Vlog 3: Naral & why the feminist movement is not dead.

[Chaoteee]

What feminist want is put every man with a libido in prison. To make it crime to think about women sexually. To push propaganda that women do not lie.

[twostarsdancing]

I would love to be involved in a feminist orginization like naral... do you have any info =)

[KM581]

abortion is murder bottum line

[Lachdenan]

Minnesota...isn't that down the street from feminazi headquarters literally on Superior Street? You need to wake up. Diseases are on the rise because of fornication and adultery advocated by the feminist totalitarians and the absence of fathers in the home. What's marvelous about nature is that you can't cheat it. You false rape accusers (over 50%) and child-murderers don't have rights, except the right to remain silent and a fair trial. You won't last in the long run.

[pirbird14]

i am no longer able to go on marches or knock on doors or hand out leaflets on street corners. I also chose not to bring any children into this world. Back then, we thought the revolution was just around the corner and i wanted to wait till we had a better world. Well, some things have gotten worse, some better and I don't miss my "lost" children. It's good to see there are plenty more to take my place.

Keep on truckin'.

[MsDezzyzRayz]

Your a walking talking Oxymoron ! Grow up !

[iloveshabby]

i am pro choice all the way. pretty much by saying abortion is wrong are you saying that every time a woman ovulate she should get pregnant? ok so having a period is murder. and if you say killing a live embryo is murder, what is killing an egg nt the same thing? I will most definately always fught pro choice and have done since I was eight.

[SeaWolfe59]

To the author. Do you believe abortion should be federally funded?

[tribesentertainment]

You go sister. Your generation is so dynamic and important to the movement.

[anikinippon]

Feminism is not necessary, equality and human solidarity is necessary.

[kashlenf]

I totally agree with everything you said. Thanks for your work and for making this vid.

[jieubanks]

5000 abortions and no one died? O except for the 5000 children that were denied there choice to live!

[ThomasJS1]

LOL, Your video was on a related video link to this:

[PaintingPaperTowns]

Even though I strongly disagree with you, I applaud you for expressing your opinions. However, I felt you should have tried to be more professional. Why on earth did you film this while only wearing a towel? It's not that you need to put that much effort into your appearance, but at least wear real clothes.

[KimYungSoo]

Go make me some dinner woman...

Stop getting on a mans invention and go teach a group of young negro kids.

[TheCantthinkofaname]

stupid fat bitch, lose some weight u peice of shit. woman are only good for the kitchen. stupid skank shits

[HisNewCreation]

Every child DOES deserve to be wanted and loved . . why then should we kill them, when there are thousands of couples who would love them? It makes no sense to me to say that we should kill a child just because there is the possibility that their birth parents might not love them. Your video made me so sad. It is disheartening to know that there are people who advocate abortion as a woman's "right," and ignore that innocent child's right to LIFE. 50 million: death toll for the silent holocaust.

[angelshoulders]

Congress had received testimony that some infants who had been born alive after unsuccessful abortions were left to die. We issued clear guidance that withholding medical care from an infant born alive may constitute a violation of the federal Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act and the Medicare Conditions of Participation."Obama Promised CHANGE and HOPE. "Where there is LIFE there is HOPE" and signing this Mexico City Pro-Abortion death warrant approving that our tax dollars pay !!

[appletime12]

and still He loves you.

thank u for your mercy God!!

ur so angry. let God give u peace!

[yankonthis]

wow, you made my penis go limp. who is this god awful wet cunt

[SSears418]

What an amazing job...you are really making a difference in ppls life. We were all given "free will" and it is a choice that we as people should have the right to have and no one should take this right away. I am 100% pro-choice.

[appletime12]

we wil all have our day of judgement and will all be held acountable for what we say, do and what we LET happen. Jesus is coming soon, are you ready??

