If for nothing else, at least Conservapedia is good for a laugh. Below, one of Conservapedia’s thoughtpolice child indoctrinators administrators engages in a discourse on feminism. Read, and be appalled.
The woman who pioneered women wearing pants was the actress Katharine Hepburn. She became rich and famous but never experienced a happy marriage and never knew the joy of having children. Her philosophy of life of being unfeminine resulted in her not fulfilling her purpose of life. We reap what we sow. There are consequences for actions. Women wearing pants is cross-dressing. It should be looked down on as much as men wearing dresses. The social experiment of feminism to destroy any sense of difference between male and female in the twentieth century has resulted in women wearing military camouflage fatigue pants and boots. The Bible says cross-dressing is an “abomination of God.”
*VOMIT* While the author professes to quote some “John Quinn,” I can’t for the life of me find the alleged original writer on a Google search. Let this be a reminder to us all that fundamentalist Christianity is out to return American women to the bad old pre-suffrage days.
That reminds me. One of the charges against Joan of Arc was that she wore men’s clothing.
(That’s right, I linked to Encyclopedia Britannica, not Wikipedia. Take that populists.)

Posted by autofire372 | June 22, 2008, 12:03 pmDid the article say anything about taking away women’s suffrage? Women’s wearing pants became popular and acceptable well after they got the vote. (The Dick Van Dyke Show producers had to break down how many scenes in each episode would feature Mary Tyler Moore in pants versus skirts.) You could return America to a post-suffrage, pre-pants time.
Anyway, I think the author probably saw an alluring picture of a woman in a men’s dress shirt and, rather than just enjoy how awesome that looks, got all scared that that made him gay.

Collin is a smart man with good taste.
