The Child Abuse of Radical Feminism

[VanitasVanitatum]

Maybe people on these forums are saying that Feminism is different from Women studies ?

There are different ways, it would be good to specify which one you are talkinng about, I’m not up to date, but I think it is called third-wave feminism. Making these distinctions are important and save a lot of trouble on an otherwise moot point.

I think it is a Fourth Wave Feminism. This woman is in her 20’s or early 30’s as in Candace Owens who often come from the same perspective. Fourth-wave feminism deals with toxic masculinity and with boys expressing their femininity…

It could be a cross between the third and fourth wave but deals with male privilege.

From Wikipedia…

Third-wave feminists began introducing the concept of male privilege in their writings in the 1990s, and fourth-wave feminists continue to discuss it in academia and on social media Fourth-wave feminists have taken action to reduce and combat this “knapsack” by raising awareness of privileged and unprivileged groups

London author Nikki van der Gaag discusses the damaging effects of raising young boys with privilege, citing the Consultative Group on Early Child Care and Development, “a tendency to privilege boys […] does not teach teach boys responsibility, nor clarify what will be expected from them”.[65] Fourth-wave feminists have begun promoting solutions to avoid these issues, such as raising children as gender neutral.

Again Feminist Gloria Steinem had some radical views. She called every housewife a prostitute.

I think you are misunderstanding her point…she was talking about the monetary worth of what housewives do and if you paid someone to do those jobs…then she added that this cost wouldn’t include the costs of a prostitute …not implying that a housewife is a prostitute but the costs of supplying that “service” instead of the marital union.

I think you missed her point.

Why would she even bring up prostitution? She is insulting housewives in general.

Yep, you’re not understanding what she said. Let’s leave it at that.

Hoe else can you take it? She is saying women/housewives provide a service,( off and on prostitution) or what a prostitution would do.

She, herself, never married only for a very short period of time and never had children…

Pretty telling that the thought process of those who think attending this school constitutes child abuse is to criticize the mother for sending her kid there instead of joining the effort to decouple education funding from property taxes and adequately fund all schools.

This writer or video personality does videos on feminism and its effect on society. The four year old boy cannot speak for himself so decisions made by his parents do affect him.

The idea of schools and funding is a separate issue.

I wonder if this parent would send her child to a top rated board certified physician for treatment of a serious condition, or would she send him to a mediocre sub-par clinic for treatment, for the sake of diversity.

I’m glad that my parents didn’t choose my school on the basis of diversity. They sent me to a Catholic school where all the teachers were nuns and all the students were parishioners of the same parish.

But we did have socioeconomic diversity. My father was a factory worker; my best friend’s father was a physician. There were parents from all areas of the socioeconomic ladder.

Probably the most diverse environment I experienced was in the U.S. Air Force. Housing was fully integrated. There were people of every race, religion, and social background. So if she wants diversity for her son, she might wnt to get him into the military.

Yet in the military it wasn’t our diversity which united us, but rather our similarity: Whatever our backgrounds, we all lived by the USAF rules. We all had a similar mission to accomplish.

Diversity is a given. Unless you stay home and never leave, there will be diverse people in every workplace. In one of my jobs, my best friend and coworker was pretty much an atheist, another was a Catholic man trying to decide whether to marry or become a priest. Between them they ranged from liberal to conservative. We all got along fine.

Diversity is inevitable. It doesn’t have to be pursued. But now, it seems, diversity has become a fetish. The ultimate diversity is chaos and disunity.
