I commend them for that

2018-11-23 20:39:16 UTC  

Right. And to me, neither in theory nor in praxis, feminism was ever about equality. They just introduced the "equality" language when it was politically conveinient.

2018-11-23 20:39:21 UTC  

The vote without the responsibility that came with it

2018-11-23 20:39:27 UTC  

Now we fix that

2018-11-23 20:39:28 UTC  

Without the duty to their nations defense

2018-11-23 20:39:42 UTC  

But that doesn't retroactively change the intent

2018-11-23 20:39:47 UTC  

I will not ascend to this linguistic manipulation, so, sorry, I have to be insistent in rejecting that label for equality.

2018-11-23 20:40:11 UTC  

FIx what?

2018-11-23 20:40:15 UTC  

What rights are women lacking?

2018-11-23 20:40:27 UTC  

@Undead Mockingbird we would equalize or remove SS

Women have more rights than men

2018-11-23 20:40:41 UTC  

Which would equalize that which has been made unequal in another sense

2018-11-23 20:40:44 UTC  

Yes.

2018-11-23 20:40:47 UTC  

But that doesn't change the core issue

2018-11-23 20:40:49 UTC  

The right to be drafted and sent to a sand dune to die

2018-11-23 20:40:50 UTC  

So you want to rescind the right of women to vote now because of the original of it even though women now serve in the military and even have died in active war zones fighting for our country?

2018-11-23 20:40:55 UTC  

I believe Cat meant that we fix that by either removing women's rights or adding to women's responsibilities.

2018-11-23 20:41:02 UTC  

Yes

2018-11-23 20:41:03 UTC  

Wait, what?

2018-11-23 20:41:08 UTC  

Exactly

2018-11-23 20:41:18 UTC  

Equal rights for equal responsibility

2018-11-23 20:41:22 UTC  

I was under the impression that we were discussing Feminism's status as an egalitarian movement

2018-11-23 20:41:29 UTC  

Eliminate the selective service or make women equally responsible to it

2018-11-23 20:41:31 UTC  

I am confused now.

2018-11-23 20:41:35 UTC  

With Suffrage seen as the first issue

2018-11-23 20:41:36 UTC  

Are we talking about feminism or what?

2018-11-23 20:41:55 UTC  

And in which case, feminism was not originally an egalitarian movement

2018-11-23 20:41:57 UTC  

I think it's clear now that feminist movements haven't been egalitarian from the outset.

2018-11-23 20:41:59 UTC  

I thought it was general equality

2018-11-23 20:42:00 UTC  

My point is that feminism was never about equality.

2018-11-23 20:42:11 UTC  

I am saying feminism resulted in many laudable things, but over time we have learned of many errors which need to be corrected.

2018-11-23 20:42:22 UTC  

Like what? Women's suffrage?

2018-11-23 20:42:25 UTC  

That wasn't the topic either

2018-11-23 20:42:31 UTC  

Women's attendance in universities?

2018-11-23 20:42:32 UTC  

No, like the expectation of military service

2018-11-23 20:42:43 UTC  

Ever heard of womansplaining?

2018-11-23 20:42:59 UTC  

How were more privileges a laudable thing when it didn't come with the responsibilities?

2018-11-23 20:43:00 UTC  

I see no down side to women attendance in universities except in regards to quotas and such

My problem with feminism is I actually want someone who is literally just a housewife to
-Teach the kids because I can't stand the idea of putting my kids through a public school
-Take care of the house
And that's pretty much it

2018-11-23 20:43:13 UTC  

We have wreaked absolute havoc on the family and the justice system.

2018-11-23 20:43:26 UTC  

So you want a slave
