What was women's liberation truly about ?

Question

Before you answer think about this - Women's liberation was funded by the Rockefellers , Ms. Magizine was funded by the CIA , before women's liberation no women were taxed { workers tax didn't apply } and before women's liberation there were vitually no pre-schools because women stayed home with there children . In short I see women's liberation while on the outside a wonderfull thing , I thing people failed to see the underlining reason for women's liberation and no it wasn't for equal rights .

Question - Anyone agree ?

See links - http://www.prisonplanet.com/articles/january2007/290107rockefellergoal.htm , http://www.newswithviews.com/Cuddy/dennis53.htm

Only thing I am saying about the pre-schools is that children before womens lib didn't go to school that young .

I do check my facts , always have and here's some more links ot prove my case - http://www.savethemales.ca/180302.html , http://www.namebase.org/steinem.html ,http://www.fdrs.org/brainwashing_women.html , http://www.legalmomentum.org/legalmomentum/programs/sexualityandfamilyrights/abstinenceonly_programs_harmful_to_women_girls/

Answer 1

Set the bong down, homie.

Seriously, though...You CT types manage to create something where there is nothing. Sure, creating a larger workforce and more tax revenue might have played into it from the perspective of some people, but if you're suggesting what I think you are about the preschool part...I've got to chuckle just a little bit. =)

Answer 2

I don't believe 9/11 was a perpetrated by the US Gov't. I have found a link that basically supports my reasoning. It's an interview with reknowned left-wing activist Noam Chomsky who has reported on US Gov't abuses in other nations in the past. He argues that it is extremely unlikely that the Bush Admin would have undertaken such a complicated, multi-variabled attack in which so many things could have gone wrong and he and all his supporters could have ended up before a firing squad. I think he's right.

Nick Rockefeller sounds like an unknown rich cousin of the Rockefeller Family looking to make a name for himself. If Russo really believed everything this guy predicted, why didn't he make some sort of tape BEFORE 9/11 so that no one would question his credibility?

Sorry, it just doesn't add up.

The women's lib conspiracy only makes sense if you believe that women's lib is the reason for the decline in society. But that's a convenient argument for conservatives and nothing more. There are plenty of studies to illustrate that women's lib has been beneficial to society if you look for them. Ms. Magazine funded by the CIA? I don't think so.
Women weren't taxed before women's lib? Not true.

Answer 3

That's the same motivation that applies to people wanting to give illegal immigrants amnesty. Right now they are out of taxable base.

That being said, however, I believe that I should have a right to be taxed and contribute to society in that manner. I also believe that I have a lot more to offer than staying home. If this were truly a society that still provided equal opportunity we would have daycare centers at work and paternity leave along with maternity leave.

Edit: Education theory believes that school for children that young is actually positive. It provides stimulation for learning as well as social interaction that will help the child as they grow.

Answer 4

I've always dislike women's lib (although I do agree it had great benefits) because it took women away from family. Now, women who have a successful career are looked up to. Women who raise a family are looked down on. But I never looked at it in this way! Your questions always bring out the 1984 - paranoid - government scandal side of me...

What better way to get a nation dependent on the government that to make a generation (and those to follow) no longer dependent on their mother!? Your mother doesn't have time to raise you and teach you values and morals - so here comes daddy government to mold the children into what they need - subservient drones that are easily manipulated. And it is just like our government to make us believe that something is positive, when in the long run it is only for the benefit of itself...

Answer 5

It was about giving women more choices. If they wanted to stay home and raise children, fine. However, if they wanted to have children AND careers, that should be fine, too.

Now might be a good time to think about men's rights. While men have many more choices and freedom in the work place, they are still given the freedom to spend time with their families without unfair consequences to their careers.

Answer 6

Women's liberation was about the right to vote, the right to own property in your own name, and equal pay for equal work. I paid taxes, as did millions of women who worked -- at lower wages than men doing comparable work. Even as a teenager with a summer job, I paid taxes. I also could not find child care in the early 1970's, so had to work on a self-employed basis, paying both parts of social security.

Even then some women had to work or they and their children starved. The man works, woman stays home, paradigm was an illusion even then.

Read your history.

Answer 7

Well I hate to say it, being a woman myself, but women got the raw deal on this one. Women work harder than ever and you would think they get paid more, but they don't. they have to do a man's job on top of raising their children and they never make childcare affordable. In fact most wages are not enough to cover childcare and you almost need three jobs just to make it on your own. The government is practically killing single mothers because of the gas situation and there is no relief in sight.

Men also have lost common courtesy and general respect and reverence that they used to have for woman kind.
Society and families have suffered because of it. We really need our men back because in these times it is harder and harder to make it on our own. I agree with you the government has done a lot to subjugate women more than they have helped us.

Answer 8

Well, the women's liberation was for them to receive all benefits AND burdens also received by men. They wanted everything equal. But the movement was fueled mostly by grass-roots movements and individual support. It wasn't really pushed by corporations, big government, or other interest groups. And it wasn't funded by the Rockefellers. How exactly was the women's liberation funded at all?

Answer 9

Taxing the other half of the population and getting kids into the indoctrination programs earlier. You are totally on the right track!
I am a stay at home mother of four and I feel totally liberated not contributing to the tax system and being available for my children. I have time to read things and educate myself and my children. I am an equal contributor in my marriage. Life is good!

Answer 10

check your facts first...the origginal reason about womans liberstion was the right to vote.( see Suffargette Movement )..everything else was a side issue and various organisations jumped on the bandwagon purely for profit
