Up From Slavery based on 0 ratings. 83 reviews.
I had heard often of Booker T. Washington and of his work at Tuskegee Institute, but never really knew much about him beyond just the name recognition. This autobiography was a good way to find out more about him, his life, and his philosophies - most all of which I agree with and think we could use more of these days (both black and white people). The one criticism I have of the book is that the introduction by Louis Harlan is very long and I think would be better as an Epilogue. I found myself reading it going "o.k., o.k., just let me read the book". I ended up going back and rereading a lot of the introduction again, which puts the book and Mr. Washington into historical context, when I was done. I would recommend just skipping the introduction and reading it when you are done with the book. - - It does offer some insights though.
When this book was converted to an ebook, the publisher didn't bother to check to see if the e-version was readable. Not all of the characters/letters were converted properly so there are numerous words on every page that can be barely read because the letters are jumbled or incorrect. The original book by Booker T. Washington was terrific, but if you want to read it, buy a different version. This one is terrible.
If you want to know how adult education really ought to be taught, you should read Booker T. Washington's autobiography "Up from Slavery". He was one of the greatest educators in history. His methods and determination to provide a high quality education to older teens and young adults proved to be of great worth to many men and women of different ethnic backgrounds. He went beyond "book learning" and provided a means for his students to learn life's skills and how to be good citizens in a most difficult time period in our history. His model and style of education still applies today, and, if they were taken seriously, could solve many of of education issues. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in how education should really be.
Good book for understading slavery. This is a 8th grade reading level book good to use as a book report.
What a great story of a man who really believed that people needed to find a skill that made them feel useful and worthy. Very well written and I learned a lot about him.
The content of this book is riveting and hard to put down...but this nook version is so filled with errors and typos it is difficult to read. this by far is the worst nook edition i have encountered with regard to accuracy.
I knew nothing about Booker T. Washington--until now! What a strong and determined man he was. He held no grudges and spent his entire life helping fellow African-Americans succeed, despite the odds against them at the time. He led an interesting life and made his way up from nothing to becoming a successful, world-renowned educator, orator, author and political leader. I highly recommend this book!
The author could just as easily have used his prescription for success for people today, as he did immediately after the Civil War. Booker T. Washington knew that the success of ex-slaves in this country was directly proportional to the level of education achieved. That education also included the interpersonal skills necessary to perform those skills in social settings. READ THIS BOOK!! You won't regret it. Talk to your school boards and make it mandatory reading in Middle Schools.
This is an interesting book read l

I am only giving it three stars because I have not read it, just wanted to say that there are many many of this book in the NOOK library, all titled "Up from Slavery". I do not know if this one is different, I just know that they are all pretty much the same title and all the same author.
Lots of Im famous but Im still humble. Although an important record its still a pitch article for funding in exchange for gritty rags-to-riches backstory.

Area Info
North Carolina has quietly become one of the most popular states in the country for retirement. Not everyone wants to move to Florida: North Carolina is blessed with a varied topography, from seacoast to mountains; an equable, four-season climate; and a choice of social settings ranging from quiet small towns to booming and vibrant cities. Add in the wide array of cultural and recreational choices, and North Carolina is virtually a microcosm of America.
Living costs in the state are 6% cheaper than the national average and home prices are lower than those in most states. The weather varies with cold winters and hot, humid summers.
New Bern, the town that inspired many scenes from the classic Nicholas Sparks romance novel-turned movie, The Notebook, is the second oldest town in North Carolina. New Bern has four distinct historic districts and 160-plus homes on the National Historic Register, some dating back to the 18th century. The town is also ideal for active seniors, with plenty of opportunities for boating, rafting and other water activities.

I made this last night using shrimp, green beans, and mushrooms. Fantastic. I had to add considerably more than 1 cup of water though. I think this may have been because the flour mix I used has a lot of corn starch in it. I plan to make this for dinner with some non-GF friends. I don't think they will be able to tell the difference. Thanks **Jubes**!
This was a good basic recipe. I didn't measure exactly and I added garlic powder and salt to give it some flavor. I made a sweet and spicy garlic and ginger sauce to go with it.
I didn't do exact measurements, nor did I use ice water (I used cold tap water), but this turned out really good. I used white rice flour with a bit of almond flour and it didn't seem to absorb a ton of oil which was great. I will definitely use this recipe again.

BASEBALL; Mets Pull Another Defeat From Jaws of Victory
By JOE SEXTON,
Published: August 16, 1993
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 15— The baseball rose off Kim Batiste's bat, and suddenly none of the Mets was moving. Joe Orsulak froze in left. Anthony Young froze on the mound. Dallas Green, in the air-conditioned exile of the clubhouse, stared at the television.
The baseball tumbled in for a single, and the meltdown for the Mets was complete. A 4-1 lead over the Phillies had become a 5-4 deficit in the eighth inning. The Mets were left to go through the motions of a futile ninth and then move for the exits at Veterans Stadium.
"Not very pretty," Green said. "Not very nice." 'We Just Don't Know How to Win'
That was as politic as Green was going to get. His words for the umpiring in the game were neither pretty nor nice. He couldn't even bring himself to give voice to the words that came to mind with respect to Young. His club had given up five runs in the ninth inning to lose a game Friday night. His club had nearly wasted a 5-1 lead Saturday night before winning by 9-5. And today, a four-run first inning by the Mets ended up amounting to another tease, another setup for a pratfall.
