Do you think the feminists are contributing to world wide sin?

Question

The following does not refer to some liberal feminists. The feminists encourage fornification, homosexuality, and prostitution, and many of the nations in the world are following this lead, such as with the U.N.'s signing of CEDAW, which legalized prostitution (all of the developed nations except for the U.S. signed it). They encourage fertilization without intercourse, and they are also against marriage.

I am not saying that I am against women, but rather the radical end of the feminist movement. Also, I know that homosexuals are both men and women.

Tracie, there is a difference between forgiveness and encouraging sin.

While an individual sanctions one's behavior, the feinist movement helps to increase temptation and encouragement of these bad practices.

I know that the feminists have made some positive changes, but many of the new answers that were put up have neglected the negative aspects of the movement, such as illicit sex and women having babies by medical fertilization by some random man's doner sperm. I am not suggesting a mix of church and state, but that individuals keep religion within themselves.

Answer 1

yeh i've met a girl like that she felt like all men should be exterminated and women should do everything through technology even reproduce
lol i hated her so bad

Answer 2

Heaven forbid someone does not value the same things that you do. I am a feminist (feminists are men too) because I believe in clearing up world-wide sin: intolerance, ownership of other people (because they are women), women who are forced into prostitution being mistreated and unrespected (not everybody has the resources you take for granted). I also believe that a woman should be able to get pregnant if they want to even if they do not have the permission of a man in their life (fertilization without intercourse- heaven forbid a woman has a child without a man's help). And I also believe that if people want to get married, they should. Their marriage really does not affect me or the women around the world.

You are totally misunderstanding what femenists are about. Educate yourself and then ask intelligent questions.

Answer 3

Before the women's movement began, children were getting raped by pedophiles and no one was doing anything about it. Before feminism, women were being made slaves in their own homes. Before feminism, women weren't allowed to be educated, work, let alone socialize outside their own homes.

The wars were rampant, men killed, mutilated, raped, not only their own families, but lands, other countries, and it was all acceptable because "men made the laws" which governed our very dysfunctional society.

They even used "the Bible" as the control method over their women/families. They had a right to beat, sometimes even kill if someone was disobedient in their families.

Which era would you have much rather lived in? As a woman, i'm thankful for the women's movement. They have made much progress in today's world, although there are still many obstacles to overcome.

Answer 4

Well, if the sins you state are the things feminists encourage, I'd have to call myself one too. Cool.

As I see it, all your so called sins come down to one thing: the right of any individual to live the life they like to. Now, you may have certain ideas on how people should live their lives, and of course you're entitled to these opinions, as this is a free country/world/whatever. I don't think these feminists that you mention are against marriage, they just want less rigid ways of looking at them. And well, trying to envision your ideas, why are you against fertilization without intercourse? It seems that you are opposed to the idea of intercourse. Let me break the news for you: people have sex, and they seem to enjoy it. And mostly they do it because they love each other and want to celebrate that bond. Are you against that? Or do you only want people to have sex when they are trying to fertilize each other? People are not cattle, as I recall.

Legalization of prostitution would be wonderful. If it wasn't for prostitution there would have been an enormous amount of rape and frustration. Women would not walk safely over the streets. Nowadays the people who do this job have to do this illegal, not protected by laws, and there's lot of abuse of these women, let alone the enormous amount of illegal citizens who are tricked into this business. It exists! It will not go away! It's been here since the dawn of time, so bring it out in the open, legalize it, tax it, and protect this profession by law. It would leave the police enormous amounts of time to solve more serious crimes, like drug abuse, murder, and violence.

It seems to me you want to tell the world how to live their life, and in your narrow vision it would mean that people live their lives following a book some men wrote 2000 years ago. Well, times have changed. And in some other way, times haven't changed a bit. Fornification has always existed, and will not go away. Homosexuality has always existed, and will not go away. Prostitution has always existed and will not go away. Fertilization without intercourse is a new one, wonder what Jesus would say about that? We don't know. No really, we just don't know, so we'll have to make our minds up about it. Couples that can't have children, are able to have them anyway because of IVF. Aren't they lucky? Or are they sinners and will they have to burn in hell forever?
Why fight all these things, why not fight against the abuse of women, against slavery, against social inequality worldwide or locally, against violence, against murder, against people not being able to pay for medical care, for education, for proper food?
It seems to me you rather see someone starve, but have a sinless life, then see someone sin and live peacefully. Well, that view seems pretty sinful to me.

Answer 5

A feminist would never encourage prostitution. No woman should have to earn her living on her knees or on her back and be at the mercy of men who use her for sex only. Feminists fought for equality in the workplace, breaking the glass ceiling that allowed women to get into power positions in corporations etc, equal pay for equal work and dealing with the issues of domestic violence against women. The question is insulting to the feminists who fought for the advances in the workplace and home that women have today.

Answer 6

You have some pretty twisted ideas. A true feminist would never encourage prostitution since this is a degrading situation for both sexes to be working in. Feminism encourages empowerment, seeks to overcome power imbalances in our society and seeks equality.

Answer 7

I think the this country as a whole is going downhill with the loss of values period. and yes the feminist movement is helping to move the country into the wrong direction.

Answer 8

So because we want equality (basic definition of feminism), we're contributing to world sin because we want the same rights as men?

Asking for the wage gap to end, the glass ceiling to be broken, reproductive freedom is all part of sin?

Is your idea of ending worldwide sin returning to a puritanical society where women were second class citizens?

No thank you.

Answer 9

This has nothing to do with feminists. Why are you so ready to blame them; got some gender issues of your own?
Prostitution should not be a crime because they're not harming anyone, and there's nothing wrong with homosexuality.
The UN vote only goes to show that the USA is lagging behind the world in yet another area. (The others: health care, refusing to go metric, etc.)
Men are the greatest contributors to "worldwide sin" as you call it. They're the ones who start wars

Answer 10

No. These are broad and loaded generalizations which refer to matters that, after all, are not sins. If you break down the legislation most groups are urging, you will find that they, themselves, are fighting 'sinful' practices that either exploit women or treat them as second class citizens.

Answer 11

I think feminists have caused much less pain in the world than religions have. Look at the holy wars, the crusades, the middle east, etc.

I think there is nothing wrong with encouraging people to live their lives the way they wish to rather than how some little book tells them to.
