Ubiquitous Man Hating

Jersey City sucks, I went to college there and used to work as a medical assistant at a neurologist there, the area was full of crackheads I like Hoboken, though, I go there all the time and I keep Tunes in business

Welcome to the site ladyfiaran! Funny that you mention being a yankees fan, as I always notice lots of women at big sporting events. It's funny that U.S. colleges each spend several million dollars a year on women's sports that very few people except the family of the athletes show up to, and have 7 times fewer prospects trying to earn the same amount of scholarships that men get. Despite all the effort on the part of feminists, both men and women, they get the rules changed but they make someone else pay for it and won't even show up to the games. What do you think about this?

Well, thanks for the welcome, dudes. I think its a good idea that girls play sports, well, obviously not football or anything really violent. It's certainly better than sex or partying. But then again, women's sports should stand on their own, none of the Title IX stuff where good men's sports get the ax just so women's sports get more funding. While I'm not a fan of the WNBA or basketball in general, it can't be worst than the men's game. But then again, you have ugly fat sows like Debbie Schlussel who claim that all women athletes are lesbians and they shouldn't play sports at all, she's an ugly Jewish neocon who resembled Jabba the Hut in a blond wig and thinks Israel is perfect. Read at your own risk: http://www.debbieschlussel.com/
PS- that pic of hers is photoshopped, this is what she really looks like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IX7iJiJb360
She's right about Obama and the Muslims, but she's a Jewish supremacist who wouldn't like us much either, we're "Nazis" to her

PPS- sorry if the links don't work, I'm still getting used to this site

Ladyfiaran, welcome to Caste Football ma'am.

Guys this is the modern world. You might get a little depressed watching this.

Feminism was fully endorsed & underwritten by the PTB/Globalist Elite & their juden allies. It's all about demonizing & de-stablizing men...especially White, Christian men. The goal is tearing down the fiber of American & European tradition, culture & morals.

Yes, and it's been incredibly effective at achieving those goals. The good news is that men are starting to wise up and see what's going on. Men are rational and logical and can figure things out for themselves once they get going in the right direction, i.e., once the blinders are taken off.

As with all the other poisons of Cultural Marxism, the revolutionaries have gone way too far (because moderation is not part of their parasitic and destructive make-up), and what's left of Productive America is starting to push back. It's just a matter of starving the beast; there's a tipping point when the parasites at the top and bottom reach a certain number that can no longer be sustained by what's left of the middle class. We're not far from that now.

The "marriage strike" and other individual, common sense responses will hurry along the end of the current Cultural Marxist dictatorship and allow the rebuilding of Western civilization in a new and improved form --provided of course that the PTB don't launch WWIII.

Here's another thought-provoking article from The Spearhead. Go to the link to read the comments afterward, which are also good.

Stop Looking For a Wife: You Won't Find One

As I look back on my life, I realize that one of the biggest misconceptions I had when I was younger was that wives actually existed. Like many men, I learned the hard way that they do not, and now I realize I'd simply been scammed. Far too many men have fallen victim to this con, and it's about time that we put some effort into eliminating it.



First, what is a wife? As many of us see it, a wife is a female who partners with a man and provides intimacy and support, and who contributes to the well-being of a family. Above all else, she is devoted to the family, and will sacrifice time, effort and even desire to hold it together. In short, she is the complementary image of a husband, with whom she cooperates in furtherance of this family ideal.


Such a naïve, flawed view of contemporary women came from a general lack of understanding about what they are, and ultimately from a projection of our own masculine attitudes about what is good and desirable in this world. This is why so many of us, as young men, had such a difficult time understanding why weddings are so important to women; to us the wedding was simply the gateway to this idealized world of the family â€" it was just a first step, a beginning.


For women, a wedding is not a beginning, but an end. It is a culmination of years of longing and preparation to be a bride, and marks a triumph and achievement. To understand this from a masculine perspective, think of the athlete who spends years training, dreaming and striving for victory. After all those years of struggle and discipline, practice and sweat, he finally gets the chance to compete in a stadium full of spectators. If he is the victor, he stands on the podium in front of the crowd, and is given his medal to his national anthem. This is a very emotional experience for many athletes, and a great joy. The bride standing at the altar is experiencing the same thing. It is her triumph â€" her wreath of laurels.


