   Brilliant repost straight from DAMMIT JANET! – One internetz for those folks over there, stat!

“If you are an anti-feminist woman and you vote — even for candidates who’d stop that nonsense in a nanosecond — you didn’t build that.

If you are an anti-feminist woman and you enjoy the rights of contract and property law — you didn’t build that.

If you are an anti-feminist woman but sadly divorced yet benefitting from family law reforms (allowing you to have custody of your children, for example) — you didn’t build that.

If you are an anti-feminist woman who practices safe, legal family planning including contraception and abortion (we won’t tell anyone) — you didn’t build that.

If you are an anti-feminist woman who wants to or needs to work ‘outside the home’ — you didn’t build that.

If you are an anti-feminist woman who works and is paid the same as the man in the next cubicle — you didn’t build that.

If you are an anti-feminist woman who has achieved higher education — you didn’t build that.

If you are an anti-feminist woman in a profession formerly seen as ‘male’ — you didn’t build that.

If you are an anti-feminist woman with recourse to sexual harassment/discrimination remedies in the workplace — you didn’t build that.

If you are an anti-feminist woman who needs daycare for her children — you didn’t build that.

If you are an anti-feminist woman who took maternity leave to have those children — you didn’t build that.

And if you are an anti-feminist man whose mother, sister, daughter, wife, girlfriend, and female friends benefit from any of those things — you CERTAINLY didn’t build that.

Anti-feminist women love to SHRIEEEK: ‘Feminists don’t speak for me!’

No. We don’t.

But our accomplishments — and ongoing struggles — benefit ALL of you.

You’re welcome.”
