It's been interesting reading the threads in the Feminism section over the last few days.

What does anyone think would happen if there was a feminist government?

And what if there was a radical feminist government?

I'm interested to know what changes would be made.

Obviously anyone can answer this, but as a man I thought I'd best put it in Dadsnet.

I'd not considered the nipple chafing angle. I see your point.

Back to the drawing board :(

Yes, but as someone said, I wouldn't want a job to 'make up the numbers'. Not great for your self esteem is it.

Phew, saved by SGM.

Am laughing at the 2Ronnies. Thanks for that.

Another tax break for big pants?

Girls allowed into Eton?

Snorbs..The fact that there are more men than women in a government makes not the slightest bit of difference to whether it's a feminist government or not.

On it's own then yes, it doesn't prove a particular government is unfeminist. But it's a bit of a hint.

Peter Andre would be banned.

Not especially, plenty of men are feminists.

It's quite entertaining when feminsts go on endlessly about men butting in and needing to have their voices heard (privilege yadda yadda). Sanjeev was apologising past himself for being a man for the crime of maybe, slightly, possibly derailing a thread.

Doesn't seem to cut both ways does it?

DirtyMartini · 11/05/2012 15:40

"privilege yadda yadda"

I'm not sure you've quite grasped the nuances of privilege as a concept. Part of it is that no, it doesn't cut both ways :)

Huansagain · 11/05/2012 15:40

Of all the men in the world why Peter Andre?

I must admit his music is shite. But what has he done wrong?

MiseryPlop · 11/05/2012 15:41

And the entire fashion industry

OH MY GOD Stewie, you are obv one of those MILITANT FEMINISTS who whould have us all in GREY BOILER SUITS with SHAVED HEADS you EXTREMIST.

DirtyMartini · 11/05/2012 15:43

Can I add Piers Hernu to the list of those to be tried?

CatitaInaHatita · 11/05/2012 15:43

Probably, a radfem government would outlaw pink, and possibly blue, as colours. Dresses would be out and probably skirts too. There would probably be a bonfire in every town to burn bras and tights.

I'd go the whole hog personally and just make dungarees and tshirts the only permitted clothing for both sexes.

CatitaInaHatita · 11/05/2012 15:45

Nope, that's me Misery. I hadn't considered the importance of imposing a shaved head rule. Ta, will add it to my little red book of feminist dictats right away.

MrGin · 11/05/2012 15:46

Will men have to wear under wired bras too ? please

DirtyMartini · 11/05/2012 15:46

And Nadine Dorries?

KeemaNaanAndCurryOn · 11/05/2012 15:47

But I need my bra. While I'm all for supporting the cause, its uncomfortable to run without one on.

Could we have cardis on the list as well for the colder months?
