http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/fox-politichicks-feminists-cave-womenThe hosts of the web show "PolitiChicks" appeared on Tuesday's edition of "Fox & Friends" to discuss what they described as the dangers of the modern feminist movement.
"PolitiChicks" Editor-in-Chief Ann-Marie Murrell launched the debate, saying that feminists are actually "sexualists" because feminism "has nothing to do with empowering women anymore. We earned the right to vote. We have equality in the workplace. If we don't, we can fight that on a one-on-one basis."...
"What the feminist movement has successfully done, is really, as Ann-Marie puts it, sexualized women instead of feminizing women," Loudon said. "So, we are here with a new brand of feminism, saying drop the shackles of the old feminism. Its time for women who really want to be women, who want to be feminine, who want to be what God designed them to be."...
"They claim that we put women back into the '50s where women stayed home and took care of their children and their families," Murrell said. "I say that what theyre doing, they are like cave women waiting for caveman to bonk them on the head and drag them into the caves by the hair. Thats who they are. Theyre the ones putting us back into the stone ages."

Doesn't she realize, she is making opposite arguments ... women either have equality in the workplace or they don't. If they have it, there would be no need to fight it in a one-on-one basis!
But that said, if women have equality in the workplace, please explain the systemic male/female pay disparity.
