11:08a - Internet War?

Ebaum's World, that wretched hive of scum and villainy known for its widespread internet thievery, was taken down a peg last night by those they take from. Actually, taken down a whole peg board.

The first war corespondent makes a report, and then metafilter gets in a report.

What's going on?

11:19a - My First Entry!
Well, I have ventured into wank_report and out I come with this: the feminists, at it again.

First, the OP says..."I am angry that advocating that the position of homemaker is an important and valid occupation in our society is not considered feminist.

Doth ye seek a reply? Oh, granted!

"I have no sympathy for women who tout how "feminist" it is for them to CHOOSE to remain ignorant and unskilled and economically dependent on men. Sorry, it isn't "feminist" when women choose to stay at home and keep house and limit their options while hubby is out advancing his career. It isn't 'feminist' for a woman to whine about how undervalued 'keeping house' is when they make the choice to keep house."

Oh yes, she did.

Apparantly, hypatiaswan pisses some people off pretty bad in there. Notably, [info]the_living_end, who chimes in with a mighty STOP CALLING IT HOUSE KEEPING.

Awww. Pwesious's feelings must be hurting. Ahh wank, the true purpose of LJ.

ETA: I would just like to say, I dont care one way or the other about what is or is not feminist. I just cant believe someone is so OMFG offended about it being called house keeping.

Labels dont define you unless you let them people!
