I found a pretty good web site, that finally feels like a more objective source with regards to human sexuality.
I would like to share a few paragraphs here:

'In the meantime, this patriarchal system has, of course, been somewhat modified. Some of its worst excesses have been corrected, but, as women well realize, in principle it has survived to this very day. Indeed, it is still defended by many men as 'natural' and inevitable. As proof, they point to a great deal of historical and anthropological evidence which seems to show patriarchy as a universal institution dating back to the earliest ages. However, within the last hundred years this view has repeatedly been challenged by various scholars who claimed that, in some distant past, all of mankind lived under a more benign and humane system of matriarchy ('mother rule'), and that our patriarchal culture is but a sorry deviation from the healthy order of things.

The fight against sexual inequality thus became a fight for a more just, more humane society. By freeing themselves, women would also free their oppressors. This basic feminist belief was, over the years, articulated again and again, but it was perhaps best summarized early in the 19th century by the French social utopist Charles Fourier who had said: 'The degree of emancipation of women is the natural measure of general emancipation.'

In traditionally patriarchal societies any improvement in the status of women has far-reaching consequences and produces fundamental political changes. Therefore it is always resisted by the established powers. However, it seems certain that they will ultimately have to relent, because the emancipation of women is both necessary and desirable. It will provide for a greater degree of social justice and thus benefit everyone. Indeed, from the beginning, the great 'feminists' or champions of women's rights have always insisted that they worked in the interest of the whole human race. The feminist movement therefore has always been a humanist movement. Some of its representatives were reformers, others revolutionaries, but virtually all of them worked for a better, more equitable, and more humane world. Much can be learned from their experiences. They often suffered ridicule, persecution, and defeat, but also won admiration, support, and victory. Gradually, they achieved many of their goals. Their opponents, on the other hand, learned that a just cause cannot be suppressed forever. Where needed reforms are consistently blocked, revolution becomes inevitable.'

The Double Standard

Sorry Catwoman but all this feminist stuff and women rights is getting rather tiresome in my opinion. I think you made your point more than once - some agree and some don't and it seems to cause more arguments than enough.

the subject of opressed, beaten, murdered women never can be tiresome.
you have two options: you stand up against it or you ignore and pretend things are alright.
the other thing you can be completly blind and deaf so that you dont truly see and hear.

the website has written my mind.
thanks catwoman

I think what libralady's point "might" have been is that, nobody at this site is in favor of oppressing women. The people that need to hear this message are the ones that don't care. This website might not be that venue is all she is saying. maybe.

Silence!

Wow, that is unbelievable. Libralady, is this the kind of arguments you didn't like on TC? Surprisingly, you're part of it .

well,
miss naive (or better miss week-submissive), and ms MARATHON and mr TC clown, do you three have anything to share on the subject of "double standards" or not?
wanna insult me personally? send pm.
have nothing to say constructive? bugger off!

Sadly I have just counted 6 contributors to this thread, Femme you are one of them so what do you class yourself as? Assuming I am Miss Naive I am flattered Well that is enough childishness for one day.........

And you're what femme fatal?
Whatever you're I prefer to be the opposite, if you're the intelligent here, I am very happy to be the stupid

I'd like to qualify myself here as 'Miss-I cant believe it'.


This thread and nearly ALL of its post have gone completely absurd and don't make any human sense at all.

some standards some strange people have somewhere:

"Tehran, 12 July (AKI) - Twenty one women have been arrested in the Iranian city of Ghazvin, 100 km north of Tehran, since 21 May and 3,264 reported to the authorities for failing to respect strict Islamic dress codes, police officials said Thursday.

Local police also said that about 100 shops including internet cafes, restaurants, hairdressers' and clothing boutiques were fined and shut down for numbering among their clients women who were not dressed according to the strict new rules which became effective on 27 April.

Police in Tehran say that only in the first week since the rules were implemented, officials stopped 2,198 women and 91 men whose attire was deemed unfit. Of these, 213 women and 12 men were taken to police stations and formally charged.

They will have to face trial and their names were inserted in a new data bank listing 'immoral persons'.

According to the rules, a woman who does not completely cover her hair and body in public can be fined or imprisoned. Men also must wear their hair short and T-shirts and all Western-style clothes are banned."

Amazing, Amazing, Amazing!!!!! SOME people should be cloned...
