During an office discussion, I ascertained the fact that nowadays (in America, not so much in Europe, although Europe is catching up) if you, as a man, help a lady in the train, bus or plain, to put her luggage in the overhead bin, your gesture could be interpreted as a sign of flirtation. My remark was quickly intercepted by a liberal female voice, who chided me: \u201cYou cannot THINK that! That\u2019s sexist!\u201d Wait a minute! I cannot think that? Since when courtesy has become banned? Oh, because it puts women \u201cin an inferior position\u201d and that\u2019s bad. Now I get it!<\/p>\n
During another discussion, when I heard a woman cursing \u201clike a man\u201d (that is, referring to certain external male genitalia), and I commented afterwards that she cursed \u201cworse than many men,\u201d the same voice snubbed me: \u201cYou cannot SAY that! That\u2019s sexist!\u2019 Seriously? So, here is where we are now?! Will we be allowed to utter further sentences with any scintilla of comparison between genders from now on?<\/p>\n
Recently, Bill O\u2019Reilly, the man responsible with skyrocketing the FOX NEWS CHANNEL\u2019s ratings in the last 20 years, has been deposed under allegations of sexual misconduct (some of them not even part of a formal complaint). https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bill_O%27Reilly_(political_commentator)<\/a><\/p>\n So far, no allegation has been proven in any court of law. What has ever happened with the \u201cinnocent until proven guilty\u201d principle?<\/p>\n My impression is that feminists want to have it both ways. So, it\u2019s okay to be a woman (\u201chear me roar\u201d) who advances in career using sex-related (oops, I mean, gender-related) \u201ctechniques\u201d to gain favors. But it\u2019s not okay to be \u201csexually harassed\u201d while using the same \u201ctechniques.\u201d Right?<\/p>\n If this is the case, can men also sue for sexual arousal? In fact, Ronald Reagan\u2019s son, Michael, defended Mr. O\u2019Reilly, using this particular argument. He referenced one of the allegations against the political commentator, who called a black woman \u201chot chocolate\u201d and suggested that women invite attention by how they dress. https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/news\/ronald-reagans-son-defends-oreilly-asks-men-sue-sexual-arousal-195343802.html<\/a><\/p>\n How about this: each legal complaint of sexual harassment should not be disjoint from counter-complaints of sexual arousal. Don\u2019t get me wrong, this should apply irrespective of plaintiff\u2019s gender. Sexual arousal can be probed as efficiently as sexual harassment, with documents, testimonials, and the like. And then, let the court decide.<\/p>\n Or, even better: how about passing a new statute making sexual arousal a cause to decriminalize sexual harassment? Can you imagine how many sexual harassment claims would be dropped or, to start with, not even filed?<\/p>\n As it happens, liberals are more concerned with these things, and they quickly go for the jugular if someone crosses the invisible and gradual line between sexual advances, flirting, flattery, compliments, and courtesy. Women know this much: if you want to be treated like a lady, you act and dress accordingly. But then again, a woman can chose not to act or dress like a lady, and then sue. Society\u2019s current standards, imbued with political correctness, allow her to do just that.<\/p>\n During the infamous Lewinsky sex scandal, I haven\u2019t heard any high-ranking democrat, or The National Organization for Women, or any other relevant liberal feminist organization, going ballistic to impeach President Clinton. Back then, Congresswoman Maxine Waters, a Trump-hater and currently the campaign chief for his impeachment, was as quiet as a mouse. People like her were not at all bothered by Billy Boy\u2019s deviant sexual behavior, which was notorious and proven beyond a reasonable doubt. The justification: \u201cC\u2019mon, it\u2019s just sex!\u201d http:\/\/www.rightgrrl.com\/justaboutsex.html<\/a><\/p>\n But even before, no liberal organization demanded Clinton\u2019s resignation in spite of his numerous sexual harassment activities against other women. Having him disbarred was just a palliative remedy.<\/p>\n More recently, on March 8, 2017, during the International Women\u2019s Day, similar liberal feminist groups orchestrated a \u201cDay Without a Woman\u201d protest in Washington, DC. https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Day_Without_a_Woman<\/a><\/p>\n A day without a woman\u2026 hmm\u2026 Can I pick and choose the woman? Can it be Rosie O\u2019Donnell? Or Madonna? Or at least Maxine Waters?<\/p>\n In fact, this was a general strike day against the Trump administration\u2019s policies. The organizers encouraged women to refrain from working, spending money (or shop only at small women- and minority-owned businesses) \u2013 much to the chagrin of shopaholics – and to wear red as a sign of solidarity. https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Kd_XRyYya_k<\/a><\/p>\n At the end of the day, the impact of this action remained limited. http:\/\/www.americanthinker.com\/cartoons\/2017\/03\/3_11_2017_2_6.html<\/a><\/p>\n In fact, it proved to be inversely proportional to its level of noise pollution, comparable to the one exhibited during the January 21, 2017 anti-Trump Women\u2019s March. https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=q2R2btO4MEo<\/a><\/p>\n What is sickening to me is how liberals manage so hypocritically to impose to conservatives standards of behavior higher than their own. Which leads us to a simple conclusion: in reality, sexism is just as anti-feminist as feminism claims to be anti-sexist. http:\/\/i.imgur.com\/eY2nxDI.jpg<\/a><\/p>\n As it stands, sexism is an ugly child of feminism, while feminism has become its ugly mother. http:\/\/twitchy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/feminism.jpg<\/a><\/p>\n So, what type of society are we heading to?<\/p>\n
