My (only) problem with Gloria Allred

In my opinion...

She makes the women she represents look incredibly dumb.

In other words...

"I'm a woman. I'm weak and feeble. I'm too stupid to make grown up adult decisions. I have a vagina. I'm a victim."

I used to hang out with this one woman until I realized she was too stupid to admit knowing. We'd go to clubs, check out bands, she used to wear little mini skirts, high heels, sometimes no panties... and then complain when men hit on her. 

"I'm not a whore!" 

Really? You're dressed like one. 

"I'm not a piece of meat!"

Then maybe you should wear skirts that cover your vagina. And wear panties. 

Common sense. Prevention. Responsibility.

Women have fought and died so that we (ladies) today can enjoy our liberties. I don't excuse women who fail to take responsibility for their own actions. Stop excusing them.

You always hear how the girlfriend or wife wants to see her boyfriend or husband "take responsibility for HIS actions" but what about her (in)action? Or is she just too dumb to have any responsibility? 

"I'm sorry your honor, I'm an idiot. I have a vagina."

And that's how Gloria Allred, makes her female clients look, like stupid feeble useless cunts. Too dumb to be held responsible for their own decisions. To weak and feeble to use better judgement. 

"I started dating this guy, but lately he's rude, he's vulgar, he's insensitive, he drinks too much, he's controlling, he gets calls from other women in the middle of the night, he's abusive..."

So you're going to stop dating him, right?

"No. I love him. I can change him."

And the next thing you know she's hired  Gloria Allred to be her attorney in a semi high profile spousal abuse/divorce/assault case. 

Regardless if it's about publicity and/or money for both Allred and her female clientele, in front of the camera, in the headlines, these women she represents just look (amazingly) stupid. 

Gloria Allred, gives these women Twinkie Defenses, and that's what bothers me about her. She's not a feminist. She's an enabler of stupidity. 

Allred sued the Boy Scouts on behalf of a little girl who wanted to be a Boy Scout. They have Boy Scouts, for girls. They're called Girl Scouts. And if there isn't a Girl Scout, chapter near by, than that girl has potential to be, what I call, independent and interesting. Let's see, do I want to be independent and interesting, or do I want to be a Boy Scout? I think I'd rather be... 

Independent. Do my own thing. Live my own life. Earn my own money. Not rely on men for everything. 

"Well, ladies and gentlemen of the press, when I was a little girl, I wanted to be a Girl Scout, but there wasn't a Girl Scout, chapter in the area where I lived, and I wasn't allowed to join the Boy Scouts, I'm not a boy, so I started reading books about science, and then I started attending science fairs... And while earning my science degree I met a med student... And together we cured cancer."

Why was suing the Boy Scouts, better than that scenario?

(AWED, Attention Whore Ego Disorder?)

Why can't we just let little girls learn disappointment, and through minor disenchantment find alternative routes to happiness?

Happiness. Like the kind faced little old man in the 43 degree LA winter morning, smiling at the sun, happy as can be, standing on the corner waiting for his Mr Flopsy to make dukies.

Christ, lady. Stop suing the Boy Scouts. I'm going to need those kids to help me cross the street one day!
