Feminism is about women helping/trying to change the way a lot of men, especially those in power, think. Only by changing this thinking will there ever be true political, social and economic equality of women.
LUCKILY there are are many men (for example these here — http://www.engagingmen2009.org/24) out there willing to work together with women toward true equality.

Thank you. At least, with this email,
I can say that I tried. To hurt Mr. Adams’
feelings, I mean.

And as for being harsh, well, I say
Rep. Adams asked for it. He’s the one,
after all, doing something harmful to
women with this retarded bill.

Here, as promised, is the email I just sent out
to Ohio State Rep. John Adams (R)etarded,
concerning his attempt to turn back the clock
on the women of America, HB 252:

July 24, 2009

John Adams, Minority Whip
State Representative (R)
Address:
77 S. High St, 14th Floor
Columbus, OH 43215-6111

Dear Representative Adams,

I’m writing to you in regard to H. B. No. 252, which I understand has you as its primary sponsor. I have read the bill, and now have a question about it, and I hope that you have the time to reflect upon and then answer my question. According to the language of the bill, as it is written now, it appears that what your bill will do is make it necessary for a pregnant woman to get written consent FIRST from the father before an abortion is performed. If my reading of the bill you have sponsored is correct, then I would like to ask you if you are MENTALLY RETARDED. It is my hope that you will not take offense at the question, it’s just that I find it difficult to believe that a state representative would be able to propose and sponsor such a bill and not be INOPERABLY RETARDED IN THE BRAIN.

I think it’s a shame that you are trying to push for legislation that will set back the progress of women in this country. However, to be fair, if my intuition is correct, and you *are* mentally retarded, let me at least congratulate you for overcoming what I think everyone would agree is a tremendous obstacle to obtaining public office.

Sincerely Yours,

Rich Boucher

Feminism isn’t about degrading men, it’s about treating women and their choices as equal to anyone else’s.

“U. I. marriage is a permanent covenant. You all see men as sperm donors and checks. That degrading of men is the greatest threat to civilization. It is the heart of radical feminism and must be condemned. Men have rights just as much as women do to raise their children.”

No one is degrading men. No one sees men as sperm donors and No, unfortunately marriage isn’t a permanent covenant. A belief that it’s permanent, yes that’s true. This is a matter of who is the vessel for the initial point of suffering and I think you’re missing the point that until WE can carry babies on our own, we have no say.

Being a Man has nothing to do with what feminism says or doesn’t say. I’m perfectly 100% in my manhood regardless of what feminists say. The biggest threat to civilization is the belief that we don’t have to change. Even God made a change in his covenant.

Oh, for FUCK’S sake, this is just a RETARDED thing to say.

Republican David, are you seriously that thick in the skull?
I’ll say it one more time, s – l – o – w – l – y, so that you
can digest this:

What Representative Adams is trying to do here is to CONTROL WOMEN,
because he DOES NOT VIEW THEM AS EQUALS.

Tits or GTFO, David!

And until the level of responsibility for raising the child are equal, you should not be an equal partner in the decision to have the child. Otherwise you are known for trying to control the lives of women, not in making sure that children are wanted and well taken care of.

In case you missed it my solution was to let the man have the child the mother doesn’t want. Wouldn’t he have primary responsibility for the child including financial? How would that be shirking a responsibility? I know that you can read so why aren’t you?

U. I. marriage is a permanent covenant. You all see men as sperm donors and checks. That degrading of men is the greatest threat to civilization. It is the heart of radical feminism and must be condemned. Men have rights just as much as women do to raise their children.

I think men must sign a paper like this every time they have sex with a woman since according to the Republicans sex is for baby-making.

Yeah, and you try raising a child on that money – or half a child, I suppose. And those allocations ar eonly good if the father PAYS which, much of the time, they suck at doing.

“Considering it doesn’t cost 40% of income to pay for one child that is silly.”

Depends on how much money you make and if you want to make sure your child lives at least as good as you. See, child support isn’t only for food and clothing – but also rent etc. Much less then 2K – yeah, it took 40percent of my income to raise my child and at times even more.

“I would say let him have the child unless there is some reason which prevents it. Why make her raise a child she didn’t want when a father is willing? If neither are fit, there is adoption.”

Ahh….a living incubator and nothimg more…

THANK GOD men can not tell us women what to do with OUR BODIES.

This is a bill which will not pass out of committee in its current form so the argument over details about a bill in Ohio is laughable. That is why I would rather take the big picture as I did. Most bills of this type are spousal notification which are wholly reasonable as I said earlier. I wish you would tackle the larger issues but you choose not to.

College education is not a right and no one is obligated to pay for it including tax payers just by virtue of one breathing. Earn it or go to a place that you can afford. Work, join the service whether civilian or military or one can Many get lostudy and earn a scholarship. Many get loans. Respect the gifts of others who invest in you as a privilege and honor.

1. An irrevocable child support allocation of at least 40% of his income in the case that he does not marry the mother OR he divorces the mother. That allocation goes up — way up — if there is more than one kid. Said allocation of income goes away once the kid is 21 or out of college.

2. An irrevocable agreement to start a Coverdale or similar account for the baby the day it is born that he has to contribute a minimum of $100/month to in order to make sure college costs are taken care of.

3. An irrevocable agreement that if he inherits any money, 20% gets put in the kid’s name.

So I think that if all of these men want a say, they’d be willing to make an ironclad offer of lifetime monetary support at a pretty hefty level — it is for the kids, you know.
