[quote=FlyerInHi]I don’t find CAr’s comments to be feminist at all.
A true feminist would want full equality and full liberation from the oppression of traditions.
CAr wants cultural preservation and the perpetuation a certain perceived “wholesome” way of life. She wants to punish adultery because she views it mainly as a male issue. In the process, she’s willing to throw her real feminist sisters under the bus.[/quote]
Wrong. I want to preserve *choice* for families. What’s right for one person/family will not necessarily be right for another. There is no moral judgement there.
Additionally, I don’t think of adultery as just a male issue. I know full well that women are guilty, too.
I’m a feminist, but also a realist who acknowledges that while men and women have equal value, they have different, complementary abilities and priorities at different stages of life. The law should reflect this.
And what goes for the man goes for the woman as well. I want ALL SAHPs (male and female) and income-earning spouses (male and female) to be protected.