[yankonthis]

fuck you  and jesus. go back to the dark ages you stupid cock sucking motherfucking piece of shit

[appletime12]

sweety do your research only 7% of people have gotten abortions were rape victims. The other 93% did so either bc of fear of social humlitiation or because they were unaware of the long term effects. Abortion is murder. Life begins at conception. The irony of it all is that you are for something that is against giving people just like you an opportunity to live. You need Jesus sweety!Its all a business for the abortion clinics. Former employees are open to saying so.

[angelshoulders]

According to the Alan Guttmacher Institute, in 2005, 1.21 million abortions took place in the United States. Some 42,350 of these occurred on women who were 16 to 20 weeks pregnant; over 13,310 occurred on women who were 21 weeks or more into their pregnancy. According to CDC government data, over 64,000 abortions in a year are performed on women who had had three or more previous abortions.

[xKatrenx]

its sad but true... im one of the only people at my school who knows what pro choice and pro life are...

im pro choice... everyone has the right to do what they want

[OlsenMania]

I'm sorry but FUCK abortions and people who calls themselves doctors who give them and the low life ppl who are suppose to love their children. I'm sorry but if you need something removed or an abortion then you are killing life....BURN FUCKERS BURN!!

[ourladysbug]

The reason you could not finish your sentence: that all children should be wanted and loved and that is all you have to say about that is because it would go. All children should be wanted and loved and if not they should be killed. Have you ever watched silent scream? I dare you.

[lovewitchbaby7]

hi! i've identified as a feminist ever since i knew the definition of the word, and i just wanted to say thanks for making this vid. feminism is NOT dead.

[LandOfTheFree2]

Abortion has murdered 50 million American babies so far!

Margaret Sanger (founder of Planned Parenthood) was a RACIST who wanted abortion to kill African-American babies. It has accomplished its original goal by murdering 7 out of 10 African- Americans, whose population is now SHRINKING.

Have you no heart? You are working for murderers.

I will pray for your soul.

[hcbaldy]

In that story your aunt told you 5,000 people died...sad.

[phil8422]

the feminist movement isnt dead but it should be lol, and f**** u abstinence and how can u say that 1 in 4 girls with an std and not mention guys with std in my school ALL std start with the girls the slutty whores that know that they wont get any if they tell they have it so they lie to get guys to sleep with them and spread it

[Lesbianation]

Nice use of sentence fragments. That's all.

[luckyhoops25]

guys do the same damn thing by not saying a word about it and just pass it on. if stds are spreading, then that means guys aren't opening their mouths about stds either...be reasonable!

[lalalita35]

i agree w/everything ur saying but you posting this in a towel defintly limits ur credibiliity and just gives fodder to those who disagree

but i admire you for what your doing

[yummyache]

I super love this video. Thanks for it!

My birth control for a 3 month supply was nearly $150. It was outrageous and I still pay an outrageous(but not AS outrageous as some)$15 for a pack every month.

I really enjoyed living in Minnesota(I just moved away in June,might be moving back)It was so much more liberal than Texas(where Im originally from)

Keep it up! :)

[gulskjegg]

Can you imagine coming home every night and having to sit through the Hitler-esque babblings spewing from from this diseased skanks festering gob? Thank GOD I married a foreign girl! ONE IN FOUR TEEN SKANKS HAVE AN STD...blame men?

[Lesbianation]

It's not just girls asshole. HIV/AIDSrates are increasing among our teen boys and the only reason we don't KNOW the statistics for boys is because the MOST common STD, HPV, doesn't usually exhibit symptoms in men... but they still have it and can pass it.

[sharovek]

Look who's talking. Your hillbilly lives with a fat kaban with mirror sickness and he won't even fuck her. How many US teens are interested in old, fat, bald unemployed losers? None.

Someone downloaded your video and sent it to me. I saw your fat fingers and pig sty home. No decent Ukrainian would live in that railroad station. This is why you got your unmarriageable hillbilly. Ukrainian men won't marry such bad housekeepers. They have to settle for American women's rejects.

