Are Feminists a dying breed?

It depends on what you mean by feminist as women haven't really needed any feminist organization for decades as most of what they have now they got using lawyers and a willingness to fight.

What they get from Feminists today is essentially nothing but bad memories.

The womens rights movement had a goal for equality and the feminists are a militant branch of womens rights who served a cause in rallying the troops when they needed a man to do their fighting for them... and these militant feminists were the ones to lead as most of them possessed great anger and even hatred that they were women in some cases demanding almost that women should abandon everything that made them women.

They used to fight for things like the right to vote... then they shifted to the right to go topless in public. Face facts, the Feminists lost touch with the women of the United States decades ago and today, even most crying out for womens rights don't take part or belong to any womens rights groups.

This study reflects what even the studies done by Feminists reveal as the majority of women don't like living in a mans world... but before you slam me for saying that, most men don't like living in a mans world either. A mans world is hard labor, injuries, always talked to as a slave told what to do how to do it and when or get screamed at with threats of how you'll lose your job if you don't do as your are told. Men work damn hard for low pay coming home to a family who wants him to be part of the family when he's so psychologically beaten down he either removes himself from the family or his worst character traits come to the surface as he's a slave at work but he's the master of his home treating his family the way he's been treated at work.

Working women understand this because when they come home, they're expected to still play the role of mom and they're so beaten down that they bring their work home with them as anger, frustration and simply being overwhelmed by life leading to depression and worse.

Then you have the children who are often left to raise themselves because even with their parents at home, it's as if they're being raised by strangers.

Another fact. In the 50's and even in the 60's, a one income family could survive as Middle Class. Since the 70's, inflation has been hidden by the government as it pushed for a two income household which concealed the inflation rate so that today two incomes are often not enough and women are rejecting the message they have been spoon fed that they have to work for a living.

We are now in the first generation of children raised by two income families where a third generation is often involved. As a result, women raised by working mothers and grandmothers want their own children to be raised with a stay at home mom where the kids will know their mothers unlike themselves who often grew up taking on the role of mom in their homes because their own mothers were working.

And what do they see the feminists doing? The same damn things they did in the 60's doing protest marches so women can go topless in public when the vast majority of women don't even want to go topless in public... and men would love it so how out of touch can you be when you're pushing an agenda few women want and most men would love to see?

There's still work to be done but now the shift is to gender and family rights as we need to refocus and find answers for the problems our modern family structure creates. We know at least one parent needs to be there for the kids and we need to reduce stress and work related depression. We need to focus on the family by focusing on who has the best earning potential to hold a job and the other spouse stay at home managing the household while monitoring an investment portfolio so if their employer shuts down to go over seas... GREAT NEWS because you have invested in your employers business and relocating could give you more money each week from your stock investment than working. Thus, you have the time and money to invest in a small business.

It's time for women to put the Feminists behind them like a bad memory and focus on gender rights because it's no longer about women or men, it's about men and women which is where the Feminists claimed they wanted to eventually get to in their objectives... we've been there for a few decades now and they refuse to take the next step so that the vast majority of women simply have abandoned the Feminist movement because it no longer represents them and hasn't for quite some time now.

IDK, it depends on which form of "feminism" you are talking about. Is the poster speaking of the radical, bra-burning, Gloria Steinham's of the late 60's and 70's, or is the poster speaking of the modern feminist who is more balanced and more protected by workplace laws, to the point that radical femi-nazi's are no longer required? I think the poster should clarify. I asked a poll question a while back about whether chivalry is dead and some of the responses would fit equally well here. I think that the day of the radical, "i hate chivalry", gloria steinham, man hating uber feminazi IS over. I also believe that the day of the educated, balanced, and legally-protected feminist is NOT. If a woman CHOOSES to be a sahm, then she IS exercising her rights as a woman. I think that now a days, IMHO, we have witnessed the results of mothers NOT being at home, raising their children, for now we have the highest juvenile crime, juvenile pregnancy, juvenile incarceration and juvenile death rates in American history. I put that blame soley on parents who chose NOT to stay at home with their children, especially the ones that "had to prove something" to men. I think a woman who stays at home to properly raise her kids is a far better woman than one who still thinks she has to prove how "tough chick" and career-oriented, anti-chivalry and materially obsessed she can be, re: feminazi..Hey tough chick...go raise a child then come to me with whats REALLY tough...yay soccer moms (the REAL tough chicks!)
