"Misogynist" Musings on Women's Movements

Some random "misogynist" musings on women's movements (misogynist, because that’s what I’ll be labeled as by feminists):

  • I recently read through "A Conservative History of the American Left" by Daniel J. Flynn. He made a roundabout point (or a conclusion I came to while reading it) that the 19th amendment basically started the break up of the family unit. Instead of having a patriarch determining the direction of the family, you have two people with different opinions.
  • Despite popular belief, anyone with half a brain would know that the United States Constitution never prohibited women from voting. The state governments did that all on their own. In fact, at the time of the passage of the 19th amendment, there were several states that already were allowing women to vote.
  • If we repealed the 19th amendment today, nothing would change. No sane state legislature in our current climate and culture would prohibit women from voting or risk losing a lot of votes.
  • I know for a fact that my wife doesn't give a flying rat's rear end about politics. If she didn't vote, it's really fine with me. After all, I would have rather her not vote, then vote with her heart instead of her head. She has a good heart, but a good heart is what creates welfare programs. A bad heart creates deficit spending.
  • If you understand that all women are cursed by God to struggle against men, then you will fully understand the heart of the feminist movement.
  • If you understand that many modern feminist leaders have been abused by men in the past, usually physically, then you will know that the modern feminist movement is full of whack jobs who need help.
  • The modern feminist movement’s sole claim to fame was forcing all the states to legalize the scrambling of the brains of unborn babies.  The progressive era feminists gave us prohibition.  Fortunately, later Leftists has enough sense to allow alcohol consumption again.
  • If women are to be treated as equals in our society, then they need to abandon their movements and their group empowerments and everything else associated with bringing about equality.  This is because it is very hard to see them as a group deserving of equality when they are trying to force it upon us.  Men tend to push back when they are pushed and we also tend to be more violent about it.  Instead, try being acceptable in society as an individual and people will treat you with dignity.
  • Sexual harassment is really the art of determining a woman’s reaction to a particular comment or gesture without any foreknowledge into the behavior or personality of said woman.  In effect, sexual harassment policies demand that a man read a woman’s mind.  Quite the feat considering he probably can’t read his wife’s mind at all.
  • Women are at least equally inclined to spousal abuse.  Unlike women, most men don’t complain because while it generally doesn’t hurt them, it hurts their pride and sense of manliness.  Most of us would rather walk away actually.
  • If violence against women is truly a serious problem, then they should all be issued firearms.
  • If men knew how to treat women the right way, the feminist movement probably wouldn’t have gained much traction to begin with.

I know that these things are unpopular and that many people probably think that I’m some kind of deranged wife-beater at this point, but I don’t care.  I’ve been called a lot of things in my lifetime, as short as it has been, and I am happily married.  My wife is happily married as well and I will love and protect her as much as I possibly can.  Just take my word for it.
