Attention ladies, A new RP site dedicated to ladies needs your content

[RP08]

Why have a site only for women? Doesn't that kind of go against Dr. Paul's philosophy of treating people as individuals? Anyhow, what can be discussed? "I love Ron Paul so much, I don't get mad at him even when I'm having my period!"

Wow... brutal.

Kinda' like a "bikers for Ron Paul" forum that stands on "I like Ron Paul as long as I don't have a broken chain or need an oil change."?

LOL

It's all in good fun.

You're right. Women house all their brains in their head, as opposed to men having 90% of theirs positioned between their legs. Is that what you're talking about?



Oh, so men don't need an "in depth" explanation about the Dept. of Education, right? Is that what you're saying? Right!



Actually, women need the facts, the very same way that men do. But note that women have a highly attuned bullshit detector in constant operation. You might say that this detector has been genetically-honed throughout history, as a means of weeding out the less desirable in the opposite sex.
Cheers.

I FRIGGIN LOVE YOU

in the platonic sense of course

 

[RP08]

We've gotten some great input already. Please keep it flowing. This can turn out to be a fun new site.

No offense, but I find this odd. I am a woman, yet I dislike "woman-centered" issues...how does my interest in Ron Paul differ from any man's interest? In fact, the whole premise goes against Ron Paul's philosophy of not splitting people into groups.

This is not a harsh criticism of your wife's project. I am just questioning the purpose behind it. I honestly do not get it.

In my mind, all the issues are the same for man or woman: liberty, peace, individual rights.

Hi! I am so glad you asked this question- and, I agree with you. The intent of creating this site is not to separate us out or divide us from men but rather to intensify the attention on Dr. Paul's campaign from yet another facet of society...

Personally, I know a few women who seem to only be repeating the opinions voiced by the men in their lives, and while they may be the minority, it makes me very sad and I aim to correct this. This is all that the site is about. I don’t believe in parroting one another’s opinions, but rather a freethinking society where we can all ponder issues and make decisions for ourselves; further UNITING the global Ron Paul community.

The site is not just for women, although I intend some of the discussions to be worded or geared in this direction- merely for the sake of those who are too shy or unknowledgeable to jump into other communities. There are still many women in America who are unsure of their political footing outside of what their fathers/brothers/husbands/sons/etc. tell them. It will not be a female-only site by any means, but rather women stating out loud that they stand up for Ron Paul because of their own thoughts/beliefs/understandings, hence joining the march onward with all of the rest of us.

I don't expect anyone to agree with me or think it a "noble cause" by any means (lol!), but I would like a site for myself and other women to be able to gather and speak amongst ourselves on the issues, reaffirming our beliefs, and to further unite the campaign efforts..

I know (and fully expect) there will be jokes about lesbianism, feminism, separatism, collectivism, dating, etc. but I am prepared to accept these as I believe there is potentially a great payoff for women who should choose to participate.

Thank you so much for asking! Best wishes and RON PAUL 2008!!!!

LMAO, seriously...

Why have a site only for women? Doesn't that kind of go against Dr. Paul's philosophy of treating people as individuals? Anyhow, what can be discussed? "I love Ron Paul so much, I don't get mad at him even when I'm having my period!"

"Oooh, look at me- I'm a man, I don't have a period, I don't understand it- I find myself wanting women but I find myself needlessly mocking them when I don't understand WTF they're talking about... oh, and being a man I am an individual, but women are not if they call themselves “women”" Hahahaha, only joking. Dude, seriously? Are you serious? Really? Nice. What level of education are you sporting there buckaroo?

Dude, honestly, I think there are a few conversations even you would rather not be a part of… but, thanks for the laughs- seriously, if I had a website devoted to men who never lifted a finger to write research papers on illegal phone tapping or bothered to propose solutions to the illegal immigration issues to their local representatives, it would be emptier than your lame @55 post quoted above.

ANYWAY I digress... we all know men & women's brain chemistry, biology, and general makeup is different. We know our biological functions are different. What makes you think that women are satisfied discussing who is having their period rather than attacking the issues of civil liberties that Dr. Paul so passionately defends? May I remind you that you are not likely to be soon faced with the idea of getting an abortion (or at least I hope not, yikes!), that women are truly concerned about issues like marriage and their sons getting shipped off to die in illegal wars.

Perhaps (now just stay with me for a second & imagine this…) there was a place where say, mothers or war widows (like my pregnant friend who recently lost her husband in a war she views as pointless), could gather & speak about their sons and husbands getting shipped off to Iraq and provide a supportive social network for each other. Are you going to provide that? Are you going to unite us all in our individual struggles in life through your compassion and concern (albeit lack of life experience?). No? OK, have a nice day.

We are all individual in our own experiences and fights, but united we will form a community no one can stand against- it’s called HUMANITY. When 1 stands, they are easily knocked down- when many stand uniquely as 1 they cannot be defeated. RON PAUL 20008!!!

Not just yet... very soon though. A skeleton is being developed right now. More content is needed to begin publishing. Many individual contributors (you too?) are already starting to send good stuff to go through.

Cheers

Are there actual women on this thread or is it a bunch of blokes during rutting season?

Correct. It will be published to the web after first having some content.

 

[ckhagen]

Maybe this is relevant, maybe not, but I plan on emailing the campaign because I would like to know Dr. Paul's stances on the miserable state of womens obstetric care in the country, the illegalization of midwives, chronic violation of women's rights in childbirth, coersion into unnecessary interventions/testing/drugs, the resulting skyrocketing cesarean rates, and residual VBAC bans. I know, that's a lot, but it's a serious issue that's rising to the forefront and I've been personally entrenched in attempting to start the ball rolling on toppling the huge stronghold on personal liberties that this current structure has.

!! That's completely relevent and I strongly urge you to (also) bring your thoughts and knowledge of these hardly-known issues to the attention of L4RP <a T> Ladies4RonPaul.com (email address obviously needs manual correction in your email application), and continue updating the important information as it becomes available to you. Important topics, indeed.

 

[Matt Collins]

I thought it was relevant to the subject at hand....

 

[RP08]

Is the new cervical-cancer "vaccine" (now legally mandated many places) for young women something to consider as well?

 

[ladyliberty]

I think any kind of federally mandated vaccine is wrong. Many people home school their children because of this issue alone. Speaking as the mother of a child with autism - which dramatically INCREASED - when immunization shots became mandatory, I am against forced immunization of any type. Voluntary yes, forced no. Hillary's healthcare system would have us all inoculated against every disease known to man with little regard to the unintended consequences that may result from this.

A woman's website ought to have lots of graphics showing Ron Paul with children - he does not look like an angry old man (that the media try to portray him as) but a wise old grandpa that the children truly adore - his face litterally lights up when he is around children!
