BDSM And Feminism: Intertwined? How So?

[leo9]

When I think of the term "feminist" I automatically think of those women who are 'extreme' about it, ball-busters and what not...which probably is not good.

And when you think "Muslim", do you automatically think of crazy suicide bombers?

With the majority of 'middle class' families depending on the cost of child care in the area and how many children they have it would be a really smart move for the spouse that makes less money to stay home. Both from the monetary view and from the view of having a child raise by their parents.

Which is why, in my previous marriage, I stayed home and raised our kid. (And supervised the household slaves )

But a hundred years ago I wouldn't have had that choice, because even the most basic job I could get would have been better paid, simply by being "men's work", than one she could have got, with all her abilities. Sexism does oppress men as well as women.

I won't tell you what I think because it has nothing to do with this topic and it goes off into touching on religion leo.


btw, just a separate comment from another one of your quotes, the feminist movement did a lot of damage, as well as good. Saying women can "vote" now is one of the best things it has done, but it certainly only a tiny piece of what feminist movement gave us.
