Spanish minister sparks debate about the limits of feminism

Story here. Excerpt:

'Not only did Aido announce a telephone hotline to help men adapt to a "new model of masculinity" and wife batterers to "channel their aggressivity" before resorting to violence.

She went as far as tackling the structures of the Spanish language, proposing that the masculine-gendered word "miembro" (member) be given a feminine equivalent, "miembra."
...
"All the fields are adequate for waging the battle in favour of equality," said Zapatero, who wants his Socialist government to play a ground-breaking role in promoting women's rights worldwide.
...
A "telephone for men" initially planned for wife batterers will also help other men "solve their doubts, because many of them feel lost" as the "patriarchal system" begins to crumble, Aido explained."'

I weep for all men in Spain. This fascist regime has begun their Marxist goal of redefining masculinity based on their own narcissism.

This 'equality minister' is happier than a pig in shit, drunk on her power as a feminist megalomaniac.

Having a feminist as the equality czar is like drinking coffee with a fork, it just doesn't make any sense.

I was in school in Spain the last year that El Presidente Franco was alive.

The fascists in Spain have been replaced by the Marxists now, but then if you've ever been in love with a Spanish girl, you know she runs from hot to cold every day.

Sometimes from cold to hot.

BTW great post anthony.

You know that surrealism as a philosophy and art movement started in Spain?

"Equality Minister?" Why is she not called the Equality Mistress?
