New Age Lifestyle

This Thread is to show Why we do what we do here at the Blog & Forum. 
Why is Female Empowerment so Important, and Why do so many "Radical Feminists" want to Feminize males?

We will List just what the 'superior males' had done in the past to Control Women and Girls.  Women need to remember that when people say it is so Wrong to Feminize a male and make him be Pretty & Sweet and Docile that Society sees No Problem inflicting that same circumstance on Females.  This is how the men have wielded Control over all these centuries.  The New Age Lifestyle Emboldens Women and Girls and gets them to see what the Society dictated over all these years was just to subdue and dominate the Females.

 We still have quite a ways to go before the gender gap is closed entirely, but women's rights have come a long way in the past 100 years or so. When you consider that women couldn't serve on a jury in all 50 states until about 50 years ago and that, for only the past 30 years, women have been able to get a business loan without a male cosigner, you get a sense of some of the huge challenges women have faced until relatively recently. In honor of Women's History Month and how far women's rights have come, we're looking back at some of the things women were not allowed to do until the 20th (and even 21st) century.

1Having their own passport
Until the 1930s, married couples were issued a joint passport on which only the husband's name appeared along with "and wife" or "accompanied by his wife," according to Craig Robertson's book The Passport in America. This was partly because many countries did not yet require a passport to enter (and therefore many couples wouldn't go through the trouble of applying for two) and partly because the idea that a married woman would be traveling alone was so inconceivable that no one bothered to plan for it. But in 1937, the Passport Division of the Department of State issued a memo eliminating the "wife of" requirement, and allowing married women to use their maiden names on their passports.

2Serving as permanent members of the military
During World War I, Loretta Perfectus Walsh became the first American woman to enlist in the military as anything other than a nurse. But it was not until 1948 that Congress passed the Women's Armed Services Integration Act, which permitted women to serve as permanent members of the military. Prior to that, they could only serve during times of war. Progress continued over subsequent decades, as women gained the right to enter U.S. military academies in 1976 and serve in combat in 2013.

Working jobs that were hazardous to their health or morals

As of 1929, multiple states had laws that prohibited women to take on so-called "dangerous" occupations. Kansas, for example, had a state law prohibiting women from working jobs "under conditions of labor detrimental to their health or welfare," whereas Washington and Michigan had laws that applied to jobs that were potentially hazardous to women's "morals" as well. Michigan's law went so far as to say no woman "shall be given any task disproportionate to her strength, nor shall she be employed in any place detrimental to her morals, her health, or her potential capacity as a mother." Mining was one job women were commonly excluded from participating in by law. And another was bartending. It wasn't until the 1970s that these laws started being overturned.

Keeping their money
Due to the coverture, the English common law system that prevented a married women from owning property, entering into contracts, and the like without her husband's say so, married women in the States were also not able to keep their wages. In the late 19th century, some states—like Oregon and New York—started to make strides toward equal property laws in marriages, but as of 1887, a third of U.S. states did not provide statutory protection for a married women to control her earnings. It wasn't until the 20th century that the whole country implemented laws that gave married women the right to keep their wages, instead of handing them over to their husbands.

Working the night shift
Similar to how certain jobs were seen as inappropriate or even dangerous for women, certain shifts were viewed the same way. The Factory Act of 1948 prohibited women who worked in factories from working outside of the hours between 6 a.m. and 7 p.m. But around that same time, these restrictions started loosening in other industries. A paper published in the Monthly Labor Review in 1951 highlights the restrictions in certain industries in 18 states that had such laws, including California, Connecticut, Delaware, and Indiana.

6Working while pregnant
Until the passage of the Pregnancy Discrimination Act of 1978, women could be fired for being pregnant. Some states even outright banned women from working during periods of time before and after delivery. For example, schoolteachers were often required to take unpaid maternity leave due to liability concerns and the idea that the pregnancy might distract the children.

7Serving on a jury
According to the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), as of 1927, only 19 states allowed women the right to serve on a jury. It wasn't a nationwide right until 1968 when the final state, Mississippi, relented in its refusal to let women do their civic duty.

8Voting
It was not until 1920 that the 19th amendment was ratified and women across the United States were granted the right to vote. The ultimate women's rights win came after a decades-long battle fought by suffragettes such as Susan B. Anthony, Lucretia Mott, and Elizabeth Cady Stanton. Some of the shockingly sexist reasons men gave over the years for banning women from voting, per The Washington Post, included: "A woman's brain involves emotion rather than intellect"; "The masculine represents judgment… while the feminine represents emotion"; and "Control of the temper makes a happier home than control of elections."  And women have been taking full advantage of their right to vote ever since they got it. In every presidential election since 1980, the proportion of eligible women who voted has exceeded the proportion of eligible men who voted, according to the Center for American Women and Politics at Rutgers University

9Getting divorced
Technically, women could get divorced throughout the 20th century, but it was such a difficult and messy process that many were dissuaded. Then California Governor Ronald Reagan signed the nation's first no-fault divorce bill in 1969, allowing couples to end their marriages on the grounds of irreconcilable differences. Before that, a spouse would have to show evidence of adultery, abuse, or abandonment (not always the easiest things to prove) and women would receive the bulk of the blame for tearing their families apart.

10Keeping their citizenship after marrying a non-American
Per the Expatriation Act of 1907, if an American woman married a non-U.S. citizen between 1907 and 1922, she would immediately lose her U.S. citizenship. The law granted that if that woman's husband later became a naturalized citizen, she could then also go through the naturalization process to regain her citizenship. The law was repealed with the Cable Act of 1922, but it's worth noting that none of these restrictions applied to men.

Because of the Size of this Post, there is a Part 2!

 Part one of the topic was so encompassing that it is hard to imagine what all might be in part two. But, we shall see.

100 years from now we will all be dead and buried. But quite possibly, Chris the Radical Feminist will be lauded as one of the Feminist Movement's forerunners  H.H.

  Perhaps that young empowered girl in the future will decide to share that article with her feminized brother so that he can understand his station in life.

Scusate ma dimenticavo una delle tante leggi assurde contro le donne:
Fino a 40 anni fa'in Italia, se uno stuprava una donna, per non finire in carcere, bastava che dichiarava che lo "stupro" era solo un modo di poter sposare una ragazza ( anche di 12/13 anni) e la ragazza era obbligata a sposare lo stupratore, come succede in certe nazioni, arabe.
Fu una ragazza siciliana, di paese vicino la mia città a ribellarsi, rifiutando di essere obbligata a sposare l'uomo che l'aveva stuprata. Da questo fatto di cronaca si incominciò a cambiare le leggi in Italia.
Chris, come vedi, per cambiare la società, non c'è bisogno di essere ricchi o famosi,  se la vostra rivoluzione parte dal basso, otterrete tanto, bastano certe volte le singole persone coraggiose a svegliare le coscienze, come questa ragazza Siciliana dâ sola contro il sistema patriarcale.
Per favore potresti tradurre questi miei commenti, per farli leggere agli altri?
Grazie

Buongiorno,
Lo spero tanto, che le Donne prendano il potere e gli uomini vengono tutti femminilizzati, anche obbligando i più restii e i più violenti, per eliminare i livelli di testosterone e aggressività, iniettando ormoni femminili, vedrai che diminuiranno tanti problemi, come reati, omicidi, violenze, guerre, eccetera....
