Democrat Fratricide: ". . . her ovaries were screaming at me."
2008-04-30
Blogger "Gryphen" @ "The Immoral Minority"

Okay so the other day I was thinking to myself, "I wonder how people are still able to support Hillary after all that we have learned about her?" . . .

So I went over and asked if the things that bothered me about Hillary was making any of them second guess their support. I mentioned her use of Rovian political tactics, her lack of charisma, that much of her popularity was reflected from her husbands popularity, and talked about her creepy-ass laugh. I thought that would open a dialogue where we could logically discuss the pro and cons of both candidates and then I could convince them of the error of their ways with my superior grasp of the facts. (Okay I may have come off as a little condescending.)

But what greeted my comments was completely unexpected and left little room for compromise or discussion. They took my comments as anti-feminist and anti-woman. WTF?

I am a guy who held a sign supporting ERA in the seventies. Most of the jobs I have had have been in workplaces that were predominantly female, elementary schools, child care centers, summer camps etc.. I have never treated any woman as an object even when I worked as a bouncer in a strip club. (It is a long story but I was desperate for a job.)

One woman went so far as to say that her ovaries were screaming at me.

I did not even know that was possible!

#9  come on now - this was never about feminists or male chauvinists or black or white oppressed or oppressor. This has always been about the kind of individuals who look for an edge (any available edge will do) to smack others off their life's ladder. These are mean spirited people who, back in the old days would have screamed witch or heretic at innocent people simply to achieve a selfish goal.

remember, it's better to have loved and lost than to be stuck with a jerk.

Works for either gender of jerk.

#7  If women think men treat them badly, they need to look at the feelings on the other side of the fence. I'm sure they'd get a big wake-up call. There are one heck of a lot of American men who are damned unhappy with American women.

TS,
Funny you should put it that way. I have it on very good authority that my ex made the decision to divorce me after one particularly unpleasant fight that ended quite abruptly after I told her that in the future, I would treat her just as badly as she thought I did. She got very quiet and didn't say a word for three days.

#5  Just had a Dave Barry moment. Come to think of it, "The Screaming Ovaries" would be a great name for a feminist punk band.

Maybe because it never was about fairness or justice or equality Dimwit - it was and still is about POWER. By your own writing you still, this late in the movie, haven't achieved your Col. Nicholson* moment,"What have I done?"

#2  Anybody here read Dr. Helen on the male "marriage strike?" Every time she writes an article talking about how men get the dirty end of the stick in male-female relationships she gets HUGE numbers of comments, most of which tell her even she doesn't know how bad it really is. If women think men treat them badly, they need to look at the feelings on the other side of the fence. I'm sure they'd get a big wake-up call. There are one heck of a lot of American men who are damned unhappy with American women.

#1  Welcome to the feminazi reality. You must put women above you at all times while telling what trash you are. Any deviation from admitting that you are scum because you are male will result in you being labeled a "chauvinist".
