Gary, you don't even know me...you can't say you do just cos you read a few of my posts here that share my political, social, or spiritual views.

I affirm men all the time.

Are you suggesting men and woman DON'T have equal rights??

Maybe you are right.

I don't hear much about men having the option to stay home, sup coffee and watch Oprah whilst their wives go out and flog themselves to an early grave in the big bad corporate world.

I agree. Nothing bothers me more than when a so called feminist will degrade a woman for making the choice to stay at home. I thought that that's what feminism was about, allowing women to live their lives as they choose. This is why I think so many people are turning away from feminism because many feminist are just starting to sound silly and hypocritical.

Ah, so you don't think it should have been reported about at all because you happen to not like their choice of wording? Score one for censorship, I guess

I know what you mean.

I heard a feminist show on talk radio the other day. One of the presenters chastised her co-presenter for referring to two female callers as " you guys"!

Can you read english or has the Cali sun cooked your head too much?

I said that maybe if there were two articles stating both sides of the story maybe that would make you happy. One for the men and one for the women so it would be equal and everyone play nice and you be quiet.
