The point is, a speaker beats the drum that women are oppressed in this country. Those women who hear it and believe they are oppressed then support said speaker by buying books, their movies, whatever. The speaker’s motivations may be many, but the foremost is money.

Speaking against ‘tyranny’ of women in this country can be lucrative. Speaking against ‘tyranny’ of women in a foreign country has no monetary value, hence no ‘outrage’.

The only exception to this that I see is when the blame for the oppression can be placed on the U.S.—preferably a conservative faction of the U.S. There are enough people here who hate their own country to make such speaking profitable.+

The only "oppression" I've felt is from the femi-nazis I know who mocked, ridiculed and chided me for living with traditional values. They've ruined it for all of us.
