Is America Ready for the Return of National Offend a Feminist Week?

Posted on | April 28, 2011 | 33 Comments

Yes, it’s true: The third annual celebration begins Monday, May 2, and I’ve begun preparing for the occasion by accumulating vintage images of happy housewives from the Dark Ages of Patriarchal Oppression. Nothing so offends a feminist as the idea that somewhere there might be a woman who considers it an honor and privilege to be “Just a Mom.”

Marriage, motherhood, housekeeping, domesticity — these are the great evils of the Dark Ages of Patriarchal Oppression from which feminists are so proud to have rescued American women.

To be unmarried and childless is the feminist ideal of liberation from male-dominated heterosexist tyranny. “Feminism is the theory; lesbianism is the practice,” as Ti-Grace Atkinson once boldly proclaimed. However, understanding that some women may not be able to attain the sterile nirvana of lesbianism, feminists have encouraged heterosexual women to pursue anti-family practices such as cohabitation, promiscuity, unwed motherhood and divorce.

Unenlightened persons sometimes object that such behaviors do not actually increase happiness for women. But the goal of feminism is not to increase female happiness. The goal is to maximize male misery.

Making men more miserable is what “equality” is all about.

Female unhappiness is the raison d’etre of feminism. If women weren’t unhappy, there would be no aggrieved victims, and without victimhood, where would feminism be?

So feminists encourage women to screw around as much as possible — this is called “empowerment” — in hopes that they may either become single mothers, dependent upon the social welfare state, or else undergo the Confirming Rite of the Sisterhood, i.e., abortion. Their slavish obedience to these feminist lifestyle maxims fails to make women happy, and when women find themselves lonely, miserable, poor and infected with STDs, that gives feminists an excuse to say, “A-ha! You’re a victim of the misogynistic male chauvinist society!”

The feminist campaign to abolish happiness recently targeted columnist/actor Ben Stein:

Citigroup Inc. canceled a planned keynote speech by writer, actor and TV personality Ben Stein after getting a complaint that he told jokes disparaging women at a private-equity conference in Dallas earlier this year.
Stein, 66, had been contracted by Citigroup to appear as a speaker at the May 17 event the bank is hosting in New York for pension and endowment funds. According to the agenda, other scheduled speakers include hedge-fund manager John Paulson and Peter Orszag, the former White House budget director who’s now a vice chairman in Citigroup’s investment bank. . . .
The decision was made after Orszag received an e-mail from a woman who attended the March 2 event in Dallas and complained that Stein was “offensive and irresponsible.”
The woman, Lynda Villarreal, 41, had learned that Stein was scheduled to speak at the Citigroup conference, and e-mailed Orszag to ask him to reconsider, she said in interviews.

You can read the whole thing, but you get the idea: Villareal is a humorless liberal bitch, who sent an e-mail to her friend, Obama’s former budget director, to get a Republican canceled from a speaking gig. Stein’s jokes were harmless; this is a politically motivated smear. Bet your bottom dollar that Lynda Villareal supported Bill Clinton, whose notable contributions to women’s equality included stains on a blue dress. 

Corporate giants like Citigroup must kowtow to the likes of Lynda Villareal, lest they be accused of “discrimination.” (In fact, last year, Citigroup was sued by six current and former employees who claimed to be victims of gender discrimination.)

National Offend a Feminist Week is about exposing these opportunistic grievance-mongers as the humorless scolds they are.

The fun begins May 2. Don’t miss it. And hit the freaking tip jar!

    I’d like to contribute.

    Q: Why do you never need to buy a woman a watch?

    A: There’s a clock on the oven.

    Thank you.

    You know, that “Just a Mom” would have been a fine time to link to a struggling mommy blogger. ;-)

    Women are wonderful and indispensable to the happiness of men. Without women, the earth would soon be a liberal paradise, i.e., bereft of human beings. God bless those women who are able to stay home and just be moms…this in spite of the tax burden and rising costs that force many to work and be moms at the same time.

    Hey, I always thought women should be ” barefoot, pregnant and chained to the stove.” Just kidding. ;)

  • DaveO

    Isn’t this the same Orzag who left his very pregnant girlfriend in order to marry someone else? Whereas Ben Stein’s jokes would have been tamer than anything you’d hear on Comedy Central.

    Is this a joke? Too much irony for this post not to be.

    Just don’t bait Joy again. She might kick your butts if you do so.

    She’s my favorite mommyblogger. And I love the old folk-bluegrass allusion: “Get along home, Cindy, Cindy.”

    -All set and ready to go.

    -[WARNING: Shamless Blogwhoring Ahead]–BTW: In honor of NOAFW, I have delayed my Third Blogiversary Celebration [Six Days Of Cheesecake] until 09 May from 07 May.

    -Bet your bottom dollar that Lynda Villareal supported Bill Clinton, whose notable contributions to women’s equality included stains on a blue dress.

    …and ‘You might wanna put some ice on that’.

    -Joe: Joy will be too busy next week bringing me my morning coffee [cream, 3 sugars], so don’t worry.

    Will she be free at lunchtime to make me a sandwich?

  • http://thecampofthesaints.org Bob Belvedere

    Since that’s up for me to decide, as I’m the man, I make sure she does. If,
    for some reason, I need her at lunch, I’ll have Roxeanne de Luca make it for
    you.

    As a male, every week is National Offend a Feminist Week for me. I accomplish it by breathing.

    So few people get the song reference. That’s sad and a little surprising. How could anybody not know that song? OTOH, when they do get it, I know they’re my kind of people. It’s my hillbilly shibboleth.

    1. I blame the decline of patriotic education. When I was a kid, our schools taught us not only all the songs like “Yankee Doodle,” “America, the Beautiful” and “Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean,” but also all the classic American folk songs. How many kids today ever learn “Erie Canal” or “Billy Boy”? I suppose that “Get Along Home Cindy, Cindy” is another such casualty of the de-culturization of the curriculum.

    2. “Hillbilly Shibboleth” would be a great name for a punk-rock band.

    I certainly hope you have a hardhat.

    It really would! I used to play that game. Two of my favorites I ever came up with were “Helicopter Monkeys” and “Heartless Karl”.

    I am not only “just a mom” I’m also a housewife! (and a blogger, of course) I love the idea of offending those ugly vicious humorous bitches and i will be delighted to join in the effort any way I can. I am unable to hit the tip jar thanks to Obamaflation, but if anyone hits My tip jar any time in the near future, I’ll certainly consider paying it forward a bit in your direction.
    I’ll be sure to engage in the FMJRA and shamelessly link back here when I start offending those bitches from my place. I can’t stand them, they are as horrible as they are ugly, all they do is scream over imaginary offenses while ignoring the very real horror, oppression and degradation visited upon females every single damned day by islam.

    The song was prominent in a lot of westerns. If you don’t remember the 50s and first half of the 60s, you would have never heard it.

    We lost a lot of American culture when the Hollyweird poobahs decided to hate America.

    I have made it a policy to never use the term Ms., an artifice deserving of nothing but scorn. It’s either Miss or Mrs, and in honor of this holiday, I am going to name it for the first time as my official blog policy.

    Baby steps.

    TPT: If you read my site, you’ll notice I only use a variation of ‘Ms’, ‘Mzzz’, when I mock Bolshes and Feminists.
