Forty years (or so) of feminism. Has it changed the way woman view themselves? Has...

[Justcallmetinman]

I know it is only a minority of them, but it is enough, and seems to be more then when I was younger; but whatever happened to he attitude that law enforcement was supposed to be and example, rather then walking around like they are special and exceptions to the rules?

Sin has increased as the bible describes! Hearts have waxed cold.
The screening hasnt risen to the occasion of the changing times. Also, I have read studies that reveal the type of personality that enjoy throwing their weight around and they make bad cops. They apply to be cops because they enjoy the power.

There you go

I am not picking an argument, or on the police. My cousin was a famous, well known NYC cop. So I know a little about it, second hand anyway. Respect to you.

Question.

What exactly is feminism, the defination of its seems to change depending who
you ask, what time of day it is, the gender of the person etc.

To me it seems to be a word used to describe butch, tough, chain yourself to the
railings type of women. Lol

So what is it exactly, does it mean women sticking up for their rights, equal payment, right
to vote, right to work outside the home etc.

Or is it used in a derogotive way to suggest a woman's place should be in the home if it
wasn't for feminism or to somehow suggest it goes against the natural order of things.

Or is it women pushing and pushing more to assert themselves to the point where
they want to be the boss etc.

Or is it just plain and simple common sense in that there is no reason why a person
should be discrimated against just for being female.

Or maybe it's all of the above etc.

One point I would add is that people talk of feminism as if it's a female creation.
But in the UK at least, the politicians are the ones who are pushing mothers out to
work whether they want to or not. That and the fact that most couples cannot afford
the luxury of one remaining at home to take care of the children even if they want to,
means that at least this specific issue is separate from the overall issue of feminism.

Does feminism even exist any more, has the world moved on from this, I think maybe
it has.


Is there a manism movement.

That women can work is good and that men cook and care for their kids and suck the dust instead of sitting on the couch being served and demanding, but that they want to take over is bad and what I see as feminism and all the bad stuff that came with it like abortion and babies dumped in day care.

Feminism has increased just as any other sin has. It most certainly has not ceased to exist.

Exactly! Feminism is women thinking they have to prove they can do what men have done for centuries. Women and men were not created to do the same tasks hence leaving the kids to fend for themselves ie latchkey kids or dropping them at a a nasty dirty overly expensive daycare.

The bible lays it all out. The world is opposite. Read the proverbs 31 woman . How is she going to be good at all that if she is at a job 5 days a week?

No the oil of ulay doesn't work that good lol. They have a lot of those pics, women don't want feminism anymore. It's something from the past, now we don't need it anymore.

Feminists complained that Dutch women don't want more feminism. They want to work part time. If a man also works part time you can both take care of the kids. Here they have dad days. Still a lot are in daycare, but mostly with the grandparents.

I didn't say that, I was simply addressing your behavior But then again, 15 years on the streets being a law enforcement officer makes me pretty sure you wouldn't be addressing me like that, Sir.

What behavior are you speaking of, maam? My behavior is stellar. Respect is earned, you know that. Men and women make the badge, not the other way around. If you or anyone else disrespects the sanctity of the badge, said people will be disrespected. Again, that's reality. I worked side by side law enforcement officers for years in EMS. I respect law enforcement but I do not respect punks or punkettes who hide behind their badges, but that wasn't my initial point.

Its funny, I stated a woman got out of her car and yelled and cursed at me but you responded by saying you'd lay the law down on me if I barked at you. Do you make a habit of cutting people off then yelling at them? That type of behavior is not conducive to healthy living.

because you don't bark at the police, it was a joke

 

[Utah]

A law abiding "law enforcement officer" would not act in the manner that Utah described which btw a lady wouldnt act that way either!

Exactly my point.

 

[Utah]

Was I ever saying that? I was just addressing HIS behavior...go get your glasses now

Again I ask, what behavior? That I stayed in my car and put the fear of God into someone who was walking towards me thinking they were going to physically harm me? That "behavior"? You haven't learned much in 15 years.

I've barked at the po po on more than one occasion. When you're in the right, righteousness prevails.

I had a date with a guy who had been married to a police officer. Lol he said he got a new rule in the house every day. It drove him nuts.

 

[JosephsDreams]

I was married twice. Many know my second wife died. My first one ran off with another guy, left me with the kids. Talk about rejection.
But anyway, that is not my point. Both of my wives had dads who were NYC police officers.
Their dads were sweethearts, and use to tell me they could not stand a lot of the people they worked with. But again, not to paint a uneven picture, they were life long friends with others.
Because my cousin was a famous retired NYC police officer, and cause my dad was, well, not police is the best way to put it, they both did not know what to think of me at first.
Once they got to know me, they loved me of course !
Just as long as I did not remind them to eat better (kidding).

 

[JosephsDreams]

Oh...good thing. I didn't want to have to call you ugly. Lol

I thought the woman in the pic was nice looking...