When it was all over, the Phillies had taken two of three games from the Mets. Their lead in the National League East looked ever more insurmountable at nine games. And a grand total of 145,048 people had come to witness the Mets embarrass themselves some more.
"We obviously haven't learned how to win baseball games," said Green.
Ah, but how adept, how inspired, how imaginative and indefatigable they are at losing games. The total is at 77, an archive of incompetence rich in absurd entertainment.
Eric Hillman, after allowing the Phillies a single run through seven innings, walked Lenny Dykstra to start the eighth, then gave up all hope of finishing the game one out later by allowing a two-run home run to John Kruk that narrowed the Mets' advantage to 4-3. Hillman took a seat in the dugout, and Young took up his position on the mound. That sinister karma that descends on almost all of Young's appearances was about to make its presence known. Green Ejected
Young got the second out of the inning, but that brought up Darren Daulton, the National League's second-leading run producer. Young's first pitch was called a ball by Umpire Phil Cuzzi, and Green exploded in a tirade that got him ejected before he had even left the dugout.
"There was no strike zone today," Green said afterward. "I'm not an ump knocker, and I wish our club would stop worrying so much about them. But there was no consistency."
The Phillies, of course, managed to persevere however inconsistent the umpires might have been. Daulton, after amusing himself with Green's tantrum, got back in the box and doubled on a 3-2 pitch inside third. Suddenly, Young, who lost the game Friday night to stop his string of victories at one, was in danger of losing the lead, and maybe the game.
He quickly did. Wes Chamberlain drove a single through the left side of the infield to score Daulton with the tying run, and took second on the throw home. Up came Batiste, who had hit a grand slam off Young to win Friday's affair in the ninth.
Batiste swung as if he was intent on slugging another home run, only the baseball came off the end of the bat. Orsulak, in left field, saw a big swing and made no big move in. Precious seconds later, he determined the baseball's flight, but it was too late to get to it before the ball hit the turf. Chamberlain was across the plate with the go-ahead run.
The Mets had no big swings of their own left. Jeff Kent was on the bench with a rib-cage injury. Tim Bogar, who sprained his wrist sliding across the plate in his big performance Saturday night, had his hand in a soft cast. The Mets thus were reduced to having Charlie O'Brien pinch hit against Mitch Williams with two men on in the final inning. O'Brien did nothing, and the Mets had done nothing more than lose more ground in the N.L. East. They are 34 1/2 games behind the Phillies.

text: Home > Lifestyle Jennifer Lopez turns out for Versace at Paris fashion Agence France Presse Posted at Jul 07 2014 07:34 AM | Updated as of Jul 07 2014 03:34 PM Share Facebook Twitter GPlus LinkedIn Pinterest PARIS - Jennifer Lopez on Sunday provided the star power at Paris fashion as designer Donatella Versace kicked off six days of haute couture catwalk shows. The Italian designer sent out opulent blue fur coats, voluminous silk ball gowns and gold-buckled corsets in what she called a celebration of "construction and deconstruction". In a string of a asymmetrical looks, jackets and trousers were cut away to one side while one skirt was slashed so high it revealed the model's hip. Plunging fronts and backs had thin strips of vinyl embroidered on transparent fabric to create graphic shapes. US actress Lopez, wearing a strapless white gown, posed with Versace on the steps of the Paris Chamber of Commerce and Industry near the Champs-Elysees where the show was held. French designer Fred Sathal, meanwhile, was fashionably late for her return to Paris couture after an absence of eight years. Sathal's "colour light" show got the couture collections for autumn/winter 2014/15 off to a sparkling start after a 50 minute delay. The designer used beading and embellishments to create a swishing, shimmering effect, especially on mini-dresses with heavily-fringed hems. A recurring fabric used in trousers, coats and kaftan dresses was inspired by an artist's paint palette. And Sathal did not shy away from fur with one supremely over-the-top cape made entirely from fox tails. Around 30 haute couture fashion shows, including those by some of the biggest names in fashion such as Chanel and Christian Dior, will be held in Paris over the next week, wrapping up on Friday.

I envy you. We can't get that here in the US. I'd wager it's probably BETTER than beef.
Oh, and not sure if they're still open, but I used to occasionally get horse steaks here: Klarendalseweg They also sold horse sausage and a few other things. If you're in Arnhem you might want to have a look.
They are, just found this: http://www.historischklarendal.nl/ernste/ernste.html
Thanks for the answers, lucky me I geuss!
And Blackcatbone, I checked the butches site and they are part of a 'marketing board' (think thats the right description) that only allows meat that is sold to be pastured. So it's fine! But thanks for the heads up!
Now that I think of it. I get nearly all my meat from there. I was worried that I couldn't get my hands on any grass fed meat around here. But the fact that it's all pastured means I'm doing pretty good, right?
You suck! Horse is illegal for human consumption in the US. Thank you PETA! I've heard it is really good!
On the other hand, I'd wish the meat prices where as low for us as they are for you. I pay €4,- per lb for that horse meat and €7,- per lb or so for a beef steak! Thats more than $10,- per lb of beef steak!

"Ow! You're such a friggin jerk!" Sam yelped as the Winchesters walked back to the Impala.
Dean had reached out and slapped him pretty hard in the back of the head a moment before causing the outburst.
"You're the one who didn't watch my back when you were supposed to!" Dean snapped back, not bothering to look behind him.
