to sometimes think that I am the most feminist person here?

I have been on MN for only a short time and I have to say it is fun I like it here.

but I do despair: I sometimes seem to be the most feminist person here! Almost every thread seems to have women willingly subjugating themselves to their "D" Hs Ps Cs and ILs. Washin and Ironin and Pickin Up, being treated terribly but 'deserving' it (and DH rarely means it), happily changing names, wearing rings, and doing what the vicar tells them.

Or AIBU?

Yes.
Do you genuinely think that wearing a wedding ring is incompatible with feminism?

LetThereBeRock · 18/06/2010 23:20

I see you haven't met Dittany yet.

No - I am the last dinosaur feminist. my Dh quite happily admits that he exists to make me happy. He is currently downstairs preparing a drink for me.

I hadn't realised it was a competition but if it is so important to you then, ok, you win.

ThatVikRinA22 · 18/06/2010 23:40

one word.

dittany.

Maisiethemorningsidecat · 18/06/2010 23:42

Oh, I didn't realise it was a competition. Come a wee bit closer to the screen so I can pin your medal on your chest.

There - better now?

MumInBeds · 18/06/2010 23:44

Feminism is on some kind of scale is it?

Would you mind educating me by letting me know what thoughts and actions you need for each level please?

piprabbit · 18/06/2010 23:47

Oooh - do you mean like Farmville or similar games muminbeds. Is there something I should be collecting in order to progress?

Glitterknickaz · 18/06/2010 23:48

Funny enough I thought no that's Dittany too...

NickOfTime · 18/06/2010 23:48

oh, where is dittany when you need her?

oh, hubby, could you let me hear your thoughts on germaine greer's theory that you can't call yourself a feminist until you've tasted your own menstrual blood? i'd be fascinated...

Habbibu · 18/06/2010 23:48

Do what the vicar tells them? Hell yes, I'm am atheist and still ask "how high" if justa say jump...

pissedrightoff · 18/06/2010 23:52
