live under are akin to slavery, is just so stupid!

I am assuming that refers to men's financial obligations to wives and children. But let's look at a few facts: 40% of households have women as the primary breadwinner. I am sure that in at least another 10 or 20 percent of households, women and men share breadwinning. And in another 10 or 20 percent of households, women are secondary breadwinners. At least. So women are at least equally, if not more, likely to be the primary or co-primary breadwinner in their family.

So this is complete bullshit. It simply doesn't happen any more. This slavery on which this woman bases her pity for men is nonsense. And let's not forget that those women, though they are equally responsible for breadwinning, only make 70% of the salary.

This movement is a haven for idiots.

Aren't I good? Those feminist girls are bad, they won't do anything you tell them to do! They're bad girls, aren't they daddy?

Don't worry, I won't ever be like them. I know that daddy knows best."