"I was a little preoccupied!" Sam retorted hotly, remembering how he had been ambushed from behind. He had been thrown into a tree and heard something pop and then white-hot pain. He had temporarily forgotten about the pain during the firefight that followed, but now that it was over and the adrenaline was waning, the pain was back in full force.
"Well, I don't need you to be slacking off while we're hunting," Dean answered darkly.
"I wasn't slacking off!" Sam protested.
"Yeah, whatever," Dean rolled his eyes.
Sam sighed and grimaced as with each step sparks of fire shot through his back up and down his spine. It was becoming difficult to walk now and stand up straight at the same time. Sam didn't say a word to Dean about it. His brother probably didn't want to hear it since he was pissed. Once they got to the Impala, Dean stuck his keys into the ignition and Sam slid into the seat. It hurt to sit straight, so he slouched in the passenger seat. Dean didn't notice. If he did, he didn't give any indication that he did. Soon they arrived at the motel and Sam gripped the sides of the Impala to pull himself to his feet. Their room on the second floor was only accessible via stairs and Sam wanted to cry at every step upward.
Once inside, Dean wasted no time in ditching his weapons on his bed and announcing, "Keep your phone on, I'm going out for a beer."
With that, he was gone.
Sam turned his phone on loud and threw it on the bed. He saw his pajamas on the floor (the ones that he would kill to be in at the moment) and stopped over to pick them up when World War III went off in his back. Sam cried out, falling to his knees and then onto his side on the floor as tears dropped from his eyes in miserable agony.
Dean sat at the bar not too far from the motel, sipping at his beer and watching the burly men play pool in a corner. Usually, he would join them to win some extra pocket money, but he just wasn't in the mood. Something was nagging at him and it had to do with Sammy. Hell, it always had to do with Sammy!
Sighing to himself, he checked the time on his cellphone.
11:48, he had been gone for about an hour and after two beers he wasn't feeling better. Maybe he shouldn't have been so harsh to his brother.
Conscience getting the better of him, Dean pressed Sam's speedial and held it to his ear.
Ring...ring...ring...ring...ring...ring...ring..."Hey, this is Sam leave a--"
Dean pressed the cancel button with a frown. Sam always answered his phone when Dean was out, even if it was late at night and he had been asleep. Dean pressed the redial and had the same results.
Something was wrong.
Getting up, Dean ordered a beer to go and went out to the Impala. Minutes later, he opened the motel door.
Sam heard his phone ring and couldn't move to get it from his bed. His body wasn't cooperating. His phone went off again and Sam struggled to move. Finally, he just gave up again and laid there motionless staring up at the ceiling. About ten minutes later Dean came through the door. Sam sighed in relief, "Down here."
Dean studied him for a moment in bewilderment, "Why didn't you answer your phone? And why the Hell are you on the floor?"
"Back hurts. Can't move. Help?"
Dean reached out and Sam grabbed his hand. The older brother pulled the other man to his feet as Sam declared an exclamation in pain. Dean helped him lay on the bed and ordered him to stay still.
As if Sam could move!
Dean handed Sam the to-go beer and sat down beside his younger brother, "How'd this happen?" He asked.
"Ambushed, slammed into tree, didn't get to you in time," Sam replied shortly.
"Sorry for yelling at you."
"Okay, Jerk, I accept your apology."
"Thanks, Bitch. You're gonna hate me tomorrow though."
"You're gonna go to the doctor to have that back looked at."

Customer comments about Steen 72w 16d 24h Two-Door Media Cabinet:
If you are impressed with the Steen in the showroom, wait till you get it home! It really brings out so much in the room. It's different and unique, unlike anything else on the market. It adds richness and depth to simple, modern designed room. Yet it also blends well. I was worried it would be bland with my white maple floors, but it simply works!
The construction is incredible. Tongue and groove joinery at the corners is perfect...flawless in fact. The doors slide easily on ball bearings (not wood on wood). The shelves are sturdy and there's no sagging.
The wire management is the most well thought out of any cabinet R&B sells! The holes are in the bottom, not the back! Makes sooooo much more sense!
If you live in Chicago, have Chris at Oakbrook help you design your rooms! He's a genius! Really!

Quick notes from USA training Thur morning:
1. Jozy Altidore is officially out for Sunday's game vs. Portugal. Strained left hamstring. Team hopeful he will return later in the tournament. He is at camp undergoing treatment.
2. Matt Besler is fine, expected to play. Clint Dempsey hasn't decided if he will wear mask over broken nose or not. Team travels with masks if he wants one.
3. US players are preparing for Cristiano Ronaldo to play, despite his injured knee and rumors he won't play.
4. It is chilly and drizzly in Sao Paulo today, perfect weather for England, which plays Uruguay later this afternoon.
It was a long night after that thrilling US win over Ghana. The US media had a midnight bus to catch to the Natal airport, where we caught at 2:45 a.m. flight back to Sao Paulo. The airport was JAM-PACKED with US fans. People sleeping on the floor, eating at the snack bars, buzzing about the game. Felt a lot like the train stations in France "98 and Germany '06. Great atmosphere, and fun to see so many US fans make the trek to this farflung beachtown. Feels like our team and fans are all grown up!
Landed in Sao Paulo very early..
Then took hour and a half bus ride to hotel, rest, and off to US training at 2:30 p.m. (I plan to post video)
Some thoughts on the win, the day after...
