The media has many tricks one of it's main ones is it's choice of who to give the spotlight to.

Lawl.

Neither do I unless they are intended to sow discord rather than stand up for their stated ideals, which has been happening a lot lately.

Dude... Haha. Wow.

I AM a feminist. (Sorry to all you dudes who think it's your job to rate our looks. Oh, wait! Really not sorry at all. That is part of why I am a feminist, because I'm very tired of your double standards.)
What double standard ?

I do have to say I am disappointed at Tommy and Sirk (and maybe I missed another?) with their sh-t talk about women's looks. Guys, that is kind of disgusting coming from two people I consider "men."

On January 22, 1973, Roe V Wade became the illegal law in America. (Our legislators are supposed to make law, yet our Supreme Court made this one.) Since that date, every year, on the weekend closest to January 22, prolife people from across the country go to DC to protest.

This year that date landed one day after Trump became our President.

AND YET, of all the groups who petitioned to protest today in D.C. one group was denied. The Pro Lifers.

In its stead, NOW (National Organization for Women, which, BTW, stands up for women like the UN stands up for anyone -- it doesn't), intentionally set this up today to "fight for the rights of women."

Irritates the ever-loving crap out of me. I AM a feminist. (Sorry to all you dudes who think it's your job to rate our looks. Oh, wait! Really not sorry at all. That is part of why I am a feminist, because I'm very tired of your double standards.) I am also an American woman. Legally we have full rights. We have every single right a man has, therefore we do not need yet more rights. What we do need is men who can catch up at least to the 1970's and realize, "Hey, Sweetie, get me a coffee" doesn't work anymore, that "all feminists are ugly" is as ridiculous as "all white men who vote for Trump are angry," AND, if I'm doing the same job as a male counterpart, for as long as or even longer than he's been there, I deserve the same pay or even more WITHOUT making a lawsuit out of that. (Why do we have to fork over money to the legal system to get what we are rightfully owed, knowing full well doing that is probably going to have us lose that job anyway?)

BUT, today was supposed to be the rights of other Americans...

Whoops! And this is what happens when I hear stories from friends and family without checking them out. The Pro Life Rally is NEXT weekend. Sorry 'bout that. :eek:

Depends, there seemed no point to the one in my city. I doubt a couple of
hundred people marching in the UK is going to bother Trump or topple him from
Trump Tower. But it did mean a heavier than normal police presence was in the city
centre. Maybe those resources could have been used elsewhere.

I can't say I'm impressed with Trump from the media we get and comments this side
of the pond. But I didn't see the point to the march.

It bothered me more that several children, including some in pushchairs/prams had
been dragged into the march. Plus there was no womb to cross over the road (little joke,
see my earlier post).

What double standard ?
Ever notice the feminist liberal women protesting Trump are all ugly?
Well it is a known fact that conservative woman are in general more attractive then liberal woman... And this is more pronounced if the woman is a hard core feminist..
Seriously? A well-known fact? Want to show the science behind that one? And, since you're all about the facts and don't have double standards, where is the research for what the men look like too? I'm sure it's all a package deal, right? No double standards at all there.

(The all about the looks thing just kept on going too.)

Had you not taken what I said out of context, I did list the double standards I'm opposed to.

And thank you to the men who did speak up. Much appreciated. :)

Events today around the world show how much liberalism has managed to leech its way into the social fabric, especailly with so called millennials. We first saw it with the Brexit campaigns with demonstrations against racism and that anyone who wanted to leave the EU was racist bigot. The nation voted to leave. The New World Liberals were still labelling everyone bigots and uneducated. We saw how they took to the streets to protest against Brexit and well we know the rest.

Now we come to Trump, no one thought he would win, so the New World Liberals are crying again, this time around the world, seeing Trump as the ultimate evil against women and a racist bigot. Now we have the demonstrations again, esitamtes about 80-100 thousand people packed into Trafalgar square alone, many cities had other marches and turn outs against Trump. Really. This is the UK idiots.

What has this world come to?
Like many a great movie.........the end!

I don't like the fact that it was heavily pro-abortion and they wouldn't let pro-life women attend. Not that I would want to attend, goodness knows. I care about women's rights, like the right for unborn women to be allowed to LIVE. Much of the abortion done in the world is done because people don't want girl babies (I'm talking about places like India and China) and yet feminists don't care about that.

