Myopic Feminists

Commenting on the dust-up between Ann Romney and the ever-churlish Hilary Rosen, Linda Chavez made some right-on-the-mark observations on modern feminists. From The Washington Examiner:
Feminism as ideology eschews individual choice. Women must fit a certain mold; if they don't, they're either deemed in need of having their consciousness raised or dismissed as frivolous ninnies. ...

Feminists believe that the only legitimate role models for young girls are women whose lives mirror their own. Feminists don't want to expand choices available to young women so much as they want to limit the options to feminist-approved categories, and full-time homemaker clearly isn't on the list.

And just for fun, a classic from the past. Mrs. Clinton on how she rejected a life of "baking cookies" for life on the big stage.


Hear her roar.