- Jozy Altidore limped really badly after the game and it appears doubtful he'll be able to play anytime soon. Feel awful for him, as he was really fired up to do well here. "I was crushed,'' he said of the injury. "I knew right away I wouldn't be able to continue.''
- Matt Besler also had hamstring issue, but his seems less severe and it's possible he'll be back for Sunday's Portugal match.
- Alejandro Bedoya, our Weston local, started and worked hard every minute he was on the field. He seemed to pull something on his hip area, but is expected back for Sunday.
- Clint Dempsey's nose (likely broken) was still bothering him after the game. He said he had trouble breathing. Klinsmann brushed it off, saying he broke his nose 3-4 times in his career and it should not affect Dempsey's ability to play. As long as you have legs, Jurgen figures you can play.
- Jurgen Klinsmann is looking smart for putting John Brooks in there to replace Besler. The 6-4 kid was the unlikely hero with his 86th-minute header.
- The U.S. won with its American fighting spirit. Ghana dominated possession and took 21 shots to 8 for the U.S., but Ghana's shots were errant and the U.S. capitalized on the few chances it got. The win will give the Americans a boost of confidence and energy, but expect Portugal to be tougher than Ghana, especially coming off a 4-0 loss to Germany. "They're going to be angry, and we all know how Cristiano Ronaldo behaves when he's angry,'' Klinsmann said.
What are your thoughts on the US win? Curious to hear what you think back home....
30 minutes til kickoff! USA v. GHA
Weather: Nice breeze. No rain.
Crowd: Looks pretty evenly mixed. Lots of yellow shirts, lots of red, white and blue. Fans still pouring in.
USA uniform: All Red.
USA lineup: Howard, Beasley, Cameron, Besler, Johnson, Beckerman, Jones, Bradley, Bedoya, Dempsey, Altidore.
Ghana lineup: Kwarasey, Gyan, Opare, Atsu, Ayew, Muntari, Ayew, Rabiu, Mensah, Asamoah, Boye
Sightings in the halloway: former US coach/soccer nomad Bora Milutinovic, Miami Dolphins media honcho Harvey Greene, here working with VP Joe Biden.
Here's what it looks like during warmups:
USA plays Ghana in Natal at 7 p.m. local (6 p.m. ET)...Thirteen inches of rain have dumped on this coastal town over the weekend, causing street flooding and mudslides. More showers expected tonight at kickoff. Temp High 84, Low 72.
If you haven't seen this Landon Donovan ad, do it now!
The U.S. team held a training session at Arena Das Dunas Sunday afternoon...here's what we got to see...Coach Jurgen Klinsmann and his staff showing off their dribbling skills (if you missed, you had to do pushups, as Klinsmann does here)...and the US players jogging and stretching in a circle. The 39,000-seat stadium, by the way, is very nice.
The World Cup media credential gets you into all the stadium media centers, but you have to apply for tickets to get an actual seat in the stadium press box. Priority is given to media of the team playing, and then there is a weighted lottery from there based on continent, size of publication, how many World Cups your publication has covered, etc...If you don't pick up your ticket by 90 minutes before the match, it is given away to another publication.
Just picked up my ticket for USA-Ghana. I'll be watching from my media desk in Section 208...
Hello from Estadio Das Dunas (Stadium of Dunes)..in Natal...
In the media workroom, getting ready for interviews with US coach Jurgen Klinsmann and Clint Dempsey, and then press conference with Ghana coach and player. We also get to watch 15 minutes of training in the stadium for each team.
Here are some photos to give you an idea what it looks like here...The inside of the stadium is very nice, the outside clearly was not completed in time...
Guess who this reporter will be rooting for tomorrow night?
Here are the local firefighters...
The Stadium..
You can see the sand dunes on the way to the stadium...
World Cup, Day 2.
Brazilians are still happy. Croatians are still mad. Everyone talking about "The Call,'' including US players, who watched the Brazil-Croatia match together and said they took note of how tight ref is calling hands in the box. More on that in my story later.
It isn't easy to get near the US team. Check out the security outside their posh Tivoli hotel in Sao Paulo...
The US team is flying to Natal later today to begin preparations for Monday's Ghana opener. I will be heading to Natal tomorrow and will be reporting from there.
Enjoy the matches today: Mexico playing Cameroon now (Brazilian-born Giovanni Dos Santos had two goals called back so far, perhaps refs trying to prove they make calls against Brazilians), then Spain-Netherlands and Chile vs. Australia.

You are currently browsing the category archive for the 'Gender Issues' category.
The working title for this post was accurate, but a bit wordy: Dude Superciliously Imagines What Females Think then Blames Females for His Imagining of their Problems. We tightened things up a bit and figured we'd add more verbosity in the introduction.
The Dude over at Talonrest is a master of erecting stupid assertions (go there now for the bullshite-in-the-raw), applying them to the group he hates (feminists, women, double-XXers, etc.) and then castigating feminists for acting (as he portrayed them to act) so damn shallow and stupid. Talon's glaring problem is that his argumentation only briefly entertains connections to reality.
Talon DudeMcDudinstein is all about abandoning any semblance of rationality preferring to sashay headlong into meandering fields of straw arguments and butt-cogitations that manage to both besot and flagellate the reader not only with their insipidness, but astonishing lack of grounding in anything resembling fact.
Different format time folks, let's deal in paragraph sized chunks to see if we can really appreciate what dear Talon is trying to say.
