Full Frontal Foreign Women: A Young Man’s Guide to Why American White Middle Class Feminism is Irrelevant
I am a young American man who made his mint in NYC and then moved to Central America 3 years ago. In the world outside of her failing feminist experiment, here are some facts for Valenti to brood over:
American women have a bad publicity problem, and rightly so.
Feminism does not matter, modern or otherwise. No need to define, redefine, remake, figure out, wonder about, or consider at all.
Whatever momentum your “movement” has, it comes to a screeching halt at the Rio Grande.
Folks around here never did see feminism as a threat or as powerful but merely as an annoyance while living in the U.S. and now, well, its just a source of humor. Plus you never have to concern yourselves with mens’ rights activists in this brave new world; they simply don’t exist…imagine that.
Yep, your speeches, books, articles only apply to a few middle class elitists; a mere plop in the bucket relative to the women on the entire planet. Here in the good ol’ third world I and my fellow Americans (there are many here now, some with PFSD) are immersed in bevies of femininity and we do not respect or acknowledge or abide by the following:
Work life balance
Repro rights
Diversity
IMBRA
Marriage Broker Regulation Act
Inclusion
Stay at home moms
Body image
Political correctness
Title IX
Take your daughters to work
Affirmative action
Tahirih Justice Center
Maternity leave
Cultural Marxism
Ms Foundation
Third party childcare
Paternity leave
Linda Hirshman
Male bashing
Opt out myth
Having it all
Bonnie Erbe
Pay equity
Gloria Steinem
Fish riding bicycles
National Organization for Women
Takes a village
Mommy track
Biological clock
Gender
Wage gap
Gender role
Career vs family
Cultural Marxism (repeated)
Political correctness (repeated)
…and blah blah, ecchh
Because WE DON’T HAVE TO!!

He’s a Stud, She’s a Slut, and 49 Other Double Standards Every Woman Should Know, by Jessica Valenti.
| By | holy smack-down. “Husband of 1, dad of 2 teac… |
I just read the first few pages and my question is this: what’s wrong with keeping and valuing our virginity? This practice was done for centuries and now all of a sudden, it’s taboo, or unacceptable for a young woman to NOT sleep with anyone.
I have 2 children, a daughter-4, and a son-2. I will be taking my children to purity balls (as mentioned) and integrity balls. The author mentioned the double standard of having young girls pure an men go learn integrity. This is like feeding a cat dog food- you give what is proper and understandable for the child. If my son gets the “integrity” concept over “purity” why wouldn’t I teach him that?
The reading does have a certain “snappiness” and it is mildly captivating, I just find it very one-sided and full of the author’s opinion, and this was in the first few pages. Personally, I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone trying to have or teach morals. This book isn’t about the double standard of being called a slut, it’s about freedom to do what you want with no repercussion, and that’s not real.

(Note: if the above commenter was upset by He’s a Stud, She’s a Slut, he’s really going to love Jessica’s newest book: The Purity Myth: How America’s Obsession with Virginity Is Hurting Young Women. Just sayin’.)
