you talk about how you are proud of 60s feminist. u did not realize that 60s feminists were hated. and the picture below show the kind of woman the men used as evident for why women should not have careers. you call yourself a coder. I wonder if you would call yourself an anti-feminist coder in the 50s [img]http://3.bp..com/_hek7hKOiBvY/TFuYDmHns1I/AAAAAAAAADA/LdX7Qp0X_tg/s320/01324.jpg[/img] |

when a man says "get back to the kitchen" they are saying it thanks to the many women anti-feminists who said that they enjoyed being in the kitchen. as a result women who didn't were all of a sudden the radical women who should be hated. |

99cent: when a man says "get back to the kitchen" the point is this... many women are fine with traditional gender roles... it is ok if you want to be the one raking in the money while your husband washes the dishes. To each his own. |

biolabee: at least she/he has not targeted you. wonder why "insult" is your new word of the day. even posting a smiley face has become an insult to this weenie. |

fellis: For heaven's sake, did nobody see my questions? Abi am I not important like Ijoan? The dynamics for every couple is different. Some do it 50:50, some like it 70:30, some like it 20:80... there is no one-size fits all formular. To each his own. |

Online feminist activists scored an impressive victory on Tuesday when Facebook formally responded to the joint coalition between Women, Action & the Media, Everyday Sexism, and activist Soraya Chemaly, requesting that Facebook “take concrete, effective action to end gender-based hate speech on its site.” The social media effort resulted in over 60,000 tweets and 5,000 emails to advertisers, imploring them to boycott Facebook unless Facebook agreed to change their policies around images and language of gender-based violence and hate speech. For all intents and purposes, the campaign seems to have worked, as Facebook made a public statement agreeing to review and update their guidelines on appropriate content and a vow to work directly with coalition of feminist activists who created this campaign, among other specifics. This response is proof of the power that grassroots activist efforts have. Online feminists have scored similar victories in their collective response to last year’s debacle in which the Susan G. Komen Foundation announced plans to defund Planned Parenthood, a decision they quickly reversed in light of fierce online backlash, much of which was led by feminist activists. Facebook’s commitment to change is another feather in the cap of online feminists. |

fellis: I just have one question for the men on this thread saying they believe ingender equality. If she has the strength to! I would say go for it! Nothing is stopping you... fellis: I will bear a compound name because it's my choice and he can make any decision concerning that as he pleases! |

fellis: I just have one question for the men on this thread saying they believe ingender equality. Reason why all of the dudes here ignore the paraphrased question is because we don't believe in inequality in whatever form. You asked men who believe in gender inequality to respond, none gave you a response so that should be an answer to your ridiculous question. By the way, marriage is not an organization or a form of government. I don't think the role of men in the household is that of the ''leader'' as you used but the head or guardian. They are two different entities and meaning differently |
Re: We Should All Be Feminists- Chimamanda Adichie by Nobody: 1:48am On Jun 30, 2013 |
davidylan: So you are saying women can lead their husbands in the house? Good, thanks for answering. Assuming a woman leads a man in his house do you think the man will be respected by his peers or do you think he will be ridiculed and reffered as an effeminate man for letting his wife lead him? Let's assume the couple lives in Africa. I am waiting for biola and toshmann to answer before I mention the reason why I asked. |

druid06: Okay o, sorry. Let me rephrase the question, do you believe women can be head of the family just like men? |

biolabee: Deceitful sad black colored men living in america and envious of lighter skinned dudes with swag cursing feminist and poor people in the ghetto should get down from their high horse. |

99cent: IJOAN, I see you are proud to be the anti-feminist hero. the person woman haters will point out as proof that women don't want rights. nice job!! You keep giving me different labels... What rights do you want? ? ? ? 1 Like |
Re: We Should All Be Feminists- Chimamanda Adichie by 99cent: 1:53am On Jun 30, 2013 |
women aren't stupid. majority of women in USA are actually feminist. at about almost 60%. an even larger majority are democrats. while the concentration of the anti-feminist women are republican. this is why when sexist politics get into women issues, women are not so stupid as not to see it. in this case, women voted with their legs. literally!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLBKAS_AeBM |
Re: We Should All Be Feminists- Chimamanda Adichie by Nobody: 1:53am On Jun 30, 2013 |
I.Joan: Yea, so assuming you are the head of your family and you live in Africa will you let your friends and family know that you are the head of the house and you have authority over your spouse? Will you make it public or keep it hidden? I will bear a compound name because it's my choice and he can make any decision concerning that as he pleases! You will bear a compound name but you will still take up his name along with yours, he is not bearing your name. YOU ARE BEARING HIS, compound or not. |