Little breeds a sense of entitlement more than victory, so marriage is tainted from the beginning by this triumphal celebration of the bride. Therefore, Western women go into marriage not as a wife, but as a conqueror. After that, to ask her to submit to â€" or even cooperate with â€" her husband would be akin to asking the triumphant athlete to resign himself to working the same dull, boring jobs his friends who never made the cut had to settle for. Some athletes may have the humility and grace to accept such a life without regret and bitterness, but obviously many will not.


But it doesn't start there. Wives are made, not born. Just as a wild mustang colt must be broken to the saddle, so must a woman be broken to wifely duties from childhood. And how is the woman-child made into a wife? Traditionally, methods varied by class, but what they all had in common was that she was put to work or kept very busy from a young age. A farmer's daughter would milk the cows, help her mother in the kitchen, sweep, sew, mend and tend the fire. Often, she would look after her younger siblings as well. Both her mother and father would hold her to her duties and warn her against vanity and daydreaming.


One might think that the daughters of the wealthy were spared such a regimen, but they had other matters to attend to. Thomas Jefferson, for example, outlined a very specific (and very busy) program for his 11-year-old daughter:
<BLOCKQUOTE>


With respect to the distribution of your time, the following is what I should approve:
From 8. to 10. o'clock practise music.
From 10. to 1. dance one day and draw another.
From 1. to 2. draw on the day you dance, and write a letter next day.
From 3. to 4. read French.
From 4. to 5. exercise yourself in music.
From 5. till bedtime, read English, write, &amp;c. </BLOCKQUOTE>


Not only did he make sure to occupy her time as fully as possible, he demanded regular updates as well:
<BLOCKQUOTE>


I expect you will write me by every post. Inform me what books you read, what tunes you learn, and inclose me your best copy of every lesson in drawing. Write also one letter a week either to your Aunt Eppes, your Aunt Skipworth, your Aunt Carr, or the little lady from whom I now enclose a letter. . . . Take care that you never spell a word wrong. Always before you write a word, consider how it is spelt, and, if you do not remember it, turn to a dictionary. It produces great praise to a lady to spell well"¦</BLOCKQUOTE>


In addition to all these duties, he inculcated a sense of propriety, or, one might even say, shame:
<BLOCKQUOTE>


A lady who has been seen as a sloven or slut in the morning will never efface the impression she has made, with all dress and pageantry she can afterwards involve herself in"¦


I do not wish you to be gayly clothed at this time of your life, but that what you wear should be fine of its kind; but above all things, and all times let your clothes be clean, whole, and properly put on"¦Nothing is so disgusting to our sex as a want of cleanliness and delicacy in yours.</BLOCKQUOTE>


Looks pretty harsh, doesn't it? In fact, these letters have been taken as proof of Jefferson's misogyny, but it may simply be that Jefferson, a very prolific letter writer, was raising his daughters according to norms of the time. Rather than being exceptionally strict, I suspect he was simply exceptionally prolific in his written correspondence, and when modern women read the reality of the time they are horrified because they can't possibly imagine what hell it must have been to be female before being spoiled became a "right."Â


It wasn't any better for contemporaneous Virginian men, who were subjected to a great deal more physical brutality than women, and expected to sacrifice their very lives on principles of honor. Minor infractions such as soldiers filching an extra few drams of whiskey were punishable by brutal lashings, and insults often occasioned fatal duels. They were different times â€" times most of us are happy to leave in the past.


Perhaps women raised before the 1950s â€" women whose parents would have been strongly affected by Depression-era values â€" were still raised to be wives, but after postwar prosperity took hold the inclination waned. It was seen as unnecessary cruelty to treat girls in that manner, and while boys, whose fathers were often psychologically (and sometimes physically) scarred war veterans, still took a drubbing for some time, the natural human tendency to indulge children, and girls in particular, took hold. By the 1970s, only a few fundamentalist Christians and Orthodox Jews were still raising their daughters to be proper wives, but these women are generally off-limits for your typical secular or lightly religious Westerner. That may be for the best, because I doubt your typical Western man would know how to handle a wife any better than he knows how to ride a horse.


