I have name changed so that my fb profile and MN profile cannot be linked.
"There's a societal shift going on, with freedoms women have gained, along with much of the civil rights stuff and all the pc crap that has completely distracted us from logic. Societal shifts create a lot of problems and that's what we're in the middle of. There is no going back, and I would not want to go back to the days where women wouldn't have the right to write on these walls, where we were just babymakers. What is too much power? You know that men still have most of the power. I sound like a feminist but I am not, but I have to say I do appreciate the fact that I am able to express my mind and aspire to goals at will. Feminism is a double-edged sword...freedoms, but then has played a large part in the breaking down of marriage...breaking down of the family, big hand of the government happily reaching into broken families, becoming parents for our children and the taxpayer funding it all. It's a mess...but we're in the middle of a shift.
I believe there are people who genuinely need help....it's those able bodies who ride on welfare and we do nothing about...they teach their children to live as they do and create more bloodsuckers dependent on the government, which is growing and becoming the mother to all of them. Liberals want this because the more dependent the people become, the bigger government gets and then one day everybody is wearing the same shoes, eating what we're told, and no longer need to think for ourselves...
oh, and government loves this pc stuff. We all sit back and watch the ridiculous antics of our politicians and lawmakers allow genuine crimes to go unchecked just to be pc. It's all a part of the societal shift, and both men and women are the problem. PC is part of the problem. Not taking responsibility for our own is part of the problem.
I like having my freedom and don't want to give it up...not sure if the trade-off is worth it. But I think we can still have a decent society, happy marriages, etc...but men also need to use their logic as well, which is something I believe they need to work on. The wussification of society is partly their fault, too...
I know I've been preaching to the choir, here...and it's not very well composed, I've been all over the place with it...but I've gotta go to work. Hey, do you think that it could simply be that biology (hormones) is the problem?
What does one say to this sort of idiocy.