"Behind all the feminist posturing about being independent and empowered a big fear for many millennial young women still remains the impending big 30. That's when the facade starts to crack and they realise that they didn't have this all figured out.
You will see signs of it start to happen in the late 20s as the strong independent millennial woman who has been living it up in the years of her prime attractiveness starts to realise that the party won't last forever and that she is no longer the center of the universe for the high-quality male attention that she used to take for granted."
This is really a grand example of what happens when dudes 'analyze' the experience of females through the fucked up lens of patriarchal expectations. Those expectations are:
1. A female's worth in society is directly correlated to the physical attributes men find attractive.
2. Male 'attention' is a valuable resource because, implicitly speaking, females cannot achieve in society without male help/attention.
Both points are the kind of nefarious bullshit women struggle against everyday. The grand quest to be though of as human, rather than desirable fuck-object starts here.
The fight to be a subject that is capable of action, rather than a object to be acted upon is fundamental to the feminist movement and happens to be one of the tenets many radical feminists organize around. (The radical notion that women are people too – et cetera)
"It happens gradually, but one day she suddenly realises she has been receiving a lot less attention from men. The waiter at Starbucks is no longer extra-friendly to her. People start expecting her to pull her weight at work and no longer cut her as slack despite her pulling the usual charm offensives. She looks at that new young pretty intern that just joined her workplace getting attention from everyone and suddenly realises that she can no longer compete."
Misogyny comes in so many flavours, here we see the restated notion that female worth is derived from male attention. Female people have the same extrinsic and intrinsic value as human beings – and this is the key truth that Talon, our shit-nozzle of the day cannot comprehend.
"It is telling that most of the social media posts worrying about the impending big 30 come from my empowered, independent female acquaintances, along with the usual self-assuring polemics about how they "still got it" and are wiser and stronger with age. But you get the distinct impression that they are just posturing and attempting to make sense of a very confusing situation."
Women are not confused about the situation as they have been socialized from the beginning to be pleasing objects of desire for men, and are also aware of the penalties for non-compliance. Aging-out or fatting-out of the prime attention of zone of dudes can be bitter celebration for many women as it marks the transition from constantly creeped on fuck-toilet to mostly ignored invisible non-person. Choosing your patriarchal shit sandwich has never been so empowering…
"What's more interesting is that my female acquaintances who have settled down in their 20s and have gotten on with life in starting a family and working on building a functioning, fruitful and healthy marriage don't exhibit any sort of the same angst on social media."
The Second Shift doesn't leave much time for facebook. Raising a family mirrors of the inequality women face in society, as women are responsible for most of the work that goes into rearing children and the domestic hell that goes along with said task.
"Meanwhile their strong, empowered counterparts are trying to get into fad yoga, getting cats and hopping onto the next fashionable frivolous activity that comes along in an attempt to prolong their party years. But it's clear for all to see that their best years are behind them, and they are just trying to relive the heady days of their early 20s, except without the devoted male attention and valuation that they used to take for granted."
Because the male-gaze is awesome.
"This is the brutal reality of female nature that many millennial women don't realise- they time they have in the sun is actually quite limited. Young women who keep themselves even passably attractive enjoy a lot of social leverage based upon their biological youth. This, along with modern pop-culture feminism that encourages "empowered" behaviours without caveats that leads to them having a distorted idea of their own value."
I'm pretty sure this 'social leverage' is what douche-canoe misogynists like Talon bang-on about all the time. All the submissive beauty rituals that differentiate females from the accepted standard of 'normal' (male) must be lauded and elevated so that somehow they become desirable to perform. Hey ladies, perform all these pointless rituals to appease the male gaze, but on the same time we're going to shit on you your for doing all these frivolous time-wasting things. Patriarchal double standards for women are the norm in this society, and this is just one of many.
Striving to be valued as full human being is society is hardly a 'distortion'. Ass-hat.
"They assume they will always be attractive and that the red carpet from men will always be out for them. They don't realise a lot of the "you're beautiful" polemics will actually be coming from themselves after they pass the big 30. There are always thirsty Beta men who are willing to snap up the leftovers after the party stops for our "empowered" woman when she ages out of the market, but she is unlikely to find this men very appealing.
The "empowered" woman stuck with lower tier dating options. Cue a lot of self-convincing that they are not snag a Beta they can't feel attracted to because they are trying to cash in before all of their attractive fade and eventual resentment that the "empowered" lifestyle didn't deliver them Mr. Big at the end of the day."
*sigh* – Because all women are about snagging the 'prime' 'alpha' male. One of the neat things about making arguments is that one cannot arrive at truth when one of the premises you're basing your arguments on is false. In this case, patently false – classifying men, like wolf packs, into Alpha and Beta males – is based on discredited shit research that got almost everything wrong about wolf society. I've talked about this before on the DWR before so I'll quote myself to on how wrong the MRA classification system is:
"Schenkel's observations of captive wolf behavior were erroneously extrapolated to wild wolf behavior, and then to domestic dogs. It was postulated that wolves were in constant competition for higher rank in the hierarchy, and only the aggressive actions of the alpha male and female held the contenders in check. Other behaviorists following Schenkel's lead also studied captive wolves and confirmed his findings: groups of unrelated wolves brought together in artificial captive environments do, indeed, engage in often-violent and bloody social struggles.
