Veronica Mars took the name Betty when she infiltrated Pan High.

Indeed. And, she's 25 or 6, so we're completely within our rights. :D

Pretty self important lot, these dinosaur feminists:

Should read:

Screwed up the course of human history

Wow, you found a picture of her with her clothes on and not tied up.

I'm impressed.

No kidding!

But what they'll never admit to is that the real reason they hate our President is cuz' he's done more for the women of Iraq et al in less than 36 mos. than what their peaceful protests, idle chatter and "UN (etc.) approved" bullshit hasn't been able to in thirty plus years!

Oh, wow! That's one I hadn't seen. Nice! I'm starting to like Betty Friedan threads.

I would remind women that not all of the women's movement was bad...and along with the bad, there was some very good stuff also. It's not all black and white.

Nothing good emerged fomr the dingy swamps of feminist activism of the 60s---in fact an absolute disaster for the average female...and the males who got sucked into that mire as well.

Most of the so called "rights" that were "fought" for by these ditsy shemales had already been acquired...political rights at the ballot box and by women over the ages who slowly and sensibly fought for them.

The 60s radical bunch have even destroyed the term feminism...associating it forever with lesbianism, anti conservatism, pro Left ideology, anti family - pro infanticide ad nausem

An absolute disaster! One that will take years to recover from.

Surely... however, many would prefer never to have the trade-off forced upon them in the first place.

"If you don't mind my asking, how old are you?"

I'm 54 and however old eleni121 is, it would seem she has her facts straight. Friedan left a legacy alright. Go visit DU or Daily Kos where you will find the spoiled, loud-mouthed brats of the feminists spewing the same ignorant rhetoric she did.

Thanks sage. As for you Hildy...age has nothing to do with ANYTHING!

The strongest most impressive women I have ever known are women who lived and accomplished things way way before the feminist monsters of the 60's emerged from the Commie kid hating swamps!!!
