Female Empowerment

[PyroChamber]

Is there a point when female empowerment become downright ****iness? Because it seems to me most women who claim to be empowered dress the most trashiest (e.i. Pussycat Dolls).

 

[Drakon]

Well, they see it as being in control of themselves when they do things like flash their breast or whatever, but they don't stop to think that all they're really doing is making themselves into objects.

And turning most guys into mindless zombies.

I think the so-called female empowerment movement has back fired bigtime. Most women now think that it's empowering to dress and act like ****s and the funny thing is, they expect men to focus on their intellect when they do! I think most women are acting like shameless tarts now and deserve just about any bad treatment men give them. It's not just women but thats what we are talking about on this thread so I'm sticking to the topic.

If I was a dude I wouldn't respect most women.

there's a lot of women who fall into that category, and think the more cleavage, the most empowering they are, when i couldn't disagree more.

 

[HR-PUFF&STUFF]

there is a big diff. between empowered and b!tch. i you know what your doing and you are confodent in yourself that will show thru and it won't matter what you wear.

 

[Kyalesyin]

If you need to dress like a ****, you aren't empowered. The whole point of empowerment was to have equality DESPITE having ****, not having special priveledges BECAUSE you have ****.

***** Cat Dolls are not empowered. They're too stupid to do anything else. If you have to flash to get by, you're not empowered. End of story.

 

[Abaddon]

the tarts are trying to take power through titillation.

Where's Female Torch when you need her?

 

[Lord Valumart]

i instantly thought of that south park ep with paris hilton when reading this thred....

 

[Kritish]

Where's Female Torch when you need her?

It’s time to go say her name three times in the mirror…

I think the mindset behind that is, guys can act like ****es and still be in a state of power, so we should too. But the thing is, sleeping with a bunch of dudes or dressing like a ****e may make you think you're following the big boys, but you're just providing us menfolk with some easy access. Don't fool yourself, babe.

 

[The Man Of 16]

Female empowerment is when a chick wont pick up the phone after you misplaced your cell phone and didnt answer 8 of her calls.

 

[C.F. Kane]

I can't think of how many girls I know who fall into that category of skank-powerment. Just one question that's interested me:

Is it safe to say that girls like that are just as sexist as the chauvinistic males they love to hate? They're both pretty much playing the same sex-game.

i agree

a lot of celebs (pcd, hilton and the like), give young girls the wrong concept of "female empowerment". there's nothing empowering about wearing lingerie while singing, or getting the popparazzi (sp?) to take pictures of you getting out of a car sans underwear.

there's few female celebs out there that i really respect. and i guess that could be said about "regular people" too.

i'm intelligent. i'm sarcastic and funny. i can be an utter geek at times, but also watch chick flicks with my gal pals and then talk sports scores with my guy pals. you'll find me in a t-shirt and jeans just about everyday, and i don't follow what society says is "cool and in".

i do my own thing, and i'm happy with who i am. to me, that's more empowering than anything the pussycats and the like are trying to claim as empowering.

I wanna see what you look like. And then I want to possibly hook you up with a friend* of mine.

(friend is code for crotch)

 

[Arkady Rossovich]

Personally..i dont think such a thing exists.

 

[GunBlade]

Oh it does, you just don't know it.

lol but the fact that i'm 21 and you're "the man of 16" is kinda awkward

dont let the name fool you. Im 18 in a month. and thats legal age to drink in Canada. it doesnt stop me though, im off to a bush party in 20 minutes.

I'm really beginning to think this "empowerment" is just a way for people to try to justify being ****ty.

Then again it could have been made as a way to trick women into being ****ty and thinking it "empowers" them.

 

[Movies205]

The idea of sleeping with lots of men really has to do with one's set of values. If one truely, not just spouting bull****, believes that sex is that meaningful, is not a **** for sleeping around. The word **** then does not apply, **** only applies if one places value in sex... However the truth is many women who talk about empowerment really haven't given it a lot of thought or have not been honest with one self. However I don't believe sex has anything to do with empowerment, if anything it puts down women even farther. The goal of women should be asserting their independence without it being inevitably tied to sex.

 

[tzarinna]

It really bothers me when women depend to much on men for ****.
I'm amazed that there are still women that expect the men they're dating to pay their bills.

I know, right?

 

[terry78]

I want to be an independent woman, but I still want you to treat me like a girl, is what the consensus is.
