What are some qualities of the modern women that you dislike? I think for me, sometimes the things we call "impowered and entitled." A strong independent women. It's nothing really but a selfish and over-thinking of as deserving, of entitlement. It's just kind of prettied up. You know? When you really look at the core, its just another selfish person. . . I also hate the fact women are cheating so much more. Please don't take on the worst qualities of my gender! Please!(I'm a guy) It does not make things better for us as a society and the family. Let's work on making the good things better, not the bad things more equal. Seriously. But that's just me. . .
What are some of qualities of the modern women that you dislike? If any. . .
And if in anyway with the question, I have offened someone unknowningly. I apologize. Just an innocent curious question. I mean no offense. . .

How many strong independent women have you personally known? How dare you label and stereotype people without knowing anything about them?
I am a very strong and independent lady. I have 2 PHD's one in chemistry and another in world history. I also own a large international research company, where I personally provide jobs for other people. I am also an author of a couple of patents. Do you have any idea what that is? And how much dedication, focus and hard work it took to get here? I also am a wife ( 17 years and still going strong ) and a mother of a gorgeous little girl. I also take care of a sick father, who has Alzheimer's disease and lives with my family. Now, do you think I would have a need to struggle with entitlement?.. lol
I am also curious to know how can you call someone like me selfish? For someone who means no offense, you really choose your words carefully.

I am not sure but here's the problem, everytime humans are free from oppression, they become themselves, free to do what ever they want but also free to bear the consequences as well. Women's freedom is not responsible for the ills in society. Women are not selfish because they do not want their life to end after having babies. I find this double standard extremely annoying because it implies that men can do whatever they want with their lives and that's justified but when women reach for their goals, live their lives without laying on the cross for thei kids, it is selfish. I see the men whinning because suddenly they can no longer work 24/7 to attain high career achievements with the self satisfaction that their kids are home with mom. now they find that they have to pitch in or hire a babysitter and they don't like that.
I love feminism and the freedom it has brought to women, yes that means more women are free to cheat now more so than before but it's their choice just like its been a man's choice since the beginning of time to cheat or remain faithful. Both still have to bear the consequences of their actions but no reason why one gender should be free while the other is tied down.
Women are not selfish for wanting a career, home and kids, men are selfish for wanting the same but not willing to sacrifics anything except perhaps the life and career of their wives to attain such goals.
The changes feminism bring to society will take some time to be adapted to, but that is not a reason for why women should remain in bondage. I love feminism and i do not dislike anything about the modern woman more than i dislike things about the modern men. We are all people with freedom and how we express it and our choices say alot about who we are as individuals and has no bearing on feminism

i don't know if there are things that i dislike about modern women per sey but there are things i dont care for in people in general these days. none of which have anything to do with gender. as you said above a strong independent women = another selfish person - that could be an attribute of any one - man - women - kid etc---
have you researched why women are cheating more??? very interesting - i think it's a shame that anyone cheats male female etc.

They don't demand all that they deserve: 50/50 divisions of household chores, equal pay for equal work, equal leadership opportunities, and, most important, the right to live their lives freed from the reproductive slavery right-wingers insist upon.
They don't question where our beauty ideals come from, and never stop to think that they have a financial purpose. They tolerate society's endless double standards, whether its about women's having sex as much as they like, or cheating on their spouses as men do. They don't realize that a "representative democracy" should boast a body of representatives that at least resemble the populace, including its gender ratios.
They teeter around on super high-heels and tight clothes feeling empowered, that they're living in an age their mothers could only dream about, when in actuality, our society has taken huge leaps backward since the last great feminist movement.
Weird times, they are.

A woman who is truly strong and independent doesn't need to feel entitled to anything.
I dislike women who think it's OK to have the same rights without the same responsibility. If you want to be an equal, you have to act like one.

Sorry but women can do no wrong in my eyes. The only problem women have is keeping female friends. As far as the cheating, well, women do not stray unless men give them a valid reason to do so. Why should you guys have all the fun?

Maybe women are cheating more because men do not know how to respect women when it comes to relationships. Why should women become faithful to men when ninety percent of men are pigs and cheaters. When it comes to relationships these days, nobody has morals.

I suppose any guy who is unable to carry forward himself in the society with a respectable Career will not be much of a favour to any women. A guy with no self respect,dignity.integrity and moral will not be in e good books of any women too.
