A NeW Direction for Female Happiness

Kristine;
News flash: on the Web, CAPS mean shouting. And they are harder to read, not easier. My policy, and that of many others, is to ignore all posts made in ALL CAPS. So I don't know and don't care what you wrote about.

Thanks to Roman Polanski, we now know Hollywood liberals don't believe a woman has a right to control her body.

WOMEN KNOW WHAT CAUSES OBESITY & KNOW DANGERS OF THE PILL: ALSO, A BIG PROBLEM IN AMERICA IS OBESITY SINCE THE 1960’S, ANOTHER PROBLEM CAUSED WHEN THE BIRTH CONTROL PILL WAS INTRODUCED, BECAUSE IT CHANGES THE HORMONE REGULATION IN THE BODY, IT AFFECTS THE PROPER FUNCTIONING OF THE THYROID GLAND HORMONES WHICH REGULATES THE METABOLISM IN THE BODY AND FAT BURNING ACTIVITIES. ALSO THE BIRTH CONTROL PILL HAS STEROIDS WHICH ALSO CAUSES MUSCLES GROWTH AND MAKES WOMEN FAT, AND THEN, THE BABIES THAT WOMEN HAVE AFTER TAKING THE PILL, THE HORMONES PROBLEMS PASS TO THE UNBORN CHILD AND THE CHILD WHEN BORN GROWS TO BE ALSO FAT, AND DEVELOPS OTHER HEALTH PROBLEMS RELATED TO THE HARMFUL EFFECTS OF THE PILL, CAUSING LACK OF PROPER HORMONE...

WOMEN LEARN ABOUT ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE, IT IS VERY EFFECTIVE WITHOUT ANY HARMFUL EFFECT. SO YOU CAN HAVE HEALTHY BABIES AND BE A HAPPY WOMEN AND MOTHER. ABORTION SHOULD NOT BE AN OPTION, BE HAPPY TO BE PREGNANT AND TO HAVE THE BABY AND MANY MORE SO YOU HAVE A FULL HEALTHY LIFE. DON’T WORRY ABOUT THEIR EDUCATION, IF THEY WANT TO GO TO COLLEGE THEY CAN GET A SCHOLARSHIP OR STUDENT LOANS, ALL COLLEGES OFFER THEM. AND ANYONE NOW CAN GET COMPUTER EDUCATION IN HIGH SCHOOL AND GET A GOOD JOB. THERE IS NO NEED FOR EVERYONE TO GO TO COLLEGE. CHILDREN WILL BE YOUR ENDLESS HAPPINESS. MANY WOMEN WISH THEY COULD HAVE A BABY. THERE IS NOTHING MORE PAINFUL THAT WHEN A WOMAN REACHES AGE 50-60 AND REALIZES HOW MISERABLE SHE IS BECAUSE SHE HAS NO...

DO NOT LEAVE YOUR CHILD ALONE IN THE WORLD WITHOUT A FAMILY, THEY NEED BROTHERS AND SISTERS. MANY OF MY FRIENDS DO NOT HAVE ANY RELATIVES, NO BROTHER OR SISTER. THEY ARE THE LAST ONE OF THE FAMILY. THEY ARE VERY SAD NO TO HAVE A FAMILY. AND AFTER CHILDREN DIE IN ANY TYPE OF SITUATION, NOW THE WOMAN IN HER 50-60’S DOES NOT HAVE A SON OR DAUGHTER TO LOVE AND WHO WILL CARE FOR HER AND VISIT HER AND HAVE HAPPY FAMILY MOMENTS, LAUGHTER, DINNERS, TOGETHERNESS AND LOVE OF GRAND CHILDREN. THIS IS WHAT BECOMES THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN YOUR LAST YEARS OF YOUR LIFE. WOMEN, GET SMART, FORGET ABOUT THAT CAREER, WOMAN POWER, FEMINIST MOVEMENT, FIRST HAVE A FAMILY, AFTER THEY ARE GROWN UP, YOU CAN GO INTO THE CAREER OR BUSINESS WORLD AND...

