There is not one single thread in this index about feminism.
Where have all the feminists gone?
Why?
(Also what are the important works to read if one is interested in learning more about this subject?)
To the mall to go shopping because they’re power is in the sexual subordination of the male.
Feminism was bought out by a conspiring capitalism which requires for its functioning market the conflict between genders. The woman’s sense of power is sold to her through consumerism just as the man’s sense of power is bought to impress the woman. Both the woman and man are pitted against each other while the market wins, laughing all the way.
See? Hurry up, you better buy some Axe body spray and make seventy-grand a year or no woman will like you. If you are a woman, you better get some fake tits and wear expensive clothing, or no man will like you.
Basically here is what happened. When technology increased to the point where physical stature no longer determined economic progress, woman felt entitled to the same respect and importance as the male because she could perform the same tasks. Then there came a problem. The male no longer felt as important as he once did because the woman was now equal in the work force. He sought revenge. Sexual revenge. The woman was then objectified as a sex object by the male, but she was too stupid to realize it (enter “The Man Show”). The gender war begins and is mediated through the classes. Man and woman are no longer on the same team…they are competing. They are buying esteem, romance, status, morals, virtue. Its no longer “what you can do” but “what you own” that wins you a mate.
Screw this, I’m going to Mexico and I will have five wives. We will live in a small community far away from civilization. We will eat avacados and hot peppers and chicken. We will make our clothing. But I will buy a TV so we can watch the shit go down in flames.
Opponents of Radical Feminism created a Strawman of sorts, in that they vastly over estimated the influence of Radical Feminists.
Something akin to what Detrop argues, Laissez Faire Democracy, by its very nature, mollifies extreme views to make them more palatable for the consuming public. Something like Opportunity Feminism says, in effect, that men and women are not truly equal in every respect, but, on an individual basis, equality of opportunity allows for individuals (regardless of gender) to pursue those goals for which they possess some talent.
No doubt some women would make great CEO’s, just as some men might make great Kindergarten teachers. The problem is that Radical Feminism, in certain regards, promotes either a complete divorce from, or overhaul of, the system as it exists today. This did not work for the Communists, the Black Panthers, various Religous Fundamentalists, and so on. People like to be comfortable, ergo, they will only accomodate those schemes which present little challenge to their own sense of stability.

If I understand your “ideas factory” correctly, once a group becomes involved with the political/legislative process proper, they are no longer just an “ideas factory”. And trust me, lobbying for the implementation of ideas is part and parcel the American political process. In doing so, they have become co-opted.
Well, it could be possible that Muslim intellectuals are making contributions, but it could very well be that their message, whatever it is, is very difficult to find, for a variety of reasons.
What the hell are you talking about?
They sell like 4 different versions in my local waterstones, and thats a crappy little one…

