Say what? A “matriarchy”?
This is the third time in a couple of days that I’ve read the title as “Brazilian Slut Culture.”
My daughters appear to be staying far away from this for now. Keeping a close eye on them though. One thing I’m trying to do is develop a sense of strong self-confidence in them. They shouldn’t find the need to sleep around to be popular.
Since a woman would be the executive in a system with three branches (for checks and balances of course) as part of a republic that democratically elects representatives, it’s kind of hard to call a the US with a female president a matriarchy. Also, could you please list the republics that have been destroyed by “matriarchies”?
Just look at the reality shows! I’ve blocked entire channels and numerous shows on others to keep it out of my house. Unfortunately my oldest daughter (she’s 24 with 3 kids by 3 different guys who are all deadbeats) is drawn to this garbage. For some insane reason she “needs” to see a lot of drama and is attracted to it in her own life.
About a year ago I heard an actor (name escapes me) on Dennis Miller radio show that came of age in the 60s in Hollywood. Promiscuity was the name of the game. The most interesting thing he discussed is how the guys were so interested in helping women get legal abortions then. He said it was sold in such a way, Tom Sawyer like, that women needed to have the right to legal abortions because they should have a say over their own bodies. He said in fact it was a male thing just to make it easier for them not to have any responsibility for their own sexual activity. The women fell for it and the rest is history. The women, nee feminists, got punked.
The ‘60’s are back!
{cough!} Ping!
Excellent point.
Basically I think this entire aspect (sexual freedom) of the left-wing centers around the Marxist ideal of the abolition of family. The counter-culture movement and it’s sexual revolution were completely oriented towards the abolition of family and traditional morality.
It is anti-freedom and not pro-freedom at all.
If you can't follow that it must be down to left-brain thinking. Sexist.
Yeah, he’s an adolescent in a man’s body.”
That probably describes a substantial majority of pro athletes.
Israel survived Golda Meier adequately.
The bizarre thing about reality shows is that they are all, without exception, based upon the most artificial conditions imaginable!
That was a cheap shot,but expected. I “liked” how the clinic worker smiled when the Dr. chick wanted to set up her own appointment.
Some sluts give other Sluts a bad name, the hussies.
So the angry fems on FreeRepublic can’t take the article for what it’s worth without making damn sure to attack men (who BTW are under constant attack from popculture anyways).
This article’s purpose is to help young women and their parents, but hey, don’t let that get in the way of your anger....
I have yet to see one “angry fem” response to the article. Maybe some responses, male or female, regarding the “matriarchy” comment. Too bad Margaret Thatcher isn’t here to make a comment on that!
I think Britain AND America could use a leader like Lady Thatcher...
Not every bad child comes from bad parents. Not every good child comes from good parents. Some kids just have it them to do as they please no matter the environment or wethether they choose the right or wrong direction
