Feminist's daughter rebels to be a housewife

How My Mother's Fanatical Feminist Views Tore Us Apart

An interesting read about a daughter of a militant feminist who ended up rebelling to have a family.

What about the children?


The ease with which people can get divorced these days doesn't take into account the toll on children. That's all part of the unfinished business of feminism.

Then there is the issue of not having children. Even now, I meet women in their 30s who are ambivalent about having a family. They say things like: 'I'd like a child. If it happens, it happens.' I tell them: 'Go home and get on with it because your window of opportunity is very small.' As I know only too well.

Then I meet women in their 40s who are devastated because they spent two decades working on a PhD or becoming a partner in a law firm, and they missed out on having a family. Thanks to the feminist movement, they discounted their biological clocks. They've missed the opportunity and they're bereft.

Feminism has betrayed an entire generation of women into childlessness. It is devastating.

But far from taking responsibility for any of this, the leaders of the women's movement close ranks against anyone who dares to question them - as I have learned to my cost. I don't want to hurt my mother, but I cannot stay silent. I believe feminism is an experiment, and all experiments need to be assessed on their results. Then, when you see huge mistakes have been paid, you need to make alterations.

I hope that my mother and I will be reconciled one day. Tenzin deserves to have a grandmother. But I am just so relieved that my viewpoint is no longer so utterly coloured by my mother's.

I am my own woman and I have discovered what really matters - a happy family.

I love this attitude. I think it should be applied to more liberal ideas. We've got generations of liberal ideas not working. It's about time we assess their results, see the mistakes, and reject these false doctrines.

So many experiments gone wrong, so little time...

The problem is these are experiments with peoples lives.

The problem is these are experiments with peoples lives.

And the further problem is that these experiments generally have the media supporting them.

My favorite feminist inspired, media promoted idea is that men are blitering idiots. Just watch any sitcom today and you will see that the women are smart and the men are stupid and can never do anything right.

It is sooo tiring.


Then you have a whole society of females who think they are better than males and so we get legions of lesbos because of it.

I'm getting tired of everything in the world being my fault because I'm a white, hetrosexual, male and proud of it.

And it's even worse if you're white, heterosexual, male and CHRISTIAN. "Merry Christmas."

How about white, heterosexual, conservative, gun owning, Christian male.

That's about as bad as it gets. Someday they will try to put you all in leper colonies.