This is purely what I'm thinking, not provable yet, and possibly won't be for quite some time, but I think there is a new group coming out in all the world. They don't have a name yet, but I get the agenda. The agenda is anarchy. They want no government for the sheer desire to do whatever they feel like doing. And what they feel like doing is destroying the fabric of society. Except, they too are pawns for people who do want power for something.

Here we call them BLM. (Black Lives Matter.) And we call them The Gay Agenda. I suspect another part will be stifled for a while longer now that Trump became President, instead of the candidate they wanted, but the next part was going to be about refugees coming into this country. What few are catching onto, and because of that, many are joining in, is they couldn't care less about any of that.

The vast majority of blacks in this country are afraid of the cops, but because of what has happened over the last 50 years. They are targeted around crime scenes based on color. AND they are pulled over in their cars if they happen to be black in a white neighborhood. On the other hand, this method works for cops because of the smaller group of blacks who are criminals. BUT blacks do not want cops to stop being cops either. They want the same protection as any other ethnic group because of those same criminals. BLM isn't as big as the media is making it out to be.

Demonstrators didn't smash windows at the Starbucks on Friday. Demonstrators were normal people in normal clothes. The thugs who smashed windows had ski masks on. Who does that at a peaceful demonstration, except people who plan not to be peaceful?

I've been listening to people who are homosexuals. They don't want special rights. They want equal rights. The people who go about the country, move into a neighborhood in a state where they know they cannot get married under same-sex marriages or cannot adopt AREN'T the vast majority of homosexuals. They are making a concerted effort to destroy the laws by using courts to enact their very-special laws. They know legislators won't do it, so they're intentionally forcing the courts to, with the knowledge there are enough liberal judges (and they know where to move to to find them) to destroy that law.

I suspect what we're facing is the beginning of another Nazi-like moment. Something like Hitler in the early 1930's, not the Hitler people recognized by the end of that decade. And the goal isn't an Aryan nation. (Then again, that wasn't Hitler's goal either, for anyone who thinks out who he was.) And, no, this group isn't like Hitler at all either. Their goal is to tear down civilization enough that they end up the ones in power in governments across the globe. What the plan is after that, I don't know. But I do think it is an effort to gain control for their purposes.

And the worse part is, just like in Germany in the 1920's and 1930's, we have set up governments in such a way that people are angry, and do want to get back at some unnamed force, so they will go along with the plan to tear everything down and start over. THAT was the power given to Hitler specifically because of what we did to Germany when they lost the first World War. And that is what liberalism has set the stage for to cause what we're seeing being demonstrated across the globe.

It's not the blacks. It's not the homosexuals. It's not women. It's not refugees. What it is is still in the shadow though, and many of those minorities are getting on board for their own possibility of having some power over their circumstances.

That sounds so conspiracy-like. I suppose it is, but I usually don't believe in conspiracies. That doesn't mean some don't conspire.

No conspiracy, just advanced stages of Liberalism and political correctness.

Whole generations are growing up being educated that everyone is equal, everyone has a right to whatever they want and the world would be a better place if people are allow to live where they like and sex with anyone they want to have sex with.

These younger people do not have the ability to see beyond a black and white approach they have been taught with liberalism and political correctness. Anyone who supported Brexit to leave the EU were racist, why was that? To these people just doing something which impacts on another persons life is wrong. Therefore denying anyone in the EU a right to move to the UK is racist, which is something that will happen eventually after leaving the EU.

These people are deluded into thinking that what they are thinking is mainstream and anyone who is a decent person will embrace this idealogoly. They were shocked at the results as they could not imagine the majority were racist bigots. Of course that is not the case, but the logic they live with prevented them from seeing that border control is not racist.

Border control; another issue to arise with Trump and yet again we see accusations of racism and anyone supporting Trump is racist.

It is not a conspiracy, it is a fact that decades of liberalism and political correctness are shaping the angry minority who were fooled into thinking that everyone else thought the same as them. Upon finding this out they now take to the streets to tell the rest of the population how they are all racist bigots.

What? All I said was beauty is skin deep but ugly is to the bone. And if you get that many people together how could it not smell like a hot foot forest? I'm very sensitive to smell.

What has this world come to?
Haters gonna hate; cryers gonna cry. This was nothing more than a temper tantrum, the result of giving participation awards to snowflakes and elitists losing control. I'm not sure if I'd feel bad if they all died from a plague. Not wishing it on anyone; just not sure I'd mourn their collective deaths.
