As I have stated before I liked and agreed with the early feminists. Why shouldn't every person become the best they can be if they are willing to work for it. Why shouldn't their choice be respected.<br />If the women in my life are happy then my life is that much the better for it. It is to my betterment to see them succeed. <br />The sad part is that a good idea has turned so radically wrong and makes a shambles of what society needed to accomplish. What we see is selfishness writ large, the creation of a dislike for each other as human beings and a dictatorial desire to control how people live their lives and think. Feminism has become anti woman in very many ways.<br />Why is the modern woman so unhappy given the feminism of today? Why does getting "free stuff" not enrich one's life?<br />Could it be that almost all of us want to feel that we have the wherewithal to accomplish great things on our own? That we worked to become what we are as a successful individual. Anything less than that makes us feel that we have not lived up to our potential. The free stuff makes us less of the person we wanted to be.<br />For most of us it is important to feel that we have given of ourselves as well. That life is not just about us. It is in the joy we feel when we see our children and grand children into capable and successful adults despite the many mistakes we made as parents.<br />It is in the knowledge that one's service to country has been of value and has kept us a free nation. It is in the small things that giving charity and aid to those personally and knowing we had the desire to do it ourselves. That we cared and did not allow a government to make that decision for us.<br />A good idea has now become the handmaiden of an increasingly intrusive government not for the betterment or freedom of mankind, but for free stuff, power and for their own benefit. It has now become the enemy of life. Women deserve better. In fact we all deserve better than this perversion of what was a good idea whose time had come and should have made every body's life better.Dennishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14962996070458991675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-20032146853753756392012-10-27T04:25:40.051-07:002012-10-27T04:25:40.051-07:00It would seem that Pro Choice is not really Pro Ch...It would seem that Pro Choice is not really Pro Choice. One can make their own decisions as long as it agrees with what the radical feminists say is the proper decision. Any thing that does not meet those criteria means one is not a real woman and actually hates women. And who said women don't make good dictators?<br />Ah to be so special that only those things that concern me are important. To be so special that my needs should be paid for by everyone else. To be so special that my life is so much more important than those who defend this country, that I should be able to dictate other's choices and only I should have rights protected by the legal system. You know of course those people who were defaced and injured by IED and other problems that exist volunteered and are just low hanging fruit anyway. Children with cancer should not be on the same level as the cancers that affect me. I am so special.<br />I am a feminist, hear me roar and others don't deserve to to have opposing opinions any more.Dennishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14962996070458991675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-61767336535912730892012-10-26T17:22:37.636-07:002012-10-26T17:22:37.636-07:00This piece makes me almost want to support Romney....This piece makes me almost want to support Romney.

Tunnel vision impairs. One's circle of friends becomes small enough to fit into a closet, the better to exclude those who don't meet their specifications.<br />Sam L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00996809377798862214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-90459320998783392572012-10-26T09:39:00.327-07:002012-10-26T09:39:00.327-07:00Thank you.

(I've been married 25 yrs.) At the end of my laugh, I would rather know that I lived for those I love and served them to have spent my life serving myself. Go, Mrs. Romney! I'd be proud to have you as our First Lady!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
