New breed of women, Myth of the wage gap, and the feminist bubble they refuse to get out of.

A female member of parliament and a female news anchor (each making over $150K/year) are trying to convince a female reporter that she's oppressed. The irony was too much.

That was terrible to see those two old feminists attack her like a couple of hyenas. But she seemed to handle it pretty well.

After watching this I feel inspired. I had never heard of Rachel Marsden but she did very well in that debate.

untalented or ugly

While that might be useful as a polemic or point of humor, I think that many of the Femen women are quite attractive, but they seem to grasp quite steadfastly to the feminist narritive. And a rather extreme one.

10/10 would date.

I liked the part when she said "one at a time ladies"

"Marsden first came to public attention for her role in the Simon Fraser University 1997 harassment controversy, and was the focus of media coverage for tumultuous breakups with a Vancouver radio host, an Ontario police officer, and the co-founder of Wikipedia, Jimmy Wales."

And this: "In 2004, Marsden was given a conditional discharge with one year of probation for criminal harassment of her boyfriend, a Vancouver radio show host, following a breakup.[18][19][20][21] In September 2007, a relationship between Marsden and an Ontario Provincial Police officer ended. She posted his photo and identified him on her blog as an anti-terrorism officer who had leaked secret anti-terrorism documents to her.[22] The officer filed a complaint of harassment against Marsden, but this was later dropped. The OPP launched a separate internal investigation into the alleged conduct of the officer.[23]

On more than one occasion Marsden asked Wikipedia to delete her biography on the site. Her concerns led her to contact Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales in 2006, claiming that it was wrong and libelous. Wales stated his involvement with her article was handled through the normal channels, and was "routine". He also says he "recused [himself] from any further official action", after their relationship became personal.[24][25] On February 29, 2008, the technology gossip blog Valleywag claimed Wales and Marsden had entered into a relationship, and published instant messaging chats they allegedly exchanged. On the following day Wales announced on his Wikipedia user page that he was no longer involved with her. In return, Marsden, who claimed to have learned about the breakup by reading about it at Wikipedia, turned to eBay and put up for auction a t-shirt and sweater with white stains that she claimed belonged to Wales."

Chick is nuts.

I don't want her speaking for me.

Oh Swimfan is loosely based on her...

She's a peach with no sense of irony: "One man's torture is another man's CIA-sponsored swim lesson."

the new lines of feminists are getting truly watered down and losing any history of a beautiful movement. First wave feminists were never our enemy, second wave was.

I hate putting down women but if they did a little unbiased research they'd not be feminists in the damn first place.
