The grotesque and destructive Betty Friedan. There are some others, too, like Andrea Dworkin.
Fortunately, they're both dead. Unfortunately, they weren't snuffed before birth.
I am always amused when someone who is old is called ugly. Old is old and has it's own beauty and can't be contrasted with that of those who for the moment are young.
Besides, often the most attractive people have quite allot of nasty baggage that go with them. She and Helen Thomas look quite alright for their age.
And I don't give a hoot what religion this woman is either, that is her business.
Certainly one of the best known womanoids was Betty Friedan. Betty was as Communist as you can get with or without a Party card. She spent a few weeks at the Highlander Folk School, a revolutionary facility frequented by Party dignitaries like Abner W. Berry of the Central Committee of the Communist Party.
"The most profound thing that happened to Betty at Smith was her radicalization. She became committed to Marxist philosophy . . . ." So says Judith Hennessee, her biographer, in Betty Friedan: Her Life (Harmondsworth: Penguin, 1999, p. 26). She contributed to the Daily Worker, the official newspaper of the Communist Party. At Berkeley, Betty consorted with Communist Party members like physicist David Bohm. Indeed, one of her lovers was J. Robert Oppenheimer, a regular contributor to the Communist Party who belonged to many Red outfits.
For years, Betty Friedan was a staff reporter for UE News, published by the United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America, a Communist union. In 1939, Stalin and Hitler became allies and many Party members quit in disgust. Not Betty. So Communist was she that she stayed with Stalin, Hitler’s ally. Need I add that the Prostitute National Press reported none of this? They presented her as a frustrated housewife suffering the feminine mystique, while she wrote her book in a mansion on the Hudson.
When seconds count, the police are only minutes away.
