When you start responding to my many other posts with logic, then I'll start treating you the same. Until then, you have your work cut out. With the exception of one person (Tradition), no one on here has even attempted to make any kind of logical response. It's all just petty insults and accusations that I'm "republican".
I just responded logically to your original post, asking if you could acknowledge the preposterous nature of the question raised in the first second of the video. A direct question. If you don't want to answer it, fine. But to make a snarky response about "feminism" and then complain about petty insults from others is a little odd.
How about you just address my direct question?
Alright, I give in.
I would argue to look at the actions and not the words. Feminist women (and men) might not say that out loud, but it is often the end result. They do often try to shame women who want to have families. I actually don't have any issue if a woman wants to have a career instead of having a family, just so long as she is aware that she cannot have it all. I do have a problem with the radical left trying to tell women "you can have it all" and "have kids later on when you're 37". We know that it's much better for women to have children in their 20's and then have a career later. Dropping your kids in daycare is not an acceptable way to work and have a family.
Also, I'm not against the original feminist movement, just to be clear. But we have achieved equal rights and then some.
Can you cite a specific example where a feminist woman or man has shamed a woman into not having a family? I can't. And I believe you can't either. You speak of feminists as if they are some type of bogeyman. You're convinced this person exists, you just don't have proof. It's like how some Conservatives believe they have a handle on the Liberal mind, yet don't really have any Liberal friends. They just "know how they think."
Can you please also cite a specific article or study that says it's better for women to have children in their 20s as opposed to later? My wife and I adopted two girls when I was 40 and she was 38. We have our problems just like any other family, but I think we're a pretty specific example that refutes your original post. But please, back up your claim with some type of study.
As for dropping kids at daycare and how that's not acceptable - who are you to decide what is acceptable and what isn't for a specific family? Do you have any examples to back up your claim? Please add them if/when you find them.
And finally, how can you possibly say that women have achieved equal rights when you see, almost daily on this board and from this President, how women are treated as second-class citizens?
