Is there a problem with Laura? Isn't she giving her man what he needs?

I mean..a lot of men don't want it. I would rather work than be home with a screaming newborn all day. My friends and I were talking about this..can you guys STOP campaigning for it I don't want to eventually feel obligated to stay home for 6 weeks.

They were talking on the radio today about when "women rate other women." Appearance, clothing hem line, etc. etc. I know that I do not "rate" anyone, but the women at my job say they rate all other women they see. Sort of like "sizing up the enemy." Because the woman on the radio saw a woman in a mall wearing short-shorts and high heels. Felt it was wrong. Wanted listener's opinions.

Since I am told that women really worry about what other women look like, can you tell me WHY they care? Especially if the person is a stranger you will probably never see again?

What qualities does she have? How do you say you are liberal and not conservative?

Here's why...

http://www.cnn.com/2007/LAW/06/05/megadivorce.ap/index.html

It just isn't worth it! A woman can be a housewife and just wake up one morning and say to herself, "Hmmmm, I think I'll divorce my husband and take 1/2 of everything that he has....not becuase he is abusive or a cheater, but just because I feel like it" And our effed up legal system in this country awards her half a billion dollars.

There you go!

I just think its weird for a guy to have a pet chicken... his co*k would probably eventually end up in my mouth. It would be a waste to just leave it hanging around. What do you think? Would you date a guy with a large co*k?

ok, so she's not a PhD, but there's gotta be more than this for all these women to post negative comments about her? Is it envy? Are feminists envious because they are not beautiful? need some 411 on this.

Been hearing a lot of negative things about black women and I want to hear others opinions. I want genuine opinions.

If you say something racist, sexist, or even remotely too cheeky about black women I will report you. I just want to play nice here and find other answers and opinions than my own.

Thank you.

I ask this because in another answer I said I was not a feminist because I was not a militant or either had a degree in Women's Studies. But this answer was bothering me, and I ask myself why.

The first book on feminism I had "The Second Sex" by Simone de Beauvoire, made a lot of sense to me when I was a teenager. Since then I read many books, and most of them have made a lot of sense.
I teach my students (girls) to value themselves and believe in what they are and I have had to deal with nasty power games from males in my profession.

I believe in feminism as a humanitarian social tool. I believe that it fights for a better world for ALL of us.

My question then is, if I am interested in politics, this doesn't make me a politician. So how this relates to being a feminist?

Perhaps I have been all this time one and I am just intellectualizing the semantic aspect?

Say you were at your office just having a fun, flirty conversation with some married guy and they say to you at some point "you're too much woman for me".

Is it just the "no go" sign? or is he actually getting afraid?

I am wondering if you feel differently about single mothers than you do single fathers. I overheard a conversation between two teachers talking about a student in a "single parent family." The assumption was that it was the mother raising the student and , of course the student must be having problems with a mother like that. When the second teacher found out that the single parent was a Dad - all of a sudden he was a hero and maybe "we as a school could do something to help out". Help out? I never heard such a huge difference in attitude about parenting. How do you feel about it?

Seeing as a wife becomes her husbands property when married, should a husband be allowed to insure her along side all of the other objects he owns? No special category, just the usual fire, theft, flood and collison.

That way, when the wife crashes the car with her poor driving, the poor husband can atleast sue the other driver (or her husband, if she's married) with property damage.

The concept of the loving family is slowly dying with all these selfish feminists demanding to put their jobs before their children/family. Should it be illegal for a company to hire a woman once she's married and has a family going? Severe, yes, but effective.

I've been divorced now for almost six years. My ex-wife committed adultery multiple times during our marriage. One time I had to go to the health department to be tested for an STD. The other time that I know of she slept with a close family member of mine. I married her and she had two children already and we had my only biological child together. We lived together for almost eight years. Now here's the unfair and biased part. Although I had legitimate grounds for divorce she was still entitled to half and child support for my daughter. I consulted three attorneys on this (male and female) and I was informed that if I had behaved in the same manner. She would be entitle to more. Needless to say, my ex-wife go to live in our house rent-free for three years and plus for 18 months I made child support payments for my daughter while I had to live with my mother. I had the child support stopped because I was still was paying the mortgage where my ex and the children resided.