However, despite the dramatic changes in society, the idea of the "wife"Â still persists. Although we know that the cowboy on horseback is largely a thing of the past, most of his duties replaced by trucks, feed lots and barbed wire, we still persist in this notion that there is such a thing as a wife, that they are all around us, and that they can be found easily, attracted by shining amulets of crystalline carbon, whereupon they begin magically cleaning house, preparing meals and producing children.


If someone were to tell young men that with a little pixie dust they could fly like Tinkerbell, they could hardly be making a more absurd statement than in telling them that a contemporary Western woman will, upon marriage, become a helpful, cooperative and cheerful wife, but I suppose hope springs eternal.


One could say that part of the blame lies with the amulet and dream dealers â€" the media and corporations who profit from the marriage industry â€" but that would be to miss the big picture; these people are simply taking advantage of a demand, like all businessmen. In fact, what they sell tends to reflect rather than influence society. Take two Disney movies for example: Snow White and Cinderella.


With a couple of small children under my wing, I've had a lot of time to catch up on old Disney movies, and they speak volumes about the times they were produced.


Snow White was released in 1937, during the Great Depression. She is a modest, but cheerful young beauty who hides when she first sees the prince. Menaced and nearly assassinated on the orders of her wicked queen stepmother, a powerful, aggressive seductress, witch and prototypical feminist who hates Snow White for her kind, tender ways and youthful beauty, she flees into the forest, where she finds the hard-working dwarves, who are bachelor miners. Needing some protection she endears herself to the little men by cheerfully cleaning, cooking, baking pies, singing, dancing, etc. Finally, she wins over even Grumpy Dwarf, the Ur MGTOW who has little use for women. Much adventure ensues, in which she is poisoned by the feminist queen, who is subsequently chased to her doom by the furious dwarves. Sad to lose their pretty little helpmeet, the dwarves construct a glass coffin so that her beauty will not be hidden, and her prince finally finds her and awakens her from her slumber with a kiss, upon which they leave to presumably go on to become husband and wife. Note that there is no wedding in the movie.


Snow White, a girl who cheerfully cooks and cleans for short, stout and bald working men and brings some feminine grace and genuine kindness into the mix as well is an example of the old ideal wife. Not every man would get a Snow White, but he could at least expect that women aspired to be somewhat like her as wives and, most importantly, were expected to be so.


Just 13 years later, after the war that changed everything, Disney released another fairytale movie: Cinderella. Like Snow White, Cinderella was the victim of a cruel stepmother who forced her to work as a maid, but her attitude shows a marked difference. Not only does she bitch and moan about housework, she even indulges the household pests, bringing them food and protecting them from the cat.


The plot in Cinderella revolves around a royal ball in which the prince must choose a wife at the insistence of his father. The ball therefore represents female competition along the lines of the modern mating ritual, where females deck themselves out in all manner of finery and compete for the alpha male's attention. Again, here is another departure from Snow White. Rather than the modest, bashful young princess waiting for a prince to sweep her away, we have a horde of women descending on a giant dance floor competing for the prize, a desirable male who is reluctant to commit. It's a scene one can see today in clubs in big cities.


After a catfight and some subsequent hocus pocus, Cinderella emerges victorious in the contest to win the prince's affection, and the king tracks her down by means of one of the high-heeled shoes she left behind. A fabulous wedding in a palace ensues, and the movie is over.


Cinderella is the template upon which today's girls structure their dreams. Their overriding goal is to win their reluctant prince and stand victorious over the other women at the altar. That's it. Once it's over and they are married, it's all a big letdown. The man is no longer a groom and princely, there are screaming kids and filthy clothes and dishes, no more people are honoring her and the gown is in a box. Drudgery was never part of the bargain, and who the hell is this schlub sitting on the couch watching football to expect a princess to fix him dinner?


