i happen to like my bras. they make me feel pretty & supported. i also like cooking & baking for my man. and i like washing him in the bath & shower. because, strangely enough, making him happy in these small ways balances out the small ways he makes me happy. all sex is rape? neato! i always was into the kinky stuff. i do not want to be a combat boot wearing, dungareed, shaven headed, braless, man hating impersonation of a man, because i'm a woman! and i like being a woman. and, no, i can't put up shelves. fuck you! ...do you girls ever feel conflicted? like modern feminism is trying to make us feel guilty about being feminine and enjoying the traditional roles? why, if being a woman is a good thing, are we supposed to emulate men?
As the income-producing member of my domestic unit, it warps my mind because I also do the "female" stuff around here. Story of my life. Don't know what it would be like to let my hair down for once. Maybe that's why I maintain a gallery here.
Mothers, Godesses and Whores. This was the cultural expectation, I believe, now we have to add earner and sadly, what a friend calls Eastender Woman.
Damn i love women who love being women. Dolfette, that is just HOT! Bless you for that. I believe in equality and all, but there are things that make a woman so attractive. Them embracing feminity with grace and confidence. And I know women like men being men when it comes down to it. Change that tire, fix this and that, build this crap we just bought from IKEA, get us the fuck out of this mess and figure it out! Provide damn it! Alright, lets hear it from the feminazi's and gender role haters.
I never did understand the whole bra-burning thing. Symbolic, I guess. High-heels seem terrible to me, but I guess they probably don't burn as easily.
Isn't it rather a question of choice without being stereotyped nor criticised? Really, don't give a shit for people who judge you for doing what makes you happy when it doesn't interfere with anyone else. Such people have issues.
I've never felt conflicted because I have never desired to fit into the "traditional" or "feminist" roles. Who wants to fit into a role anyway? I doubt that you do Dolfette-but thanks for the interesting post regardless. I've gone on record on this site stating that I AM NOT A FEMINIST and the word makes me sick to my stomach. Does that and the fact that I love guns, sports, beer, and bjs mean that I am emulating men? NOPE. Does my preference for wearing "come fuck me" heels, having breast implants and, attraction to strong men make less "liberated"? No. Conflicted and guilty about my role as a woman? NEVER
I have never understood why those are bad things? Unless it's all for a demanding man who doesn't appreciate any of it
dickydrug, i am totally a feminist! women should have the right to decide what she wants to be. feminism is about the right to live as a butch dyke or a domestic goddess if you want. and i truly despise the feminazis for turning women like you off with the shit they spout.
my wife cooks and sews and looks great naked. She also likes to garden and makes stuff and runs box office for various folk venues, and does prison workshops teaching inmates about non violence. She used to be a ear for a rape crisis counseling service. She is dyke like, and she sure wallowed in my faggotty side with total approval.
But if you're really being honest, you have to admit that those feminists who could be considered feminazis are minority in the feminist movement. They are just a loud minority, whose quotes are constantly parroted by right wing, anti-feminists groups. By doing all of this, "I hate feminazis!" stuff, you're falling into the trap laid by people who hate all feminist thought and would prefer to go back 1800's era gender roles.
