Feminist Gloria Steinem: ‘Gender Was Invented in Order to Control Reproduction’

(CNSNews.com) - In a speech Sunday at the March for Racial Justice rally on the National Mall, feminist Gloria Steinem said “gender was invented” to control women and reproduction and that “race was invented … to justify colonialism and slavery.”

“So all the women in the world are in some degree of trouble, because it’s all about controlling reproduction. It’s the why of it. Did you ever wonder why? Yeah I mean, the first step in every hierarchy is patriarchy in order to control reproductive,” Steinem said.

“So, and racism, caste in India, class. It all makes it much worse, because to maintain those divisions, you have to control women even more. So these things have always been intertwined. It is just not possible to disentangle these deep caste systems. It is absolutely impossible. They can only be uprooted together,” she said.

“So let’s just remember folks, okay that gender was invented in order to control reproduction, and we’re now disinventing it, right? That race was invented in fact in order to justify colonialism and slavery, and we have not done a good job in this country of uprooting the racism that justified slavery. We got rid of slavery, but not this,” Steinem added.

She also said that we “should learn from Germany and the Holocaust lessons that every child in German schools learns.”

Steinem also held native Americans up as an example, saying that they didn’t have the words “he” and “she” in their language.

“Was the people who lived here for you know 99 percent, the native Americans, the indian country still didn’t have he and she in their language. The idea of society was a circle, not a hierarchy, not a pyramid. It’s relatively recent that all this has happened, and I find it helpful - I don’t know about you - to understand that it wasn’t always that way,” she said.

That's me? Thanks so much, put me out of my misery!

While I do not agree with Ms. Steinem's philosophies, I at least thought she was intelligent. But this stuff is pure idiocy. It doesn't even make a bit of sense.

Sorry. You'll have to wait until I'm done to borrow the rope.

I keep wondering where these irrelevant lefties keep coming from. Steinem? Hitlery, who should be worried a bout her own fat ass instead of what other people own hit her NRA hate-on tirade again.

If the media wants to cover reproduction I got a neighbor with a buttload of rabbits.