So there we have it: there are no more wives, only brides; no more marriages, only weddings. And this change in our society happened over half a century ago.


It's time we took the concepts of the wife and marriage put them in a museum. Some will say that you can keep your wife and marriage if you run Game on your wife, but let's be honest here: if you have to Game her to keep her she ain't your wife â€" she's your girlfriend at best â€" and you aren't married in the real sense of the word, but shacking up.


As for the Christian preachers out there who say that all you have to do to obtain and keep a wife is provide and be godly, they are liars and fools who pervert the message of their professed religion. It is akin to a Christian saying that salvation can come from good works alone, i.e. Heresy. Their message to young men is dangerous and reprehensible, as young Christian men are no better protected than anyone else, and actually serves as justification for women looking for a convenient excuse to annihilate a family.


So, to the young men out there, I'll say this loud and clear:


Wives and marriages are like unicorns and leprechauns. If you want to grow up and get on with your life you'd best quit looking for them. You might find a woman, maybe even a decent one, but you'll no more find a wife than I'll catch a mermaid in my crab pot.


Expecting the impossible is always a recipe for disaster, so I sincerely hope that young men take this lesson to heart.
http://www.the-spearhead.com/2010/10/08/stop-looking-for-a-wife-you-wont-find-one/

I respect the rights of women, but this is ridiculous. This must be the price men get for allowing the empowerment of women. There has to be a balance between genders (if there is still any). As much respect I have for women expanding into new horizons (traditionally male roles), they still need to accept their more traditional roles (housewives, raising children). If they denounce such roles, then we crumble not only as a society, but as a civilization.

I think the rise of radical feminism got it's inspiration from ants and bees. In the world of ants and bees, females are in charge, males are short-lived drones whose only role is to give the queen a life-time supply of sperms for her eggs. Human society might be heading that direction. Fortunately though, people change, and I think women are slowly rejecting this radical form of feminism. Life can be boring w/o real men.

Not sure if this fits the topic, but it's quite interesting.

The classic 1982 sci-fi horror THE THING has an upcoming 2011 PREQUEL of the same title, and the lead character is FEMALE.

The 1951 film version (The Thing From Another World) was male-driven, while the 1982 film had an all-male cast.

When I look at the story of the 1982 film, it's clear that NO woman was involved among the Norwegians, and the film begins with 2 MALE Norwegians in a helicopter shooting at a husky (The Thing).

The 2011 prequel tells the story of the Norwegians in the 1982 film.

I think there are even multiple females in the prequel aren't there? The Thing, to me, is the greatest movie ever, and if they won't show it more respect than this, they can keep their prequel.

I heard they even got Americans to play all the Norwegians. Must've been afraid a real one might have snuck some pro-Palestinian subtext in.

How awful. I'm sure she'll be the gun-toting, order-giving, ass-kicking, testosterone-driven, heroine protagonist that we've all now seen in movies and television over the past 15 years.

Well, if it's a prequel, then we know they all must've died off before the sequel (the original gem of a movie and one of the last movies ever made, from an era (circa 1982), before political-correctness started infiltrating the country and culture at full-throttle), because none exist in it. So, if they want to stay true to the story line of the sequel, they will all have to die at the end of this prequel.

It's the same reason why I didn't go see "King Arthur" from 2004, because it was a feminist version where she was just another warrior among the men and not romantically-involved with Arthur, but "independent" of him. Same reason I didn't see the latest "Robin Hood", because Marian was yet another damn warrior. Good god, talk about revisionist history. I guess they want to make radical feminism retroactive to the dawn of time so they are not portrayed as "keeping house" or having and raising kids.

Great article, Don.

The premeditated, all-inclusive devaluing of love between males and females is a caustic, far-reaching crime, perpetrated against numerous generations of American and European whites.

Male-female love, once the essence of our race, has been gradually chauffeured into a void of obsessive materialism and candid self-centeredness. The notion of self-sacrifice is now an absurd, chauvinistic concept, fossilized in the golden hour of white humankind"¦when white men loved their women and children, respected themselves, treasured the traditions of their forefathers, and would willingly embrace death so that their race may endure.

