  1. She may make a better impression by making her Intelligent argument to the inhabitants of the city Zoo..
    It is the same folks that think nothing of risking their existence by challenging a police officer, with a GUN, when they have nothing but a bad attitude and loud mouth. Not smart!

  2. It’s Marxism with an “F”. Total ideological correctness is demanded; no deviance allowed. Feminists are the Red Guards of the Cultural Revolution.

  3. Well. She’s ugly. Brain dead from the fake blonde hair dye. And yaps a lot. Yup. Fembot.

    Just what in hell do you guys mean with your inane comments? Did you listen and watch the vid or did you independently note something the rest of the world missed?
    BCer

  5. That was a hour well spent listening to something many of us strongly suspected. It was just a little disheartening to have it confirmed in a very eloquent fashion. She’s a smart lady.
    BCer is right. What the hell are some of you talking about ?

  6. I find a feminist with a brain to be very refreshing. Actually, most have brains, but their mind is made up. Anyone (male or female) who has tried to understand why so many feminists are downright hostile should hear this interview. I can see why she is reviled by them. She challenges them to act like more than spoiled brats.
    Women are from venus and men are from hell. Indeed.

  7. I did watch the whole thing and agreed with her. See my two other posts on this thread.

  8. So you think there is such a thing as a good Feminist then?
    That Feminism was ‘in the beginning’ a good movement, that it’s a good thing that women would declare that ‘as a gender’ they had a separate selfish interest from humanity as a whole?
    What a disappointment you are, lance.

  9. I have saved that link so that in the future, I can post it whenever a femi-fool needs provocation.
    At about the 1/2 way mark she made the point that modern feminist/gender studies are not real studies because they avoid the rigour of criticism thanks to officially approved sanctions on any questioning of the new religion. We see the same sort of repression in play with the “science” of climate change.

  10. I haven’t had time to go through this whole thing, but I’m familiar with CHS’ work from way, way back; I was tormenting shouty feminists with her work in 1991 (personal favourite: “so, the worst critique of Whole Stole Feminism? you’ve managed to come up with is that she gets the full name of NOW wrong. Good job. So the rest of the book is correct, then?”)
    That said, CHS tries to distinguish between “equality feminism” and “gender feminism”, where the former is the happy kind fluffy equal rights kind of feminism, and the latter is the ranty shouty hates all men kind of feminism. Completely aside from the fact that it’s debatable the former has ever actually existed, I find Mark Steyn’s aphorism about mixing a pint of dog feces with a pint of ice cream a propos.
