(62,325 posts)that they do not approve of, it MUST have been put there by one of their male cohorts?? Women are not capable of 'thinking' for themselves! Without a man! How sad that after all the years and work of women who fought so hard, they still view independent thinking women that way.
How odd for such a sentiment to come from supposed 'feminists'. I can assure them, and the men in my life who actually know me, would laugh at the very notion that they could 'put' any ideas into my head that I had not already put there.
This is why they lose credibiity among women. It is an insult to women to make that claim. They apparently haven't accepted the realisty that not just men, but free, independent women can and will disagree with them.
I notice they have so many labels for everyone also, little categories all placed in neat boxes with labels on them. I've always been suspicious of 'labeling'. It tends to come from the Corporate World which does not view people as individuals.
And as if that is even possible.
And so many insults against those who have different opinions.
I never joined the women's groups on DU. When I first found the site I did look at the forum and all I saw was fighting and arguing and it turned me off frankly.
So we have nearly a dozen or so 'cohorts' so far. News to me, but I suppose it's always good to have 'cohorts', after all they do??
Lol, thanks for the response. I couldn't imagine who my cohorts might be, and to be honest, I'm still not clear. But whoever they are, I'm glad to have them.
