^I do. GO RON PAUL. It's funny, the Japanese have no issues with patriarchal society, because they find that everything works fine. Wonder why westerners aren't the same way. Because of Betty Friedan's whinyness.

America is the only country that has a problem with patriarchal society, because here, a woman won't get shot or beaten for speaking her mind (usually).

I have no issues with women speaking their mind. But we will fail if we try to compensate for women in every single little thing (this applies to political correctness as well).

Man, this thread will not last long if one was to debate this over at the likes of 4chan. They are completely anti-feminism. It is so fun to troll them with it because I am always told I failed. Somebody there even said that if men could have babies, they could finally eliminate the entire women population. You know what else is funny there? There are femanons (females) that post in there thread and response to "balloons or GTFO" meme.

^Yeah. 4chaners are freaks. I'm sorry to say that but it's true. I went on the site once: madness. They're probably only saying that because being the type of nerds that they are (the type that stay in the basement or stuffy room all day), they have no chance with any woman that isn't their mom and know that the type of girls that they see in those hentai pics that they're always passing around to each other are not reality. But on the feminism discussion, yeah I say what I want when I want (depending on the situation of course). You'd be suprised at the role of girl in a troupe of men (NO.). See the UD definition "bossy". That's me babeh.

I think you mean /b/tards. Because not all of the Channers are like that. I agree they are nerds, but /co/ is quiet cool and they differently dislike /b/ I could tell. /a/ kind of, but I am really enjoying /co/ because of the Avatar discussions.

Yeah I know that not everybody on these networks are jerks ( like how I am on here to some people) Also, what's up with all of the "//" if I may ask? Sorry, I don't know 4chan code.

^Cool thank.
Now on with the feminism!
So I know that women have a voice and all, but, I just can't help but find some anti-girl/feminism humor funny. For example, my brother has this t-shirt that says "Problem -> Problem Solved" and depicts a stick figure of a girl yelling at her boyfriend in one panel, and then in the next panel the boy put on some headphones to block out her voice. Not to say that this was depiction that was suppose to be against girls giving orders, but my mom and older sister couldn't help but frown at it.
Then again, a lot of girls found it quite hilarious. Just another case on how some people take humorous stuff a bit too serious at times when the intent was to never be malicious in the first place.

Hey, does religion conflicts with feminism most of the time. I mean we have bible verses like 1 Timothy 2:12 (you do not understand how many times I have seen or heard this verse -_-) and other things. We have Islam and Islamic countries saying women are equal to men but only in the home. (*coughErhamacough*) Religion seems to conflict with Feminism.

There are femanons (females) that post in there thread and response to "balloons or GTFO" meme. That's all a joke. 4chan has an interesting ironic sense of humor that sometimes takes a little while to adapt to, because a lot of it is about going against social norms. Female superiority is a minor sect of feminism. The fact that people support it is counterproductive to feminism in general, because of it, men often dismiss all feminism, grouping it together with female superiority. Women deserve equal pay and stuff, and the feminist movement still has a little way to go. But they should also accept that women are different from men, so there will always be some perceptional differences. Absolute equality is impossible, and not worth fighting for. Right now black people and homosexuals have it worse than women.

^Agreed. Women keep saying they're not given the same advantages as men, but if we look for them men probably don't have the same advantages as women. We're different genders, and while we shouldn't separate them, we need to accept that fact.
Not so sure about black people, but yeah, homosexuals have it much worse than women.
And Wii Boy, religious texts were written in the contexts of when they were written. Back then you could have multiple wives, sell/beat/kill your children and have a genocide party. You could kill an accused sinner in the street by throwing freakin rocks at them. You could offer your kid as a sacrifice in one nice bonfire. The Bible was written for people at the time it was first written, even though we can still apply a lot of it to today.
I'm sorry for splinching from the feminism.
I'm also sorry to Fundamentalists who disagree with my Catholic views.

Ironically enough, black women (single mothers) constitute as the largest group in poverty and, imo, have one of the worst social images in the states. Equal rights wise homosexuals do have it worse. But, that depends on which parts of the US your talking about. Worldwide? Women and girls have fewer rights (both social and human) than any other group.

I could go on and on saying things that have already been debated, but I think this will suffice.
I don't believe that you should be feminist. Its really just another side to a social war. If you are true to having equal rights, then you don't pick sides. You simply have the freedom to believe and fight for your freedoms.

Now feminist really p*ss me off. They want to be superior over men when everyone and this includes me. Realize that women could never take the place of men. Men are better at so many things then women and sure women can do great things. But if this nation or the world for that matter becomes female dominate. Then I will most likely commit suicide and blame the feminist for burthen this entire world over. I realized a long time ago that my place as a woman was towards my husband. Which sadly I left him. I just cannot believe what happened to this world nowadays. Why can't things go back to the way they were. I have seriously thought about suicide over this, seeing how every man I ever met never treated me like how I SHOULD be treated. Added * Please use * if a swear word is used.
