Third-wave feminism

What has happened to this movement and ideology? Is it sexist to expect teen girls to behave like ladies and boys like men? Why are some girls picking fights with boys in the school yard, literally pushing and shoving and taunting like "C'mon have a go, you wanna fight" and doing this day after day and if the boy reacts in anyway he is labelled a girl basher, even when it's the girl that throws the first or only punch... And men, why so many feminine men these days? And with movements like MGTOW (Men going their own way), which has spawned in retalliation to thrid-wave feminism,  are we witnessing the destruction of society as we know it?

I can't imagine most women talking about the fact that they have had an abortion....particularly women in happy relationships.  Why would they talk about it and possibly (probably) face condemnation and disapproval from others.

It is their business and their choice only.


Except to their good close friend like myself, who they knew would support, understand and empathise, and if necessary go with them to the clinic.

I have now said it several times. I'm not dark on the original concept of feminism, it was necessary and has empowered women.

It's not about people who aren't the "greatest" it's about self respect and self control and self discipline.

But society is not healthier, there are so many people, kids, taking meds for mental illnesses and chronic health problems associated with depression and anxiety. The divorce rate is through the roof, obesity and diabetes levels are on the rise. Teen suicide, self harming etc is way too common. I'm not blaming feminism for this, just disputing your claim that society is more healthy now...

Get us stats (not wikipedia) that this is the case. So  what  if girls are sleeping around none of your business. To blame everything above on feminism is rubbish. Society is healthier today as these issues aren't swept under carpet  anymore, they always existed. Maybe we are more aware of these issues because we talk more openly today then we did in the the past. By the way follow gen xer. We have along way to go in equal rights. I do not think you got what I meant by the comment I made about  the "greatest". I think your views degrade women and their roleS in society.

I'm sorry that the idea of women controlling their own bodies is so offence to you. The genders are equal Ha ha ha ha

If the condom was so full proof and taking into account sex ed starts in grade 5 or 6 in most schools, there should be very little need for abortions.  They should only be needed for those who have bocome pregnant from either rape or incest or those who terminate due to the ill health or the knowledge of birth defects, of which most if not all can be picked up via 12 and 20 week ultrasound...

 

There are women out there who have had multiple abortions, how could they not have learned their lesson from the first time. Yes it takes two to tango, but in most cases the "father" isn't even aware if it happened on a one night stand. It comes back to the my body my choice mentality that keeps the abotion industry rollig to the tune of 80,000 per year...


You are wrong. Nothing is 100% foolproof. multiple abortions? Most women consider abortion last resort. Glad you being listening to pro life propaganda.
