fascists and fascist collaborators of the 1930’s and 1940’s.
The sign taped on the door to my computer den says in big bold letters:
‘CAUTION
MEN AT WORK’
In smaller letters across the bottom, it says:
‘Women work ALL the time.
Only men have to put up signs when they work.’
Merry Christmas to all the ladies who make our lives so great.
And especially to you Kate, the lady who runs the best Syber Saloon in the Wild, Wild West.
There is no such thing as “Women’s Rights” “Gay Rights” or any other kind of collective rights. All Rights are “Individual Rights”. This idea that groups have rights is nonsense from the Socialist elite. It comes down to the divide and conquer theory. Lets divide everybody up into separate categories place cute labels on them and then give special status to one group at the expense of another. Then let them fight it out. Taking away attention from what we are really doing. Undermining Individual Rights, subverting the political process, ultimately seizing power…Thus ending democracy as it is understood to be. At the end of it. Socialism will reign supreme unopposed.

“On the other hand, my younger sister wanted to enroll in a renewable resources technology program at a community college way back in the mid-1970s and the head of the program told her it wasn’t for women. She kicked up a big stink and he relented. Her class had a goodly percentage of young women in it, thanks to her spunk, but that was after she had tried a career as a nurse and hated it.”
Nope, that was only achieved by removing/reducing the intense physical demands of the two field camps associated with that course, paricularly the winter camp. The mental and physical demands led to failure rates in excess of 50% amongst applicants pre-screened for those abilities. After modification to facillitate allow greater diviersity in graduates, the diploma is now useless.
Another thing holding us back was money. When I was in college in the sixties unless your parents were very rich going to a high priced university or medical school was out of the question. It is not like today when everyone, including those who cannot read and write, can get a free ride or at least financial assistance to attend college. I grew up before credit cards. We had to pay cash for everything including our books and clothing. Also no one was interested back then in social engineering so not only did you need the cash but you also had to be really smart and have great grades. Man, have times changed. I live in a university town and the professors are dumber than the students.
