I am reading a number of articles around the web which express various opinions about feminism, typically rather unpleasant opinions. I am delighted to find two articles which make mention of "conservative feminism".
A common theme amongst conservative women is a psychotic need to arrange, to organize, to have all aspects of life be a Laura Wingfield sparkling crystalline world, properly placed on an eloquent shelf for safe keeping and daily polishing, a truly exquisitely fragile world which shatters into shards with the slightest of disturbance, even a delicate hint of change.
Like Laura, conservative women become trapped within an illusionary glass menagerie.
I am inspired to share learning on this topic by our friend, Nihcole, who is a 21st Century Fox rather than being a bra burner stuck in Jim Morrison's 20th Century Sixties. I never much cared for the smell of overly padded burning bras; I much prefer the smell of political napalm in the morning, as many of you readers are learning.
These are four articles I selected to share with readers, articles about conservative feminism. Each article is well written, each article is easy to read and each article presents a different perspective on 21st Century conservative feminism. A short abstract is provided to perk your interest followed by a link.
Do join me up here in the 21st Century, I have never known learning to cause harm.

"Conservative feminism appeals to women on multiple levels... it calls on primal feminist archetypes, grants us careers, and preaches sexual satisfaction."

"For me, feminism was a dirty word, signifying a militant, man-hating movement that had degenerated to Marxist goddess-worship. The movement seemed entirely irrelevant, a far cry from the worthy battles waged by first wave feminists like Susan B. Anthony and others who fought for suffrage."
Feminism: Not Just for Radicals

"The conservative feminist believes in the inherent strength of women and their ability to achieve whatever they want without a crutch from the government. In fact, the conservative feminist believes that women being told they need a boost to get ahead is insulting to a woman's intelligence and resolve."

"...a jumble of vulgarians, bunglers, whiners, French faddicts, apparatchiks, dough-faced party-liners, pie-in-the-sky utopians and bullying sanctimonious sermonizers. Reasonable, moderate feminists hang back and keep silent in the face of fascism."