The problem is, that's not normal wolf behavior. As David Mech stated in the introduction to his study of wild wolves (Mech, 2000), "Attempting to apply information about the behavior of assemblages of unrelated captive wolves to the familial structure of natural packs has resulted in considerable confusion. Such an approach is analogous to trying to draw inferences about human family dynamics by studying humans in refugee camps. The concept of the alpha wolf as a 'top dog' ruling a group of similar-aged compatriots (Schenkel 1947; Rabb et al. 1967; Fox 1971a; Zimen 1975, 1982; Lockwood 1979; van Hooff et al. 1987) is particularly misleading."
So, as the studies cited indicated, these assertions have been shown to be erroneous for over twenty years. It is known that accuracy (wit, intelligence, charity, …) and MRA's don't mix. If you can stomach the manosphere you will see this error perpetuated with metronomic regularity.
"A Red Pill masculine man worth his salt will know that these "empowered" women in full on approaching or post-30 panic will not be good prospects for a relationship. Their years of "empowered" feminist living would have stuffed their minds full of ideas that give them an entitlement mindset to commitment that is way beyond their value proposition. In addition, it is highly likely these "empowered" women would also not be having any maternal feminine aspects that are considered desirable wife material."
Yes, having their minds stuffed with ideas that they are full human beings and not just objects of male of desire, the nerve of 30+ women. Oh, and keep in mind when you hear 'maternal feminine aspects' please read 'patriarchally approved ritualized submission to men'.
[…] – Skipping repetitious meandering prose.
"Meanwhile, the Masculine man who has been focused on improving himself would find that his options in the dating marketplace would have opened up dramatically. While the early years can be tough for a man, the later years will only get better if he has spend the intervening years improving himself.
The Masculine man is shaped through adversity and develops the important life skills and experience that allows him to have a true value proposition in the Dating Marketplace."
Masculinity is about exercising your will over others. Masculinity is toxic.
"The "empowered" woman on the other hand, has coasted through her life based on her youthful biological attractiveness and feminist "empowerment" ideology that made her overestimate how valuable she was just for having a vagina. She is less likely to have gone through the same adversity and rejection that a young man has in his struggle to be valued and hence is out at sea with a clue on what to do once she can no longer rely on her looks."
Oh my goodness. Pro-Tip: Being Born with a vagina means a ticket to second class status in society. Not being heard, not being seen (other than as a sex object to be possessed), not being represented. These are all part of the female experience. Fuck-Nugget is trying to compare males facing rejection to the shit-show that is living life as female, as it appears to him to be a valid comparison (fml)."
"They are the ones that become the true matriarchs- the women who contribute their valuable life experience and maternal instincts towards nurturing the next generation of functional, fruitful adults, not the aging feminist spinster taking fad yoga and adopting multiple cats trying to live in a real life parody of Sex and the City."
Yes ladies, if you adopt the submissive patriarchal ideal things will be right with the world, negating your personhood will payoff huge dividends as you'll be expected to raise the next generation of patriarchally screwed up women and men.
This is why it's important to have a long game mindset in your Masculine journey, don't be like the thirsty Beta who can't think 5 years ahead and is always clamouring for female attention, making him the prime target of the panicking "empowered" woman seeking a chump willing to take any woman to settle down with. Focus on improving yourself and success, along with high quality feminine women worth your investment will naturally come.
*sigh* – Stupid 'sage' advice for the conclusion. Avoid those females with notions of personhood and wait to attract the perfect slave befitting your station. :(
This shit makes me tired. The amount of horrible is off the scale, and yet it dribbles forth with disquieting regularity from dudes who think they have the great game of life down and are grasping the bull by the horns.
I hope, by quietly pointing out that our MRA friends are not grasping the horns, but rather are elbow deep into the rectal fissures of said bull, that people can see how the societal system known as patriarchy fucks with people on an individual level, leading them to the dehumanizing conclusions we see on display here today.
Arb out.
"Women aren't hated for being feminine, femininity is forced on us because we are hated. we don't naturally apply make up, wear constricting clothing, shave our natural body hair and stay quiet even when we are upset with something. we are conditioned to do this because women are supposed to take up as little space as possible and erase traces of our growth both physically and mentally. women who refuse to perform femininity demand their space and they demand to be heard. they cannot be neutral in a highly gendered society; they are punished for not conforming."
Femininity literally is weakness forced upon us. Being quiet, serving and submissive is not anything that can be reformed into some good, new kind of gender. We literally modify our bodies. We are trained to serve and be available. We are trained to hate ourselves and not strive too far, lest our oppressors may be displeased.
Femininity is the socialization of the oppressed class.
I'm at a loss as to what I can add to this. The least I can do is share this important video from my longtime hero, Vihart.
"I don't want to see penis when I go to the washroom; he just stands there with the stall open and it makes me uncomfortable.".
That was the quotable bit from a conversation I had with a female student I happened to be teaching at an elementary school this week. We were walking in from recess and Jaina brought this to my attention. I couldn't detect any hate or malice in her statement, as she had just been playing convivially with Dakota (Male to Trans) minutes before. I told her that she had every right to feel uncomfortable as the situation she described was not appropriate in terms of what was happening in the bathroom… Jaina was surprised that a teacher agreed with her and her feelings of discomfort. I was going to suggest that she remind Dakota to shut the door but the conversation ended as we entered the school.
I hope that by listening to Jaina and supporting her statement she will talk with her teacher and her Dakota to sort that issue out.