Modern women are no longer feminine"¦simply because modern men are no longer masculine. Wigger husbands beget wigger sons, spawn wigger daughters, and produce worthless, wigger wives.

As we chronicle daily here at CasteFootball, the "influential"Â￾ members of modern civilization attempt to create a zeitgeist of Pro-Wiggerness in white males. If they slay the father, such goes the family.Edited by: Thrashen

Man, Thrashen, you know what's up and you definitely know how to express it.

Let's discuss the future of our global economy and society.
Specifically, I'd like to discuss women, and the role women will play in
transforming our global economy and society over the next decade. I
also want to share some thoughts on the role women will play in helping
transform The Coca-Cola Company over the next decade and beyond.



Like so many of you, I usually start my day with National Public
Radio. And driving into work one recent morning, I got stuck in Atlanta
traffic and my attention turned to a report on the radio. It was yet
another story about China's rise in the world. Some economists were
predicting that China would most likely eclipse Japan as the world's
second largest economy by the end of this year -- a full five years
ahead of most previous projections.



Perhaps you heard the same report. China's GDP is projected to grow
to more than $5 trillion dollars this year. Of course, a day doesn't go
by without some new breathtaking statistic about China or India or
Brazil, or some other fast-growing economy in the developing world. No
one has done a better job chronicling the economic rise of the rest of
the world than Fareed Zakaria. I've had the good fortune of meeting
Fareed on a number of occasions and I am always impressed by his
fascinating insights on the global landscape. In his seminal book, The
Post-American World, he wrote at length about the nations that
will be driving the 21st century economy, and the implications this will
have on America.



I think there's another way of looking at this as well -- one that
goes beyond national comparisons. In fact, I would say that real
drivers of the "Post-American World" won't be China ... or India ... or
Brazil -- or any nation for that matter. The real drivers will be
women. Women entrepreneurs, women business, political, academic and
cultural leaders -- and women innovators. The truth is that women
already are the most dynamic and fastest-growing economic force in the
world today.



Women now control over $20 trillion dollars in spending worldwide.
To put that into context -- that's an economic impact larger than the
U.S., China and India economies combined. But there's so much more to
the story. Here in the U.S., women-owned businesses account for nearly
$4 trillion dollars in GDP. That's right: $4 trillion dollars in
economic output. This alone constitutes the fourth-largest economy in
the world. Only the U.S., Japan and China are larger today.



Women's entrepreneurship doesn't stop at U.S. borders, of course. It
is soaring around the world. In fact, today, one in 11 working-age
women is now involved in entrepreneurship. And the highest percentages
of women business owners are in markets you might not expect. Consider
this: nearly 20 percent of working women in Thailand are entrepreneurs.
In India, it's 14 percent; Argentina, 12 percent; Brazil, 11 percent;
and Mexico and Chile 10 percent. And these percentages are rising every
year.



So, let's for the moment forget all the talk about the "China
Century" or the "India Century" or the "BRIC Century." The real story
is that the 21st century is going to be the "Women's Century." As the
world desperately looks for ways to restart and reset the global
economy, the solution lies right in front of us. In the words of World
Bank President Robert Zoellick, gender equality is simply "smart
economics."</font>



Now, I realize some of you may be scratching your head and thinking
-- "Why is this guy so interested in women's empowerment issues?"
That's a fair question. For starters, I have been managed by women all
of my life ... beginning at birth with my mother. Now Defne and my
daughter, Selin, continue that strong management tradition today. I
like to think they've done a wonderful job.



Selin is also in the early stages of her professional career. I
would like to see my daughter flourish professionally in a world that is
more just and equitable for women, and where the benefits of diversity
are fully appreciated. I also a feel a deep and personal obligation to
uphold the legacies of my father and father-in-law -- men of great
principle who worked tirelessly to promote the rights of all men and
women.



And, of course, as a business leader and someone who has been given
the responsibility of creating shareholder value for the world's most
recognized brand -- I feel a tremendous sense of urgency in ensuring
that conditions are ripe for women to thrive around the world.



