Been reading up on her and while she's not pure evil incarnate it only took one thing to decide me on her politics and whether I in any way support them.
That one thing being, she's a prominent member of Feminists For Life.
Yah, no thank you. You can not be pro-life and a feminist.
Yes, I know I go off on the "you aren't a real feminist" things but this is my line in the sand. You can personally for yourself be against abortion and be a feminist, but you cannot be politically pro-life and anti-choice and a feminist. Sorry, you just can't. Feminism is about realizing women's innate rights and freedoms. Taking their choices away from them in no way supports that.
That is one line in the sand that I can back up.
ReplyDeleteRock on.
Palin is just another deranged sick-fuck wackaloon right-wing scumbag like all the rest of the Republican Party. She was chosen because she can pretend to look normal to the inattentive, while her demonstrable disgust and hatred for women will endear her to the depraved HATE! HATE! HATE! sick-fuck right-wing base. I am so weary of these fucking traitorious anti-American GOP douchewastrels, I just want to spend all day puking my motherfucking guts out.
ReplyDeleteI agree about the line in the sand. In general, I don't worry too much about how people define their feminism. But being anti-choice is one of the things that is completely incompatible with a feminist worldview.
ReplyDeleteThis is my first time seeing your blog. I like it and will be reading more. Thanks.