[Lesbianation]

Well that's for uninsured women who don't go through different state programs... I even met an insured woman who paid $40 a month for hers and that's STILL way too much.

Plus now that the Department of Health and Human Services is trying to put through an executive order that would cut federal funding for those programs because he thinks BIRTH CONTROL is abortion.

What a fucking idiot.

[thinkplease123]

Do you know how Birth Control pills work?

[Lesbianation]

Yes.

[thinkplease123]

Good. Can you explain it so that the person who thinks the pill acts like an abortifatiant can understand why the comment was made?

[LandOfTheFree2]

You are PRO-abortion. Since Roe v Wade abortions have moved from maybe a few thousand to a MILLION abortions a year in the US, so you are Pro-ABORTION.

You are either pro-abortion or anti-abortion, there is no grey area.

[Lesbianation]

Well ordinary birth control, or contraception, work in many different ways, but for all of them the goal is to prevent pregnancy. Obviously. Barrier methods like condoms prevent sperm from reaching the eggs. Hormone contraception (like the pill), prevents conception by preventing a woman's ovaries from releasing eggs. This stops eggs from being fertilized and lodging in the uterine wall and pregnancy from happening.

[Lesbianation]

Birth control is 99% effective.

Emergency Contraception, or the morning after pill, is a stronger amount of the same hormones found in birth control, which prevents pregnancy by thickening a woman's cervical mucus. The mucus blocks sperm and keeps it from joining with an egg.

Some people say that the morning after pill works by keeping a fertilized egg from attaching to the lining of the uterus (which is why they think it's an abortifacient). But there is no proof that this actually happens.

[thinkplease123]

If you will read the little paper that comes with each pack of Birth Control Pills you will see that in some of the cases this is the case. The Birth control company uses very mild language, don't want to scare away customers, but a fertilization can occur. It is suppose to suppress the release of an egg, but that does not always happen. So in some cases it becomes an abortifacient by also making the uteran lining very thin,and does not allow the fertilized egg to implant.

[LandOfTheFree2]

That is impossible. The morning after pill works after conception. I am a biology major. A sperm and egg meet during intercourse, not days after. The morning after pill is a form of abortion. In your view, this shouldn't be a bad thing since you are pro-abortion.

[soedblackchaos]

Actually, the Morning after pill suppresses ovulation. And most conceptions occur a day after intercourse. Sperm can live in the body for up to 3 days after ejaculation. And it takes time for sperm to travel up the fallopian tubes, it's not instantanious. If you're going to argue a point, at least have your facts straight before trying. I'm pro-choice, not pro-abortion. Pro-abortion means that you think no one should have children, that's just stupid. Think about what you say before you say it.

[soedblackchaos]

Just like you have the right to eat Veal.

[trevoreriksmoen]

...so you eat fetuses? freak

[soedblackchaos]

MMMMM EGGS...

Actually I was referring to the right to kill something weaker than you for self-preservation, but hey, if you want to pretend you're better than everyone else, not much can be done for you.

[dcolew]

Really smart, informative video.

[Lesbianation]

Thank you so much cutie! You're adorable I love your vids. I think I'll sub.

[Aaroncast86]

I could write something really long. For now what I want to say is just this: I agree with you.

[Lesbianation]

Hey thanks! It's great to see there are people that agree with me out there.

[Aaroncast86]

You are welcome! It seems like whenever someone makes a video diary talking about something that means a lot to them they end up getting comments that are mostly attacking them in some way. Not necessarily making personal attacks but I'm sure you get my point. Anyway, whenever I watch a video like that and I do agree with what's said I try to post a comment saying so.

[cacaselebro]

u rock

im subscribing!

[nneverwhisperr]

love this video! i'm subscribing :)

[Aaroncast86]

That was my reaction too.

