But I was referring to Brittany's book...mainly...Can't loose something I never believed in to begin with.
People are people. Their character, their personality, doesn't need to be stuffed inside dated and sexist boxes to make sense of it and respect it.
Lol...it has nothing to do with the job you work. You can be a plumber and be sweet and caring to your husbandEverybody's different, Estro
Female car mechanics? Kinda sexy if you ask me.
I think they are bringing up one side of the issue, but its not merely a modern issue but one that repeats. To put it into perspective requires seeing it occurs repeatedly in History. There are times and places where women are overly protected and hobbled perhaps for centuries, and when that mistake begins to be corrected we call it feminism. There is regularly a need for women to prove themselves that they are capable of becoming whatever is needed, because all of society questions whether they have the strength/wit/humanity. On other other hand what these girls in the video are saying is very true, too that the feminist counter tends to make women feel like they have to pretend to be men. Its not just a modern issue though. Its not owned by modern feminism only, and its not a conspiracy to destroy women. In our case its a reaction to what has seemed like confinement and belittlement. All of the rules and customs can sometimes come together to create a single effect, and then feminism rages against all of it to bring balance and awareness and could yes overdo it sometimes. Suddenly holding doors for ladies is not Ok, and people wonder why. Well its just part of the foam upon one of the waves of the sea of humanity. As the current goes in and out this happens repeatedly. The ladies start to say "I don't need you to hold the door, because I'm capable of opening my own doors" despite no one having any intention of belittlement. Its part of the function of the big clock that goes round.What makes us girls is the new book by Brittany Pettibone, where she basically explains that women are losing their femininity, because of mainstream feminism.
I agree and thank you for saying that. I was reacting to your comment about mainstream feminism.Lol...it has nothing to do with the job you work. You can be a plumber and be sweet and caring to your husband
I just wanted to ask people what they think of Pettibone' s book...since she's engaged to an Austrian activist I know...that's all.I think they're wrong to blame feminism for the fact that women are living in a very patriarchal society that naturally reveres and rewards male characteristics.

Yes, I know Sommers. I guess Pettibone wrote that book after the #metoo movement, as she started realizing that man-woman relations should be healthier and should be normalized in order to avoid a gender war. Which is a term Sommers uses frequently.I haven't read the book. But from what I know it isn't feminism that is to blame per say, but radical feminist of which there are several variations. Christina Hoff Sommers - Wikipedia is a feminist I follow who has written some books on this as well. Perhaps Pettibone's books are similar in nature?
