Puerilities

 
STARTING WITH THIS ENTRY, I will post statements by history’s famous feminists on a regular basis. These false or misleading appraisals of human nature, biological fact, spiritual truths, and common sense take the breath away. Feminism is rife with ridiculous assertions. I call these statements “puerilities” because they are so often child-like.
Here is the psychologically unstable Charlotte Perkins Gilman writing in The Man-Made World: Our Androcentric Culture, published [...]

Hug for a Feminazi

 
BJH writes:
Having read your blog, I am going to go out and find the biggest, hairy-leggiest feminazi I can and give her a big old hug. I am then going to fall to my knees and thank the “higher power” that I have grown up during a time when antiquated views like yours are in the minority.

Herstory is History

 
Where is Mary Daly now? The outrageous feminist “theologian” died earlier this week and one can only breathe a sigh of relief that the world will no longer be perturbed and curdled, at least in person, by the brainless and indigestible wit of this man-hating, child-eating icon, a woman who said things such as:
If God is male, [...]

A Vindication of the Sensibility of Woman

In 1792, Mary Wollstonecraft wrote her now famous treatise A Vindication of the Rights of Woman, in which she strenuously argued for the education of women. If the minds of women were cultivated, they would be less likely to be “blown about by every momentary gust of feeling.” They would care less about the trivialities of fashion and [...]

Emmie’s Adventure

 
A Field Guide to Evil would be handy sometimes, wouldn’t it? It could offer graphics that look like geological cross-sections, with their observable layers of rock. Like the earth, evil is multilayered, extending into the past and composed of radically different materials.
Here is a perfect example of what I mean.
Lisa Belkin of the New York Times in her Adventures in Parenting series (take [...]

Feminism, Technology and Manhood

 
Fitzgerald writes:
Your broadsides against feminism, in all it’s many forms, have been both gratifying and enlightening. As a white, male professional, I must be careful at all times within professional arenas to mind what I say to avoid the backlash of the feminist apparatchiks that haunt the corridors of companies today, especially in Human Resource departments [...]

Futile Wars and Our Feminized Military

 
Laurence B. writes:
I’d really like to blow some steam off about the Army. I should first include some context: I am from a military family—my grandfather flew in three wars and my father was in the last class at the Air Force Academy that was all-male.

Married to a Wimp

 
Dear Thinking Housewife,
Men are not taught how to be men nowadays. What can I do about the fact that my husband is such a girl?

Dear Anonymous,
I’m sorry, Anonymous, this question makes me mad. Not mad at you, but mad at this. In many ways, the debate over marriage is over, isn’t it? Women are [...]

The Feminization of Race

 
There have been heated discussions at this site about race in recent days. Some women find this puzzling. Isn’t this website largely about the defense of home and family? What does race have to do with it? The truth is, the issue of race is related to domestic concerns and these discussions are by no means accidental. They are consistent [...]

How Sexual Liberation Can be Reversed

 
JOEL writes:
I’m not sure how conservatives, such as yourself, can object to teen pregnancies, such as Bristol Palin’s. While I agree that single-motherhood is horribly destructive to the fabric of society, I cannot see how preaching and pontificating makes any difference in its inexorable march. As the average age of first marriage steadily increases, what [...]

Can Liberty Survive Feminism?

 
Lawrence Auster writes here:
It appears to be the case that if a society gives equal political rights to women, then over time there will inevitably be an expectation of equal political outcomes for women. How is this dynamic to be forestalled? By stating up front, by establishing it as a fundamental principle of the society, [...]

The Despised Stewardess

 
 
 
Stewardesses are representative of all that was evil in our past. Just look at ‘em. Forget the smiles, the waves, the trim beauty. They are desperately unhappy, the aeronautical equivalent of sex slaves.
In her latest encomium to feminism, which was discussed here, Gail Collins singles out stewardesses, and the employment standards of their bosses, for special censure. Before feminist [...]

Society Collapses and Feminists Rush to Take Credit

 

 
 
Since the 1960s, women have made enormous strides. It’s amazing. They have unhappier marriages, more divorce, about half as many children if they’re college-educated, less free time, fatter children, dumber children, more psychologically disturbed children, lonelier lives, messier homes, and husbands who often earn less money than they do. Is this what Gail Collins means by amazing in her latest encomium to feminist progress, When [...]

The Conservative Man Holds the Purse

 

    

/td>

 
Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, of Minnesota, was the subject of a profile yesterday in the New York Times. She is an up-and-coming Republican star.  In her recent statements on health care reform, she has questioned the Constitutional authority for a federal mandate on health insurance. Bachmann, who is pretty and a frequent guest on cable news shows, has been accused of spreading [...]

The Queen Calls for a Whipping

 
Queen Victoria was once the most powerful woman in the world. In all of history, there has been no single woman more powerful than the little queen. Given her position, Victoria must have believed women were capable of ruling. She must have believed they should  be in power.
Then why did the Queen say this in 1870?
“I am most [...]
