In 2006, women still get a raw deal

Women have it so bad, they almost universally live much longer.

Isn't it amazing ? they rebel against a society that was for the most part got it's origins from Christianity.
It was not until Christianity that women had any kind of value, or cherished.

Who has it worse than the middle class white male?

I'm a bad feminist. Worse decision man ever made was giving women the right to vote (not that I, myself do not appreciate that right). Ever since, the family unit has disintegrated, moral values have declined, abortion on demand, illegitimacy legitimized, etc.

Give. Me. A. Freaking. Break.

[wideawake]

our 2000 years of discrimination?

LOL!

Glad she expressed her hatred of Christianity in her first sentence.

Because, of course, women ran the world in a blissfully egalitarian matriarchal utopia before Jesus came and ruined everything.

[Prophet in the wilderness]

To put it bluntly, they want a FREE RIDE from the labor or money of men.
All they want is men to be their slaves, come on now, admit it.
They want men to support them, but, at the same time, want their independence too.

See post 36. Too easy, right?

Interesting theory.

Before women's suffrage and voting at 18, Americans effectively voted as households - not as individuals.

It would be interesting to do work on what that "paradigm shift" had on US society.

[wideawake]

Far too easy.

It must be depressing when your eHarmony profile says you're not compatible with anyone.

Women, by nature or culture, are passive-aggressive. This rant is an example of aggressive. The big payoff for being passive-aggressive is nothing is ever their fault, there's no personal responsibility, no white man's burden to carry. They enjoy things when they go right, and can verbally unload when they don't.

While being passive-aggressive is a viable life strategy, it produces sub-par results. Women would better off shedding this outdated victims strategy for a one of active decision making. And like men if things don't work out to their liking they can put a cork in it and try again.

I shouldn't be surprised that this is an old lady belly-aching. She wants equal opportunity AND PROTECTION... protection from what? Her own shortcomings??? As a woman, I am sick of these whiners. They have no perspective at all. If the glass is 99% full, it still isn't good enough.

[linda_22003]

Or dating much, either.

[roaddog727]

Darlin', just fry me a lizzard.

" our 2000 years of discrimination? "
I am sure they shout that loud and hard in all of those ( ALL FEMALE ) organizations, clubs, were they don't allow men to go.

[Frapster]

aaaaaaaahahahahaahahahaha... what a hoot!

[Prophet in the wilderness]

Feminism and Homosexuality is purely demonic and satanic.
The Feminist and Homosexuals will be at the forefront usher in the anti - Christ and they will be at the forefront of persecuting the Christians in the future.

"...What reparation can women seek — like the 40 acres and a mule due slaves after the American Civil War..."

I'm sorry, were you talking? because I wasn't listening. Now get back in that kitchen and start my dinner.

[rjp2005]

A pointless rant by a bitter author. Hillary as President makes up for centuries of abuse of women? I don't think so.

[AmishDude]

I'm glad the author is bitching and whining to break down anti-female stereotypes.

I was thinking Dennis Kucinich would have been a great catch for her.
