Feminist protest in European Parliament

[Radharc]

Just read this today, this female italian MP decided to take her newborn child with her to an European Parliament session as a protest for the obstacles women face trying to be mothers and professionals at the same time.

Its hard to be both? No sh1t Sherlock, have you ever considered the possibilty that maybe there are more important reasons that structure reality (and have done so for thousands of years) than just some feminist whim, like a biological imperative.

Who is all this social effort to reconcile motherhood and professional careers really helping besides some female individuals with a spoiled mentalilty? I dont see how having a special standard for women where you demand less from them (availability and the possibility of long absence to have and take care of their childs) but they still earn the same as men really is fair.

I´m all for equality, but that means that if women want the same things as men on their professional careers they should give up on motherhood, or settle for having less responsabilites, and thus less chances of climbing the hierarchy.

This is getting ridiculous, it baffles me how rational, adult human beings cant figure this out. It just doesn´t make any sense.

They are fanatics blinded by the word EQUALITY. ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL. Nothing new...communism...exactly the same idea, disregarding biology, nature and common sense trying to bend society to their will.

I want to be a mother and to have my career (money). Sounds like a child who doesn't wants to do the homework and still get good grades.

Why is it possible that you (taxpayer) will pay for that to compensate the business owner or how come a businessman has to employ a person even though he knows the person won't give 100% effort? Because the owner is viewed as rich filthy capitalist pig by those socialists. Meanwhile "poor" people suffer injustice - can't have it all as they should.

Sounds pretty selfish right? Yeah even more in a context of much bigger problems. Who voted for that MP? Meanwhile euro is in trouble and kids in Africa are dying by tens of thousands, she wants to have a right to half work half babysit.

I checked and she´s from Berlusconi party, so that means she is supposed to be a right wing conservative, but with Berlusconi you never really know what to expect.

Anyways, I think this feminist crap now goes a lot deeper than classic rightist vs. leftist divisions. Ppl are self-serving everywhere in the political spectrum.

And this it probably also a move from this mp to boost her political career, at least in her official site she looks really "proud" of what she did, judging by the the media references to the protest she placed there.
