Gender Studies - September 2007

Recently there's been a surge in the age old knowledge used by men to attract & keep women, however only 90-95% of men know of and use this. I wonder, do women use or know of similar techniques and or strategies to meet & keep men?

Fertility clinics are often used by single women. Women get pregnant without knowing or caring who the fathers. Courts also deny children any significant access to their father. It seems society has determined fathers are no important. Are they? Do children have a right to a father?

I do not understand how the fundamental belief that women and men should have equal rights has gotten so distorted. Any woman who has a job, who votes, who pursues higher education, does so because of feminists who helped make that happen.

Do these supposed feminists that hate men and think that they should be oppressed and hate sex, etc. even exist? I have never met a signle feminist who thinks or does those things.

So what do you say when someone says something bad about feminists?

The Deficit Reduction Act (DRA) of 2005 made cuts to federal funding for child support enforcement that will significantly reduce child support collections for families. Bills to restore the
funds (H.R. 1386, S. 803) have been introduced in the 110th Congress.
Millions of families rely on child support enforcement services.
The child support program serves over 17 million children, collecting about $24 billion dollars in child support annually. Child support enforcement services are available to families of all income levels. But most of the families that participate in the program are low- and moderate-income: 46%
are families that have left welfare, 15% are current recipients of public assistance.2 The vast majority are headed by single mothers.
Child support helps families make ends meet, leave welfare, and avoid a return. Child support provides 31% of family income for poor single-mother families when received.3

in contests that require some form of intelligence ? Like I dont know, pointing out how unattractive they are and nobody could value them for their looks, since they like it so much to point out that miss universe probably wont make the noble prize. Or we could go even further and point out that intelligent women as a whole are utterly useless since they never produced anything of value, except for Kevlar and that good looking women at least entertain us.
Oh and before you say, Mary Curie it was Mrs. AND Mr. Curie, feminists who complain how men steal womens work like to forget that.

Why does an unavailable married woman wear a low-cut stretch top behind the counter in the bank? Does she feel the need to share her wares with men? Would this qualify as Exhibitionism? I don't understand the Cleavage phenomenon.

I asked a beauty-pageant related question a couple of hours ago... and I was shocked how feminists were spitting venom at women who actually DO contribute something to empowering women around the world and other noble humanitarian causes by participating in Miss Universe... take a look...

...beauty pageant contestants are probably dumber than 5 graders...
...miss universe is stupid and unnecessary
...miss universe is like livestock show
...miss universe is basically a T&A contest, etc, etc, etc...

Women do you want hypocrites like these to fight for your rights? What does it say about feminism?

Summary: A mother admitted to kicking her 14 year old son to death, yet after she spends her 30 months in jail (!), she will retain joint custody of the other child, and the father will still pay her over 3,000 dollars a MONTH in alimony. Is this is any way a just ruling? Is it indicative of a judicial bias against men and a willingness to downplay the crimes of violent women?

Any thoughts?

Women who adverise themselves on webcams for million of strangers. Or in Maxim magazine. Or join the WWE. . . Displaying themselves on such a regular basis's as just sex toy's. Is this Nature or is this Nurture? After the 60's and take off of Playboy. How much of this kind of stuff, is pre-progammed in women these day's. I'm not trying to sound or be, sexist in anyway!! It's just women historically are more known to do these things over men. Especailly in today's world, where women are just basically volunteering! Setting up their webcam's and what not. Impowerment and sexuality all that cliche talk. Is this just apart of this shallow times we live in? The over-sexed times we live? Are these women just attention starved? Because personally as a guy I'm getting kind of borde of a lot this stuff.
So really how much of this Nature and how much of this Nurture? Was this really the end game of the 60's and all that?

If this is a ignorant question don't hurt me. . . just a curious guy.

I completely agree that every woman should be educated, as that's only the responsible thing to do since you will be educating your child. However, I don't see the necessity for a woman to work outside of the home. If you have a passion for a certain career then the goal should be to make it into a career you can do from home while taking care of your children. These are your children after all and no one else is better equipped to take care of them but you. So why is it so important for Feminist for women to work outside of the home?

If you can't afford to treat an American woman in the way she is used to being treated in the richest country of the world then you need a foreign woman.

Is that why they do it? Because they are not up for the challenge and can't satisfy a woman with hearty needs?

Try to imagine you're yet to be born, and you're allowed to pick up a body to live into. However, you cannot have a perfect able body, only one between two:

Body 1: A quite ugly one. You'll never be graceful, neither pretty. But, you'll have a lovely voce, lots of languages knowledge and if no one would ever look at you, everyone would like to talk with you of everything you'll have to say. You'll live as an ugly maiden with a charming voice.
Body 2:The hottest, loveliest, sexiest woman who walked on Earth. Graceful, walking like a goddess on gorgeous legs, with eyes that makes men melt inside, praised as a living wonder, a pretty face, curvy and feminine body, luscious and lovely face, even in old age. Alas, you'll be born unable to hear and speak anything 'till you die, always relying on your now gorgeous body language, unable forever to voice your thoughts or hear any sound, a silent work of art, perfect but in a soundless world.

Which one you'ld choose? Why (in detail)?

Misandry and misogyny seem to be the same things at opposite extreme ends. On this basis, to me it seems they are as bad as each other and the groups advocating these ideologies are equally as bad as the other group.

However, can misandry be justified? I've heard women argue that because they have been oppressed for the past hundred years, its now time for men to be oppressed for the next hundred. A sign I read seems to encourage this idea - "Too many men and not enough bullets." If a man had a sign reading "Too many women..." what would the reaction be like?
