Mockingbird Posted August 9, 2017 Author Share Posted August 9, 2017 21 hours ago, DocM said: And I've seen the same kind of moralizing among progressives. They yammer about women making choices right up until one that goes against their feminist dogma, like paying for college by stripping then becoming a teacher, nurse, etc., (common) then OH! BOY!, they're up in arms wanting the club(s) closed. Or being a stay at home mom, or being pro-life and NOT having an abortion. Yeah, whatever. Right... And who are these progressives?

I hate that clauses like that exist in contracts. Her doing that when on holiday absolutely doesn't impact her ability to teach young children effectively. And unless I worked in the security field or something similar, you'd be buggered if I was going to sign a employment contract that allowed them to check my Facebook profile etc. (which I've seen! Talk about an invasion of privacy) It's retarded. +Mirumir and DocM 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because you falsely label people "progressives" don't make them "progressives". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you do outside of work time is none of your employer's business. 10 hours ago, DocM said: And....progressive feminist Catharine MacKinnon , who in her book Only Words says she hates porn of all kinds, and hates the First Amendment for making it and verbal terrorism legal. 8 times out of 10, people who are so venomously anti-something in public, are usually secret partakers of that same thing.

Because 95% of the whining, argumentative, hyper-aggressive and just flat obnoxious enough to give feminists a bad name "feminists" are progressives. They drive away many potential supporters, male and female, with their campus and other antics. The rest, including our very feminist daughter, have at least a normal dose of common sense, manners, and don't behave like overly judgemental asshats.

PsYcHoKiLLa Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 (edited) Unless she was twerking in the school on one of the parents, what she does outside of her professional life, as long as it's not illegal has no bearing on her job at all. This is ridiculous. Was it some strict catholic school or something? Mockingbird 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you just made a random number completely out of out of thin air to support your argument. SecretAgentMan 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocM Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 (edited) More like a few decades of experience with the real thing, our kids experiences on campus etc. and not walking through the world with blinders on. And I'm not saying 95% of feminists are are obnoxious progressives, there are tons who are not and many centrist and conservative feminists who diverge on some issues and so are excluded from the 'Feminist Club.' I'm saying in my experience and readings, including their writings, and those of my family that 95% of those who are obnoxious tend to be progressives. +Mirumir 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Mirumir Subscriber¹ Posted August 17, 2017 Subscriber¹ Share Posted August 17, 2017 In Russia, they fire elementary school teachers who double as escort models on Friday nights. Twerking or "dancing provocatively" is no big deal...if her clothes are on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