[gulskjegg]

Please do think feminism is going stong. I encourage it, in fact. Marriage rates are the lowest in recorded history. Divorce rates in some American states now approach 90%, with 70%+ of all divorces initiated by the female. Fiancée visa requests are skyrocketing through the roof. So much so, feminists are trying to pass laws to limit American men having access to foreign ladies. Needless to say, its not working, just the last gasp of a dying religion. Glad I married a foreign girl!

[jnicholsmurph]

A big argument against abortion is that life begins at the moment of conception. But, really, I don't think that people are qualified to make that decision. Who are any of us to play god and say when life begins? I really think abortion is something a woman has to decide for herself. Maybe someday people will be able to make those kinds of PERSONAL decisions without being judged by their peers.

[Aaroncast86]

It's human nature to judge others. Our brains evolved that way when we lived in tribes so many years ago. I doubt that kind of hard wiring will ever be fully abandoned, and hope it is not. That's another topic though.

I agree that it should be a personal choice but not just of the woman. The man responsible for his contribution to the conception should also have some say. However, that would and should not be the case in rape.

[jlblack14]

This video is built on one assumption - that human rights, women's rights, do not apply to a fetus. With the information we now have about fetal development and what exists at the moment of conception (information we did not have in '73) that assumption is VERY hard to prove. The girl in the video ends by opening up her argument to comment. I STRONGLY recommend that she examine this question: What is removed from a uterus durring an abortion? Could it possibly be a human deserving of rights?

[Aaroncast86]

"With the information we now have about fetal development and what exists at the moment of conception (information we did not have in '73) that assumption is VERY hard to prove."

Actually, the opposite is true. Thanks to the scientific facts regarding fetal development we can understand that a fetus is not the same thing as the properly developed newborn birthed at the end of pregnancy.

[Aaroncast86]

Remember, many people will only look at information that supports their already strong opinions and ignore anything that contradicts their beliefs.

[angelshoulders]

Pro-life Americans should vigorously oppose any federal health care reform legislation that does not explicitly exclude abortion from the scope of any government-defined or government-mandated package of health care services. Go to National Right to Life and they will guide you to your senators, congressmen etc. All you have to do is click. We are the voices of our youngest generation, the unborn babies!! ACT NOW

[azhamat]

Minnesota? more like rat and slag infested stink hole of shit and squalor

[Lesbianation]

haha lol what?

[gulskjegg]

Nah dude that's Montana! I know, I live there. You should see the looks of pure rage and hatred I get from bloated pig faced American skanks when I walk down the street with my smokin' hot foreign wife that is 10 years younger then me. Just for having to sit through this social rejects inane babble, I'm taking my honey out to the most expensive place in town for dinner tonight. I wouldn't stop to piss on a feminist if it was on fire. My pee would be offended!

[OmniNorth]

Every child deserves better than being murdered by abortion.

[Lesbianation]

Clearly you do not understand the complexity and immensely personal nature of abortion, and you cannot see that it is a last and terrible option for most women. Taking that right away from women, especially victims of rape and incest, will only mean less-safe procedures done under deplorable conditions, and women will die no doubt. So you promote the death of women and children due to medical complications when there are perfectly safe medical alternatives to back-alley abortions out there?

[angelshoulders]

Abortions are done mostly for non-medical reasons. As the abortion industry itself admits on the website of the Alan Guttmacher Institute, "[T]hree-fourths say they cannot afford a child; three-fourths say that having a baby would Abortions are done mostly for non-medical reasons.

[FeathersandPlume]

Oh, I hope you signed up to be a foster parent. Do you plan on adopting as well? If you want every single fetus to turn into a child, do you plan on taking care of these children yourself, maybe you are helping them find loving homes?

I sure hope you are.

[Aaroncast86]

FeathersandPlume: who were you speaking to in that comment?

[FeathersandPlume]

The Comment was for OmniNorth,

but it's mostly directed to those who are pro-choice.

