Monday, August 04, 2003   The Problem With Today's Feminism Feminism claims to empower women to become the equals of men. Yet the painful truth is that feminism has gradually metamorphosed into a movement that trains women to gain government imposed advantages over men, while at the same time remaining dependent upon men�s money and the government, all under the false rhetoric of �rights� and �empowerment.�... Abortion is the most obvious example. Feminists like abortion because it allows women to control a decision that involves both a man and a woman, and this power can be used to really hurt a man by aborting his child. Yet aborting children does not help women become equal to men. To the contrary, it devalues women�s ability to bring life into the world, gives them a guilty conscience, and allows men to have sex with women and leave them, which is a practice that society should be trying to stop, not encourage. ... When it comes to issues involving the family, feminists promote an agenda that keeps women dependent on men and the government. They are adamant that fathers should pay large amounts of child support when a mother and father split up, and they teach ex-wives that they are entitled to alimony from their ex-husbands, even if the ex-wife was the one responsible for the marriage breaking up. MichNews.Com Read the entire essay. There are many more examples. Owing the government for your rights is a bad thing. Our society is predicated upon the fact that your rights pre-exist the government. "I am a victim" is not the cry of empowerment. It is the cry of entrapment. To be a victim, you have to be in a weaker and more helpless place. Feminism puts women there. -- posted by Chuck at Monday, August 04, 2003 | E-mail | Permalink | Main | 0 comments
