Eagle Forum, founded by Phyllis Schlafay, tried to promote the position that International Womens Day is just a day to advance radical feminism. The site condemns the U.S. government for supporting the day, saying:
Today, IWD serves to advance radical feminism in the form of promoting pro-abortion and pro-gay rights legislation, ratification of ERA, affirmative action for women, Title IX, government babysitting services, and government wage control, commonly camouflaged as "pay equity" or "comparable worth.
Well, hmmm...I guess I kind of agree...I mean, if promoting choice and equality is advancing radical feminism, count me in!
Here is the entire post.

Oh Phyllis...
"Today's feminists and CEDAW advocates view 'progress' as government-run day care, greater access to abortion, the elimination of 'Mother's Day' because it promotes an 'negative cultural stereotype,' decriminalization of prostitution in China, and government-mandated workplace benefits that men do not enjoy, just to name a few," said Schlafly. "Their goal is not equality, but preferential treatment."
I mean,I don't even have to say anything. That quote totally speaks for itself.
with love,
an out and proud radical feminist.
Which one of these goals is radical? Ratification of the equal rights amendment? Pro-gay rights?
Let's be real about this...Eagle Forum is a bunch of old school fuddy-duddies who are too caught up in their own self-righteousness to know their left from their right.
I try not to worry about them.
