Obama, The Radical Feminist
Men’s rights activists aren’t too happy with Obama and his so-called radical feminist agenda.
As you can most likely guess, men’s rights activists view feminism as a “dogmatic belief in a malevolent, all-pervasive conspiracy that renders its victims helpless.” …Heh, “victims.” They also believe that (while comparing Obama’s affiliation with Jeremiah Wright and his hatred for American society) feminists blame every unpleasantness on the alleged shortcomings of men.
So obviously, these men’s rights activists aren’t very well-informed when it comes to the topic of feminism, which we already knew, but why do they believe Obama has a rad fem agenda?
Here are some points that were brought up in the article, saying “As you can see, Sen. Obama is marching lock-step with the radical feminist agenda, pretty much from A to Z.”
- Abortion: Obama endorses the entire abortion package, including partial birth abortion. The National Abortion Rights Action League gave Obama a perfect 100% score over the last three years.
- Child Support: Obama wants to spend $4.9 billion over 10 years to throw more low-income dads in jail. That will force more single moms onto the welfare rolls. Makes a lot of sense, doesn’t it?
- Contraception: Obama wants to expand teenager’s access to contraception. Remember last month’s comment that he didn’t want his daughters to be “punished” with a baby?
- Domestic Violence: The democratic candidate believes that women are never violent towards their husbands. (I guess Hillary laying tracks on Bill’s face and singer Amy Winehouse beating up her hubbie don’t count.)
- Gender Wage Gap: Barack insists discrimination is the reason why women chose to work fewer hours than men, and that needs to be fixed with stronger enforcement of the Equal Pay Act.
- Women’s Health: Obama wants to fund the separate-and-unequal “Centers of Excellence in Women’s Health” that turn away uninsured men with serious medical problems.
- Michelle Obama: An intelligent and charming woman, I’m certain. But is she First Lady material? I have my doubts. At a New York fundraiser, she tweaked the Illinois senator for not “putting his socks actually in the dirty clothes” – a necessary qualification, we know, for every man who one day hopes to become president.
And this is bad…why? Oh yeah, I know, because men deserve to have the last word when it comes to what women do with their bodies, right? Because you know, they know so much more about the bodies of women than actual women; I get it now.
Obviously all cases of child support not being paid is the fault of the economy and these men just having low income and not so much with most men not paying child support being deadbeats who either can’t or won’t keep jobs and not wanting to provide for their children.
All teenagers, everywhere, should have full access to contraception at all times. It has been proving that abstinence-only education doesn’t work and that even more teenagers are going out and having sex now because of the lies they are being told in the classroom. I don’t believe Obama misspoke in the least when using the word punished, either; in all cases of teenage pregnancy where a teenage girl goes through with the pregnancy and becomes a mother at age 14 (or 13, 15, 16 and so on) that girl is most definitely being punished–For not knowing any better, for not getting the facts at a time where she most definitely should have, for not being able to have access to contraception. Hooray for expanding access to contraception!
That or perhaps Obama spoke up about domestic violence existing and this writer blowing it completely out of proportion to fit in with the rest of this obviously misogynistic essay. Yeah, I think so, too.
To hell with the candidate who believes that women should be paid the same wages for the same work. That is just outrageous! What is this world coming to?
Again, the writer twisting words to make it seem that Obama does not care about the men of the United States. Nevertheless, three cheers for cracking down on women’s health!
Because women are supposed to be seen and not heard and definitely not possess a sense of humor or the free will to crack a joke. Joking with your spouse = bad, folks. Very, very bad. Michelle Obama, you should most definitely be ashamed of yourself for thinking that you are on the same level as a human being as your husband is. Ugh…
The article finishes with:
Barack Obama, the latest hen-pecked Democratic candidate who has pretensions of becoming the next Leader of the Free World.
Hen-pecked, huh? Because all women do is nag, nag, nag; didn’t you know?

Sex-Positivity
I'm passionate about sex-positivity and believe every sexual being should have the freedom to explore their sexuality safely and without condemnation. I even lost my ad network after my refusal to censor myself after reviewing feminist porn.So if you're in the market for sex toys, porn, books, etc. take a look at the retailers below, all of which are feminist-friendly.
Out Campaign
The OUT Campaign allows individuals to let others know they are not alone. It can also be a nice way of opening a conversation and help to demolish the negative stereotypes of atheists. Let the world know that we are not about to go away and that we are not going to allow those that would condemn us to push us into the shadows.
For sure he will be a great leader of a great nation!
I never cease to be amazed by the Right’s attempt to demonize center and center-left beliefs by tossing adjectives like radical and extremist in front of the ideologies which embody them.
Obama is clearly the best candidate, partisan hyperbole aside, when faced with the reality that the alternative, MCCain,(and BTW-wake up Hillary supporter-it’s over), has fully embraced the dogma of the religious right and has pledged to place the kind of Supreme Court Judges who WILL overturn Roe.
Vote smart. Inform yourself. This is perhaps the most critical election of our lifetimes.

Just pointing out – Obama didn't actually pay women on his staff “equal pay for equal work”……..
