I am with you on that.
Get your freak on but do it discretely. I don't want to know.

And just when you think feminism is no longer needed.

Because, much like in the video as we saw with the women's marches feminists are obsessed with their vaginas. And instead of actually helping women they'd rather try to convince you there are 87 different genders and praise men that get their manhood chopped off as an actual woman.

Wow, you don't know many true feminists of long standing do you? I've been a feminist since I started working full-time in 1971 and have fought what women have had to go through to get full rights and pay in the workplace.

I wouldn't say I'm obsessed about my vagina.....although I do love me some orgasms so if that makes me a feminist, cool.

I want to know who it was that said, "Hey... I've got an idea!" Then after sharing the proposal to make this song, and maybe even have it on TV, someone near them said, "Yea... That's a great idea!"

Holy moly! How embarrassing! I wonder what the parents of these idiots are thinking? Wow, just wow.
Agreed. I sent it to the GF. She's a regular hard working girl just like everyone else.

She said if I do something like that again we're through.

That's what feminism should be, but third wave feminism is weird.

Curious to know exactly what you feel it is needed for if not to modernize ages-old double-standards that free females from accountability for their actions.

Except today's feminism (third wave feminism) makes women think men are rapists and want to charge a man with sexual harassment for just saying "hello".

Not just that, but they're coming up with insane double standards-- For example, if a woman refuses to date/marry, she is strong and independent. But if a man does the same, he is a misogynist loser.

P.S. there's tons of videos on youtube and the internet. Only takes a quick search.

You're preaching to the choir here. I agree with you. I was saying to the woman who has been a feminist since 1971 that what she participated in was real feminism. Third wave feminism believes that boys who decide they're girls and undergo hormone treatment should play in the same sports leagues as women, even though they reached adolescence as boys. They believe that "white feminism is not feminism" (Google that phrase and see what comes up).

Last I heard, white women are women too. So women of color are feminists, and boys who take hormones and/or undergo surgery are feminists, but NOT white women. You can't make this stuff up.
