Stupid Feminists Strike Again
 

Since we're on the trend of gender discussions, I just thought I would post about the most annoying commerical I've seen in a LONG time.

I'm sure most of you know about the new chick channel...Oxygen (a terribly mutated, larger LIFETIME *shudder*). Well, being the Cartoon Network freak that I am, I keep seeing this commerical for the new channel, with the baby girls keep throwing off their pink bonnets and the background music keeps repeating "I am strong, I am invincible" :rolleyes:

I mean, since when is being feminine the opposite of being "independent"? Since I like Hello Kitty and LOVE baby pink, does that mean that I'm somehow less "strong" than some idiot militant feminist that throws off her : pinkness :? Argh...sorry just wanted to vent:mad:

what are you trying to say: strong enough for a man, but PH balanced for a woman? or pink is Juuuuuuuuuuust not your color?
something in that line? or just because you are a female, you are supposed to like pink? you are less strong if you let that steeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeewpid commercial get to you!

rock on!

Errrrr...no. I was saying that's what the COMMERICAL was trying to portray. I love pink :) and my Hello Kitty wallet...and socks...and shirt...and...well you get the idea :D I swear SRV you always misinterpret me :p

I'm SAYING that it is very possible to be both "girly" and strong, in your own way. And, no I'm not less strong by letting that commerical get to me: it is a verv valid concern that those type of messages will lead to a whole new generation of women that recieve these skewed messages that are shoveled by the likes of Gloria Steinem and Oprah Winfrey. The ideas pushed by these "women" are the same that incite the women you complain about saying they just want to be friends, because they "don't need a man".

I don't ALWAYS misinterpret you!

Sometimes - yeah, but most of the times, no.
SORRY! I misread your statement. I don't know what a 'Hello Kitty' is, but I kind of do now! It's very rare of me to watch any TV. I don't watch it much. I know about the O2 channel. I've seen it once. I just thought it was a channel for women who "stay at home during the day". Like the 'soaps', I guess.

I know it's possible to be "girly" and strong in your own way. As for the commercial, basically what I meant was to just ignore that commercial.

NO! those aren't the same WOMEN I COMPLAIN about! I don't like feministic women. Therefore I wouldn't be around them. Those aren't the women I'm COMPLAINING about! The women that I'm COMPLAINING about are the ones that don't have a clue 'what they want'! Or they are "confused"! Those are the types I get mixed with!

And ALL of the women that wanted to be "FRIENDS", didn't have the guts to tell me what they want. Just led me on. All of mine were excuses! Maybe not all the women use that for an excuse and really mean it, but for me, they all used that as an excuse!

As for that Oxygen channel, I would just keep on surfin by!

this is pretty intresting. I understand what u are saying though belle i have met lots of girls in my life time that where very strong but yet still very girlie all at the same time. 2 of which are female members of my family. Both are as about as girlie as they come but just as storng as any female i have ever met. Hell i like girlie type females it attracts me for some reason. The point is u don't have to be all masculine and butch and a beotch about it to be a strong female.

OK I understand now, and sorry I misunderstood you too! :)

69fastback: I totally agree! I'm the chick with the Hello Kitty purse that will beat you with it if you start steppin!!!! :D ;)

PAM?
 

oh, i really dont care for fake boobs. they look like they were glues on. not saying i hate them, just like naturals better, unless it was a medical condition, then thats different. so...:p

My avatar is not indicative of what I think is correct...I don't think you resemble a woodpecker ;)

I think she's an trailblazer in the sense that she knows that she is not the most intellectual woman, yet lonely men worldwide will buy her magazines, videos, and watch her shows (making her a millionaire) and drool over her when she has ZERO acting ability and seemingly the education of a 10th grader. Although personally I would never try to make money off my body/appearance, I always admire those that can manipulate the shallowness of today's society to their benefit, for it is the salivating peons that feed the demand .