Call it self-interest ... or enlightened self-interest -- it really
doesn't matter. Creating a climate of success for women globally is
just simply smart business for a consumer-products company. It's smart
business for any company. Empower women and you recharge the world.



In recent months, magazines ranging from Business Week to The
Economist have cited studies that show a direct correlation
between women's empowerment and national GDP growth, business growth,
environmental sustainability, and improved human health, just to name a
few things. The community, social, and family implications are vast.
For instance, there's no question that women influence public opinion
inside the home.



At Coca-Cola we have massive banks of information on shoppers and
consumers around the world and all of our data points to women as the
household opinion elites. Women determine what comes into the home and
in what quantity and frequency. It's probably no surprise to you that
women account for the majority of purchase decisions for our beverages.
In fact, they represent 70 percent of all grocery shoppers.



At Coca-Cola, we can't grow our business or reach any of our
long-term business goals without greater women's economic empowerment
and entrepreneurship around the world. In fact, no business or economy
will be able to grow without this. All the growth projections we've
been hearing about for the coming years -- for China, for India, for
Africa, for North and South America -- none of it will be possible
without women's economic empowerment.



The only way a projected billion people will rise to the middle class
in the next 10 years... the only way the world will grow $20 trillion
dollars richer... the only way more nations will rise out of poverty and
become more politically stable... will be by women achieving gender
parity on a global scale.



If we fail in this regard, the world's economy will fail.



While business and society have made great progress in recent years,
the journey has just begun. We still see too many roadblocks to women's
empowerment. Cultural roadblocks ... educational roadblocks ...
political roadblocks ... financial roadblocks, and technology
roadblocks, to name just a few. I had a great conversation not long ago
with President Obama's Ambassador-at-Large for Global Women's Issues,
Melanne Verveer. Ambassador Verveer said something very poignant about
the persistent lack of access to capital for women entrepreneurs.



She said, and I quote: "Too many of the best business ideas die in
bank parking lots. That's got to change and it will change." Here I'd
like to outline 3 concrete ways that business, government and academia
can have a significant impact in generating female empowerment around
the globe.

This is the new model. We in business have to think differently
about the way we work with and view governments and NGOs. Governments
and NGOs, in turn, need to think differently about the way they work
with and view business. And academia needs to continue be an impartial
filter of the truth -- keeping us all honest.



So let me just preface this by saying that these three areas are not
nice to-dos ... rather they are imperative to our long-term viability.

1. The first way we can help fuel women's
empowerment is the most obvious: Accelerating women's leadership within
our own four walls.

One of the most fulfilling programs I am personally involved in is
serving as the chair of our company's Women's Leadership Council, which
we initiated three years ago. In this role, I work with senior women
executives throughout our company to identify strategies to accelerate
global recruitment, development, advancement and retention of women.



The program is built around the core focus areas of:

<ul>[*]Building a leadership pipeline[*]Creating an enabling culture that values personal sustainability.[*]And driving employee engagement within our company.[/list]



One area of major concern for our women employees across all of our
global geographies is work-life balance. To help ease some of the
burden, in 2008 we initiated flexible-work arrangements in North
America and provided a global framework and tool kits for our business
units around the world.



In addition, we have grown the number of women in upper management
level positions across our company, and our female employee engagement
rate is now higher than our overall company engagement rate. Today,
women hold top leadership positions in our corporate finance group,
including our Head Controller, M&amp;A and Internal Audit executives.



Women make up half of our Global Public Affairs and Communications
leadership team, and about half of our legal team. We have women in our
top science and regulatory, quality and human resources positions. One
of our largest and most important global operating units -- Europe --
is led by a woman, and our operations in my native country, Turkey, is
run by a woman.



While we've made good progress the past three years, we have much,
much work to do. I am holding myself accountable for greater progress.
We have aggressive metrics in place that are embedded into our 2020
Vision -- our growth path forward for the next 10 years and beyond. We
are pushing ourselves to more than double our volume and revenue. We're
pushing ourselves to be among the greatest places in the world to work.
We're pushing ourselves to be even more consumer focused ... more
community focused ... and more environmentally focused.



