the attack and ugly on women the last couple years though, has changed me. but, i can truly respect what and who you are. i so know we come at this differently. that is the fun. you FEEL so good to me, and you come at life so differently on this one subject. but, i think how we walk life a lot, is similar. i would really love a girls night out with you.....

fluke is a feminazi because she sat in front of congress and RESPECTFULLY and intellectually expressed her views. she should hang her head in shame?

men do not use it on women because they have done a single damn thing to feel shameful about or apologize for. they use it cause they do not like what they hear and they WANT a woman to be humiliated with an insult.

nope.

anyone use it on me would get a simple fuck you, before i walked away, head held high cause i know what a pathetic little man he is.

I agree with you that the jokey thing in the OP is too close to owning it and less like the 'yeah cause we want to invade Poland' one...

I'm not a fan of attempting to reclaim words until a certain amount of progress has been made, and even then usage is problematic. And IMO we are nowhere near the point where we can reclaim any anti woman slurs.

It's atrocious. Making fun of what's become a common term is simply one way to combat it. Laugh it into submission, as it were.

I also found a graphic that said "Death to Feminazi's" with a skull and crossbones. Oy.

Mon Aug 19, 2013, 12:15 PM

is for the "logical, analytically, no nonsense" man that a woman goes all over the place before getting to the point.

so

i took away all the prevaricating, all the consoling and coddling, all the softness out of my comments. just the facts. not offensive. not name calling. just straight to the point.

you know what i get? i am a bitch. if a man talks like i do, he is on top of it. being confident, authoritative, capable. when a woman talks like i do, we become a bitch. we have not done a single thing differently from a man. our error, is we have not accounted for and coddled the male ego in expressing our views.

taht is not our problem. that is not being a feminazi. and i am not going to play at "nice" so a man will listen to me.

what is funny. really funny. part of this thread we are so in agreement. another part of the thread we are polar opposite. now, philosophically, that is a hoot. you know what my son is majoring in? philosophy. on his way to a law degree. isnt that a blast?

word nazi, just pointing out the absurdity.

where as with other names women call themselves, that they adopted from the haters in order to null the word, "own" the word, i feel also is totally offensive.