Despite all the not so apparent benefits FEMINISM (i.e., Gender Marxism) has brought to contemporary American society, American MEN continue to do all the heavy lifting (90% of overtime, 95% of all work related deaths, etc.), pay the majority of income taxes. Top 50% of wager earners (Majority: MEN!!) pay 96% of all income taxes that support a welfare state that benefits women. Despite that fact that only 60% of American women work outside the home, they control 80% of all family income. They comprise 54% of the electorate. Thanks to affirmative action/quotas, Female-only technical scholarships, (e.g. Intel), Title IX, women graduate college 33% more frequently than men. Yet they still dominate the “fun”, soft-science, mental...

Reality: female-chauvinists (i.e., Progressive women) have been extremely successful in engineering what essentially amounts to consequence free, responsibility-optional lives. Thanks to their lobbying efforts focused on chivalrous male politicians & judges, women have the majority of civil, reproductive, marital, divorce, child-custody, and child-support rights in America. Result? Women are abusing “No-Fault Divorce”: women apply for 70% of all divorces while utilizing children as financial assets IOT leverage the largest amount of de facto Alimony: i.e., child support. Given their child custody monopoly, mothers commit 60% of all child abuse. Contrary to the implicit sexism of the $20B “Violence Against Women Act” (VAWA) women...

“First Wave” Feminism was ostensibly sold as “equality of opportunity.” This is perfectly reasonable. The book “Why Men Earn More”, by Dr Warren Farrell, extensively documents that when women are willing to make the same choices (same education major, same profession, same work hours, same work load, same personal sacrifices, etc.) as their male counterparts, women earn as much if not more than men. The problem is most women aren’t willing to make those choices. When this fact resulted in a failure to produce enough engineers & scientists to suit feminists, “Second wave” Feminism became all about allowing over-privileged women “equality of outcome” (e.g., Affirmative Action, quotas, Title IX, etc.) in the public domain while...

“At the Gentlemen’s Showcase, the ladies of NeW honored the top ten most-nominated gentlemen at ASU to show their appreciation for those men who treated women with dignity and respect.”

How about honoring the women at ASU to show NeW's appreciation for women who treat men w/ dignity & respect? How about honoring that small minority of women who understand that men have a right TO A QUALITY OF LIFE & can aim higher than being a wage serf slaving away to provide an acceptable “standard of living” for some over privileged, self-centered female & her children that may or may not be their, i.e. 4-10% at least 4-10% of women commit the most despicable act of domestic abuse: paternity fraud (lying about her child’s real father) w/...

There seems to be some good things going on with the "movement" but until men are ideologically factored into this organization in a wholesome way (think: "Nature Knows Best!") they are not going to blossom into happy females. "It takes two to tango" and life is pretty meaningless if you're not "in step" which takes into account a healthy consideration of the male's role and not necessarily or exclusively as the NeW female gender defines it either! One of the problems with nearly all social movements is that their ideology too often doesn’t line up with nature’s genetically encoded imperatives on the living and so conflicts are generated. One needs to start with our own true nature, embrace it, and then develop the social framework that...

The real feminists are those who believe in NeW. The Feminists that we hear about have no interest in independence and happiness - they are concerned with domination. If you read or see any of their works it all boils down to dominating men.

Few of the older feminists have any sort of marriage because marriages are supposed to be equal partnerships, not one person dominating the other. As a result, such marriages of domination usually end quickly with a lot of hard feelings on both sides. The older feminists use the results of these failed marriages to "prove" that women are happier by not being married in the first place.

All I can say is that I hope NeW grows to encompass the entire U.S. and all colleges. The young...

I wish your organization was around when I was in college... but it looks like I missed you by about a year :-) Ahh well, at least I found my happy place. I'm married and am expecting our first child in the next few weeks... and am thrilled that I won't have to go back to work!

Thank you for giving a place for voices to be heard.

To continue, I certainly believe in women having almost any opportunity that men do... if they can wield an 80# fire hose, so be it. I have 2 daughters-- one will become an M. Deity... the other will have 2 masters and likely become a health care administrator, certainly traditionally a male role.

Realistically, is it more likely that my M. Deity daughter to be will perhaps stay home for a few years to be with her children, maybe even permanently? Certainly it is. But nobody would suggest that women are less gifted intellectually or less able to be good physicians than men-- unlike AA products.

I would add that medicine and other skilled disciplines need the different things that women bring to them. We truly need more...

