Limbaugh on Weiner: Blame Feminism…Not Testosterone

ABC’s “This Week” with Christiane Amanpour hosted a roundtable discussion with prominent women in politics. The conclusion of the panel?  Weiner and Weineresque scandals prove we need fewer men and more women in politics.

But according to conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh it might be women, at least feminist women, who are to blame for the Weiners of the world.  During Monday’s broadcast, Limbaugh placed the onus on liberal women who emasculate men and force them to suppress their male tendencies. The result, Limbaugh concludes, is an all out testosterone-fueled rebellion.

Here’s the thing – I wonder why is it that Anthony Weiner turns out to be the kind of guy he is? If we’re going to bring this stuff up folks – let’s talk about it. Let’s bring it up. Who, what kind of women has Anthony Weiner been around his whole life? He has been around a bunch of these kinds of women that have been attacking testosterone, who have been attacking traditional male roles. He had been around women who the idea of a real guy is some metrosexual.

    So many People want to come up with a reason for his sexual indesrcrtion. I have one. He is a Man and is not a Moral Led man. Some have asked if it is “cheating”. I go with Jesus on this one “But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.” Mathew 5:28. Yes IT IS Cheating to all whom cannot fathom such a thing. Its not that hard to figure out

    Blaming women for lack a male control is typical of the religious and Rush. No one is to blame for Weiner’s behavior but Weiner himself. Women are held to stauncher standards than men in politics. You rarely hear of women’s scandalous sex lives because if they were caught delicto flagrante while in office they would be run out of a rail with a big red “A” tattooed on their foreheads.

    “What if there were more women in politics?” These feminists gave us a glimpse of who wears the pants in their families. I didn’t hear any of these women extol the virtues of Sarah Palin. They simply wanted to take the focus off of Anthony Weiner. It’s not about testosterone or the male species. It’s all about the individual heart and what proceeds from that heart. More men are elected to Congress because they are generally regarded as being more detached or more trustworthy in a crisis situation.

    I‘m not sure you can blame Weiner’s behavior on women. I think you can only blame it on the fact that Weiner is a creepy guy and a pervert. In my state, sending nude photos to minors is a felony.Teens who send their OWN nude photo to someone else are also being prosecuted for it. Is anyone going to prosecute Weiner for his felonious actions? [insert sarcasm since the answer is pretty obvious.]

His wife should take him to the cleaners, divorce him and then find a real man who will actually respect her and respect their marriage.

    “Under patriarchy, no woman is safe to live her life, or to love, or to mother children. Under patriarchy, every woman is a victim, past, present, and future. Under patriarchy, every woman’s daughter is a victim, past, present, and future. Under patriarchy, every woman’s son is her potential betrayer and also the inevitable rapist or exploiter of another woman,” Andrea Dworkin, Liberty, p.58..

    “Compare victims‘ reports of rape with women’s reports of sex. They look a lot alike….[T]he major distinction between intercourse (normal) and rape (abnormal) is that the normal happens so often that one cannot get anyone to see anything wrong with it.” Catherine MacKinnon, quoted in Christina Hoff Sommers, “Hard-Line Feminists Guilty of Ms.-Representation,” Wall Street Journal, November 7, 1991.

    The women in this video exploit their own false premise that men and women are the same to then claim that women would be superior politicians.
    These liberal, progressive idea’s of equality for women and blacks only apply to liberal progressive women and blacks, not conservative women and blacks.
    You would think that feminist would cheer Sarah Palin because she is everything that feminist claim to endorse, yet they hate her for no other reason then she is a conservative.

It’s bad enough, if the tv is on, we are bombarded with enhancement drugs for men. Most of the time I don’t watch tv because I feel violated by the non-stop emphasis put on s*x products. (birth control as well) Please, the country needs some class about now and if men can’t rise above their vulgar tendencies to do actual “work” we are in a world of hurt. Oh wait we are, the economy s*cks, the president is trying to create a socialist country, and millions of people are losing their jobs and houses because it’s ok for male politicians to play with their weiner instead of concentrate on their jobs they were elected to do.

    Feminism is a bunch of BS!!!! Where’s the “equality”? Women now work twice as hard (home and job). We are still objectified in many/all instances. As a matter of fact, I argue that feminism is worse than racism. It is more insidious, it is still accepted by society, women are held to ideals that make them physically sick (models that are airbrushed), women still fear for their jobs when they have children (employers don’t care if your children are sick, they want you at work), the cost of daycare is friggin ridiculous (it’ll eat up most your paycheck),it has further enslaved women. In addition, look how much longer it took for women to get to vote vs. blacks.

    So if a few women strike back and objectify a man, now the root of the problem is women?! Just another point made- too bad Rush didn’t spend the time chastising feminists when it comes to Palin Syndrome. Shouldn’t feminists on the left and right be behind her- at least her right to run for office????

Every other man can be attacked for something as stupid as their sex within marriage is rape, but they’ll reluctantly support any guy, no matter how disgusting, and NOT support a woman, because of their god, some stirrups and a vacuum hose.

      I never found logic in feminism. Logically, feminists would preserve the family unit (as children are is the crowning achievement of women- I don’t care WHO hates what I just said), would work for equal pay and equal opportunity, would work against the Hollywood craze of airbrushing women into unachievable perfection- that causes little girls to starve themselves every day, and would speak out and demonstrate against Palin Derangement Syndrome. Needless to say, I have angered a number of “feminists” over the years- I never bought into the BS. I still love it when a man opens the door for me, takes me to dinner (and pays) and it makes me cringe when I see a man tethered to a baby carrier- because it’s HIS job too- I have no problem if it’s what he wants to do though. It is emasculating. My boys and daughter will be taught in these ways, not cr@ppy feminist ways.

      ‘You Go’ RN mom…when “social engineers” recognize that a society functions best when the society they strive to create functions best when foremost in their minds the notion that a ‘family unit’ is the basis of that society. The society consists of a male with testosterone wanting to impregnate a desirable female. If she knows and celebrates that she is female and desirable she will care for herself, and learn how to best nurture the children that will be born to her…both of them recognizing that their well being will be best served when she is able to nurture those children in a place that he understands that he must provide for her. In that place she will use her inborn nurturing skills to make it desirable and comfortable to live in.
