Kevin Craig favors maximizing liberty, and minimizing the coercive power of government.
The Feminist Majority Foundation defines "feminism" as:
Feminism n. the policy, practice or advocacy of political, economic, and social equality for women.
Why is this so controversial? Who opposes this? It sounds innocent enough. Reading further:
The Feminist Majority Foundation (FMF), which was founded in 1987, is a cutting edge organization dedicated to women's equality, reproductive health, and non-violence. |
"Reproductive health" is a code-word for abortion, including the killing of unborn women. This is not "non-violence."
There is no greater force for violence in the world than the socialist State, but as we will see, "feminists" support giving more power to the State. |
The principles of the Feminist Majority and Feminist Majority Foundation are the following :
• FMF promotes equality between women and men and girls and boys, and supports constitutional and statutory measures to gain full equality locally, statewide, nationally, and globally. |
What does this mean? Men and girls are to be "equal?" Men and boys are to be "equal?" |
• FMF supports safe, legal and accessible abortion, contraception, and family planning, including Medicaid funding and access for minors. |
"Medicaid funding" means jack-booted thugs confiscate money by force from those who oppose abortion and transfer it to those who favor it. This is not "non-violence." |
• FMF is dedicated to achieving civil right [sic] for all people, including affirmative action programs for women and people of color. |
This means that if a businesswoman has not hired "enough" non-white people, she will have her property confiscated by force, be imprisoned, or have her right to do business terminated. This is not "non-violence." |
• The FMF supports lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender rights. |
|
• FMF does not permit discrimination on the basis of sex, race, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, religion, ethnicity, age, marital status, national origin, or disability. |
|
• FMF promotes non-violence and works to eliminate violence against women. |
Except violence toward millions of unborn women and women who oppose lesbianism, "feminism" and socialism. |
• The FMF encourages programs directed at the preservation of the environment, clean air and water, the elimination of smog, toxic and hazardous waste, chemical and nuclear weaponry. |
This is dangerously vague. Adolph Hitler encouraged programs directed at the preservation of the environment. Feminist Environmentalism is violent and toxic. |
• The FMF supports workers' collective bargaining, pay equity, and the end of sweatshops. |
Sweatshops: Look for the INS Label |

All in all, this "feminist" program sounds violent and a threat to liberty. |
