Brilliant repost straight from DAMMIT JANET! – One internetz for those folks over there, stat!
“If you are an anti-feminist woman and you vote — even for candidates who’d stop that nonsense in a nanosecond — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman and you enjoy the rights of contract and property law — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman but sadly divorced yet benefitting from family law reforms (allowing you to have custody of your children, for example) — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman who practices safe, legal family planning including contraception and abortion (we won’t tell anyone) — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman who wants to or needs to work ‘outside the home’ — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman who works and is paid the same as the man in the next cubicle — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman who has achieved higher education — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman in a profession formerly seen as ‘male’ — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman with recourse to sexual harassment/discrimination remedies in the workplace — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman who needs daycare for her children — you didn’t build that.
If you are an anti-feminist woman who took maternity leave to have those children — you didn’t build that.
And if you are an anti-feminist man whose mother, sister, daughter, wife, girlfriend, and female friends benefit from any of those things — you CERTAINLY didn’t build that.
Anti-feminist women love to SHRIEEEK: ‘Feminists don’t speak for me!’
No. We don’t.
But our accomplishments — and ongoing struggles — benefit ALL of you.
You’re welcome.”

Feminists call me an MRA whenever I express sentiments that distinguish me from a wallet.

And imagine how much farther along we’d be if you managed not to subjugate half the population in the process.

the industrial revolution subjugated women? the industrial revolution freed men and women from subjugation. you might want to think about where your irrational hatred is coming from.

Err, no. Men subjugate women.
Well thanks for attempting to tell me what I think. (subjugation anyone?)
Your opinion is noted.
