Miss Misa, I'm sorry but if that reply was intended to rebut my argument, it seems to have had the opposite effect. You've confirmed the intent and malice of three of the four quotes, and your support for the first one was lame. Just imagine the hue and cry if a man said, "All women are useless!"
Again, I'm all in favor of equal rights (and responsibilities) for women. In fact, I consider it an urgent priority. But feminism has less to do with this noble goal with each passing year, and I oppose it.

You obviously have no understanding of feminism or you are using classic strawman tactics.
Also how does pulling a few quotes from self-proclaimed feminists make an argument? (Roseanne Barr? She's as much an authority on feminist thought as the Ku Klux Klan is an authoritative thought on American national identity)
As for Misa's support for the first one... how is that lame? I agree with it also. Perhaps you don't understand the context in which she is saying it or do you really believe that a women's identity and self worth is dependant on a man?
