Feminism hypocritically values objectivity.


Feminists believe society is androcentric, which I don't believe is totally true. Obviously men make more money, and politically have more power. However, I don't believe this is necessarily the most important thing to be valued. If the family unit is the foundation of society, then it could be argued that women have had more of an important role than femanists give them credit for in society. I believe that all people should have equal rights under the law, however, as far as the family unit and roles within the family, I believe it should be left to the individual to decide. My mom, for example, believes that women should assume the role of raising the children until they are in school. Some people may perceive family as being more valuable than economic and political power; for such people, caring for their offspring is the more valuable role to have.

I believe that feminists value the things that men stereotypically value (objective things), and are annoyed by the woman that disagree. I agree with feminism's goal of equality under the law, but disagree with its attempt to homogenize men and woman socially (people should be free to do as they wish under the law). Another disagreement I have is when feminists claim that men have always objectified women, it could easily be applied the other way around. Men have largely been objectified as being tools to provide sustenance and protection, while women have largely been in roles that allow them to value non-objective things like raising/nurturing offspring, etc., so I believe this is a purely subjective argument. The traditional male-role is equally or more objectifying than being a housewife (who probably has closer relationships with her children, for example). Another example of this is during times of war, men are objectified in a way that threatens their very existence in order to protect their families and countries. Valuing wealth and power is to value objective things, so regardless, people are going to be objectified when these are the things that are valued in a society. Feminists are unknowingly feeding into the valuing of objective things, which only exasperates the problem they claim exists. Objectification and dehumanization are the real problems in society; such things are gender neutral, and occur in different ways among the differently labled groups.

Why Feminism Is BAD! (destruction of the family)

Before I go on with my rant on why feminism is incredibly destructive to the family. Men and women are simply different, to compare men and women is to compare apples and oranges. Women have attributes that make them a vital part of a functioning society, and men the same; however, the the attributes that make them vital are different. Men and women are different, and are utilized within the family in different, however, equally important roles.

What I am implying here is not that women should not have equal rights under the law. Women should realize that they fill different roles in the family (and in society). Women are great, and very very important for society, they play/played a role that is/was so very important, and so unappreciated. Sadly, women are told not to be women, but to be "equal" to men (like an apple trying to be equal to an orange).




destruction of the family


Feminism is trying to make women think and behave like men; women are not men, period. Our society is losing our real-women, the women that are vital for the family to function. There is nothing more important in the world than the family structure. The family is the foundation of a society, and when it goes, so goes the society. The family structure still exists (barely), which is why our society is still hanging on, but given enough time, society will crumble (no structure can stand when its foundation is destroyed).

What are the signs of a crumbling society? Many of which could be argued to be caused by the destruction of the family structure.

-high divorce rates (obviously)
-loss of a sense of morality (highly sexualized culture, lack of honesty/trust, high corruption in politics, crime etc.)
-unemployment
-demoralization of the population
-lost sense of nationalism
-high amount of mental disorders/dysfunctions
-high drug use (stress issues, morality issues contribute)
-high amount of sociopathic behavior within population (linked to the morality, but important within itself)
-paranoia (people feel insecure not having a proper family structure)


I can't address all of the points made in the list (will in later posts). But I'm going to start with divorce. Why are the divorce rates so incredibly high? Well, because women are trying to take on the leadership role in the family, which obviously will create conflict. Feminist do not understand the importance of a good, functioning family. Like any social organisation, it cannot thrive with conflicting leadership. Evolutionarily speaking, men are leaders, is in innate within them. But perhaps equally or more important is the role of nurturer (caring for the young, the sick, etc.); women are just better nurturers than men, period. What we have lost by the feminist movement is the ability for a family to function (conflicted leadership with little or no nurturing and/or broken families). The family needs a strong leader to provide and protect (a shell), and a nurturer that takes care of the wellbeing of everyone (especially the kids). What feminism has done is destroyed the leadership-role that men are naturally suppose to assume (this isn't opinion, this is an accepted concept of evolutionary theory).

All social organisations have a chain of command, the organisations that do the best do not have conflicting leadership. And, an organisation needs more than just good leadership; in the context of the family, the women plays a very important nurturing-role. A family without a nurturer suffers, this has turned our society into a "day-care" society filled with kids that don't know what it feels like to be loved. Many kids today have problems feeling that they belong because of this (a bold claim perhaps, but I have good reason to believe it is true).

I wanted to keep this short and sweet. I will be doing many more posts on why I feel feminism is bad. Men and women are equal as far as both are important in their own unique way within a society (we need both) But, we should end the comparing of apples and oranges, for the sake of our society (feminist seem to want everyone to fit a masculine role). Obviously not all women are interested in having families, and that's fine. But, I also believe that there is a psychological importance of having a good, strong, functioning family. Now-a-days over half the kids have broken families. Broken families cause kids to suffer, and with their suffering comes consequences in the longterm. If we are unable to come to our senses, the future of our society doesn't look very promising.

Perhaps I am wrong however, maybe the family structure isn't that important, maybe women should continue trying to be men (they need to in order to be "equal"). I suppose time will tell. Maybe men need to start a new masculinism movement (a movement concept I will blog about later down the road).

Also, another important thing for women is to get with good men. If a woman gets with a good man, they will be treated as they should. Things like domestic abuse and excessive negativity in general is caused by this. Check out my post on cheaters for example, which talks about the importance of love in a relationship (click me!)
