Feminism Is A Scam, It Kept Me Unmarried For 55 Years” – US Activist, Candace by faith2kool(f): 3:41pm On Nov 18, 2019
Popular American activist, Candace Owen has admitted that she discovered too late that feminism is a scam and is not about uplifting women but tearing women down and hence she has changed her stance.

Candace Owens gave an audience of young women a brief background on her past as a liberal Democrat. It was a college course — Feminism 101 — that made her realize that feminism was not for her.

30-year-old Candace shared a story of her friend who is 55-year-old and single. According to her, the lady voiced out about how much she regrets dabbling in its practice which has left her with no children and forcing her to take medication regularly.

“I learnt too late that feminism was a scam. Today I am 55, I am unmarried, I have passed the age I can have children & I have to take medicines to help keep me happy, I am on my medication and that is the scam of feminism,” Owen told her audience during Turning Point USA’s Young Women’s Leadership Summit.

“If there’s anything I could go back and do, I would’ve warned myself against the scam of feminism,” the woman continued.

Candace Owens argued that feminism — once a good thing — has been hijacked by the left.

“What the left is really good at doing is hijacking a term that once meant something and pretending that it’s still the same thing when, in fact, it’s not,” Owens said.

“Really, if you want to see something toxic, tell a feminist — who says they support every idea a woman has — tell a feminist that you’re not a feminist and see what happens. See the way that you get treated.

“I can’t think of women that are nastier and meaner than the ones who exist under these pussy hats, right?” she added.

Owens pivoted to her distaste for the #MeToo movement and the backlash she received for speaking against it. However, she said the truth eventually came out.

“Suddenly, everybody woke up and they realized that this was not about empowering women,” she said. “This was not a movement that was really about giving people a voice who have struggled in their past. It was about getting power and getting it by any means necessary.”

“If there’s anything I could go back and do, I would’ve warned myself against the scam of feminism,” the woman wrote.

Owens brought up a number of far-left feminist icons in Hollywood, including Lena Dunham, Miley Cyrus, and Chelsea Handler.

“I believe these voices like Lena Dunham, and Miley Cyrus, and Chelsea Handler are convincing women against themselves, telling women, ‘You don’t need a man. You don’t need anyone. You should want to do everything by yourself. And if you do aspire to that — if you aspire toward nature — then something’s wrong with you,’” Owens said.

She told the crowd to “pause” and ask the following question: “Who is the most extreme feminist you know today?”

“Ask yourself a very simple question: Do you think those women are happy?” she asked. “There’s no chance that they’re happy.”

“That is why I believe feminism is a scam,” she continued. “It’s not about uplifting women. It’s about tearing women down.”

They won't hear....till they start using them to headline "I must marry this year's prayer crusade they won't have sense.. except from some few feminists, most of them are bitter souls that are only after bringing men down, they bear so much hate towards the male gender that one wonders if they have no father. I don't know how they expect to be happy with so much bitterness in their hearts.
The other forms of feminists are oloshos who sleep for men in the dark and come out screaming men are trash next thing boom belle don show..how una take get belle.

I don't know about her or any feminist out there.

For me, I never said I don't need a man in my life.

My only issue is I'm choosy, I can't just marry any man because he has a dick.

I prefer a man with Class, brains, ideas, energy, sense of responsibility, compassion ,family values and humour.

That's my desire.