Also, I never said I was against fake boobs. I'm against them if you undergo the knife to make someone else happy, or if they look disgusting (the water balloon appearance). If you want bigger breasts to please yourself, and they don't look that bad, why the heck not? Its important to like how you look for YOURSELF, not for anyone else. But I also do think that natural is always nicer. I hear that they do not feel the same...I mean...water in a bag isn't exactly the closest to a natural boob ;)

i never implied that you said anything on the matter. i understood why you put Pam as your avatar. just stating my opinion. but that is one of the most "known" things about her. that and the home videos. im lonely. i dont buy, watch or pay for any of her merchandise. to me she is just a ****. period! and, NO, you never said anything on this matter of bringing it up. as for "inner beauty", most of the time it doesnt really work like that in the real world.
and yes, i am a ****** at times!

******= p e c k e r just to fill u in

:confused: I don't really understand your post after this point:

"NO, you never said anything on this matter of bringing it up. as for "inner beauty", most of the time it doesnt really work like that in the real world."

Well, obviously it doesn't, but who could change that (if we wanted to? US. People just don't care enough to...nothing is wrong with a nice physical appearance. In fact, I think it is necessary to be VERY attracted to your mate (beauty is in the eye of the beholder). Like I said, I admire her determination in playing for fools the very people that make it possible for her to prosper.

I have to agree with Mr 5 0. I couldn't have said it any better myself. Women Think they have to shed the Wo, to men, to get anywhere in life. Trust me, I don't want a Janet Reno for a wife. Yes I lick a little toughness in one, but I don't want a women that thinks she has to be more manly then me.

But she has to be strong enough to stand up for herself and me. There is a fine point between too much girlyness, and girlmanlyness. Women can't be a man, to some, it sounds sexest. To me, it sounds right.

I don't want nothing else. The opposite,(not in the love for cars).


Another thing, when women want equal rights, they fight for it, but when they get it, they don't want it. What is this. They want to be treated the same, so we do. But then they camplain that we are being sexist. What the hell??? How do we win this? Women say they don't want the man to treat them any different then another man. To me, that means no flirting, no opening doors for them, no special treatment for them; just kick them out there and say, "it's a cruel world."

Me, I treat them the way that the old school girl wants to be treated. They may complian about the special treatment, but I feel better inside that I did what was right and good to them; like opening doors, walking on the road side of the sidewalk, little things that make a big difference in life.



Hey srv1, did I miss something here, where did this come from???

Beauty may be in the eye of the beholder, but to place looks in one of the upper most priorities in a relationship is just.....Shallow.

Appearances may be one of the reasons why that 'someone' caught your eye, but I've been attracted to women before because of their personality and conversation.

Looks wont carry a relationship far at all, I'd hate to have a relationship with so little depth.

As for Pamela Anderson, I have no respect for her, never have, never will, regardless of how much money she made off of selling Wedding Night videos, and showing her body parts jiggle while running the sandy beaches.

Money should not come before Integrity.

If that's what it takes to be famous, then I'll just have to pass.

janet reno-:eek: :eek: :eek: NO man could get that drunk hehe:rolleyes:

U gotta think, someone has?:eek:


Thats not drunk, it's in a coma.-hehe:p

Sorry to downgrade your topic like this Mustangbelle306, but it was funny.

I hate that commercial. It actually makes me angry. The message I get from it is "Women are just plain stupid from birth", and i don't personally believe that.

Take care,
-Chris

I still have yet to see it.

Quite frankly, I've never understood the whole women's lib thing. I mean, you already have half the money and all the nookie, and you (as a whole) wield it like a sword sometimes.

Not trying to imply anything negative, or start a flame war. As a famous Indian woman once said when her people were at war, "We are your mothers, you are our sons."

I forget the rest, but it's very moving. I'll see if I can find it. I have it laying around here somewhere. Anyway, The point of it is this; if it weren't for your mom, you wouldn't be here. Treat every woman as you would treat you own mom. If you live by that rule, you'll never go wrong.

Just my $0.02, not that's it's worth much. :D
Later.

My opinion is that if ANYONE, male OR female, wants to get anywhere in life they have to MAKE the opportunities and take chances as well as depend on only themselves.

The whole notion that you have to abandon "pink caps" and rise against "the establishment" i believe is BS. In order to make anything of yourself you have to WORK to achieve it, and blaming other people or spending your time bitching doesn't solve much if anything at all.

