History of Feminism

Weakest argument they've thrown out there yet.
In another thread someone else used the same line that we shouldn't give a shit about electing the first female president here since it's been done elsewhere in the world. And then tried to make comparisons with some of the most fucked up right wing women out there, like we don't know the fucking difference. I bet they would love it if the GOP used that argument against implementing universal healthcare? Meh, who gives a fuck, they already did that elsewhere in the world, amirite?

Another jerk here to tell us that considering more women to higher positions is pandering.

You are celebrating a woman because she is a woman NOT because she is liberal or anything. n/t

Of course you can tell the difference but you are NOT celebrating the difference in this post.

I'm sorry I thought this was a discussion forum and not a mud slinging contest.

This is a safe haven group for feminists and like minded individuals, not for disruptive jerks

But this post is NOT celebrating that a man is on the verge of becoming president.
