White women have it better than any other group - including white men. Feminism is a ploy to continue their privilege. Discuss.
White female privilege

"Since my president recently called me in to that office and basically yelled at me that I wasn't going to resign instead of go on family leave, then I would say, no. Not for young or old."
You might have gotten yelled out but you're still getting your leave aren't you? What if a man had asked for the same thing?

This should make you understand how much the president values you compared to the male collegue.
HINT: it might not be about gender
No actually, I still have not.
The white male who asked for same? Got leave and following spring schedule is being altered to accomodate him being at home more. He has not mentioned being questioned on his ability to do his job after leave. -
Well, my endowed chair says I was pretty highly valued, as well as my multiple commendations from other administrators.
Male colleague is untenured. But he is cheaper, as will the permanent visiting that will replace me.
But thanks, I already feel pretty worthless. THanks for adding to that. -
oh sorry, I hope that wasn't too bad of a microaggression.
I'm sure the truth is that your President is a sexist pig.

So you have a husband probably... How much does he make relative to you? How many guys have spouses in a similar position? Face it, if you wanted to be a career-oriented person, you have that option. If you want to marry up and be a housewife, you have that option. If you want to do a bit of both, you have that option. Most men do not.
The median white woman might have a pretty good life compared to the median white man, but the richest, most educated white men have a lot of advantages in life compared to everyone.
Okay, but then why feminism? Why not Marxist revolution, or something.
Only applies to hot white women
Probably true. The idea of male privilege makes little sense to me when I think of my mom's life. My mom is not very smart, super-entitled and fairly lazy. She worked full-time for about 8 years and married a well-educated professional able to support her. She was a homemaker for some years after that, but we essentially took care of ourselves by the age of 12 (so based on the age of my youngest brother, let's give her 16 years of being a mom).
For her "work", she has a pretty enviable retirement. Her husband is really handy, undemanding, and if she was smarter, they could have really deep conversations. I dunno, I feel like my mother was rewarded out of proportion to her productivity (and yes, cue insults about how I'm a bad son, etc.).

You're thinking of young white women. They clearly face greater age discrimination in both the workplace and in life than men do.
Hard to say. Older women entered the workforce when feminism was less prevalent, and yeah, there are going to be some residual effects of that. I'm not sure if we can say that young women entering the workforce now will face the same.

you sound real smart bro
OP argues that white women have it better than any other group and then calls a white women a slut.
Yeah and everybody came to her defense.I've trolled things you could never imagine bro.
Flame wars on the shoulder of Reddit.
I watched bronies glitter in the dark of somethingawful.
All those... moments... will be lost in time, like *cough* tears...in... rain.Oh wait s**t, I'm not a replicant. I can just troll again.
