This is what feminism looks like
This is what feminism looks like: Bitter, clingy, and effete.
Oh, sorry, Mizzzz Erbe. Didn’t mean to spew my venom all over yours:
Teri Christoph, whom I have never met, asked me to stand up for conservative women who were maligned by an online article on Playboy magazine’s website. The article has since been taken off the site, but the gist of it was, indeed, disgusting, sexist, of course pornographic, and demeaning to conservative women. The article contained a list of conservative female media commentators whom the author said men would like to, er, have sex with but hate at the same time, or something nonsensical like that. Ms. Christoph sent me a link to a cached page of the now-removed article.
…I also want to note that at least one woman on the list is so venom-spewing, she unfortunately invites venom to be shot back at her: Michelle Malkin. Her posts and her “routine” are so venomous and predictable, in fact, I stopped paying attention to her years ago.
Others on the list, however, are not venom-spewing at all. One woman mentioned on the atlasshrugs2000 blog is a regular guest on my PBS show. Amanda Carpenter, on the show at least, eschews personal judgment of people with whom she disagrees politically. So her inclusion on the Playboy list is much more offensive to me than is the inclusion of Ms. Malkin, although their political views may not differ greatly.
Translation: It’s not okay to talk about “hatef**king” conservative women…unless they are rowdy, incivil conservative women who don’t behave nicely enough to be on my obscure PBS show. In which case, they deserve all the vulgar misogynist attacks they get!

The comments on Erbe’s post are priceless. I’m sure I’ll be blamed for all the “venom” commenters have been “spewing” there before I even linked it. Heh.
Sample:
Venom fantasy
So Erbe states she stopped paying attention to Malkin “years ago” but is convinced Malkin spews venom and therefore should expect this type of thing. So you don’t actually read her commentary but just know she is vile. Sort of like how Harry Reid has never read any of Sotomayor’s opinions, but just knows she is awesome (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D22_p7CkICE). Got it. No facts or evidence needed here.

Ms. Erbe, Kindly Do Us All a Favor Next Time …
some conservative group naively sends you an e-mail asking you to support them, and have your IT people place their domain in your spam folder. That way you don’t even have to see their request, much less feel compelled to offer the group your “support.” (While you’re at it, maybe you could see about having them block us people who were directed here from “right wingnut” sites, so you don’t even have to read comments like mine).
You’ll be doing yourself a favor, too. Based on the comments on this story I’ve read on various sites from your fellow leftists, I’m certain that over 90 percent of your typical readers feel that every woman on that list “had it coming” just like you feel that Michelle Malkin did, and that a number of them may even feel that they would be asking for an actual, physical rape because of their conservative political views. By offering this kind of tepid, conditional “support” for the enemy, all you’re doing is alienating and confusing your reader base.
Since you’ve already given conservatives the back of your hand, who will be left to read your columns if you drive away the liberals?
***
US Snooze…
“As a nonpartisan, pro-abortion, liberal Democrat, I was perfectly happy with the leftwing misogynist haters at Playboy talking about how they would rape Michelle Malkin…”
No wonder I wasn’t aware that U.S. News was still in circulation; your columnists are just as bad/irrelevant as they used to be.
***
Pathetic
It’s this kind of twisted faux-”independence” and faux-concern-for-women that made me stop watching To The Contrary.
Given an opportunity to stand up for all women, even those Erbe disagrees with, Erbe instead chooses to use the opportunity to attack Malkin and imply she ‘deserved it’. Awful.
And if you’re going to made such an awful accusation – again implying Malkin would deserve to be hate-f***-ed, how about including some piece of accusatory evidence? What exactly has she written that’s so “venomous”? Of course Erbe has no ability to do so, and admits her own ignorance of anything Malkin’s done – to quote, “I stopped paying attention to her years ago”.
***
Unbelievable
Wow. Malkin’s inclusion is less offensive to you because she does not eschew personal judgment of people with whom she disagrees politically. Go home tonight and sip some green tea, stroke your cat, close your eyes and try to reflect (if you can) on the sublime irony of that statement.

I’ve learned so many new phrases lately. All from the left.
Teabagging
Hatef**k
They truly are word-smiths.
