/Women are in the unique and privileged role to be able to love./
So, men can't love? Love is an exclusively female concept? And you morons claim that feminists hate men?
/As Jesus tells us, it's easy to love those who love us, even sinners to that. Real love is the ability to love one's enemies or love people who do not treat us well./
So, like Papabear said, I don't really love my family because they do treat me well?
/And that's the role that women were assigned. Men have to literally toil in the work place,/
OHOHO, I see what you did there. Sorry, peace4ever, but spending time in an air-conditioned room in a cushioned chair, while occasionally sipping coffee and typing on a modern computer does not fully substitute Adam's curse of "toiling in the fields." Just in case you were thinking of justifying childbirth pains with Eve's curse.
/protect themselves from those who want to devour them./
Who wants to devour them? CEOs? Lawyers? Employers? Who?
/So instead of envying the role of men and competing with them, we are in the wonderful position of loving them at home so they can fulfill their roles and have some comfort at home./
What about those men who WANT to stay home? Who don't want to "fulfill their roles?" And yes, never mind the amount of stress and time that goes into running a home and taking care of a family, the minute that Dear Old Dad comes home, the dinner should be set and ready with Mommy Dearest in a flawless white apron and dewy smile like in "Leave it to Beaver" cheerfully heralding his return. If not, then obviously she has to be punished severely for shirking her sacred duty.
/But there is no self-glory in love because love is self-less. So sadly, many women are opting out of wanting to love their husbands to compete with them instead./
As long as the competition isn't ugly or leads to any real problems, it's harmless. I compete with my dad and brother all the time when we're playing video games or sports together, and we don't love each other any less. Whenever my parents compete, it's in a teasing and light-hearted way and never causes any lasting problems. And my father was THRILLED when my mother got another part-time job, even though he's the principal breadwinner. If a father and son compete, does that mean that they love each other less? Of course not.
/This has led to:
1) Women wearing men's clothes/
Women wore pants in China and the Middle East for centuries, as well as in the Arctic. Jesus wore a robe, which many teenagers today would consider a dress. Not a single Jew or Roman during his time wore pants. Fashion changes.
/2) Women cutting their hair short like a man/
And Jesus, in most depictions, wore his hair long like a woman! The horror!
/3) Gender identity confusion/
If you're talking about women who don't conform to rigid gender roles, I assure you, they are not confused. In fact, they are more enlightened than you are. If you're talking about transsexuals, maybe they wouldn't be quite as confused if people like you wouldn't insist on foisting oppressive and nonsensical gender roles on them.
/4) Divorce/
Yeah, because you know, women totally had equal rights when Henry VIII decided to divorce his first wife because she wasn't pretty anymore and he wanted a son, and divorce his fourth wife because he found her ugly. *sarcasm* And heaven forbid women want to get out of an abusive relationship. People like you never consider that if women did have the divorce options that are available to them today, there would have been a lot more divorces in the oh-so-glorious 1950's that you people tout so much, as well as earlier years.
/5) Career battles between men and women/
But, of course, if there are career battles between men and men, well, boys will be boys! *eyeroll*
/6) Affairs in the work place/
Because men totally didn't cheat on their wives by taking advantage of their secretaries in the 1950's. Or cheat on their wives with their servants or cooks or maids. And what about gay men? I guess in peace4ever's world, they don't exist.
/7) Children being raised by day-care workers/
As long as the day-care workers are responsible and caring, I don't see how this is a problem, aside from the possible isolation from their parents if taken to an extreme.
/8) A divided family instead of a cohesive family where the mother binds everyone together/
Yes, of course it's always the MOTHER'S job to bind everyone together. Never the father's. Despite being the so-called head of the household, all he has to do at home is sit and relax, while Mommy takes care of everything, according to you.
/9) Promiscuity/
Because before women had rights, some men totally didn't run out and bang every women with a pulse. *eyeroll*
/10) Middle-aged women spending thousands of dollars wanting to look like their teen-age daughters to entice younger men/
If they do in fact do it for that reason, yes, it is kind of sleazy. But I'd be willing to bet that most of them do it for THEMSELVES. Not everything revolves around men.
