Fox Denies A War On Women But Hypes A War On Men

Fox Newsies insist there's no war on women. Yet in a FoxNews.com editorial, author Suzanne Venker - who boasts about not having any professional credentials beyond a messy marriage and a willingness "to speak out about things" she knows "from experience to be true" - argues that there's a war on men. And guess who's waging it? Feminists. So it's no wonder Fox News loves her message.

Venker tells us:

Women aren’t women anymore.

To say gender relations have changed dramatically is an understatement. Ever since the sexual revolution, there has been a profound overhaul in the way men and women interact. Men haven’t changed much – they had no revolution that demanded it – but women have changed dramatically.

In a nutshell, women are angry. They’re also defensive, though often unknowingly. That’s because they’ve been raised to think of men as the enemy. Armed with this new attitude, women pushed men off their pedestal (women had their own pedestal, but feminists convinced them otherwise) and climbed up to take what they were taught to believe was rightfully theirs.

That's right, ladies. The sexual revolution, according to "You-Don't-Need-No-Stinkin'-Professional" Venker, has turned women into angry harridans who have pushed man repellants. Venker can't seem to find one good thing to say about feminism. She posits that if women would just behave more like women and "surrender" to their femininity, "marriageable men will come out of the woodwork."

Can there be any doubt that Venker will get lots of sympathetic airtime on Fox News in which to discuss her "interesting" and/or "controversial" theory?

MJ, there’s also the small matter of that, when we stand up for our rights, we get called sluts, dumb bitches, liberal dykes, and PMSin’ c*unts. Like that’s an appropriate (or mature) response to anything.

Oh, and the whole deal about how clinics that deal specifically with women’s health issues should be shut down- but only the men should be allowed to talk about it.

Or how about when your boyfriend/husband beats you, and the police decide that, despite being covered with cuts, bruises and barely able to move… you’re the one on trial?

Oh, and (this is my personal favourite, BTW), a career woman can only climb the ladder if she has no problem enabling the mistreatment of the women who work in the trenches under her loft.

Oh, but the fight for our rights only benefits men- something about it made it easy for them to sleep around?

Congratulations- They’ve already lost women for 2014 and 2016. Countdown to them wondering why begins… now.

“In a nutshell, women are angry.”

Suzanne, I’m not — nor have I ever been — a woman, but, if I were one, and was told

- I should not expect equal pay for performing equal work, and
- the state should have the right to insert a vaginal probe into me with or without my permission

I’d be pretty damn angry, too . . .

This sounds like more like a ressume’ of someone trying to be wife #4 when Pig Limbaugh gets divorced again. Or is it #5, since he’s sooooo marriage material.

And what makes this stupid shit think that all women want to get married and/or have children? Some women choose not to procreate. I support their choice. I also support those who do want to procreate. I also support a woman’s choice to get married or stay single. We live in a country where we are still afforded those choices.

Of course, teabagger/neocon American Talibanists want to take all reproductive rights and choices away from women and force them to marry and procreate, give up their individuality, be sluts in the bedroom but mindless obedient angels everywhere else, be maids/cooks who endure the abuse of being reminded that they are considered second class citizens, and at the same time emotionally support their ball-less neocon/teabagger men’s fragile egos. In other words, they want Stepford Wives. Good luck with that, dumbasses.

- Suzanne Venker – who boasts about not having any professional credentials beyond a messy marriage and a willingness “to speak out about things” she knows “from experience to be true” -

Those are Exactly The Credentials Rupert Murdoch requires for anyone working at Fux Nuze – professional, Natural Born, Narcissists.

@Jim, yeah… but you know what happens when they’re 22? They lose interest in guys who make comments like they should go out and get married while at peak babymaking potential.

Seems that guys like that also expect them to be stay at home moms that keeps the place real clean, and provides both dinner and sex on demand.

Yes ladies, you’ve been aiming too high, and us fellas can’t take it anymore. Sorry, i’d keep going but Foxnews has lowered the bar well past the limits of my sarcasm meter.

When I first read the article this morning, my immediate reply was wondering Bill O’Reilly or Megyn Kelly wrote this, then got her permission to post it under her name. Tell me this doesn’t sound like something they’d say.

Then I checked out her sites, and changed my tune to wondering if Bill and Megyn get their talking points from Venker.

@ Visitor

Go read her websites.

She got one of her books published by WingNutDaily.

Enough said.

Oh, dear…

We have a serious problem in America. Marriage and the family, the most significant institution of all time, is dying. Something must be done, and this is my way of doing my part. Itâs that simple.

http://howtochooseahusband.com/about-suzanne/

Let me help the poor lady here. And ladies out there.

Your future husband must arrive on a noble steed, preferably white, street legal, mane flowing in the air and dismissive of all the other groupies.

After a long night of marital bliss, he will get up at 4 in the morning, go out and kill a lion, moose, or godzilla and then have it served as breakfast while Princess is choosing a new matching outfit. For her Chihuahua.

Since we are protecting the family here, Trump Hair, er, Prince Charming must agree to a pre-nup because “for better or worst” sounds nice in church but in divorce court the lawyers will leave both suckers naked and sobbing on the street, professing mutual love and promising to never do it again. Just ask Rupert about his divorce settlement and newly minted marriage.

About the Sanctity of Marriage,
GO READ A FREAKING HISTORY BOOK, Ms. Venker.

Betcha $10K that venker is one of Lardass Limpbag’s stupid dittoheads.

She’s too stupid to realize that by the mere fact that she works for wages, that she’s one of the “feminazis” that her fatass hero loves to demonize.

Yea, I was just reading that. Apparently wanting to work and make the same amount of money as men makes women less attractive. If only they could go back to the days of being merely a dishwasher, cook, and baby factory.
