Reply #111: This is one of the worst posts I have ever seen on DU.

[Evergreen Emerald]

These middle-aged women that you so easily throw under the bus, are women who endured sexism in the work place, who broke glass ceiling after glass ceiling so that YOU could be where you are today. She fought for her right to be a stay-at-home-mom and be respected. She fought to make sure that domestic violence was not minimized or ignored. She fought to be able to vote and work and own property. She fought to be able to sit at the bar with the men, and to play sports in high school.

These "middle aged" women who call themselves "feminists" endured sexism. Fought sexism. And you DARE to climb over their backs to be where you are today (for you would not be without them) and DARE to betray these FEMINISTS by suggesting that they are bitter old women who feel entitled.

That is the most insenstive, uninformed, historically ignorant, biggest betrayal against your own sex post that I have EVER heard.

And then, after a life time of fighting for equal rights, they finally see a female able to reach for the Presidency, and she is attacked in a sexist manner, while women who excelled ONLY because of the path laid for them by these FEMINISTS, treat the feminists before them like dirt.

You should be on your knees BEGGING for forgiviness to those SO CALLED FEMINISTS.




Stunning.