We can't do any of that without greater participation of women at our
senior ranks, and we know we need to get there sooner rather than
later. For Coca-Cola, this is absolutely mission critical. The keen
insights women bring to our business are profound, to say the least. As
more and more women around the world gain economic power, we need to be
there to ensure the right shopper insights, the right mix of products,
and the right marketing and merchandising strategies.



This is the message I took to Davos earlier this year when I appeared
on a gender-parity panel discussion with Arianna Huffington and
Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg, among others.



2. Another theme that was echoed in that discussion
was the importance of bringing more women-owned businesses into our
supply chains -- which is the second area where business, government and
academia can continue to impact massive change. Because of the global
reach and influence of our operations, we can be powerful agents of
constructive change.



One of the most exciting women's entrepreneurial development programs
we have been involved in at Coca-Cola is our Micro Distribution Center
network in Africa. This program allows independent entrepreneurs to set
up distribution centers on behalf of our company. Micro Distribution
Centers are typically located in areas where a lack of stable roads and
infrastructure makes it difficult for delivery trucks to travel.



This independent network of entrepreneurs distributes Coca-Cola's
beverage products to retailers, often by bicycle or pushcart. In fact,
the vast majority of our sales in countries such as Kenya, Tanzania,
Uganda, Ethiopia and Mozambique are the result of this business model.
Nearly a thousand of these businesses in Africa alone are owned by
women.



Here's story of one of these entrepreneurs. Her name is Rosemary
Njeri and she has been running a Micro Distribution Center in downtown
Nairobi for the last 10 years. She's a hard-working, hand's-on business
owner who likes to lead by example and is very loyal to her staff.
Rosemary has grown her business so successfully that today she employs
16 people, some of whom have worked with her since she started. Two of
her salespeople have been able to build their own houses from the income
they've earned working for Rosemary.



Rosemary's livelihood has simply blossomed. In addition to her
thriving distribution business, she now invests in real estate and she
has been able to educate all three of her children. The multiplier
effect of such actions are significant.



Today, across our global supply chain, we work with upwards of 10
million women-owned or operated businesses -- from suppliers and
distributors to retailers -- that derive a significant portion of their
profits from Coca-Cola. We know there's more we can do stimulate even
greater female participation across our global value chain.



Two weeks ago I met with President Clinton in New York and announced
our commitment to reach out and help empower 5 million women
entrepreneurs by the year 2020. Now that may sound bold, but I have
seen the power and conviction of our system, and when we put our mind to
something we achieve results. To achieve this, we're going to partner
with other companies, governments and civil society organizations to
bring all of our skills and resources to bear to help break down the
barriers that small businesswomen face. Barriers like access to credit,
peer networking and basic training. We're going to give high potential
women in our system a chance to champion and manage this work.



There is so much business knowledge across our workforce that we can
transfer to emerging entrepreneurs. Basic accounting knowledge,
business planning, marketing, merchandising, customer service, and legal
advice to name just a few areas. And we're going to encourage all
Coca-Cola associates -- men and women alike -- to take advantage of this
opportunity to support women small business owners through one-on-one
mentoring and training.



I should be clear, too, that this kind of initiative will also reach
millions of men who are part of this vast network. All boats will rise.
As our suppliers and retail customers gain greater skills and
empowerment, their businesses will reflect this. And Coca-Cola's
business will reflect this. We are all in this together. We've seen,
time and again, that as women rise in their communities -- the
communities themselves rise to new heights of prosperity and health.



3. This leads directly to the third area in which
business, government and academia can help promote global women's
economic empowerment, and that is by staying committed to sustainability
initiatives.



In this economic environment, there has been lots of discussion
across the business world about cutting back on corporate sustainability
initiatives. That's extremely short sighted as this is exactly the
time to recommit to these programs.



Whether it's, educational initiatives, environmental programs,
human-health programs, cultural programs or economic-development
initiatives -- all of these touch and influence women's empowerment and
entrepreneurship. Everything is inter-related.



