Did anyone else see this Suzanne Venker person on The View just now?
She was peddling some claptrap book she's written about women need to pretend more to be a little helpless so we don't scare the menfolk. She pushes the idea that feminism did not free women and that women are waging a "war on men." I googled her and her aunt is Phyllis Schafly. Limbaugh apparently is a fan of hers.
Whoopi pointed out to her that women started raising their daughters to be independent after the 1950s women found themselves abandoned and having to learn about how to attend to the business end of the household. She tried to introduce the notion that not all women can count on a good partner in life. This woman just has no understanding of anything beyond some 1950s style of living in which the "little woman" is not an equal. She also didn't really address the need for second incomes in homes now. Just avoided that subject entirely.
I bring this to your attention because she will become the next generation's "Schafly," if given a pass. Rush's "feminazi" crap has become harsh and threatening and has been hammered on by men. What better way to slip the message in on women that with a bland looking female making the same arguments of "don't you worry your pretty little head, darlin' "?
