The Loud Silence of Feminists -- Why have mainstream feminists not come to the defense of Michelle Obama?

Also, as it seems some people weren't aware, Fox News called her Obama's "baby mama". If you click the link, you will find interesting comments by fellow Americans, including this gem:

Are you people serious. I think they just said it because Obama and Mama rhyme.

The folks who call this racist are probably racist themselves and are just projecting what the
[sic] really think deep down inside.

By the way - I'm curious regarding your seeping hostility. I have made no judgmental comments regarding the Obama's, Communism, feminism, or you.

You have made opinionated statements as though they were established facts.

I have my guard up because two people have asked you to supply evidence to your statements (myself and [livejournal.com profile] eleri) and you have refused to comply.

If you want to have a nice debate, substantiate your opinions. If you want to argue just to argue, you might want to post your ideas in your own journal.

I have long spoken about feminism in my journal for years. You can look at all of the ones I have so marked by clicking the tag above. My ideas about feminism have evolved as I have, over the years, and it is a continuing conversation.

You have your guard up because you are a "feminist." I don't "comply" with "feminists."

What you have going is not a conversation. It is a one-way street to nowhere.

Peace. Out.