We have experienced this countless times in the communities we serve
in over 206 countries. As you might imagine, water is a huge focus of
our sustainability efforts at Coca-Cola. It is central to our business
and to our future. Water is also a fundamental women's economic
empowerment issue.



Here's one example. In Mali, we dug a well in a rural village so
that women wouldn't have to spend 8 hours a day walking back and forth
to a clean water source. The savings in time allowed these village
women to reinvent their lives. Guess what they did with their new
freedom? They started their own catering and events business. This
well-drilling program, by the way, was developed by one of our young
female managers at Coca-Cola.



Which brings me back full circle. Smart organizations -- and those
that succeed over the next decade and beyond -- will understand that the
21st century is the "Women's Century." Women's economic empowerment
and entrepreneurial growth will drive the world's economy. It's not a
matter of "if" -- but rather a matter of "to what heights." For all of
us in business, government, education and civil society -- the
implications will be vast and profound. Everyone's success will be
contingent upon women's success.</font>





This is not a battle of the sexes. Far from it. This is a battle
for preserving and enhancing the world's economic, environmental and
social fabric. It's just that simple. No one knows this more than Yale
which has flourished to an unprecedented level these past 40 years as a
coeducational institution.

Adapted from the address I delivered to the Yale World Fund on October 1, 2010.

It's good to know our supply of carbonated sugar water is in such capable hands. Muhtart Kent is Turkish. There seems to be a plague of exotics heading up major corporations. MasterCard CEO Ajay Banga (Sikh). Aetna CEO Ron Williams (Black). Avon CEO Andrea Jung (Chinese). Pepsi CEO Indra Nooyi (Tamil).

If there were a 'Peoples of Color CEO Stock Index' (iShares symbol: WOG) it might be worth a short.

If "This Century Goes to the Women" is the title for the century then "Return to the Dark Ages" will be the subtitle. Really what more could one expect from an honored member of the PC kiss-ass club. If one were to use logic, that horrible male quality, on his article, you would find such things as:

"Here's one example. In Mali, we dug a well in a rural village so that women wouldn't have to spend 8 hours a day walking back and forth to a clean water source.

Who dug the well? Men. So the effort of men had to be used to help the women. If every female accomplishment has to be preceded by extreme male effort and investment then what good are the women?

But this guy has spent all his life in management positions, he doesn't realize that someone has to build his buildings, pipe his water, and sheet metal his heating and air conditioning. All he knows is that the world is run by people in suits that sit at desks. The rest just magically appears around them, or else is assembled by mindless male drones working in the mines.

His 'business model' is based on me earning money and my wife going to the store to buy his sugar water. So to this genius the person fetching his product is the important one not the guy earning the FRN's that he desires so badly. So to him burning up a zillion dollars to impower some poor woman in the jungle is a way of "investing". And that kind of math is why this world is in the shape it is in.

He is not a turk, he is most definetely a member of the Tribe. Turkey is in the hands of the Tribe from the days of ataturk, who was also a member of the Tribe.

Regarding the article. One way to destroy a society is to "empower" their women, to make them chase "careers", to make them put careers ahead of making and raising children.

Thats all there is to this move of empowering women, it is just another way through which the Tribe is trying to destroy White societies.

The "left" always asserts that Big Business is a "conservative" institution, but articles like that make it obvious that Big Business is a partner of the Cultural Marxists, along with the government. The left has always been funded by the government, foundations, and business. Having mindless, soulless, deracinated consumer-drones fits the agenda of both Cultural Marxism and the multinational corporations. "Feminism" has been the perfect weapon for the destruction of Western civilization.

Well said. I was walking through our local Fantasy Island a while back and saw two people cross paths. One a professor lady with the silk scarf and nice dress and briefcase headed into the English department. The other was the white male maintainance guy, with the keys and the toolbelt and the weathered look. And I thought, if this all goes in the tank and this ridiculously bloated educational system has to shut down for lack of money, which of these two will more be able to survive? Who's holding who up here?

If things get real again they'll be begging for real white men to come and fix it. Nobody else can.Edited by: The Hock

Great posts jaxvid and The Hock about the value of men in society.
