I guess the feminism crowd doesn't give a rats behind about the environment. lol

 

Maybe Madonna and Ashley will pay the cleanup bill?

 

 

Is that in front of Trump Tower?

I'm sitting down drinking my coffee and just watched CBS Sunday Mornings report on the marches. Here's their take after sharing a few of the protesters perspectives:

 

- The concern is that a President will turn back the clock on womens rights.

- The grab a womans crotch quote by Trump and aired during the campaign by Hillary encited a large part of this backlash.

- A lot of men with "women in their life" were there to support their loved ones.

- The hollywood crowd provided entertainment, evident by the likes of Judd and Madonna. Cannot forget Gloria Steinem!

- A chair of the event is a muslim who wanted the current cabinet to "hear her roar." We hear you ladies...we've never stopped listening!!!

- Also a young mexican girl born in America expressed concern about her parents being deported.

- And yes abortion rights are a large concern as well!

 

They covered a lot of bases and the trigger points that motivate and encite care, concern, and response!

 

I get it and congrats to those who participated not just in DC but nationwide and kept it peaceful. Interesting enough there has never been a larger protest in the history of our country.

 

My own observations are these:

 

- At no other time in our nations history have families more equally shared the responsibilities of the home. I have no problem admitting my wife makes more $$$ than I. And from a home economics standpoint I can run circles around my wife when it comes to laundry, cooking, dishes and still go out into the woods to harvest deer, turkey, etc ( didn't want you all thinking my man card was in a jar on a shelf ) :lol2:

 

- There are more women CEOs in our country than ever.

- I think woman have more power now than they ever have. Based on your alls relationships with your wives or girlfriends...please tell me otherwise! :bunny:

 

I look at this as the Hillary base marching to unify and celebrate the inauguration that wasn't...and there's no doubt they will be just as critical as the republican base was of Obama over this past 8 yr stretch. That's the beauty of democracy. The challenge is whether folks can cross the aisles and build mutual consensus and respect.

 

Time will tell...and BTW I've never been a very big Ashley Judd fan!!!

 

I don't want to hear Mrs C1 roar this evening so i better get those couple honey does done before she gets home from work today!!! After I WATCH FOOTBALL and spend a great day with my son...

I don't know but that would explain it if that is the case. At least there would be a point to it.

I agree. I don't understand it. I am a hardworking woman. I went to college on my own dime. Competed with men for jobs in a male dominated field and paid off said student loans. My daughter does not understand it either. She is a hard working woman who went to college on her own dime and will now go to UK Medical school on her own dime. (She is not thrilled that AJ is a Wildcat fan.) I have never ever felt that I have no rights or opportunities.

So here's my take:

 

I do not consider myself a feminist even though I agree with most of their platform. My reasons for this mainly lie in my belief that there are some jobs that are not suited for women. Men and women are just not equal in physical aspects. That's my opinion.

 

Ashley could have done more to communicate this young lady's message by dropping the Scarlett O'Hara interpretation. Obviously, it did not carry over when our discussion today is not the message but how it was delivered. Ironically, the conversation here also turned to Ashley's looks and whether anybody would kick her out of bed so what does that tell us about the equality and respect of women still today?

 

The comments that talk about Trump and his daughter and comparing Trump to Hitler continues for me to be over the top so that minimalizes her message for me. That continues to be a talking point for the women's movement and I'm just not as worried about Trump's treatment of women both in the past or during his presidency.

 

The language used does not bother me and the fact that it bothers some again kind of lends arguments to their whole message of inequality between men and women. Men use that kind of language; why can't women? Don't tell a feminist that it's not lady-like to cuss when that same language is tossed around in locker rooms across America.

The word "no" couldn't ,and wouldn't, be uttered by any guy on here ...

 

So you are trying to champion women by commenting on a womans looks and whether men are sexually attracted to her. Is there a more sexist comment in this thread ?

In men's defense, only one guy kept bringing up her looks. I'll give you hint, it's the one that wants every seat in congress held by women.

It's the same poster who mocked another womans looks a few months back he disagreed with. It's becoming a theme.

SF = a sexist-feminist. That's a new one :lol2:

Great post. I agree with everything that you said but have one minor quibble. There are times and places where certain language is inappropriate. Many men and women curse among close friends, in locker rooms and other informal settings. Most of them do not do so on a stage in a very public forum with many young children in the audience. IMO, that is what made Ashley Judd's speech yesterday very inappropriate.

 

Trump's cursing at campaign events, in front of network TV cameras, was equally inappropriate and it has nothing to do with the fact that he is a man, just as Judd being a woman had nothing to do with the inappropriate nature of her speech.

It's called being a hypocrite . You preach to others on a topic then post the most sexist statment in the thread. It's consistent behavior so I wasn't shocked.

 

To make a statment that everyone would have sex with her as if that is what defines a womans self worth is so degrading.

All done for effect yesterday in response to Trump's inflammatory statement. Otherwise, I agree with you.

It was a very ineffective speech. I am sure that it was well received by Trump's harshest critics, but I doubt that it won any converts to her cause.

Usually women clean up much better then that!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kidding, kidding.

 

I didn't realize there was a women's protest yesterday, I thought Trump brought all those women in to clean up the mess made from the inauguration.

 

 

I kid too.