An example i can give is Oprah Winfrey (? spelling). She didn't "revolt against the foundation" or whatever people like to say. She just worked her butt off to accomplish her goal, and being a woman and a minority it was probably harder because of stereotypes, but not impossible to make something of her self, and she obviously succeeded and then some.

Something i respect in people is goals and determination. If you talked to any of those "feminazis" and asked them what their long term goal was and where they want to be in the future, they'd probably babble on about making equality for women and concentrating on making more opportunities for their "women sisters". What I don't understand is, why don't they lead by example and support educating other females in trades, rather than just bitching and no one going out and doing the "dirty work" themselves.

Well, this is just my opinion and some people may not agree, but this is just what i personally feel.

oophrah?!
 

couldnt be said any better than that!

oh, i still dont like her show! that just my preference.:eek:

I didn't mean to imply that i like oprah's show either, it's just that she makes a ton of money :D . Also, women right's advocates as Mr 5 0 pointed out have gone on to attacking other things in society, but you still hear the occasional whine of "women don't make as much money", "women aren't promoted as often", etc. etc.
My own mother is a senior manager (in charge of a large editing group) for microsoft and worked her way up from the bottom 10 years ago (as a temp worker) and now she has a nice nest egg for retirement and a very good paying, high ranking, responsible job and has a say in alot of the operations in her group.

That commercial really is annoying!! I really don't like the message it is sending out, atall! It seems as though they are saying "I hate to be a female" or "I'm not going to be feminine". It makes me feel they hate men, in general (almost threatening).

As far as that woman that drug her 5 children, (kicking, screaming, and begging) one-by-one to the tub and drown them.. To kill your own defenseless children, the ones that look up to you with unconditional love, is just sickening!!

I understand that people 'lose it' sometimes but that woman had more than one chance to stop between the beginning of the first and the ending of the last child. She had other choices besides killing them! It isn't some mental condition, like they are making it out to be, she is just an evil person(woman or not). My opinion is that if they were to execute 'crazy' people with the same death they deliver, there wouldn't be so many 'crazy' *** people.

BINGO.

Actually, it goes way, way, way beyond current affairs and pure politics. I mean current feminist research nowadays is about concepts of transcending gender. In women's studies courses, one learns that the act & process of a man impregnating a woman is actually the purest form of oppression of a woman by a man.

then there is Marxist-Feminism: the most cutting edge feminist theory there is; and the one most widely epoused by the intelligistia in the academy.

i can walk through the halls of my alma-mater's humanities and social studies dept's and see nothing but posters, newspaper clippings and other related anecdotes singing the praises of Marxism AND FEMINISM ( as it is now taught).

Actually, i heard they were considering calling this a case of "belated partial birth abortion"



exactly. So... where are all the feminists now? that is, now that we are removing Islamic Fascism from being a serious threat to women and free people everywhere, where are they?

The silence is deafening.

Actually, far from silence, most of the tenured radicals would prefer it if the war was stopped.

someone needs to ask these people, exactly in which direction does your moral compass point?

fixer:

I concur with your observations on feminists.

It's generally understood that feminism today has been taken over by the radicals, and that is nowhere more evident than on the college campus.

Look at the what they support (Andrea Yeager) and what they ignore (Afghanistan women).

Hopefully, they are becoming a marginal factor in the lives of most women, as they should be.

Frankly, I think that feminism's time has passed, just as the 'civil rights' era passed a long time ago. Oh, there is still some bigotry against both racial minorities and women here and there and you can find some specific grievence in any large organization, but institutionally-sponsored racism or 'gender-bias' is mostly a figment of the imaginations of the NOW gang and Al Sharpton.

I find it interesting that Oprah Winfrey - a black woman - is one of the most successful people in America; certainly one of the richest women.

She was born poor, female and black and yet, in what some groups will try to tell you is a racist and 'patriarchal' society, Oprah rose, through her own efforts and abilities, to attain the stardom, influence and wealth she enjoys today. She didn't marry some guy or trade on her race to get there, either. NOW and the NAACP will tell you that they 'paved the way' for an Oprah to succeed, but I believe that the American people paved the way, by abandoning racism as an acceptable attitude and accepting women in roles they might not have been accepted in earlier. We all benefited from that change.

