Thank you BrotherIvan Mar 2014 #12

I think you're exactly right Major Nikon Mar 2014 #18

It's called internalized misogyny. Which is directly the product of hegemonic masculinity. Gravitycollapse Mar 2014 #23

So if your analysis is correct, more women are "internalized' misogynists Major Nikon Mar 2014 #26

No, because the proportion of the population who is absolutist in abortion rhetoric is less... Gravitycollapse Mar 2014 #28

That was not the argument Major Nikon Mar 2014 #31

You just argued in another post that more female political leaders would be bad... Gravitycollapse Mar 2014 #32

You have it exactly backwards Major Nikon Mar 2014 #35

These are your words. Own them like someone who has courage of conviction... Gravitycollapse Mar 2014 #36

So your argument is that just because you don't agree, I must be wrong Major Nikon Mar 2014 #37

You have that upside-down. I disagree because you're wrong. Gravitycollapse Mar 2014 #39

You're convinced you're right and I'm wrong on something that is purely speculative Major Nikon Mar 2014 #40

I actually don't like the core argument of the OP. I think it's ill informed and ill constructed. Gravitycollapse Mar 2014 #43

This is another Gallup analysis that doesn't fit your own gallup polls... Gravitycollapse Mar 2014 #20

Not sure why you'd think so Major Nikon Mar 2014 #21

To counter your assumption, it isn't only about absolutes. Gravitycollapse Mar 2014 #22

The poll you posted is less relevant Major Nikon Mar 2014 #24

As I've stated elsewhere, female anti-abortion advocacy is internalized misogyny... Gravitycollapse Mar 2014 #27

Just because you say it, doesn't mean it's true Major Nikon Mar 2014 #29

If anything I've said seems like word salad, you should avoid continental philosophers... Gravitycollapse Mar 2014 #30

Appeal to authority fallacies don't help your argument Major Nikon Mar 2014 #33

"The idea that everyone does because deep down they really hate women is not a good one." Gravitycollapse Mar 2014 #34

"You do not have the right to tell people what to do with their own bodies." except on DU The Straight Story Mar 2014 #25