/11) Adultery/
Henry VIII. King David. Abraham. Julius Caesar. Mark Antony. Not to mention those countless kings who cheated on their wives with mistresses and prostitutes. All before women got the right to vote. FAIL.
/12) Not knowing the difference between a husband and wife/
Not buying your stupid gender roles, you mean. Oh, give it a rest.
/13) Not knowing the difference between a mother and fathers' role (when fathers stay at home so the mother can work)/
Not all mothers work inside the home and not all fathers work outside the home. You're really not endearing yourself to the stay-at-home-father crowd, you know.
/14) Alienation between mothers and children when mothers work/
How about when fathers work? Oh, I'm sorry, that never happens. (eyeroll)
/15) Increase in income in 2 income families so they can "keep up with the Jones's" and make it hard for one-income families to stay afloat./
So, if a woman's husband dies, she should starve in the streets along with her children just so that she won't have to work and abandon her "mother role?" How about if her HUSBAND divorces HER? Well, obviously, she must have done something wrong and thus deserves to starve.
/16) Desire not to have children if it interferes with the mother's career/
I wouldn't be surprised if there are stay-at-home housewives who don't want children. Some women don't want children because they feel that they are not suited for motherhood, and that's perfectly fine. If I told you that some men didn't want children, I bet you wouldn't say that it was automatically because they didn't want their careers interfered with. Double standard, much?
/17) Lack of support in neighborhoods of stay-at-home moms/
Are you sure that that's the feminists' fault?
/18) Fast food meals that have actually increased obesity in the world rather than decreased it/
That statement is true by itself, but what the heck does that have to do with women having careers?
/19) Woman "body-builders" who want to look more like men than women/
Oh, because women who work out are automatically "masculine" and are ashamed of being women, am I right? I'm Spartan on my mother's side, twit. How I wish that I could build a time machine so that I could throw you inside and transport you back to Ancient Sparta to spout this nonsense (with a translator so that the Spartans would be able to understand you). How I wish that I could be around to watch as my ancestors, male and female, would lay the smackdown on you.
/20) Killing their unborn child if it interferes with a woman's career/
Ah, what would a long, misogynistic essay about women are to blame for everything be without mentioning abortion? Has it never occurred to you that sometimes it's the women's BOYFRIENDS who take them to an abortion clinic, because they don't want the baby either? Because some of them don't want to have to deal with the consequences of their actions?
/And on and on and on./
Yes, unfortunately.
/Those are the repercussions for women "opting" not to stay at home and love their husbands rather than compete with them./
And, as I said earlier, competing does not always require hate. When two countries compete over trade, this doesn't mean that they automatically hate each other. And again, sometimes women don't really have a choice when it comes to work. And most often, their husbands - GASP - actually WANT them to work! Who could imagine such a thing?
/And all for what? Because "I get to do what I want" just like a 6 year old child says in a tantrum./
Uh, no, mostly that happens with sexist beasts who call themselves men when confronted about their immoral behavior. "What do you mean, I can't have sex with my wife whenever I want, even when she doesn't want to? I get to do what I want!" "What do you mean I can't punch my wife in the face when she doesn't have my dinner ready on time? I get to do what I want!" "What do you mean I can't nail that hot chick with that sexy miniskirt because she doesn't want to sleep with me? Obviously, she's asking for it! I get to do what I want!" "WAAAAA! Why are you men-hating feminazis so MEAN to me?!"
/in fact, "I get to do what I want" is the role model we are teaching our children. But it fits with the popular song of the 70's: "What's Love Got To Do With It? Absolutely Nothin'."/
Uh...I think you're mixing up two songs here.
/Then people wonder why our children are committing mass murder today./
Because, you know, countries like Somalia and the Congo that have used child soldiers have such a great track record regarding women's rights. Misogynistic idiot.
