Feminisim IS stupid. Do you SEE some of these people in the Feminist movement? Total nut-jobs. I am all for equality though, and I see Sexism as wrong, but jeez... some people take things too far...

So yeah, I like the "everyone is equal option", but the "Feminisim is stupid" option stuck out more for me... XD

to be a feminist just means you think we are all equal and men and woman shouldn't be, like, paid differently for the same job and things like that.

...do you mean you hate extreme feminists or just feminism in general?

Well, Extremism... but that is true for all things with me... like Religious Extremists or Political Extremists or Fanboy Extremists... you get the idea... XD

And equality is good. Nothing against it at all. If both a man and a women have the same experience, then it is only fair that the women should get the same salary and treatment. Maybe I should have went with the other opition. Ah well... XD

There are lots of different types of feminists, I don't think you can say one of them is the "extreme" side because they have completely different ideas from other ones. I think what people automatically think of when they think of feminists are the Revolutionary Feminists, who are a tiny but vocal minority who hate men, want society to be a matriarchy, and say you can't be a true feminist unless you're a lesbian XD But there are many other types. Liberal feminists are the ones who wanted laws to be changed so men and women are equal, radical feminists are ones who wanted attitudes to change, and there are loads of others.

Actually, there are a small group of feminists called the Power Feminists who say women shouldn't complain about rape o.O But they're pretty much rejected by other feminists

I take sociology so...that's why I know this stuff. It's my favourite subject so I like to talk about it, I'll stop rambling now XD

D. Numb pain.

It's not an enjoyable experience until it's over.

Of course, none of that occurs until AFTER the water breaks. The main chemical is called Petocin.

True story,
When I had my baby, I arrived at the hospital a little late to receive pain medication. The contractions were unbareable and I was screaming for some pain meds but couldn't have any without hurting my baby. My water hadn't broken yet, so one of the nurses mentioned that the pain would subside once that happened. I demanded that the doctors break the amniotic sac so I could have some relief, the baby came soon after. The difference from the time I arrived at the hospital to the time my baby was born WAS ONLY ONE HOUR AND FIFTEEN MINUTES. This was my first and only child so far. The experience was nowhere NEAR enjoyable, IT HURT LIKE HELL.

Edit: @Rebbie's link, O.o isn't that the most retarded thing I've seen in a while. Why make a big deal out of individuality and what women think is cute?

See the women have spoken, Childbirth HURTS

It's true.
I have a daughter and she'll be 4 in September.
For obvious reasons the only picture I'll post of her are my ultrasounds.

Well, you posted a motivational poster, and those are usually jokes, so I was just following suit.

Joking sexism is OK. When you're actually sexist, then it causes problems. That's my philosophy.

[maisetofan]

yes good point :D
