So much for Female empathy

This interview with justice Ginsburg is perhaps one of the most telling I have read showing pro-female bias and a lack of anything even approaching empathy or concern for male views or emotions. OK there is one comment that has some color of empathy for males in it listed below.
A couple of times justice Ginsburg even mentions women's feelings about some cases. One that stands out is a comment on the recent strip search case about girls and boys feeling different about it (also quoted below).
Other quotes of note were:
Q: Do you have a sense of what that would be like to actually work on and how it would be different? (Asking about a court with 5, 6 or 7 female justices)

JUSTICE GINSBURG: The work would not be any easier. Some of the amenities might improve.
Ya I bet they would improve, the way women in power like to pamper themselves.
Q: Do you think that some of the discrimination cases might turn out differently?
JUSTICE GINSBURG: I think for the most part, yes. I would suspect that, because the women will relate to their own experiences.
May I please never live to see that day.
JUSTICE GINSBURG: I think it makes people stop and think, Maybe a 13-year-old girl is different from a 13-year-old boy in terms of how humiliating it is to be seen undressed. I think many of [the male justices] first thought of their own reaction. It came out in various questions. You change your clothes in the gym, what’s the big deal?
Hmmmm even if the search is done with female only officials? Interesting how would that be different than a boy being strip searched? I see no reason why it should under the feminist doctrine of nurture over nature.
They were held back by a way of looking at the world in which a man who wasn’t married simply was not responsible. There must have been so many repetitions of Madame Butterfly in World War II. And for Justice Stevens [who voted with the majority], that was part of his experience. I think that’s going to be over in the next generation, these kinds of rulings.
The one thing she said that I can actually agree with and applaud her for.
Q: The case ties together themes of women’s equality and reproductive freedom. The court split those themes apart in Roe v. Wade. Do you see, as part of a future feminist legal wish list, repositioning Roe so that the right to abortion is rooted in the constitutional promise of sex equality?
JUSTICE GINSBURG: Oh, yes. I think it will be.
All I can say is EEEEEEEEP!
Q: When you say that reproductive rights need to be straightened out, what do you mean?
JUSTICE GINSBURG: The basic thing is that the government has no business making that choice for a woman.
But By God every woman shall make this choice for a man, his opinion has NO weight.
JUSTICE GINSBURG: The poor little woman, to regret the choice that she made. Unfortunately there is something of that in Roe. It’s not about the women alone. It’s the women in consultation with her doctor. So the view you get is the tall doctor and the little woman who needs him.
But again the MAN has no place here....
Q: In the 1980s, you wrote about how while the sphere for women has widened to include more work, men haven’t taken on as much domestic responsibility. Do you think that things are beginning to change?

JUSTICE GINSBURG: That’s going to take time, changing that kind of culture. But looking at my own family, my daughter Jane teaches at Columbia, she travels all over the world, and she has the most outstanding supportive husband who certainly carries his fair share of the load. Although their division of labor is different than mine and my husband’s, because my daughter is a super cook
I guess when it might be taken as something positive about men justice Ginsburg's "personal expierences" have no weight. Despite her daughters marriage to a kitchen bitch men in general are still pigs to her eyes and across the country don't do any domestic work.
The one good thing about the interview in my opinion is that justice Ginsburg is 72 years old. I just hope she waits till 2013 to retire though or we will just get more of the same from our mangina President Obama.

  1. You nailed this one. These women are completely insane. Oddly enough strip searches and homosexual nudity are much rougher on men than women. Most women have no problem getting naked together, sleeping in the same bed (I don't mean sexually), or even "experimenting" with lesbian sexuality. Most men are completely opposed to it. Strip searching is much harder on men, then it is on women. Men are just much less likely to whine about it.
