Rush Limbaugh: Feminism is evil because it makes women think they are independent humans

http://mediamatters.org/video/2016/07/27/limbaugh-laments-women-used-go-college-meet-their-husband-all-got-blown-feminism/211953

Now back in 1971 when they met, back 1965, 1970, that's -- you may not like hearing this, but much of America, that's why women went to college. It was just the formula, that's where you went to meet your husband and get that phase of your life started. ... And so, we had the beginnings of feminism starting to rear where all of that got blown up. The whole point of going to college became not to find a husband. Screw that. Feminism became you don't want anything about a man to be defining. You don't want your relationship to define you, you don't want a relationship to be your happiness. You certainly don't want marriage to be the sole determining reason you live. You don't want a relationship to be your happiness, marriage, any of that. You want to go everywhere. You want to have it all. You want to be a corporate success, you want to be an entrepreneurial success, that's, and that's the beginning of the feminist movement, which sought to emulate men. I thought that was its mistake from the get-go.


---------------

Whatever happened to the good old days when women considered men the center of the universe?

Whatever happened to the good old days when men were the meaning of life for women?

Whatever happened to those good old days?

Nowadays, women are going to institutions of learning to learn.

Oh, how selfish of them.

Oh, what a perversion of the way things are supposed to be.

Oh, how Rush Limbaugh misses the good old days.

They sold out for a price. Rush is a phony in every way. It's where the money is and his adoring listeners would jump ship if he came out.

who not only enjoy being told they belong to the 'master race,' but that they're better than an entire gender as well. It gets lonely at the top, but I'm sure they're used to it.
