Essay: "A crack in the glass ceiling?"

Submitted by anthony on Wed, 2008-01-02 10:07

Essay here. Excerpt:

"What price equality? It's apparently always too high for those who mistakenly believe they have the most to lose. One in four Norwegian businesses allegedly face the threat of closure because they have failed to ensure that 40% of directors are female - abiding by a law passed in 2003. Business heads have had five years to meet the quota - and a great deal of change has resulted.
...
Feminism was never about women competing in a male world. It was about changing the system. Women need an income and some also need a career that's paramount in their lives just like men - but at the same time, if capitalism isn't going to thoroughly destroy all that matters, feminism has also argued that it's important to fight to make the workplace more humane, the work ethic less all-pervasive, the rewards fairer and the personal sacrifices less damaging to children and relationships."

Affirmative action prooved that quotas do not work, yet here they are saying that around the world quotas have worked.

It's just so amazing how feminists completly lie about all thier facts and nobody calls them on it.

what happens to a socialist economy. the whole world watched the former USSR stagnate into oblivion. what's that they say about not learning from history?

we also have experience w/ appeasement, same related history lesson.

butt kissing has no national boundaries it appears.

that ole Viking/Norse blood line of he-men and strong women seems to have waned of late.

in agreement here that feminism acts like a virus, infecting and destroying all it touches. we would all probably be better off just letting women stay at home and mailing them a check every month.

yeah, they can do everything a man can do, if you constantly give them handouts. proof right here. we need go no further. justice C. thomas was spot-on about affirmative action. no matter how high you think you got on your own, with AA women will always have that real truth in the back of their minds, forever. he knows. he lives it. i'd call it a joke but whoever heard of a sad joke?

Here is a new article I wrote on my website. It was in response to men referring to women as "princesses, goddesses, etc" even when done in a negative sense(since we all know women think you "love them" when you argue with them.). I suggest men should never use these terms to refer to a woman. If you want to discuss it the link is at the bottom of my post. If not, well...just read it here and hopefully men can take something positive away from it...

"Women are not princesses, queens, nor goddesses. They are just women..that refuse to grow up.

I always advise men to never take a part in a woman's delusional fantasies. Men usually make extraordinary claims about women just to get laid, which is quite pathetic. The average woman is not a princess, a queen, a goddess or any of that other ******** men -- and women -- keep calling them. They are just women and most aren't even that since they have the mentality of a 13-year old girl for the most part.

Anytime you elevate a woman to some ridiculous ideological state you help set the stage for ridiculous lopsided relations between men and women. Women today are already too detached from reality without a bunch of dolting men helping them maintain their fantasies. Some men -- though not many -- are weak enough to refer to themselves as "slaves for women." This must stop. A man that bends his knee to a woman and places her on a pedestal is a part of the problem we now face.

You can respect a woman as a woman without "lying" and calling her a goddess or a Queen. Women usually insist on these stupid titles that they themselves know aren't true which is why they keep repeating them to men ad nauseum. One particular example is the Ameriskank Dana Owens; you may know her as what she "prefers to be called 'QUEEN Latifah'." The most pathetic part about it is neutered men call her "Queen Latifah" rather than her "real name" Dana Owens.

This kind of "Mists of Avalon" like nonsense must end. Women are not goddesses or queens. Most are not even acting like grown women. The "average woman" acts like a 13-year old in an adult body. Royalty is very rare , it is usually by blood as well , and the average skank you cross on the street does not fit the bill. Don't elevate women to positions that are not aligned with reality. In short, men need to stop praising women simply because many women are having a permanent identity crisis. Lying to women only makes things worse...for us."