The conversation caught me by surprise (as with most occurrences while teaching behaviour classes) and in the moment I had to negotiate between the child's feelings and the official school board policy on gender and washrooms.
Review of the policy in question came down to these points –
Indicators of this best practice in action (pg.9)
• Students are able to access washrooms that are congruent with their gender identity.
• A student who objects to sharing a washroom or change-room with a student who is trans or gender-diverse is offered an alternative facility (this scenario also applies when a parent or other caregiver objects to shared washroom or change-room facilities on behalf of their child).
I certainly hope that Jaina's concerns are heard and action is taken as traditionally the concerns of girls, and females in general, are all to often thrown under the bus.
The debate over respecting the boundaries of females has spilled over the border and has galvanized protests at the Alberta legislature.
"Both were there as participants in two similar, yet very different, rallies scheduled only an hour apart. The crux of both protests was the controversial Bill 10. The first one took place to support trans rights while the second was organized to give displeased parents a voice against the bill. The bill, originally passed by the Progressive Conservative government in March 2015, focuses on students having access to gay-straight alliances."
No problem with GSA's, but what the protesters are objecting to is this from the guidelines sent to the public schools. This quote from page 6 of that document:
"Some students have not disclosed their sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression beyond the school community for a variety of reasons, including safety. In keeping with the principles of self-identification, it is important to:
• inform students of limitations regarding their chosen name and gender identity or gender expression in relation to official school records that require legal name designation; and
• protect a student's personal information and privacy, including, where possible, having a student's explicit permission before disclosing information related to the student's sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression to peers, parents, guardians or other adults in their lives.
Wherever possible, before contacting the parents or other adults involved in the care (such as social workers or caregivers) of a student who is trans or gender-diverse, consult with the student to determine an appropriate way to reference the student's gender identity, gender expression, name and related pronouns."
One can see where parents might be concerned as schools have been directed to withhold information regarding their children. Keeping parents out of the loop with critical information regarding their children isn't a good policy as parents or one's family is responsible for the child's well being for all the time the child is outside of school.
Conversely, a child from a family holding traditional views on gender or sexuality would be placed in a tenuous position, facing a bevy of negative consequences at home for going against her or his family's values.
The legislation as worded has the very distinct possibility of creating a culture of distrust between the school and the parents. Open discourse and communication are key in maintaining the school/home relationship that is vital for student success in the academic environment.
Adequate supports must be in place for students whose values differ from their parents, and schools should be facilitating the dialogue between children and their parents. Withholding pertinent information from parents only places schools in opposition to families thus removing a foundational connective bridge in educational process – and that benefits no one.

"To make sense of these ideas [conceptions of gender] and decide what you think of them, it's helpful to understand a bit of history—the history of feminist and sexual radical ideas. There are three main questions we think it's worth pursuing in more detail:
- Is it true that radical feminism is/was 'essentialist' in its view of gender?
- What is, and what was, the relationship between the politics of gender and sexuality?
- What do radical feminism and queer or 'genderqueer' politics have in common, and what are the key differences, and what are their respective political goals?
Is/was radical feminism essentialist?
Let's get one thing out of the way: there are essentialist varieties of feminism, currents of thought in which, for instance, mystical powers are ascribed to the female body or men are believed to be naturally evil, and some of the women who subscribe to these ideas might use or be given the label 'radical feminist'. But if we consider radical feminism as a political tradition which has produced, among other things, a body of feminist texts which have come to be regarded as 'classics', it's surprising (given how often the accusation of essentialism has been made) how consistently un-essentialist their view of gender has been.
As a way of illustrating the point, I've put together a few quotations from the writing of women who are generally considered as archetypal radical feminists—along with Simone de Beauvoir, often thought of as the founding foremother of modern 'second wave' feminism, which her book The Second Sex (first published in French in 1949) pre-dated by 20 years. Beauvoir was no essentialist, and though she did not use a term equivalent to gender (this still isn't common in French), she makes many comments which depend on distinguishing the biological from the social aspects of being a woman. One of my favourites, because of its dryly sarcastic tone, is this: 'Every female human being is not necessarily a woman; to be so considered she must share in that mysterious and threatened reality known as femininity'.
One early second wave feminist who has often been castigated for essentialism (because she suggested that the subordination of women must originally have been due to their role in reproduction and nurturance) is Shulamith Firestone, author of The Dialectic of Sex (1970). Yet in fact Firestone did not see a social hierarchy built on sex-difference as natural and inevitable. On the contrary, she states in Dialectic that
"just as the end goal of socialist revolution was not only the elimination of the economic class privilege but of the economic class distinction itself, so the end goal of feminist revolution must be… not just the elimination of male privilege but of the sex distinction itself: genital differences between human beings would no longer matter culturally."
In the slightly later writing of the French radical materialist feminist Christine Delphy, gender is theorised as nothing but the product of hierarchical power relations; it is not a pre-existing difference on which those relations are then superimposed. Delphy's is a view which less radical thinkers find extreme, but whatever else anyone thinks of it, it could hardly be less essentialist. As Delphy herself says:
"We do not know what the values, individual personality traits or culture of a non-hierarchical society would be like, and we have great difficulty imagining it. ….perhaps we will only be able to think about gender on the day when we can imagine non-gender."
