    When women see the killing of their child as the only option, they've been failed by their family and society. Women deserve more, yet all they end up asking for today is the right to kill the child. This is the brainwashing of the patriarchy.

        Is this about abortion or murder?

        Ah. The pro-euthanasia crowed did talk about legalizing post-birth abortions. (Which I find mind-boggling, I must say.)

        That doesn't relate to anything. You're not making any sense. They weren't welcoming to the radfem you're talking to or to me, a liberal non-feminist. They're not 'the patriarchy' tho.

        She was speaking of the 'brainwashing' of women. I was giving a further example of how the patriarchy has brainwashed many women, though not in the subject of imposed gender norms.

        Are women so weak that they get so easily brainwashed? Some women are pro-life, some are pro-choice. I think they should both be welcome at women's marches because they are women, right? Women don't need to all think the same. But what does the patriarchy have to do with this?

        Women aren't weak by any means! It's taken decades for women to somehow decide that a tool for male freedom from consequence/responsibility is a means of female empowerment. That we can't be *women*, and all that entails, but must be more like *men* in order to have power.

        There's a simple way to tell if a women is brainwashed: she owns more than two pairs of shoes.

        I don't agree with the rhetorical spin, but it is easy to see where she's coming from and the line of reasoning. And it is the intolerance of our opposing views that leads to division. Fighting against abortion is as defensible as fighting for it.
