Read any 2nd & 3rd Wave Feminist from Amanda Marcotte to Linda McConcheck and you'll find they'll agree with Ms. Freidman more often than not.

I'm not even going to bother, because trying to explain anything would be falling on deaf ears.
However, I said it upthread, and I will repeat it again, the link the OP posted is in direct correlation to this. SlutWalk - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Maybe you could explain why you brought **** Walk into the discussion since it originated in Canada against a Canadian cop who kind of called a woman a ****. You hauled that story into this thread which is about Rush Limbaugh, who so many call a spokesman of the Republican party and he was not talking about rape or any of the wrongs mentioned in the SlutWalk campaign crap. I didn't even know that that Fluke woman had been raped.
Explain it to me since your first posted link was off topic for this thread.

Roy, if you cannot figure out how the OPs link and the link I put up are related to each other, then I cant help you.

Please bother, because I'm not deaf and all you've done is insult not debate. And what I've discussed is in direct correlation to the issues.
The faux-outrage v. Rush and the middling cop in Toronto is NOT about protesting Rape or sexual assault. And really, who cares what Rush or some relatively minor cop said in a obscure venue? What all the faux-outrage is about is Feminists in typical Marxist Agitprop fashion marching to intimidate men and women into silence and preventing criticism of Feminism.
Don't believe me? Take the words of two of the founders of Sl*twalks;
Quote:
Co-founders Sonya Barnett and Heather Jarvis decided to use the word sl*t in their response.They observe that historically, "sl*t" has had negative connotations, and that their goal is to redeem the term.They write that women "are tired of being oppressed by Sl*t-Shaming; of being judged by our sexuality and feeling unsafe as a result."
As I stated, it's classic Marxist Agitprop because Feminism is gender-based Marxism.
Also, the critics of the 'Sl*twalks' put it better than I;
Quote:
British Conservative MP Louise Bagshawe has objected to SlutWalk "on the grounds that it "lionises promiscuity", which she says is harmful." She also added "promiscuity is not equality."Guy Randle has contrasted SlutWalk with Reclaim the Night protests, saying they "resisted the deep cultural pull to make women into objects rather than subjects, to be constituted by the male gaze... there was no way to watch Reclaim The Night and feel like, or be, a voyeur."At worst, it has been said that "SlutWalkers have internalised their abuse" and SlutWalk is "the pornification of protest."

Whats the point of discussing anything with someone whose mind is already more firmly closed than a bivalves shell?
You have already stated quite plainly what you think, nothing in the world is going to change your mind, so debate is pointless.
However, you do get a cookie for packing your post so full of neocon bullet points.
