Feminist Propaganda In College Text Book - Wednesday, January 25, 2012

          By: Phyllis Schlafly eagleforum.org
          A woman walked into my office recently and handed me the textbook her daughter was assigned for her "Women and Gender Studies" Course at the University of Missouri/St. Louis. I was shocked at this textbook and I'm going to share it with you. The title is Women's Voices, Feminist Visions by Susan M. Shaw and Janet Lee. This textbook is a collection of propaganda essays to sell students on radical feminism.
          One article pretends to describe a typical woman's life in the 1970s, which supposedly included unacceptable horrors of inequality. The student is supposed to learn that feminism saved women from oppression by the patriarchy. Other articles teach that being male is a privileged status, just like being white or heterosexual.
          The authors teach that the roles of male and female are merely learned behaviors and you can change to the other gender if you want to. Bisexuality and trans-sexuality are presented as normal. The textbook includes personal stories of adults who changed their gender. The book explains that heterosexuality exists only because of socially imposed stereotypes and homophobia, and has noting to do with nature or morality. Students are encouraged to organize a National Coming Out Day on their campus.
          A couple of articles in this textbook discuss that it is common for women to be bisexual. Of course, the book endorses abortion. The traditional model of the family is presented as only one of many forms of family. The book teaches that married women should be liberated from marriage and turn their children over to the state to be raised.
          This college textbook has a radical feminist political agenda: anti-marriage, anti-homemaker, pro-abortion, and pro-lesbian. I advise college students not to waste their tuition dollars taking women's studies courses.
