Feminism - This Generation’s Totalitarianism? (Yes I know Burn me at the Stake Now)

Posted by Cooltrainer Josh in Articles

All my life I’ve totally supported feminists, and women’s rights. I have always felt equal to women, maybe a main reason I never dated; most men see women as slightly inferior, whether they are capable of admitting it (whether out loud or to themselves even) or not.

I saw an article on here saying that feminists have a long way to go, and I must say I disagree, though not wholeheartedly. While woman still experience social and financial draw-backs, like the glass ceiling, I must say that America is one of the most feminized nations in the world; albeit not in literal meaning - in fundamental principle.

I say this for many reasons. American society has shown a drastic slowdown in the past few years; the economy followed suit, and now we are in a recession. I hate to rant as much as people hate to read a rant, but let’s think about this for a second.

Legal drinking age is 21, and typical children’s television is just… way too kiddy. Of course, you could argue the opposite both ways. But look at Europe’s portrayal of the media; hell, I think france has nude news. We are so scared of exposing children to the facts of life, that we grow up in this perpetually shielded, sheltered world, and that in turn makes us totally unprepared for “the real world”.

I’m not suggesting by any means I have this all figured out. Just reflecting on my own opinion. Think about the average American minimum wage worker; they undoubtedly had dreams far beyond what they are currently doing when they were growing up, but social standards and financial issues prevent them from reaching their full potential. I’m not saying this simply because as of this summer I will be a (eric this pisses me off, change this site to standard html or tell me how to do this) <a href=”http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEET”>NEET</a> [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEET]NEET[/url], but because of the way America looks to solve problems in today’s world. We take VERY feminized approaches, making sure no one’s feelings are hurt, or at least the smallest minority; maybe that is the definition of democracy, though.

So, who does “feminization” help? I’ll tell you. The people in power. I’ll tell you why. They make the rules, and they can choose what means to go about doing this; you see in action and psyco thrillers, it’s always some elaborate evil scheme to control mankind; but no, the evil in America is very feminized, in that they go about very slow, meticulous ways to take total control; so they look good while doing it.

Feminism is all about looking good, having a fair facade while truly gripping the masses by the balls. If 9/11 was an inside job, I cannot think of a more prime example; a self-inflicted wound, pointed fingers, radical defense of the women and children of the homeland by taking a war overseas. Very feminized, romantic. I can almost see the women dangling their handkerchiefs out the window to the troops on their way to an airport.

People, this is like the church medieval times, only the scales and methods have changed. Good natured outward appearance, deadly ultimate goal. Think about that.
