What's the deal with feminist myths?

Yes, its phrased as a rhetorical question. Such as:

We are all on a discussion forum, aren't we?

Do you personally beleive that there are a higher percentage of male teachers today than in the past?

"A lot more men *are* participating in the raising and education of children these days than ever in the past, aren't they?"

LOL, I don't have a "personal belief" about percentages of people in occupations...that's rather a factual assessment as opposed to a subjective opinion.  I really don't *know* if there is or not...when I get a chance this evening, I will snoop around on the 'net and see what I can come up with.

Feminists are always passing off personal opinions as facts.

My bullshit radar has picked up on the "If women in these professions fell off the face of the earth mankind would shit itself, if there is anything wrong with the outcome of these people and their impact on children, remember there are men there so I am alluding all fuckups to men....but not really...wink wink..."

You're right Mr. Benn, there is a lot of sidestepping going on here.

That'd be true, if only I'd ever said I thought there were more fuckups in today's childrearing and education than in the past...I'm pretty sure I didn't, though, because I don't think there are.

One of the original goals of feminism was the destruction of the family, which is regarded as patriarchal oppression. This has been largely achieved, and what is left of the family in the West is now more unstable than ever. The next step is probably going to be the increased control over child-raising by the government.
