I haven't read this entire thread so I don't know if this has been said, but a few of the earlier post about feminism are confusing feminism with RADICAL feminism.
Feminism was never about burning your bra, and not shaving your legs and bashing men left right and centre. It was about having choices. It was about choosing to stay home and raise a family or choosing to go to work. It was about equal pay for equal work. feminsim is not the downfall of society. It's not to blame for over sexualized kids. We have to stop lumping feminsits into one giant catagory of extremists.
I'll admit I have been guilty of this. I've never liked to be called a feminist because I don't want people to lump me in with the radicals. But I suppose I am a feminist because I am all for choice. I want all women to be able to choose how they live their lives. If that means "traditional"...stay at home mum, 2.4 kids and a white picket fence, by all means go for it, if that's your choice. If you want a career and no kids. Super! I want you to have that.
Anyway, enough of my rant.
