Feminism

_

The figures are stark: Compared to girls, boys are less educated and more medicated. One in five men of prime working age is not working.  Men have a life expectancy five years shorter than women.  Male suicide rates start out equal to females, but steadily rise over the lifespan.

Female politicians with stereotypically feminine facial features are more likely to be Republican than Democrat, and the correlation increases the more conservative the lawmaker’s voting record…

By many objective measures the lives of women in the United States have improved over the past 35 years, yet we show that measures of subjective well-being indicate that women’s happiness has declined both absolutely and relative to men.

It’s worse to be raised by a single mother, even if you’re not poor.

… children from fatherless homes are more likely to be poor, become involved in drug and alcohol abuse, drop out of school, and suffer from health and emotional problems.  Boys are more likely to become involved in crime, and girls are more likely to become pregnant as teens.

Feminism serves men very well: they can have sex at hello and even live with their girlfriends with no responsibilities whatsoever.  It’s the women who lose… [since men are] retreating from marriage en masse, women should look in the mirror and ask themselves what role they’ve played to bring about this transformation.

Contrary to assertions in the popular press, women’s increased workforce participation has not been a major factor contributing to the rise in family income volatility.  In short, the stabilizing influence on family income of the decrease in female earnings instability is overwhelmed by the rise in men’s earnings instability.

After decades of extreme dependency on others to provide us with our most basic needs, people are learning dependency isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Such dependency leaves us vulnerable and ignorant for coping with hard times.  Therefore, people, both urban and rural, are struggling to recapture ‘pre-industrial skills’ that have been virtually lost.

Taxpayer-Funded Abortifacient Contraception:

 The worst part of the obsession with sluthood?  The harm to women.  For starters, one in five women currently have herpes.  Rates of chlamydia among women have also skyrocketed, with almost three times as many women infected as men. HPV, a disease which can cause cancer, is so prevalent now that at least half of all sexually active adults have been diagnosed with it at some point.  According to the CDC, of the 12,000 women who get cervical cancer each year, almost all of them are HPV-related.  The effects are even worse on younger girls.  Sixty-three percent of teens who have sex wish they didn’t. The Heritage Foundation did a study and found that 8,000 teenagers are infected with an STD daily.

One would think that a prominent [leftist] feminist like [Naomi] Wolf would appreciate a woman promoting the strongest possible path to female strength and paying particular tribute to the tough, courageous women of our Armed Forces.  But feminists of the left aren’t about female empowerment.  If they were, they would devote more time and passion denouncing, say, Islam’s misogyny, female genital mutilation, and honor killings; instead, they are more focused on the politics of personal destruction of female conservative politicians like Sarah Palin or Michelle Bachmann, who more successfully embody the have-it-all goal of feminism than [leftist feminists]…

Gender Pay Equity:

 [Even] Back during the evil George W. Bush administration…

[Among never-married single men & women working full time, ages 40-65] the men earned only 85% of what the women earn[ed]…  [and] A part-time working woman ma[de] $1.10 for every dollar made by her male counterpart.

 and…

There is no evidence that women are routinely paid a fraction of what men make for the same work, or that discrimination drives statistical differences between men and women’s earnings.

There Is No Male-Female Wage Gap

A study of single, childless urban workers between the ages of 22 and 30 found that women earned 8% more than men.

Research shows that the [wage] gap arises out of a multitude of factors that reflect the individual PREFERENCES of men and women, such as occupational choice, time spent at work, and non-wage benefits, among others.

Many intellectuals of our time have done exactly the same thing with the sexual revolution.  They don’t want to see that the fallout from that revolution has broken up families, ruined many lives, and flooded the country with sexually transmitted diseases old and new.  They resolutely shut their eyes to the way it has coarsened our culture and cheapened our relationships.”
