It's a great expose about the true nature of modern feminism by the daughter of one of the feminist icons, Alice Walker.
Based on some of the pictures i’ve seen of radical feminists I would prefer they not be exposed.

Ugly, ugly stuff. But an interesting read. Thanks for the link.
Perhaps the true believers not having kids is a blessing. Stub it off in one generation.
Feminism has betrayed an entire generation of women into childlessness. It is devastating.
There's the kill shot.
Wow, somehow this woman turned out normal after a crazy childhood overseen by a cruel mother.
Only a tiny percentage of women are childless. This sort of extremism was hardly taken to heart by an “entire generation”.
You’re welcome. It is ugly...but it is the truth about what this movement is all about. If this woman can snub and disown her own daughter so dispassionately, then is it any wonder that they are willing to accept a Bill Clinton for example, in the furtherance of their sick agenda.
Such mental sickness underlying that whole agenda...amazing that this woman was able to work her way out of it...but I am sure that is because one her Dad's side she saw what a normal family, with its nuturing and love could mean, and she determined to have it for herself and her own children.
Also let's you know that God's Spirit it out there working in people's hearts despite what the enemy of all rightousness foists on others.
This woman is clearly speaking from her own perspective, being raised in and around feminists. Just as clealry an entire generation was not affected...but a large segment of those who subscribed to this agenda in her generation certainly were.
Amazing that this woman was able to grow up with the right values in spite of her mother!
Did Hillary stay home and play with Chelsea...
Didn’t Michelle say that she couldn’t stand to stay home all day with ‘the children’...
Do they know how to love?
The rest of it was he deciding which of the two she wanted for herself and her own children.
That experience and then her deciding which she wanted for herself and her own children did the trick I am sure.
Her mother sounds like a self-centered child. In most cases, the daughter lets go of the mother-daughter conflict in her 20's. Here, the daughter long ago let go of that - it's the mother who won't let it go.
Great article. Feminism has done nothing but destroy lives and shatter dreams.
[she was blessed nonetheless to be exposed to her Dad’s side ]
Yes, even a very young child can ‘feel’ the love from someone and will gravitate to that person. She was lucky she had a father like that.
I once worked with one year old children and was amazed to watch their interaction as a group. AND, even the one year old boys liked the cutest girls!! That was a shocker, lol.
Any stats on that?
There are many women out there and there will be more that are going to grow very old and very lonely because they bought the feminist, “marriage is slavery and children are a waste of your valuable talents” crap. Too many of my generation 64-50 went to college and “learned” all the feminist crap and then went out and lived it. They didn’t marry or if they did they married Alan Alda-like liberal men and divorced them after 10-12 years to go out and find themselves and become self fulfilled. They are now entering their 60’s and late 50’s with no family, no husband, no children just a cat or a dog and some friends in similar situations. I know a number of these women; teachers, lawyers and other professionals who go home to an empty house and cling to the children and grandchildren of their friends and family members for solace in their loneliness.
What an interesting story! This woman turned out normal despite her mother’s twisted views. It’s obvious that being a woman and mother is inborn in almost all women despite their upbringing.
On the other hand, her mom’s got some serious issues. To not even welcome her grandchild, how weird is that? To just ignore his birth and not have any contact with her daughter/her grandchilds mother. I agree with this woman, she’s better off without her (biological-my term)mother. I just can’t imagine what life would be without my mom. I would hope my children would feel the same about theirs.
