See, I oppose creating modern-day ghettos by clumping affordable housing in one area. Who shodul one neioghborhood bear the responsibility for housing the entire city's poor. Put low income housing in Spring Valley!

Every time I see it, it makes me angry. I have to refocus my liberal, feminist values to remind me that everyone gets to wear whatever they want, none of my beeswax.

But in my heart I "oppose" it.

I don't feel this way about the hijab, because I know the extremely varied reasons that Muslim women wear it - and that many women wear it as a big "fuck you" to patriarchy. I don't wear hijab, but I am Muslim.

However, I feel this way about the niqab or any other facial coverings. They are nowhere in the same league as hair coverings. I will never ever support face coverings, but couldn't give two shits about hijab or hair covers.

Do you mean the patriarchy who wants them to wear it?! Yeah, big f*ck you they have going there. Give me a break.

No, I mean that there are pressures for women, beauty, and hair. Many Muslim wear it as a "fuck you" to those beauty standards imposed on women. Think of it as like a Muslim version of letting your leg hair grow out, or armpit hair grow out. It's a "fuck you" to the system of what social beauty standards are imposed on women.

Yes, I am sure the men of the culture are offended by that statement. Sounds like the men came up with a "feminist" stance for the modern Muslim gals to get behind while still following the patriarchy.

The hijabi girls I know from EXTREMELY liberal and female-positive Muslim families, families that generally oppose hair coverings, would disagree. Believe it or not, attitudes and reasons change, and the reasons why people do things are highly variable. And not for you to decide. Strangely, what other people do, is not all about you (I know this may be difficult for you to comprehend).

Oh I was you. The whole anti-pink thing came back to bite me in the ass. I have a 4 year old who only wants pink now. ONLY PINK! She looks like a Hanna Andersson store blew up and all the pink clothing landed on her. She will go naked before wearing any other color. I had to pick my battles. She wears pink. Good luck and may the force be strong with you!

(I did tell her the only acceptable princess is Princess Leia!)

The only thing on your list I agree with is not hiring illegal immigrants, because we should be providing a path to citizenship and hiring illegal immigrants exploits them.

Why should we be doing this?

You are an idiot. This is what is wrong with modern feminism. I will take 1920's feminism any day.

Define imminent peril and in danger.

Why? It's not like my personal thoughts are going to lead to public policy

No one said they were going to. I, however, can think of quite a few reasons why formula feeding is necessary, and am wondering what your perception is. That's all.
