RE: I Talked to a Feminist a couple of days ago...
As a woman nearing 70 years on the planet and having had a career in a very male dominated field ( computer repair). I see the pendulum swinging from one extreme to the opposite extreme. I am truly amazed at the vitriol being expressed at men, where is this coming from? The best work situations were always where we supported each other as a team with a common goal to do the best for the company and our self. Yes, I worked with some men who were jerks but I also worked with women who were just as bad.
I have stopped watching main stream news, much of this hate seems to be coming from that source...hummm...almost like there is an agenda behind it.
I feel it's a bit of a conundrum we're finding ourselves in. It's hard to speak up about the injustices of women, I have to tackle it very carefully. Yet it's far easier to talk about how men can be arseholes, I can just go right out and tell it like it is, no holds barred.
It's almost as if some women are running away with this idea that all men are this bad force and are powerless to stop themselves, but no-one is there to keep them in check. The media jump on the bandwagon, as do some men, because it's easier to talk about injustices than face your own hardships.
Also, women band together in times of pain, they talk about it and support each other. Men do not and we really need to learn from that.
