Dear Suse,

My parents as you know, arrived in this country with barely
the clothes on their backs. They worked hard and established
a life here. My husband and I have also always been a
team.

A one size fits all approach to this topic however -
doesn't fit.
It's complexity means that each of us will have to
find the meaning
and relevance that it has in our own lives.

However there is also no reason that we can't be civil
in our discussion, even though some of us may have
differing opinions. That's why it is also great to read the
posts of RObert, Hassie, Rectub, to name just a few -
who present other times, and other perspectives, in this
discussion.

I don't have anything else to add really.
Except that I look forward to more discussions on another
thread. I've said everything I wanted to on this one.

Cheers.

Dear Albie,

How rude!

I would have either blown you a kiss (as I do
when I get wolf-whistles), or given you a great
big smile and said,
"Thank You."

Feminism is as feminism does.

When feminists are challenged on their vile misandry, they go all vague about 'eguality'. When that fails there is always personal attack and abuse with the angry walk-out to follow.

This is feminism,

Is there any wonder that young women flee from these nasty, egocentric, neurotic old crones of feminists?

Before feminists go all vague, that IS the feminism of the selfish, mercenary educated middle class feminists who drive women's policy in Australia. They have ridden the guvvy gravy train for decades. They do not give a hoot for women generally, the common herd and they certainly do not represent them.

It is time that the main political parties woke up to them. Abbott for example was as badly advised as past Labor leaders by feminists in his own party and in the federal bureaucracy , although in Labor the handbag hit squad reign supreme and still do. In the rarefied atmosphere of Canberra politicians seem to be unaware of the credibility gap between them and the rest of Australia.

Spot the typo, 'eguality' should be 'equality'.

Foxy,
You're very fortunate to have the required looks. The feminists I encounter don't deserve more than a mongrel growl. :-)
