US Women's History class

Any thoughts?

Well...

I took a college course called US Women's History

Honestly, what did you expect? I mean... From your description it sounds like a completely bogus course - of course it will be populated by bogus people.

I guess my questions for you have little to do with your points, but with the content of the course. If you have time, please answer.

Did the course have anything critical to say about the various waves of feminism?
Was there any discussion about the history of misandry within the various movements?
Did the professor discuss the SCUM Manifesto? How was the work framed?
Was your professor critical of Western culture, in spite of the gains made by women? Was she critical of any other region of the world where women lack fundamental human rights?

Sounds like garden variety dumbfuck feminism to me

Hillary was called a warmonger. Trump was called a sexual assaulting, racist, misogynist, white bastard.

Which one is worse criticism?

Women can get extra services at strip clubs. Sometimes they might want it, but often they don't, because he's bottom of the barrel in terms of men, since he's basically akin to sex slave. Women like guys with status, and a built, but low class guy, is not status. They can do far better to get "extra services" from men who are strangers that are also attractive for having a good job and a car.

But then that would also be sexism against women, because that guy is using her for sex.

There is no pleasing women or winning with their arguments.

The thing you should have asked yourself is "how much did women actually contribute to US history?"

Then go searching for those answers. The women who actually made contributions to the history of the US were amazing women who deserve respect and recongnition... but I don't think there are enough of them to warrent a class.

I'm avoiding any 'gender studies' or Women's history.

You need to understand that most women hate men and see them as mere resources to exploit.

Take that with a grain of salt.

Sounds like to me with most of this bollocks these classes aren't designed to teach you anything but the teachers who run them are actually using it to push their bullshit ideology on you.

Now the big question is, whether or not you're feeling this is a battle worth fighting.

What my professor was getting at was that men went to strip clubs to exploit women, but for some reason when women do it, it is not sexual exploitation.

No? But but but but I thought there were no differences between men and women, except for what superficial things were socialized? /s

She said because at strip clubs, men can get "lap dances" and possibly go out back to get extra cervices. BUT, when women go to strip clubs, they can't get that.

Bullshit. Bull. Shit. Bull fucking shit on a flat-iron griddle. She's clearly never been. If you're a male stripper for a female audience, women do think they can get sexual services from you if they want them. To be a male stripper is to be a sex-worker, it comes with the territory. In fact, some male strippers only serve male audiences because they consider the female audiences to generally be more abusive. How much you wanna bet she's never actually been and is speaking purely out of her imagination?

In fact, have her talk to an experienced female stripper and ask her what she thinks of female clientele. She'll tell you the badly-behaved female patrons can be way more disrespectful than the male ones because-- hold on to your hat-- women are not taught to sexually-respect others as nearly to the same extent that men are. I think most feminists suffer from a total failure to appreciate how protective of women that men tend to be, especially since they gorge on their steady diet of atrocity stories of how pathological men are.

Really, and since sex-for-money is exploitative, how much money should a woman get for having sex to make the transaction less exploitative? A lifetime of financial support, methinks? That's what this "exploitation" accusation really boils-down to: a gut fear that prostitutes and strippers are selling a female resource too cheaply. And, since women lack minds of their own and are unable to make decisions, they've been brainwashed into doing it somehow.

Your teacher's analysis is riddled with selection bias and tendentious failures to notice a huge slice of reality-- write that on the feedback form you get at the end of the semester. I remember, one time, a feminist complaint that women in politics have their looks criticized while men don't. I'm sorry, but when he was in the Democratic primaries, Dennis Kucinich was routinely called short and ugly. Chris Christie got called a fatso more times than I can count. Trump's hair writes its own jokes. One time, Obama made the mistake of wearing a light brown suit to a press conference and everyone clucked their tongues over how lousy it looked on him. How many times have male politicians been lampooned in cartoons for jowls, paunches, comb-overs, bald heads, thick glasses, liver spots... yet despite their moronic idea getting repeatedly traduced by just an occasional look at realty, feminists nonetheless continue to soldier-on entertaining this lunatic fantasy of theirs that only women ever have their appearance judged.
