Is Misogyny Alive and Well With Some TBMs?

Post by _Yoda »

Brade asked BC an interesting question on Stak's chat thread:

I think most of them do better when in front of the stove.

I think it would be interesting to actually have a serious discussion regarding this issue.

BC, do you REALLY believe that women would be better off "in the kitchen" rather than in the work place?

What are you doing on a computer and out of the kitchen?


Ok I appologize. I was trying to keep my joke inline with the original question.

Look at the difference in funding between the ym/scouting program and the yw program in the average ward and tell me there is no preference.

Some of us, on the other hand, actually prefer a religion that includes some type of correlation with reality.

You are talking about people who belong to a regime ruled by a male heirarchy which has a written set of rules preventing women from serving in leadership positions. And you're wondering if some TBMs are misogynists?

Good grief! Liz just put herself in the conspiracy theorist yellow journalistic category (the largest) of anti Mormonism. All I did was note the faux pas of someone putting women behind the stove.

So, to answer the question: "Why do you think that? Better in what way?"

What about misandry in the whole of Western Society?

Why is it that men can like flowers but they can't wear them?

Why is that men can only wear plaid skirts?

Not to mention the fact that associating a belief that the optimum condition for both marital harmony and the raising of psychologically and morally healthy and productive children is to have the woman in the home the majority of the time, while the father, who is also home centered in his orientation, supports the family financially, with "misogyny" places Liz well into the muddiest fever swamps of late 20th century radical feminism.

Disappointing, Liz. Leave the politically correct epithets behind if you want to be taken seriously by conservative LDS with whom you may disagree on various issues.

Have you traced down the provenance of that quotation?

Actually, that stems from misogyny. The feminine is less than the masculine. A man doing something that has been determined as "feminine" for the society is not tolerated.

Just look at the way effeminate males are treated.
