We can’t afford feminism in a recession

Three women lived in the same house. One was a judge, one was a lawyer and one was a feminist. One day they went shopping in an antique shop looking for a large mirror. Eventually they bought one and asked the shopkeeper whether it had any special qualities.

“Oh yes,” he replied. “If you stand in front of it and tell a lie you’ll disappear in a cloud of smoke.”

The trio took the mirror home and hung it on the wall. The lawyer stood in front of it and said, “I think I’m the fairest thinking person in the world.” Immediately she disappeared in a cloud of smoke.

The judge then stood in front of the mirror and said, “I think that all my judgments are perfectly fair to all parties in my court.” Then she disappeared in a cloud of smoke.

The feminist stood in front of the mirror and said, “I think . . .” And she disappeared in a cloud of smoke.

 

Most women and practically all men now realise what an utter waste of money and time feminism has been. Thinking and feminism are not even on nodding terms! As things started to fall apart in the 1960s, feminism rode in on the wave of liberalism created at the time. Even feminists have now been forced to admit that feminism was one of those things that seemed a good idea at the time, but it has backfired to such an extent that it has caused grave damage to men, women and children. This quote from Phyllis Schlafly’s article Academia’s war against marriage, published in 1997, proves the point:

 

“The Independent Women’s Forum has just published an issue of its Women’s Quarterly that is guaranteed to enrage the feminists. Called “Let’s Face It, Girls: The Sexual Revolution Was a Mistake,” it levels a broadside attack on feminists for teaching young women that liberation and fulfillment come from romping around like men in casual sex while building their all-important careers.

They are angry because they discovered too late that the cost of uncommitted sexual relationships is that “the window for getting married and having children is way smaller than one can possibly foresee at age 25.”

So, we hear the anguish of babyless fortyish women frustrated by their inability to get pregnant, spending their money and tears on chemicals and on clinics dispensing procedures with high failure rates. They’ve even realized that a lot of female infertility comes from exposure to sexually transmitted diseases, and that’s a high price to pay for those dead-end serial relationships.

In this Women’s Quarterly, Carolyn Graglia exposes the consequences of the foolish feminist notion that men and women are equal in their sexual desires. This myth, which is contrary to all human experience, has deprived women of the societal support they need to refuse to engage in casual sex.

Far from being empowered in their relations with men, women have lost control over ordinary relationships. Adult, educated women are now demanding that the government (or plaintiff attorneys) protect them from “date rape” and “sexual harassment” in situations that, in the pre-feminist era, unsophisticated high school girls could handle with confidence, knowing that a No would be respected.”

 

We are now faced with the most severe recession for many decades and things will soon get much worse with mass unemployment in all countries, and, as ever, when any country is in a position of danger it’s always the men of that country who have to sort things out. It was ever thus; all the pictures of men in TV adverts as being incompetent and bungling idiots with terribly smart wives are forgotten. The fictitious “G.I. Janes” and “Superwoman” are put on hold while the solid ability of men is trusted to sort out the problems. 

For years past, under the guise of getting equality for women, men of higher calibre have been by-passed in favour of the promotion of less able women. Consequently, we have had the building up of inefficiency in teaching, the police, banking and many businesses in order to give the appearance of political “correctness”. Equal outcome has been the order of the day. All that inability has now translated into disaster; we now need the efficiency of men to sort it out.

While businesses were flush with cash it’s been all very well to employ women of child-bearing age who at any time may say they want a year off on pay to have a baby while someone else is paid to do their jobs, but, with so many workers being laid off, that luxury can no longer be afforded; businesses can no longer carry such passengers who are unproductive.

It has been all very well in past years training female doctors who, when qualified, only work part time so that it takes two of them to cover one practice, but now we will have to rely on one man to do the job thus saving a lot of money on training which is not efficient.

 

Feminism has been an increasingly dying concept ever since we entered the twenty-first century. The recession will, for certain, be the final nail in its coffin.

  1. “The recession will, for certain, be the final nail in its coffin”

    I’m totally religious so I can’t help but see this recession as the hand of God doing some *serious* work!! Combating Feminism not least amongst the chastisements!

  2. Feminism at its best has always been about equal opportunity. Not about all women being some mythical superwoman. Just freedom for all people to become who they want to become, unfettered by what someone else thinks they should be doing.

    As for the hypothetical part-time female physician, where is her husband/ex-husband/boyfriend/girlfriend/partner? Why aren’t they sharing responsibility in child rearing?

    What is more important to the US than “Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness”? Efficiency? Dollar signs?
