    I'm having a problem following you.

    Is the nickel dime thing an analogy about a non-sequitur about how feminism is still an equality movement even though they're working to make women do all the prestigious, fun, rewarding, easy, safe jobs and men do all the dirty, demanding, grueling, demeaning jobs???

    How can a movement that counts inequalities as victories stand for equality???

    That’s what “you people” say?Yeah it’s really the liberals that bash gay people Ha ha ha. I’m sure those neo-Nazis support gay rights and I’m sure all those white supremacists support gay rights. I guess you just belong to the religion of the gay cult...
    Feminists are not homophobic and most gay people are not anti-feminist but I guess there are exceptions like you who see fighting for equal rights as a cult. Like most of the population..big cult!! Hope you don’t get offended when people say all these horrible things about gay people. And they sure say horrible things. But “people like me” fight those people? I have never met a gay guy who so hates feminists. Many people say men become gay because of horrible experiences with women. I never thought so but now I’m beginning to think perhaps a few do

    I have yet to establish that feminists don't want women working as garbage collectors, eh???

    Well how about a Feminist who speaks for women and is so successful she earns more in one speech than she made in an entire month teaching???

    Why would anyone vote for someone who you felt was like a Nazi?
    Which debate did Hillary remind the audience that she was the woman six times? I don’t believe that. She might have a use the word women but that’s not the same. Hey it could have been worse she could have said that she knows more than the generals, that she is the healthiest person to ever be president, that she grabs oussies, and that no one uses words like she does.
    When did you become an equaliTerian?When one group had opportunities for hundreds of years it isn’t that simple to level the playing field because it becomes illegal. You act as though women and minorities who are getting the consideration that white males enjoyed for generations are not competent..curious, do you think the men who went to Harvard for over a hundred years without Having to compete with more than half the population, were not qualified?

    What is wrong with a feminist who earns a lot of money making a speech? By the way my speeches aren’t for women only. It’s for all teachers. But being a woman I did not realize how much I should get paid. It was one of my early speeches where the woman who hired me called me aside and pointed out that I should be asking a lot more for a speech then I was because of my book. She also laughed and said that I can’t charge her more. A sad reality I learned is that the more you charge the more they want you in the more they respect you. I would volunteer to speak at places like the Peace Corps and teach for America and difficult cities or assuage my guilt:bonk:
    You created another silly strawman argument. Believing that feminists don’t want women working as garbage collectors? If that’s what a woman wants to do good for her. But the reality is most women don’t want to do that work nor do most educated men.I still don’t know what you’re obsession with garbage collectors is

    Once again you don’t understand what the word equality means. Because there are more women going to college has nothing to do with inequalities.We can’t help it if more women are applying to college with higher grades. When 90% of acceptance is are women then we’ll talk

    It’s hard to discuss things with you because you create fake scenarios nobody is making women do all these fantasy jobs and no one is making men do all the dirty demanding jobs. But is long as you want to take off on that , go ahead. It’s so silly . I see Your imaginary future. Men banned from safe jobs and men forced to do grueling labor. LOL

    Statistics from the US Bureau of Labor Stats and Census in 2010 indicate that women comprised only 1% of that work force. Surveys conducted last year indicate that there's been little progress in the five-year interim—about 99% of garbage collectors in this country are still men.

    Sure. As long as the entry requirements are EXACTLY the same regardless of race or gender. Are they?

    There is nothing wrong with earning a bunch of money as long as it's legal I don't care how you do it. I just disagree with feminism I don't think it serves a purpose anymore.

    Grades aren’t everything. Diversity is important , extracurricular activities are important along with SAT scores .

    Women are avoiding the demanding corporate jobs? I think you should check on that because women are entering these fields in numbers never seen before

    You’re right. I don’t address made up facts. By the way I think it is great to have more women in the program ...it shows diversity.

    I'm willing to look at a list of rights that men enjoy that women do not. but you never seem to be able to answer that question.

    Clearly you realize feminism has outlived its usefulness.

    They can walk in the streets late at night
    Men still get paid more for comparable work. One interesting example I just read about is women are paid as secretaries and men are paid is administrative assistance and they have the same job but the men get paid more. The work is comparable,
