Half of single mothers 'do not want to work'

Half of single mothers 'do not want to work' claims new report

How much longer can the state hide from the fact that the welfare state, originally sold to us as a 'safety net', has become more like a hammock, on which millions of single mothers and the phoney-disabled (nothing against those who truly are unable to work) can lay back and allow others to support them.

And even working women must be sick of such lazy single mothers. As is increasingly becoming the case, women have less solidarity to eachother, as they become more defined by their jobs than their femininity, as touched upon in this article on the 'death of the sisterhood' (which also deals with the breakdown of the sanctity of marriage).

Anonymous said...: There was a report recently that employers state that they are being overwhelmed with litigation
and claims from working women to the point that they will be unable
to "run" normally.No doubt they will sack all the men.; 4:51 pm
Uncharted Thoughts said...: Nothing surprising here.
I don't think I've met a women in general who likes or wants to work.

Almost all the ones I've experienced just want to go on vacations, lunch with friends, and go shopping.

Nothing wrong with that by the way, but just admit it, stop lying and taking up university slots...; 2:17 am

Turn of the tide: feminists begin to regret

Cosmopolitan (The women's magazine that urges women to use men for sex) Editor Lorraine Candy has a change of mind and now urges women not to have "Soul-less sex":

"We didn't feel ashamed about one-night stands...this, we thought, is what feminism is about."

70s feminist Fay Weldon now says:

"It is the fault of me and my like, who... got it wrong.

So were we wrong, we feminists, setting women free? The results have been devastating – greater than we ever imagined.

We steamed ahead, changing the world with too little caution, and I hope the future will forgive us.

The pendulum has swung too far over. But it may yet swing back again. Societies, thank God, tend to be self-righting."

"Once a man could look forward to starting a family and the dignity that came from being the provider. Forget it. At best as a man you're decorative, look after the kids and earn a bit sometimes; at worst you're a write-off. Women are elbowing the men out. The boys get anxious, the girls swagger. The male suicide rate goes up, female down. Twenty-eight per cent of us now live in single person households - a lonely and unnatural state - and most of the 28 per cent consist of young men. It is strange that it is left to a woman to suggest, in the normal nurturing way, that men start some kind of movement to promote their gender's status and self-esteem - call it masculinism, brotherism, machoism, what you want - and some mark of the success of the feminist movement, that it needs to be done."

60's feminist Doris Lessing now says:

"It is time we began to ask who are these women who continually rubbish men. The most stupid, ill-educated and nasty woman can rubbish the nicest, kindest and most intelligent man and no one protests.

Men seem to be so cowed that they can't fight back, and it is time they did."

An excerpt from an interview with Joan Rivers:

"She's not with the feminists when it comes to matters of the heart. For her, they're to blame for the current parlous state of our relationships, as depicted in these television Shows (Such as Sex in the city) and films. "I saw this coming. You cannot be equal to a man, you cannot make a man feel 'I don't need you' or 'I'll take my sex when I want it'. All these shows are so sad."

Camille Paglia :

"Women have been discouraged from genres such as sculpture that require studio training or expensive materials.

But in philosophy, mathematics, and poetry, the only materials are pen and paper.

Male conspiracy cannot explain ALL female failures.

I am convinced that, even without restrictions, there still would have been no female Pascal, Milton, or Kant.

. . . Even now, with all vocations open, I marvel at the rarity of the woman driven by artistic or intellectual obsession, that self-mutilating derangement of social relationship which, in its alternate forms of crime and ideation, is the disgrace and glory of the human species."
