Discovering Feminism: It’s Time for a Redefinition

They frowned upon that up in there , but I don't know . When I woke up yesterday morning I just felt . So I felt hungover , but without the alcohol does that make any sense ? Kind of brain foggish . I didn't . You know , I didn't feel well at all , so I stayed home . But this morning , when I woke up , I felt good .

But then I woke up and started moving around . I started coughing a lung up . So I'm all drugged up this morning . I have Alka-Seltzer cold medicine in me , I have Robitussin cough syrup in me , I have uh , mucinex in me , yeah , so uh , but it's gonna be fine . I feel good , I feel fine .

Uh , just , you know , a little coffee and still a little teeny , tiny bit head congestion , but not much . All right , moving on , you don't really care about that , I guess , but I think the thing yesterday . Okay . I'm getting to the question of the day . Yesterday , though , even though I felt sick with a cold .

I was starving , I felt hungry all the time , so I ate like a grown man yesterday . So , but you know that saying feed a cold , starve a fever , that's my question of the day . What kind of saying that you grew up with with as a child do you still carry with you today ?

I know when the kids were younger teenage years and they wanted , they wanted to up their curfew to pass whatever time , and we , the gent and I , were always like nothing good ever happens after midnight . So what kind of saying that you grew up with do you still carry with you today ? That's the question of the day .

All right , moving on , Gene Hackman and his wife . Oh my gosh , I heard about this . Was it yesterday ? Yesterday was kind of foggy , I don't know when it was Yesterday or the day before , I can't remember , but they found him dead , her dead and one of their dogs . When they reported it it was when they .

When they first reported it , it was him and her and and their dog , and so I thought , oh my gosh , carbon monoxide poison . But then I thought about who who dies from that anymore . Do we even have houses like that ? I mean , I don't even know . I don't think that's a thing anymore , like that .

I mean , I don't even know , I don't think that's a thing anymore . So , but then I find out today that he was found in the mudroom like he had fallen , and they had more than one dog . The other dogs were not dead . So what is going on ? She was only 63 . They said the door was open . However , they played the 911 call and the guy said I don't know .

The guy who called in said I don't know , the house is all locked up . But then they report that the door was open . So what in the world is going on there ? I don't know , I don't know . Very weird Now . He was 95 . Still , she was only 63 . Something is up , all right , let's see Moving on . There was something else I wanted to talk about before .

Oh , oh my gosh , the Epstein phase one rollout with the social media influencers . I was surprised to see Liz Wheeler as one of them . Even Chad Prather . I was kind of weird , because Chad Prather , he's like a grown , older man , isn't he ? What is he doing up there as a social media influencer ? I'd be embarrassed . Um , but they rolled this out .

Pam Bondi knew damn good and well that she didn't have the goods , but she decided to release it . Is this what she thought the Epstein list was ? If so , shame , shame . Y'all . Get to work , get the files . You know where they are . Go get them . You're the bosses . Ain't nobody honing them back from you . If they are , then you're not being a good boss .

Go get the damn files and release them , period . Take care of the victims . And those social media influencers should be ashamed of themselves . They're either stupid which is probably the case , but I don't see Liz Wheeler as being stupid or they were just sucked in by all of this and just shameful , shameful , shameful , shameful .

Parading around with Epstein looks like they had something and just you know . Forget about the victims . They were like laughing and smiling . Liz Wheeler wasn't One of the girls up there was . But anyway , moving on , I have something else to say . I have something else to say and we're going to talk about this Libby state senator in Maine who was censured .

So I'm going to read the story to you first and then we're going to talk . Then I'm going to get into it . So main house censures a lawmaker for posts about transgender student representative lauren libby made the post days before president donald trump singled out main for its trans athlete policy .

Now they're saying they censured her because she put an athlete on her social media account without blurring the face out . But if you go back and look this up , you'll find this same person all over news organizations without their face being blurred out . So I don't want to hear it . That's BS .

Censure Representative Lauren Libby for posting on her legislative Facebook page photographs and personal details about a transgender high school athlete days after the post . Well , anyway , that's the gist of it . That's why they censured her . They silenced her . So now let's get into it .

Let's dive into the outrageous censure of Senator Libby , where the main house decided to punish a lawmaker simply for speaking out about the impact of transgender policies on women and girls . Now , this was what I was going to talk about yesterday .

I know it's a little bit older news , but I wanted to get to it today , so this episode might be a little bit longer than normal . This isn't just a mere political scuffle either . It's a blatant assault on free speech and a troubling indicator of how far we've strayed from genuine advocacy for women's rights .