Yes, the civil rights movement and the women's liberation movement started the ball rolling in the '60's by bringing these issues to light and making them something the American public had to deal with, but Americans responded responsibly and these issues were basically settled about 20 to 30 years ago.

We're a better nation for those national decisions and I don't want to go back but that is exactly why you see Jesse Jackson shaking down car companies for multi-million-dollar 'affirmative action' scams and NOW defending mass child-murderers. They are basically irrelevant and need to search out for something, anything to 'champion' to keep the money coming in.

Unfortunately, some folks still believe that these groups really represent black people or women. They don't, but the liberal media run to them for a quote anytime any issue that falls in the area of race or gender comes up, so the general impression the public gets is that they are representing those groups.

I'm not fooled and as far as NOW goes, I doubt very many women - especially younger ones - are fooled, either. They are a lot smarter than that.
I mean, can many women look at Kim Gandy, the shrill leader of NOW and relate to her? I doubt it.

As I said, American women are smart and independent and won't be taken in by radical feminists telling them that killing their unborn babies is the epitome of womenhood and that 'men' are the source of any problems they ever had.


Is this a great country or what?

Older and wiser
 

This could not be more true for myself.
I must regretfully admit that I was one of the guys in high school that listened to their friends about who I dated. "She's a wh#$#, D'ont go out with her, she isn't that good looking, I heard that she ________, or any other sterotypical excuse that the guys could think of.
I found my self in a couple of bad situations because I DIDN'T do like they advised though. I'm glad I put myself in that place though. I am a lot more independent now because if I screw something up it's because "I" screwed something up, not anyone else.

I've found myself attracted to many women that in high school where totally against what ever happened to be popular that week.

I'm interested in all women, for the most part. There are a couple of areas I decline from entering only because "I" have made the decision, no one else. I have grown a lot over the past four years and have come to realize that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Granted, I don't want to end up with someone that is absolutely "grotesque" but looks aren't the most important thing anymore. I enjoy beautiful women as much as the next guy but they're are so many more hidden attributes to the female sex that have made themselves evident in my search for the "Perfect Woman".

I believe that women feel the same way. I dont think that looks are as important to women as they once were. At least for my sake, I hope not! I'm not Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise but I don't consider myself to be the hunchback either (said respectfully). I just think there are too many people that date or do things because it's 'cool' to go with the star quaterback or the head cheerleader. What about that girl or guy that works hard to get good grades because they want to be a doctor or lawyer and provide a happy and safe living for a family?

I simply can't stand soap operas.
For one reason - I'm a guy, and the other reason is the shear lack of realism. I honestly can't think of any one person that lives life that way.

Be honest to yourself, honest to others, but most importantly, live life for yourself and no one else. I do not care in the least little bit what other people think of me. I'm happy doing what I do and living my own life. I just wish the rest of the world felt the same way.

Brad

Indeed.

WOMEN
 

Find woman, marry women, have little ones, be happy man! I just guess im old fashioned. I think people think to hard about what to do with there life and where am i going and bla bla bla me me me me. Life is what happens while your making other plans!

I look at it like this, and I quote" If there are women, femnazis, out there that think men are the DEBEL, so what. That just means they wont have kids with the same phuked up genes to think like they do." There I said it!:eek: That means in a few generations they might be extinct. Ha.

I was raised up to respect women and treat them well. If I had been raised to mistreat them then I probly would, you see my point. Its all in how the children are taught and raised that defines the future and those people in it.

Just to go on record, I LOVE WOMEN. I might not always agree with em but as a man, they sure are nice.

Real women dont rally and ***** about life, they just live. Lets not forget the strength that our nation showed when its men went to WWII. The (real) women went to work to build the tools and equipment that the men needed to make sure there and our future would be safe. So we should'nt have any doubts as to what women can be capable of when motivated.
Its just sad to see the feminists impress on the minds of young women that they need somone to tell them how they are being mistreated. What a crock-of-sh*t.

Sorry for the long post. Later....