I have asked this question many times!
When I was a teenager it was still the era where you could not hold a door for a woman without meeting some scorn. I kid you not.
Then, I noticed a media fascination with porn and strippers, during the 90s, that I believe beat feminist thoughts to death.
I’m not entirely sure, but it could be that woman really are shallow beings that want to use sexuality to have an easy, and very sneaky, ride through life.
It could also be that many women find that acting like the man in the gray flannel suit is not fun. So, acting sexy is a preferred and easier state. Weirdly, feminism made it fairly safe to act whorish.
The communist used to say that the female under capitalism is nothing but a whore that is bought and sold by the mostly male capitalist. Perhaps market forces are too tempting for many women and the desire to be purchased is just too great, and too good a deal, in their own capitalist mind-set.
It could be that males in the media decided to wage a war to win back their casting couch rights and failed starlet harems, and simply won, but then why they won is the question.
Howard Stern (a sexually oriented media personality), who always made me think of the above, invites women on his show, that will show up for free, and he does things like makes them strip, throw slices of meat on their ass, and other classically humiliating things (not that meat on an ass is a classic). They do it with a smile though, so I‘m not sure it‘s humiliating.
At first, I saw Stern as the classic ugly Jew that hates women that he can’t have, while seeing all other non-Jewish women as whores (because they’re not Jewish), and has taken the typical Jewish pornographer role. If you think all of that is harsh it’s not, because I have heard him talk about the fact that he’s a Jew regularly, mention that you don’t see nice Jewish girls on his show, and once when confronted by a Jewish girl taking her clothes off he asked her if she was born of a Jewish woman, and she said that her dad was the Jewish one. He laughed and “hmmmed†because that means that she really wasn’t Jewish, so in his mind that explained it.
Anyway, all of that stuff used to make me hate him until I realized that no matter what, those girls WANT to come on his show knowing that he was going to do those things. So, no matter his beliefs, he’s free and clear in my opinion.
Usually the women have some type of website or something that they’re promoting, but not always. The bottom line is that some women are willing to do anything to get what they want in an easy seemingly dishonorable way.
Now, we could say that they tend towards a poor character, but then I have to remind myself that women do not have any historical precedent or training in ethical and honorable conduct. Men are raised on a multitude of different stories that train them about pride, honor, and achievement, and women do not. So, it could be the case that women are ill prepared psychologically to handle feminism, which is of course a wacky irony.
Hey detrop!
I just read your above post.
Great analysis!
Yes, it can most certainly be asserted that the female is just an ignorant procreation machine.
I mean for a forty-five second window of pleasure, a man will give up his morals, ethics, principles, self-esteem, job, home, family, pension, investments, belongings, or life.
The fact that most males are such tools that women take advantage of their limited capacities, definitely makes females “dumb” and “inferior”.
I don’t think that that’s a correct view of males.
Men tend to be trusting and friendly with a good sense of fun.
Men want to have sex because it’s fun and feels good, which it true. It’s odd to have turn fun into a secret plot for personal gain. That speaks to a certain emptiness.
Meanwhile, I don’t think that it makes one better to be able to take advantage of another.
Well, it’s good that in your delusion you can find time to appreciate your own aberrant view of things, but I am leaning towards certain historically proven facts.
Males are tools because they are preoccupied with their penis. The tactile sensations of the penis will override sensibilities and logic.
Female sexual potency far exceeds the males, and they are capable of consistently sustaining higher levels of pleasure and duration, with or without a male. (males are jealous of this trait)
If you are such a fool as to open yourself up to the wiles of female, and give up your “hard earned ******”, simply for the 45 seconds of pleasure, then you have asked for the treatment you deservedly receive.
2 Cases in point:
I know two strippers personally, known them both for a long time. “Barbie” works for a major credit card company, making just under six figures - she makes an extra 2500 per weekend because she is aware that she has a magnificent physique, and men will starve their families for a lap dance from her. She has implicitly stated this with laughing. She has no interest in being married, a male is of no use to her.
“Summer” is an anthropologist, makes a little less than “Barbie” and averages the same amount per weekend, and has also made it clear that she can control any male by entertaining his shaft impulse. Neither does she see the benefit of marriage.
I do not contend with either of them about their stance towards males or marriage.
Trust is something that is built upon within the defined structure of a relationship. If you are asserting that men are emotionally juvenile as to hand it out freely, again, they are tools and reap what they sow.
This “taking advantage of another” has been known since the dawn of time between males and females. That the greatest majority of males have never learned the lesson, further proves their “toolness”.

Your view is like something proposed by a comedian.
Males invented almost every bit of technology on the planet and if they did all of this while mesmerized by their penis then that’s true genius.
Think first.
What are you talking about?
This:
What didn’t you like about that?
Basically, I’m saying that I have no clear answer to the problem, and am giving some of my perceptions.
LOL. Can you say “expressions of petty male ego”.
Most technological advances come in the form of phallic representations. Well that, and the blatant desire to further apathy.
That’s quite a leap, based on erroneous Freudian theory.
So, how much RAM does your cock have?