Bear1909 I agree, it makes me a little uneasy whenever the conversation goes there. It’s just not classy and I think the best way to think about it is, would you say it in front of her hubby or herself. Good call.
Bear1909, you are a class and forthright spirit, thank you for you food for thought.
Erbe (I’d never heard of her before) needs to get a grip. “Nonsensical”? This is rape – and it is actual, vicious, and can ruin a woman’s psyche for life. Sorry Ms. Erbe but I think you are an idiot for trivializing what can be the worst thing ever to befall a woman. You’re a traitor to your own gender – and to humankind.
Erbe is just PO’d because no one has shown any kind of sexual interest in her for years .
Rape is not sexual interest…
Man the scum sure rises to the top in these kind of threads…
bear, if I weren’t an old married lady – trying to be the latter anyway
– I could fall for you big time. Thank God the notion of chivalry isn’t dead and buried! Blessings to you and yours.
Name calling Joy? How liberal of you…
How is it that this woman can ignore the plain facts of this vile article.
The article was in no way about wanting to have “sex” with any of the women named. It was about some perverse fantasy where the writer could brutalize, hurt and humiliate women because he disagreed with their political views and opinions.
There is nothing “nonsensical” about this. It is simply perverse and displays serious pathological mental problems. To state that the person who wrote this article is merely unbalanced is to vastly understate the matter.
The left is full of vile, evil, sick demented people who would wreak havoc on society if they are ever unleashed to work their true desires.
And this woman making light of other women being brutalized is beyond sickening. What has become of our society?
Thank you all very much for the kind and affirming words.
I hope we all keep holding each other accountable as we move forward in countering this onslaught on freedom and truth in America.
PS: Please let the President know that his “statement” about the killing of our US Service man in Arkansas was not an act of “senseless violence”….it was an act of war on American soil and we object to his gross mischaracterization of the incident, and his blaring dereliction of duty.
WE WILL NEVER SUBMIT!
Bear1909 out.
Not very often, but sometimes there’s nothing else to be said, especially to sick idiots like you who think rape is about sex. How liberal of YOU.
Bear and WarEagle – Thank you for standing up for truth and being real men.
It’s sickening to see how many men and women are willing to fluff this off.
Smart conservative women do not need feminists to defend them.
They stand out among the crowd because of their intelligence, courage, independence, and achievements. They don’t need Government mandated quotas – aka affirmative actions – OR feminist defenders on their side to achieve their success.
Only the stupid-ugly-under-achiever-insecure women would need a support group like feminists and Affirmative action quotas without which they would be unable make a living.
Selfish politicians would hand out the quotas to these women for their votes. Porn peddlers and opportunist Leninist leaders can not survive but for such women.
Puh-leease.
You need to grow up and get the stick out of your a$$.

When it comes to what is appropriate to include in a rape fantasy, I would hope that a wise Filipina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white female who hasn’t lived that life…
That’s a contradiction in terms!
Isn’t Sarah Palin a feminist, a member of “Feminists for Life”? Gotta love these little side-efforts [feminism] of socialism…
“We must now say proudly and without any exaggeration that apart from Soviet Russia, there is not a country in the world where women enjoy full equality and where women are not placed in the humiliating position felt particularly in day-to-day family life. This is one of our first and most important tasks…. Housework is the most unproductive, the most barbarous and the most arduous work a woman can do. It is exceptionally petty and does not include anything that would in any way promote the development of the woman…The building of socialism will begin only when we have achieved the complete equality of women and when we undertake the new work together with women who have been emancipated from that petty stultifying, unproductive work…. We are setting up model institutions, dining-rooms and nurseries, that will emancipate women from housework…. These institutions that liberate women from their position as household slaves are springing up where it is in any way possible.” ~ V.I. Lenin, The Task of the Working Women’s Movement in the Soviet Republic, 1919
Have you ever noticed, that when a point in a discussion becomes indefensible, they attack the individual. Sounds just like Islam.
And attorneys at trial.
(We have one in the family – not a trial attorney, though).
Erbe is one of the worst examples of those “compassionate” and “smaaaarrrt” liberals who are not afraid to let us what they really
think.
