Why do some women, who feel strongly concerning their views against women who are assertive post on this forum?
Gosh- I just do not get it.

I apologise for not being clearer.
My question is that we see regularly on this forum women who post questions to aggravate women who are assertive( feminists).
Why?
They have their own views which never can be changed- however they post very impolite questions and their answers are impolite.

It is a basic rule of politics, and indeed of all human endeavour, that no matter what position you take, you will receive some opposition.
Once you get used to the fact that you will receive some opposition, it no longer become much of an issue.
The trick is to listen carefully to those who are in opposition, rather than allowing a knee-jerk reaction.

Because some women who base their answers on emotion rather than logic and reasoning tend to make others wonder whether they have a brain or not. The majority of women who do have a brain are going to assert themselves and refute these answers that make no logical sense. Got it hun.

First of all I think all peeps should be feminist. But I have a major problem w/ 'assertive' feminist (as you called them). Haha...I've even been 'kick' off their little mindless one sided *cough* questions.
As w/ any group that goes to the extreme (PETA, NAACP just to name 2) whatever 'noble' cause they do not listen to another side...they get caught up in the argument. They pick parts of speech and spin it to find how else they can be controversial. It gets very annoying and it invalidates whatever message they are trying to convey more so than it helps.

People are people, Katie. Some women seem to have no lives, presumably because they are stay at home something or other (and are obviously unhappy with that choice), come here to take it out on others who are happy with their choices. I think it's called envy. Ignore them, as in don't answer their questions, and they'll go away.

Presumably, they post because, as you indicated, they "feel strongly concerning their views". That would be my guess just reading that question and having no clue what you're talking about.

They have to post it somewhere and Yahoo isn't an exclusive site. It's very, very public and very easy to use.

I think in general women are very judgemental and opinionated, I don't get it either, I learnt a long time ago not to judge people because you never know what life hold for you.

Because it justifies to themselves their opinion. They seek support from like-minded individuals.
