Feminism is Still Important

***WARNING: I said I would NOT be biased but it turned out to be wishful thinking. Im sorry.***

Hey somehow I didnt record myself when I talked about other examples of sexism. I'm still figuring out my computer's web camera. Hopefully it will be fine to just post the main details here. I will go into more depth on some of them in later videos. Enjoy!

I don't like the way some male politicians treat female reporters when they are being interviewed. They call them honey, sweetheart, missy, young lady, etc. I was dismayed to find out that in 2008, when President, then Senator, Barack Obama was first starting his run for presidency he had to apologies to Peggy Agar, a reporter from Michigan, for referring to her as "sweetie" and then for blowing off a question she had asked.

In the U.S. women who work full time average only 70 percent of what men are paid. That is 30 percent less than men!

I found you in my subscriber list. Keep up the good work! Don't worry about people whining about your "bias." Everyone who thinks about an issue deeply, examines the facts, looks at the issues, and takes a side is "biased." You can't really truly be neutral in a world where there is so much oppression, exploitation, and abuse! It's important to take a stand, and you have.

@binhthanhvo Thanks for the support. It means a lot.

@binhthanhvo No one is "whining", bin. I was simply reminding her of what she said. If she wants to accept an ideology that teaches hate against men because she allowed herself to be bullied by an ex-boyfriend, by all means...

@TruTV It saddens me to hear that stereotype. To clear things up, I do not hate men. I just do not like people who treat other people badly. I have a boyfriend that Ive been with for almost two years and most of my friends are guys.

@JustJane90 Your a nice girl but you like alot of women prefer dating assholes rather than good guys and then when the asshole treats you bad you paint all men with the same brush.Most men are good men and are sick of hearing women blame all men just because of the choices of men they made.

Feminization insults have nothing to do with women, they have to do with not being a man. Unlike yourself who is inherently valued and worthy to the opposite sex, men don't have value for the simple fact that we exist.

Men must be of external utility, we must be, we must produce, we must become a man. Feminization insults are intended to insult men not for being like a woman but for having no value to women and as such society at large.

I will never stop being a Men's and Father's Rights Activist either. You can defend your own gender and I will defend myself and my gender.

I remember the incident with Obama that you mention in the downbar. I was outraged, and I remember how the media handled Ms. Clinton. She was either really tough and man-like, or she was overly emotional and feminine, but either way, she was criticized like hell. (Note: I am 100% against the Democratic party.) Also, I remember a man at a Clinton campaign stop who stood up with a sign "iron my shirt." Sexism over the last 30+ years has made a big comeback and it's up to us to fight it.

@TruTV Tru, you called me a little bitch in PM but you blocked me so I couldn't reply. When you point the finger at me, you have 3 fingers pointing right back at you. Don't be mad because you continually lose arguments to feminists. You should be used to it by now.

@TruTv In no way do I blame the boys for how I ended up feeling. People can only treat you the way you let them. However, I think that it is important that more young people learn how to treat the opposite sex respectfully so that fewer people get hurt.
