“The right for either a man or a woman to stay at home and raise a family is a feminist imperative. The necessity for every woman, regardless of inclination or aptitude to follow a proscribed direction either as a homemaker or a career person, is not.”
“The right for either a man or a woman to reach their career goals, be it as a florist, nanny or CEO, is also a feminist imperative. The need for every working woman to ape her male counterparts is not.”
“Feminists do not believe that all women are caring, sharing and empathetic. They don’t believe that all men are violent. Neither do they believe that the way to correct the wrongs in a patriarchal society is to turn it into a matriarchal one.”
And then Simcox finishes by telling all us men that we can just P-O:
“So go on, people. Fight your gender wars, vilify each other, stick on labels, generalise and be hateful to your heart’s content. Just leave feminists out of it.”
I argue that the Feminist propaganda has never been more convoluted and obscure, than in the example we see in this article. It is unlikely that it will change anytime in the near future; even though Clinton and Gillard are set to rock the Leftist Feminist political scene in the most profound way history has yet to see in the modern era.
