Michelle Duggar:Feminists do not like her choice....

A blogger at the Washington Post writes that the internet seems to be mad at Michelle Duggar for getting pregnant AGAIN. I thought it was all about choice and when  that choice doesn't fit in with the popular trends...beware.

"Now it would seem, the view is that a woman’s only place is at her desk, in a pantsuit, with a nanny at home watching her two children. She must be a card-carrying supporter of Planned Parenthood, or else she is complicit in the ever-illusive “war on women.”
"That view presents a woman who is opposed to abortion, eschews contraception, opts out of a career to tend to her children, or has a large family (or all of the above), as anti-feminist, oppressed, and ignorant. It, ironically, makes her a second-class citizen, because of her choice. "

TN State Rep: “You have to lift up their skirts to see if they’re women.”

From: Red State.com

Rep. Janis Baird Sontany (D-53) said of female Republican state legislators, “You have to lift their skirts to find out if they are women.  You sure can’t find out by how they vote!”
…Because all women are supposed to vote the same way? So much for thinking for yourselves and letting women make “choices.” It’s like pretending that all black people are the same. Oh but wait, they do that too. TN State Rep. Janis Baird Sontany has decided that if you are a women, there’s a checklist you’ve got to complete to be considered a woman. Don’t have the votes? Clearly you’re a gender traitor.
Liberals and feminists have decided that conservative women are some sort of subspecies of woman, and are doing everything they can to justify their revolting mindset. Even when they work to conceal it, things like this spill out, and they’ve exposed themselves over and over again. Like the saying goes, ugly is to the bone. To me this sounds like it was supposed to be a joke or something; no word from the source on whether or not people laughed.
Sexism exists, and the worst attacks on women come from other women - the misogynists that parade around under the veil of “feminism.” They’ve outlined the Pillars of Womanhood, and apparently they include being pro-abortion and perpetual victimhood. If you don’t meet those criteria, your gender is clearly up for debate.
Then, the only way to validate your gender is to expose your girly bits and prove it.