Instead of standing up for Libby and defending her right to voice hers concerns , the so-called feminists yeah , where are they ? People always ask where are the feminists ? Where the feminists ? Well , they're not around . I don't know why those champions of female empowerment my husband's favorite word , empowerment have gone silent . Why ? Why ?

Because it's not convenient for their narrative . I think these feminists actually believe that women can become , that men can become women . That is not the right kind of feminism , ladies . No , become women . That is not the right kind of feminism , ladies . No .

It's appalling to see someone being incensured for raising legitimate questions about the implications of these policies on biological women's spaces and safety . What kind of message does that send ? That you could only speak up as long as you toe the line ?

Yeah , apparently this is a critical moment that highlights the hypocrisy within movements claiming to stand for women . If we can't support a woman like Libby , who has the courage to confront uncomfortable truths , then what are we really doing here ? This isn't just about one lawmaker either .

It's about the censorship of all women's voices , especially those who dare to challenge the narrative . True feminism demands solidarity , especially in moments like these .

It's time to stop the silence , rally behind the truth and redefine what it means to advocate for women in a broad and all-encompassing way , not to include men One that doesn't erase or silence women . Do I really have to take up the baton here for feminism of myself ?

Because for me , doing so would mean returning to its roots , embracing the original tenets of the movement that prioritizes women's rights .

It feels increasingly necessary to revisit foundational principles that sparked this vital cause in the first place Advocating for equal pay , accessing education and ensuring that women have the freedom to define their own identities and futures . That is the key there . For me , I think women are able to define their own futures .

If you want to be a stay-at-home mom , homemaker , yes , I cheer you on for that . To me , that's feminism . To me , that's what that means . And as far as reproductive rights go , as the progressive feminist calls it , I'm against abortion and it's called murder . What I am for is women taking responsibility to not get pregnant in the first place .

So there's that this isn't just about revisiting historical ideals . It's about recognizing how these core values have been diluted in the current climate . As I look around today , I see a need to reclaim a feminism that doesn't just ponder to trendy narratives or silence critical voices under the guise of inclusivity .

The guise of inclusivity it means standing up for biological women's rights , amplifying their voices and defending spaces that have been fought for by generations of activists . A true feminist movement should be about solidarity and ensuring that every woman is heard , valued and uplifted .

It's time for those of us who believe in an authentic feminism to step forward , challenge the status quo and create a space where all women can thrive all women , all women . Just because your woman doesn't mean you have to act a certain way or be a certain way . That's not what feminine so yeah , no , so yes .

If it falls to me , I will pick up the baton , because the fight for true equality rooted in respect for all women is far too important to leave in the hands of those who misunderstand or misrepresent it . And they have this . They , these women . The so-called feminists have misrepresented , have misrepresented feminism for far too long .

Just because we are women doesn't make us all think the same way or even want the same things . Can a conservative woman be a feminist ? Absolutely , a conservative woman can be a feminist . Feminism , at its core , is about advocating for women's rights , equality , and these principles can resonate across the political spectrum .

A conservative feminist may focus on issues like personal responsibility , family values and economic empowerment , emphasizing that women should have the freedom to make choices that align with their beliefs and lifestyles . Now listen , I know we have come a long way , ladies .

I don't want to be like the Black Lives Movement matter whatever that still thinks everybody's in slaves , and no , we're not like that anymore . We have come so far and we need to recognize that . The beauty of feminism is that it is not monolithic ideology . It encompasses a diverse range of perspectives and approaches .

A conservative woman may prioritize issues such as workplace flexibility for working mothers , advocating for policies that support family structures or promoting women's involvement in politics and business . Moreover , feminism has historically been about challenging the status quo and advocating for women's agency , regardless of political affiliation .

So if a conservative woman identifies with the goals of feminism and seeks to empower women within her framework , she is absolutely a feminist . The movement thrives on diversity of thought . Diversity of thought Not that doesn't mean just because it says diversity , that does not mean that a man can invade our spaces . No , that's the opposite .

Okay , the movement thrives on diversity of thought , which ultimately strengthens the fight for equality . And what is equality ? A lot of people with this , this equality thing , has gotten all out of proportion as well . I'm using the word okay . Okay , we're . You know what . I'm going to save this for the next . I've gone too long .

I'm going to save this next part for tomorrow and we're going to go there tomorrow about what is equality and gender and sex and all of that . We're going to go there tomorrow because I spent too long on this already . All right , got to go . Thanks for listening . Love y'all . Bye .
