Feminism is the New Quack Religion

Today I was told "I understand the love of children. But to make the leap to feminism is unnecessary is stupid."

There was a time when feminism didn't exist. SO DID WOMEN LIVE IN CHAINS AND DARK CAVES!?!?!?

Oh wait, that's right, the divorce rate back then was practically nil, everyone spoke and preached responsibility and accountability.

Today?

Today I'm told we "need" feminism. The person who said this made NOT ONE statement, assertion of fact, link, reason, article, or support of his statement.

He merely mentioned this as though IT WAS OBVIOUS AND CLEAR AND WIDELY AGREED UPON by everyone. Like saying "swearing is bad, don't do it." A blanket statement that simply cannot be argued with on MORAL grounds.

I mean, OF COURSE we NEED feminism! I mean..... shhhh..... CAN YOU IMAGINE A WORLD WITHOUT IT!?!??!!

GASP!!! PERISH THE THOUGHT!

This individual tried quickly and bitterly to dismiss me or even engage in any point/counterpoint argument as he was well aware HE HAD NO POINTS TO OFFER.

Like a robot or monkey he's merely REPEATING WHAT HE'S BEEN PROGRAMMED TO SAY.

People, WHY IS THIS THING, IDEA, PHILOSOPHY, ETC. NECESSARY, DESIREABLE, OR GOOD!?!?

Be honest with yourself. If you're answer is, well, it....its obviously something that's required given the type of things that happen today..... you see.....

OR ANYTHING THAT SOUNDS SIMILARLY VAGUE, NONSENSICAL, MEANINGLESS, OR PRESUMPTUOUS, THEN YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FUCK YOU ARE SAYING.

You cannot believe - IT BOGGLES THE MIND - to know how many GROWN, COLLEGE-EDUCATED ADULTS have made those same statements to me without being able to describe EXACTLY WHAT THEIR POINT IS, or just WHAT. EXACTLY. THEIR. ARGUMENT. IN. SUPPORT. OF. THIS. IDEA. IS.

It is literally revealed to themselves RIGHT BEFORE THEIR OWN EYES THAT THEY HAVE. NO. ARGUMENT. 

And even in the face of that fact, THEY CANNOT EVEN UNDERSTAND THEY DON'T RECOGNIZE THEY HAVE NOT ACTUALLY SAID ANYTHING of substance. 

NOTH-ING.