[Aaroncast86]

Hm... so you think that most people who are pro-choice want every single fetus to turn into a child?

Perhaps you meant it was directed at those who are anti-choice?

[FeathersandPlume]

OH!! I meant it was directed towrads Pro-Life,

Sorry!

[FeathersandPlume]

*towards

[Aaroncast86]

What is Pro-Life? I think we've all come to understand the term should be Anti-Choice, no?

[FeathersandPlume]

Sure, that sounds fine to me. I always get confused by the term, because I think Pro-Choice, is positive, but then Pro-Life sounds so much more positive, so friends of mine have told me they are pro-life, and I have told them I am too! And gone on making statements that they were ultimately really offended by. I definitely LOVE the term Anti-Choice! Thank you Aaron! :-)

[OmniNorth]

NARAL promotes killing babies. That's the work that you do.

[ninapina26]

At an age where most of your peers only care about their own needs it's more than commendable to see how dedicated you are. There needs to be more people with the passion that you have in EVERY category of work, issues, politics, etc. in this world. So there's my INSANELY long comment, but I felt it needed to be said. Extreme kudos to you.

[ninapina26]

I, as well as many others, would probably find it hard to stay passionate about anything in the face of so many setbacks. The passion you have for this, as well as the passion I know you put into other things you believe in is absolutely amazing and it inspires me to re-light the fire under things that I strongly believe in, as well as to expand my scope to things like this that NEED to be talked about and taken care of.

[ninapina26]

I admire your passion for what you do and what you believe in, because even I find myself being lackluster about the things I believe in; as a society we think "As long as I'm ok, I don't have to worry about anyone else." From the things you've told me about your job and the things I've heard otherwise, I commend your ability to stay strong and continue on in the face of what I can only imagine to be countless acts of doors being slammed in your face, people unwilling to listen, and more.

[ninapina26]

and I always strayed away from discussions about it because it's so touchy. I knew my basic stance (pro-choice, iffy on post-viability abortions) but not much else. I always hid in my little mental health box activism box and didn't really stray outside. But by listening what you have to say and checking out those websites, I realized that this is just as much a mental health issue, especially in cases of rape, as anything else, and in the end it's a human rights issue.

[ninapina26]

For a moment, I want you to completely put aside our friendship and really take this as one adult speaking to another. I never watched this video, to be honest, because like you said-it's just one of those issues that no one really wants to talk about. But I decided to watch it, and I'm more than glad I did. I'm like most people-I have enough facts/thoughts to get by in a basic argument (maybe a little additional info from the child psych course(s) I've taken), but not any in-depth info...

[xshadowedsmilex]

haha best intro ever.

this was reallly interesting.

your great

[Bourne2bwild1989]

Haha I was totally waiting for your towel to fall off in the beginning, but then I saw you holding it up and I was like, "Oh thank God!" lol

[Lesbianation]

That would have been absolutely too rich for words. But to be honest that probably would happen to me... and not even in a video where I'm by myself... more like in a huge group of people... I am such and awkward lesbian.

[Bourne2bwild1989]

Lmao, that's hilarious. I am at times too, no worries.

P.S. I added you on myspace =]

[Lesbianation]

Oh very cool. Thanks I'll be sure and accep that! You should subscribe to my vids too!

sometimes you come home from work, and we sleep together before you go to a different job. and sometimes you hold on to my butt all night long. and sometimes we share a blanket and an armadillo.

xoxox

RPH

[Lesbianation]

And sometimes you punch me in the arm at 4:30 am and ask me "what's that?" when my alarm goes off.

And sometimes when you sleep I lick your toes. Yeah, didn't think that was coming did ya? Huh? huh?

[RnbwTreeHugger]

Your job sounds great. I believe in choice, and what you do is amazing. Thanks for doing what you do. You're an awesome individual and the world needs more people like yourself. Take care. :)

[Aaroncast86]

Well wrote.
