Force, your problem is that you view feminism as an issue of equality and not as an issue of liberty. Feminism has nothing to do with equality. Its all about freedom.


The point of feminism is this:

1) Women are fully capable of making their own decisions about what to do with their lives.

2) No one has a right to tell what a woman what she can or cannot do with her life based on her sex.

Whether she wants to be a housewife, a science professional, an entertainer, an athlete, a congresswoman, a porn star, a mechanic, a teacher, a soldier, or anything else she might want to be, she has the right to do any of these things without shame.

...

The question of whether women and men are "Equal" is wholely irrelevent to the discussion, although I think its fairly obvious that women and men are very different creatures. No one is equal, All people are different, and all people should be treated individually and not on the basis of sex/race etc. Let us not confuse basic principles of liberty-- Equality of opportunity, and equality under the law, both basic principles of liberty-- with the rediculous postulate that "All people are equal"

Also irrelevent is the question of averages; irrelevent are study's suggesting, for example, that women are worse at science/engineering tasks, because there are plenty of women who excell at both science and engineering and there is no reason why these women shouldn't become scientists and engineers.

...

Force, what is particularly annoying are your rants on the immorality of pornography as, if i understand correctly, treating women unequally. You are the only one i've ever heard of who opposes pornography from the left rather than from the right. You have no right to tell women what they can or cannot do, nor do you have a right to censor artistic expression that you find offensive. If you don't like pornography, don't look at it ( i don't ). Also irrelevent is the fact that more women are depicted in pornography than men, this has to do with economics and demand, and doesn't diminish the freedom of people to do whatever they want between consenting adults, as long as no one is harmed in the process.
