Why real women are feminists...

Snatched from stellar45:

"Because women's work is never done,
And is underpaid or boring or repetitious
And we're the first to get fired.
And what we look like is more important
than what we do.
And if we get raped,
it's our fault.
And if we get beaten,
we must have provoked it.
And if we raise our voices,
we're nagging bitches.
And if we enjoy sex,
we're nymphos.
And if we don't,
we're frigid.
And if we love women,
it's because we can't get a real man.
And if we ask our doctor too many questions,
we are neurotic and/or pushy.
And if we expect childcare,
we're selfish.
And if we stand up for our rights,
we're agressive and unfeminine.
And if we don't,
we're typical weak females.
And if we want to get married,
we're out to trap a man.
And if we don't,
we're unnatural.
And because we still can't get an adequate, safe contraception,
but men can walk on the moon.
And if we can not cope or don't want a pregnancy,
we're made to feel guilty for getting an abortion.
And for lot, and lots,
and lots of other reasons
We are part of the women's liberation movement."
-Joyce Stevens
