John Stuart Mill, really?
[T]he legal subordination of one sex to another is wrong in itself, and now one of the chief hindrances to human improvement; and that it ought to be replaced by a system of perfect equality, admitting no power and privilege on the one side, nor disability on the other.

The Subjection Of Women, Chapter 1

Women in the USSR are accorded equal rights with men in all spheres of economic, state, cultural, social and political life. The possibility of exercising these rights is ensured to women by granting them an equal right with men to work, payment for work, rest and leisure, social insurance and education, and by state protection of the interests of mother and child, pre-maternity and maternity leave with full pay, and the provision of a wide network of maternity homes, nurseries and kindergartens.

1936 USSR Constitution, Article 122

Women and men have equal rights in the USSR. Exercise of these rights is ensured by according women equal access with men to education and vocational and professional training, equal opportunities in employment, remuneration, and promotion, and in social and political, and cultural activity, and by special labor and health protection measures for women; by providing conditions enabling mothers to work; by legal protection, and material and moral support for mothers and children, including paid leaves and other benefits for expectant mothers and mothers, and gradual reduction of working time for mothers with small children.

1977 USSR Constitution, Article 35

But you Communists would introduce community of women, screams the bourgeoisie in chorus.

The bourgeois sees his wife a mere instrument of production. He hears that the instruments of production are to be exploited in common, and, naturally, can come to no other conclusion that the lot of being common to all will likewise fall to the women. He has not even a suspicion that the real point aimed at is to do away with the status of women as mere instruments of production.

For the rest, nothing is more ridiculous than the virtuous indignation of our bourgeois at the community of women which, they pretend, is to be openly and officially established by the Communists. The Communists have no need to introduce community of women; it has existed almost from time immemorial. …

Communist Manifesto, Chapter 2
We are living in a very sad world for women, thanks to the thoughts of people like this. I won’t post the Biblical verses on this subject here, because everyone on here ought to know them already and their proper context.

Ok. I read the story. Usually feminists don’t make anti-feminist points so I get why you were upset but then again after reading thousands of feminazi’s posts for years and hearing the same message I hope you understand why men would turn their ears off when they speak. Motherhood will never be deconstructed even if the manipulate DNA to produce children with 10 fathers and 2 mothers (I could see the bloodsucker variety pushing for this so they could sue 10 fathers for child support and never having to work a day in their life tho). Its embedded in the DNA. Mother nature and God always triumphs. Evil is just having a field day while it can before its day of reckoning.

Well, thanks for reading.

Of course, she’s saying that Elton John and the gay lobby are deconstructing motherhood - not feminists (although they certainly tried in the past - much to their regret I would imagine). I also think we need to take the good from people we disagree with and throw out that what we dislike. The left does this to perfection.

Greer is underestimated by a lot of people. She won my heart years ago during an interview with Chris Matthews in which she doodled on a piece of paper while he was spitting and hissing at her. For weeks afterwards, he brought up her doodling. A true male chauvinist left winger!

She’s a brilliant women unlike Gloria Steinem.

Yes, bringing in the constitution of the Soviet Union in 1977 has nothing to do with John Stuart Mill. People take Jesus’s words and turn them against his beliefs. John Stuart Mill was an enlightened individual and is part of the western canon.

David Horowitz is my hero!

While I doubt Greer is a total convert, she is certainly right in her observations about Elton John - that pedophiliac freak (just watch the play “Billy Eliot” to see what I mean). I mourn those poor kids of his - both boys! We are seeing a deconstruction of motherhood by the gay left and their running dogs in the straight left. There will be hell to pay.

This philosophy plays into the “ Mystery Religion “ and transhumanism, the Occult.

Much of what Adolf Hitler and Margaret Sanger believed in, but in a different flavor.

Check out some of Mike Hoggarts videos for people to get informed.

It’s all part of the serpent’s lie that humans can transend and become “ gods “.

The world’s elitist, the New World Order, the powers that be believe they are the chosen, the over lords to rule the sheeple and they are in fact “ gods” or evolve, transform into “ gods “.

Both motherhood and Fatherhood have been systematically deconstructed by socialists.

It all started in the garden of Eden, the true war on women, and humans.

The emity against Eve and her seed, and the serpent, and his seed.

Jesus said that the enemy has come to: steal, kill, and destroy.

The feminist are the true warriors in the war against women.

Those who have given into the big lie of feminism don’t see it as it really is because they have been lied to and deceived, blinded by the serpent, the devil.

Please don’t say there’s nothing to do with it. There clearly is, especially what with Mill’s treatise coming out 21 years after the Communist Manifesto. Mill was not attacking Islamic misogyny. He was attacking the traditional family by framing the marriage contract in terms of female bondage to males, universally.

Verse 29 is in reference to a verse in the book of Isaiah.

Just like Hanna was barren and being taunted by her husband’s other wife for having been fruitful.

But she weeped in the temple and God heard her prayer, and she promised to give back that promise to God.

Hanna gave birth to Israel’s first prophet, and perhaps one of Israel’s greatest prophets, prophet Samuel.

Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.

Elizabeth and Zackarias served God faithfully, but it seemed God was deaf to their prayers to Elizabeth’s barrenness.

Not knowing that they ?

Would be the parents God ordained to bring the great prophet John the Baptist to introduce and prepare the way, The Messiah, Jesus Christ to the world in his first coming.

At the time, women were prisoners of their husbands - if the husbands were so inclined. They could not inherit, their father's lands were assigned to the husband and they could not get custody of children in a divorce. Ever read A Doll's House? Ever read Charlotte Bronte? These works of literature did not come out of some angry bitch's imagination - they came out of the mind's of great men and women as products of the Enlightenment tradition.

Really... the mother of my children, now grown and successful, will be shocked to hear it.

That’s how the liberal propaganda line reads. And look at the results of attacking the traditional family, on any basis.

Mill is a century too late for the Enlightenment, as is Brontë. Mill’s economic theories were anti-capitalist and even socialistic; Brontë associated herself with people like Harriet Martineau, an associate of Charles Darwin whose views on the poor were called “Malthusian” by Tories of the era.

Women prisoners to their husband’s, that’s hogwash and feminist indoctrination.

A marriage between a man and a woman is ordained by God and is holy and acceptable in God’s sight.

Always be cautious of terms like “ Enlightenment “ for Satan and his angels masarade and appear to humans as “ angels of light “.

Just like the Occultic practices of the Israelites sacrificing their children to false gods like Baal, or malak, so to the feminist movement must have a sacrament to Satan in the form of abortion.

That is what empowers the underworld demons/gods to give the feminist their power.

The feminist movement is occultic in it’s origins.

Their great hero, leader, founder of Plan Parenthood Margerate Sanger wrote about eugenics and taught Adopt Hitler all about eugenics.

Feminism IS NOT what it seems to appear to be to women.

The feminist movement is the true war on women.

Those women, or men who are caught up in the feminist movement are deceived just like Eve was deceived in the garden of Eden.

Liberal or satanic propaganda “ hath God said ? “

Causing the hearer to think ? Am I fulfilled ? Am I happy ? Am I free ? Is the grass greener on the other side ?

Well if Chris Matthews doesn’t like her she must not be all bad.
