Why Feminists Fear Men

Will the Dems' health care Christmas Present to America be an improvement or detriment to our health care system?


For years the modern feminists have attempted to completely obliterate the need for men in society. They have argued in favor of, marched for, and protested on behalf of the ideas that women can provide everything that a woman needs.

Go into any women's studies program on the campus of any major university and you will learn that women don't need men for economic provision, physical protection, or to even achieve sexual orgasm. Our daughters are being taught that to believe men are necessary for anything is not only pure bunk, but actually a sign of intellectual weakness.

As a result women have shunned personal relationships and sky-rocketed to the top of the business world. Their incomes have increased as they have put off having children, not to mention the thought of getting married till far later in life.

They've gotten themselves into the gym and lifted weights and learned kick-boxing so that at least theoretically they could ward off an attacker. (Of course they haven't been encouraged to pack fire-arms or conceal handguns because for some reason its more "progressive" for a woman to take male hormones and resemble eastern European male wrestlers than it is for the most lady-like among us to blow someone away if their life depended on it.)

Women have been inundated with auto-eroticism methodologies and lesbian love making techniques not only in these women's studies courses but also through popular culture, women's magazines, and cable television. They are also told by that same culture, be it prime time media or TIME magazine, that men at best "are clumsy" in this area, and at worst "just plain don't know what they're doing."

In making all these “advances” there has still been one major stumbling block for the argument of a completely female universe. That has been the production of sperm, male DNA, the missing element to creating a child when paired with a woman's egg. Without this necessary ingredient the entirety of the female-only existence is impossible, women's studies departments are useless, and feminism is nothing more than mindless brainwashing.

This week in what should have been reported as a miraculous breakthrough for traditional families and barren couples, feminists and the generation of media they have spawned hijacked the news of a new scientific development in the creation of sperm cells from a donor's bone marrow stem cells. On a side note chalk it up as one more victory for adult stem cells in terms of actual medical breakthroughs - whereas embryonic cells have still resulted in no known cures.

The way the process works is that adult stem cells can be "coached" into become sperm cells that can be implanted into the egg, fertilized, and hypothetically be brought to term as a human child. The process is in its early stages and even the medical researchers involved in the project are only cautiously optimistic about the practicality of such a discovery.

But that didn't stop the media for immediately lunging for the headlines that embraced first and foremost the idea of a "women's only" future. In fact the stories were also quick to point out that in taking the necessary cells from women's bone marrow that the Y chromosome would be missing therefore such conceptions would only be able to produce - guess what - daughters only.

Brave New World
Those same imminent developments in microbiology alluded to in the article, work both ways. It is useful to remember what Rebecca West, journalist, novelist and companion of H. G. Wells, said: "motherhood is like being one's own Trojan horse."

Being able to clone people has more ramifications than people realize, especially to females. Consider this; researchers from the University of Pennsylvania and elsewhere announced that they could grow working egg cells in the laboratory if they started with embryo tissue taken from a male mouse.

"These hothouse eggs and their accompanying follicular matrix were so persuasive they even secreted and responded to estrogen, the archetypically 'female' hormone."

Also, in September of that same year, Japanese researchers said they could create robust sperm cells in the lab, too — but only if they began with the embryonic stem cells of a male animal.

In theory, then, male starter cells could be used to make eggs and sperm, and those eggs and sperm could be mixed together to yield a new generation. This would be like old-fashioned, shake-'em up, male-female sexual reproduction (unlike simple cloning), a meeting of eggs and sperm. You could mix and match your fabricated eggs and sperm to generate boys and girls alike.

Except why bother with girls, if you don't need mothers to lay those little egg cells in the first place? You could still have robust diversity in the human gene pool without the need for pesky separate restrooms. True, women at the moment remain useful for their possession of another baby-friendly device, the uterus. But how long will this anatomical detail be an impediment to complete female obsolescence? Already, researchers can keep baby goats alive in an artificial uterus, a big fishbowl of bubbling fluid, for weeks at a stretch. A full-term, full-service exoamniotic cocoon cannot be far behind.

Yet another approach ... with stem cells it can be possible to grow an organ, any organ. Great for growing your own new heart, but also great for growing a womb. Keep the womb alive and functioning and implant the artificially created zygote. Brave new World here we come.

I have to wonder what females WILL have to feel superior about when they are no longer needed to incubate offspring.

Sillyness
Even as a lesbian I know the world would not be a better place without men in it. In fact I'd miss them and life would at least be much more boring.