All the writers I have just quoted are women who 'can (and do) imagine non-gender'. This willingness to think seriously about what for most people, including many feminists, is the unthinkable—that a truly feminist world would not just operate without gender inequalities but actually without gender distinctions—is, we would argue, one of the hallmarks of radical feminism, one of the ways it stands out as 'radical'.
Another thing that makes radical feminism stand out is the way it connects gender to sexuality and both to power. Catharine MacKinnon's writings make the connection particularly strongly, as in the following passage taken from Feminism Unmodified (1987):
"The feminist theory of power is that sexuality is gendered as gender is sexualised. In other words, feminism is a theory of how the eroticization of dominance and submission creates gender, creates women and man in the social form in which we know them. Thus the sex difference and dominance-submission dynamic define each other. The erotic is what defines sex as inequality, hence as meaningful difference. This is, in my view, the social meaning of sexuality, and the distinctly feminist account of gender inequality."
This shows that some well-known radical feminists have taken a non-essentialist view of sexuality as well as gender. Indeed, one of the most radically un- or anti-essentialist accounts of sexuality we can think of—as radical as any queer theorist's work in rejecting the idea of fixed and finite sexual identities—comes from the radical feminist Susanne Kappeler in her book The Pornography of Representation (1986):
"In a political perspective, sexuality, like language, might fall into the category of intersubjective relations: exchange and communication. Sexual relations – the dialogue between two subjects – would determine, articulate, a sexuality of the subjects as speech interaction generates communicative roles in the interlocutors. Sexuality would thus not so much be a question of identity, of a fixed role in the absence of a praxis, but a possibility with the potential of diversity and interchangeability, and a possibility crucially depending on and codetermined by an interlocutor, another subject."
Later on we will explain why we think these radical feminist ideas about gender, sexuality, identity and power actually pose a far more radical challenge to the status quo than the ideas of queer politics.
Joan Scanlon: As Debbie said earlier, I was completely bewildered when the two young women in Edinburgh asked why The Trouble & Strife Reader (2009) didn't have more in it about gender. I rang Su Kappeler (see the quotation from her above) and she said: "The thing is Joan: it's like what Roland Barthes wrote somewhere, that if you have a guide book to Italy you won't find Italy in the index – you'll find Milan, Naples or the Vatican…" So I thought about this, and realised that while this was certainly true, there was something else going on: it was as if the map of Italy had disappeared (quite useful as a way of connecting Milan, Naples and the Vatican), and instead, the geographical, political and economic reality of Italy had been replaced by a virtual space in which Italy could be a masked ball, a tricolour flag, an ice-cream parlour – or any combination of free floating signifiers. And so, returning to the concept of gender, I realised that we need reconstruct that map, and that we needed to look at the question historically to make sense of this shift in meaning.
Of course maps change, as political boundaries change – but you won't get far without one. We need therefore to look at why feminists adopted the term gender to describe a material reality – the systematic enforcement of male power – and as a tool for political change. I am going to start with a few definitions, then talk briefly about the history of sexuality, the relationship between gender and sexuality, and how the relationship between those two constructions has changed since the beginning of the last century. I am also going to look briefly at what feminism has in common with queer politics, and at where the key differences lie.
Definitions: feminism, gender, sexuality
When I was writing something with Liz Kelly in the late 1980s, we decided that with the proliferation of 'feminisms' we needed to assert that the term feminism was meaningless if it just meant whatever any individual wanted it to mean. In other words: You can't have a plural without a singular – so we defined feminism simply as "a recognition that women are oppressed, and a commitment to changing that". Beyond this, you can have any number of differences of opinion about why women are oppressed and any number of differences about strategies for changing that.
In our 1993 tenth anniversary issue of T&S we then asked several women to define radical feminism and the definitions all have this in common: they take as central that gender is a system of oppression, and that men and women are two socially constructed groups which exist precisely because of the unequal power relationship between them. Also, they all assert that radical feminism is radical because it challenges all relationships of power, including extreme forms such as male violence and the sex industry (which has always been extremely controversial within the women's movement and an extremely unpopular issue to campaign against). Instead of tinkering around the edges of the question of gender, radical feminism addresses the structural problem which underlies it.
To define gender, therefore, seems a necessary step in understanding the proliferation of meanings which have come about in its now plural usage. Gender, as radical feminists have always understood it, is a term which describes the systematic oppression of women, as a subordinate group, for the advantage of the dominant group, men. This is not an abstract concept – it describes the material circumstances of oppression, including institutionalised male power and power within personal relationships – for example, the unequal division of labour, the criminal justice system, motherhood, the family, sexual violence… and so on. I should say here that very few feminists would argue that gender is not socially constructed; I think radical feminism is only accused of biological essentialism because it has been so central in the campaign against male violence, and for some reason we are therefore accused of thinking that all men are innately violent – which I have never understood. If you are involved in a politics of change, it would be fairly pointless to think that anything you were seeking to change was innate or immutable.
If gender is seen, under patriarchy, as emanating from biological sex – sexuality is essentialised if anything even more – as it is seen to emanate from our very nature, from desires and feelings which are quite outside of our control, even if our sexual behaviour can be regulated by moral and social codes. And so to conclude with definitions, I will borrow Catherine MacKinnon's definition of sexuality as 'a social process which creates, organises, directs, and expresses desire'. Apart from pointing out that this clearly indicates that radical feminists understand sexuality to be socially constructed, I won't unpick this further here, as I hope it will become clear from what I go on to say."