...practical matter was its insistence that women not be treated differently-- except when it was an advantage for them.

What do I mean? When I started with a fairly large bank as a management associate in the mid-70's, fairly soon we started having females as well, which was new then. For a while, the women put their hair up in buns, wore little to no makeup, and dressed as much like the men as possible. Finally, even they gave up on these martinet behaviors, which had caused mocking among the males.Many actually advanced faster than their male peers as the banks pursued makeup promotions (like makeup calls in football).

They put off having children, and some so committed to the career thing that they lost their nubile...

...if someone would take the position that happiness, regardless of gender, color, sexual orientation, or anything else, is NOT to be achieved by following a formula!

For any given individual, neither conservative nor liberal formulas can guarantee happiness. We know a great deal about what has worked and what has not...for other persons at varying times and in varying circumstances. We can talk about these things to good effect. What we CAN'T do is prescribe -- or, for that matter, proscribe -- for persons of our time and place, in confidence that by doing what WE say, they'll get what THEY seek.

If this isn't obvious, it bloody well should be.

being brainwashed into becoming "cougars:" women past their prime who dress inappropriately for their age and chase after younger men.

Why is the Left so hot to brainwash women at the end of their fertile years to ignore that ticking biological clock?

The same old Zero Population Growth motive that led them to brainwash women to have children late, and to only have one or two, and to abandon them to the inadequate school systems as they go off to work like men, and leave them with the nanny who can't speak English.

I say, let the Lefties do all this, and let conservative women encourage each other, and raise their daughters to pursue the most important job in the world: creating and raising the next generation of...

University DID need men in their lives, but were brainwashed to behave as if that were not true.

When they are 65, past their years of attractiveness, and childless, they look around at their wise friends, who married at 25, raised a family, and now have grandchildren to comfort them, and a husband who is gracious to overlook their wrinkles, they will change their minds, but it will be too late... too late.

Most everyone supports "Feminism" and gender equality.

Only Liberals support "Feminazis"

I didn't meet any women like my wife at university. I couldn't be happier now, but it seemed at the time that those who were there had no need for men in their lives, at least not on a long term basis. That's part of why I started going to church after university (though I hadn't attended while I was there), because I knew that I wasn't complete, but couldn't find someone who was also looking for their other half (and who fit).

In the 90's it seemed that femininity wasn't allowed on campus. I'm glad to see that that's changed.

just a brief word then I'm off to bed.

Like it or not it is a man's world still. *Generally*, women are still better off married than single-it is the fastest and easiest way out of poverty, for two are better than one on life's road; if one stumbles, his companion can help him up.

Great post. You said it all and truly.

Not at the grandmother stage yet myself; we still have a 14 yo here and none of her older brothers are interested in settling down just yet.

But I am grateful we made the choice for me to be home. So is DH, so are our kids, even though we like families everywhere have had our share of trials and tribulations. I never could see the allure of running myself ragged with the distraction of an outside job of any kind either though I do work on a part-time basis; Murphy Brown was no more about the reality of working women than June Cleaver was for homemakers. There are plenty of other ways to involve oneself in the larger world that aren't nearly as demanding or tiresome. I enjoy the...

Re your 6:32 post: I just read it aloud to my 84 year-old husband of 57 years. He would like know whether I am intended to be the Lilly in your story? The one who grabs men's crotches and infects the town with venereal disease? Because he didn't see the humor.

Yes, the TH filter is pretty funny. You can't use the word bast*rd if you are writing a critique of a Shakespeare play about one. You can't say Di*k if you want to write the full name of our former vice-president. And you can't use the Latin word for "with", which happens to be spelled c-u-m, as in when a good student receives his degree Magna c*m Laude. I keep meaning to devote an evening to testing the TH filter and composing a list of its forbidden words.

100 years ago if a married woman was widowed or abandoned and left with children to raise she often had to move in with and be supported by a relation who would take her in, for example her brother. Sometimes she could get some very minor little job but few women then were prepared to earn a substantial living outside the home and those who did usually got paid less than a man for doing the same work. And up until recent years, many women stayed in horrible marriages because they were financially dependent on the husband even though he openly cheated with other women or drank to excess or beat everybody up or was molesting the young daughter.

If the women's movement did nothing else, it gave women a decent chance at economic...
