Did you think the feminists were supposed to pay you with sex for supporting their ideals?
That if you do or say something a woman likes, you're entitled to a shag?
And if she doesn't pay up, she's a b***h?
Is that your thought process? Really?
:roll:

I think most of you were slapped around by your Mom or other dominant female and you have deep seated anger towards women.I don't carp all day about the men who abused me,if you don't like women you do have an alternative:wink: Or just get a dolly,they never talk back(if they do you are in real trouble).
I am pretty traditional in some ways,stay at home mom,did home cooking ,canning had a great garden.
The extreme feminists are on one end of the spectrum,you are on the other.There is middle ground.

Do what you need to do to be happy, without harming anyone else or telling them how to live. Treat everyone the same. If that makes you happy, what does feminism even matter? It's simply a movement toward equality, if anyone makes more of it than that, they're wrong. True feminism isn't about being anti-male or anything like that, though I realize there are some radicals out there who do make it that. It's really about women having as much voice, freedom and ability to decide about their own lives as men. Simple, right?

I don't think that believing in equal rights scores many points for men as far as romance goes but I think women like it when a man believes in female superiority.

I have my own job, my own apartment, my own car, my own bank account, and even my own PS3.

My personal "feminism" is that anyone who tries to deny me equal access to resources, based on nothing more than the presence of my vagina, deserves a steel-toed boot where the proverbial sun doesn't shine. Beyond that, I don't require "special treatment," I just need you to stay out of my face and let me live my life.

As for certain Western men blaming "feminism" for all of their woes, allow me to quote Frank Zappa: “If you end up with a boring miserable life because you listened to your mom, your dad, your teacher, your priest, or some guy on television telling you how to do your s***, then you deserve it.”

And that pretty much goes for ANY powder puff who wants to blame their personal unhappiness/lack of success on "society." I don't "owe" anybody anything, and they don't "owe" me anything either. My existence got much easier once I embraced that little fact.

I don't think that certain Western men blame Feminism for all of their woes--mostly just for their lack of access to p****.

A very good philosophy to follow indeed.

Men teach woman how to "be" in order to succeed too. It is not one gender and not the other. I know you're specifically addressing feminism, but I find any adult trying to manipulate how a child "is" to be equally tiresome.
I'm not sure I know what specific aspects of feminism you're referring to, though. Do you mean lying to boys about what is expected of them in society or by women in particular, or both?

I'm pretty sure he means both. I guess it's hard for Amurcan women in general to understand what Swedish society and gender relations are actually like. It's not just Sweden, but in Finland and Iceland too. IDK about Norway or Denmark, though. But what I suspect is that SWEDISH feminists are lying to boys in order to conduct a social experiment that clearly is not improving their society, but making it even more confusing.

I don't really know much about feminism in Sweden. I checked wikipedia and got the "Femenist Initiative." Seems to be quiet a political force. I wouldn't want to be caught up in a social experiment.

Actually, I did. What leads to a richer love life is finding people who are innately attracted to you just for being YOU. A man who asserts that women are superior is going to be viewed by women as a "nice guy".....IOW: A doormat with low self-esteem and no self-respect.

But you never believed that woman are superior. For the magic to work you have to believe.

As long as we live in a patriarchal society i will continue to wear the pants in the family but we are now in a transitional period.