No thanks! If being a gentleman means having a stick you-know-where, I’ll just keep it. If you read the posts on this thread, you’ll see the majority think growing up includes learning to be respectful towards “a married woman raising children and managing a career”. Bear hit the nail on the head.
I lost any respect for the so called “femnist” after they didn’t stand up for Sarah Palin(or even Hillary Clintion).. It actually started before that when they do NOT condemn the muslim world for their treatment of women..
As Rush says, they truly ARE FEMINAZI’s.
Feminists long ago eschewed anything that made women distinctly feminine – like motherhood, marriage, having/caring for children, etc. They hate men so much that they turned a lot of them into the irresponsible, misogynistic, abusive SOBs they claimed they were (a self-fulfilling prophecy, really). They didn’t want women to be possessions or sexual objects, but then endorse things like promiscuity and contraception and abortion – all of which make women the possessions of men and – surprise! – sexual objects.
They don’t want us to be women. They want us – men and women – to be androgynous drones.
Actually, they do condemn the muslims for their treatment of women. They just don’t publicize it.
When Clarence Thomas was going through the SCOTUS approval process, the feminists were frothing at the mouth about the accusations brought by Anita Hill. Not a day went by when N.O.W. wasn’t condemning him as a sexual predator.
When Bill Clinton was accused by a number of women for being a sexual predator, the N.O.W. webpage came out with a tepid response that said if the accusations were true, etc. I know, I read it.
So, a liberal democrat got a by and a conservative black man got the full hate-filled treatment.
Just another day at the liberal office!
Erbe still has a job? Why? She isn’t original. The stuff she writes is kind of delusional, she see things that don’t exist. What do they call that…. oh yeah, she makes crap up.
Great.
Now a compliment is equated with disrespect.
You must be a Republican.
RWR
http://www.rightwingrocker.com
Nope, not a Republican. I didn’t say it was an insult…it’s just not appropriate to tell another man’s wife that you’d like to see her naked…it’s disrepsectful!!!
Once again you have a very salient point that shows a keen understanding of what is wrong with current pop culture and how it has infected everything.
Feminists and their male lapdogs act as if women and men are interchangeable. To acknowledge that they are in fact complimentary and are designed to be so, must inevitably lead them to admit that there is a designer and a reason for that design.
happy2behere said (#110):
Better compassionate and smart than vindictive and stupid, `eh happy? Would you want a Vice President who used state government to make life miserable for the ex of a relative and couldn’t name the newspapers she supposedly reads?
Maybe in your moronic little world, but if you are bringing respect into the discussion, then you didn’t read my initial statement to begin with.
RWR
http://www.rightwingrocker.com
You missed the point, idiot.
The point is that this waste of air is neither compassionate nor smart. It also speaks volumes about you that someone had to come here and explain that to you.
RWR
http://www.rightwingrocker.com
Hahaha!!! Putting “With all due respect” at the start of a sentence does not excuse whatever follows. I truly believe you meant that statement as a compliment, that doesn’t make it appropriate. Try saying that (it would be an honor to see you in the buff) to 10 attractive married women who are not your close personal friends and see how long it takes each of them to walk away from you. Try saying it to them in front of their husbands. You’ll find the occasional broad who will appreciate the comment, but no woman with class will like it. But apparently classy women live in a “moronic little world”.
Rightwingrocker – I read your initial statement… you should have quit while it was respectful. The long and short of it is for you, women are objects regardless of whatever else they are.
And it is disrespectful to tell any woman you want to see her naked, but especially a married one.
The subject of this post is about RAPING women you disagree with! In light of that your post was as OBTUSE as it was JUVENILE.
.
Just imagine the ‘Liberal’ outrage if a magazine ran a disgusting parody where Rush, Hannity, Beck, Savage and Ann Coulter gang-raped Katie Couric and then Nancy Pelosi.
Imagine. The outrage would last for months in the MSM. There would be calls for firings and boycotts. NOW would be apoplectic. Poor little outraged Libs.
absurd thought –
God of the Universe says
joke about raping women
if they are conservative
EVIL freedom lovers…
.
You had a bunch of good posts on this thread–including that last one!
Degrading conservative women??? Are you kidding? It’s liberal women who whore themselves out to anything and everything! If it weren’t for them, Playboy wouldn’t even be in business! LOL!
