I am a male feminist, so you know. I am not like all these over men who abuse and rape women. I would never do such horrid male things, I am a feminist.

So Fellow feminists,

I don't want to contribute towards the evil patriachal state in which our country is in. I do not wish for women to be oppressed in to such suffering, and as such will fight for feminism until my dying breathe.

I would not wish to contribute towards the patriachys gender roles in any way (I would rather die) - My life is not worth anything in comparison to the trillions of women being oppressed, I would gladly die to prevent women from being so oppressed. If I could give up my life to prevent even an ounce of oppression I would. Infact, I would galdly give up everyman on the planets life to prevent the awful burdens of laundry placed on our women. I mean, not OUR women because they don't belong to us, I mean the women of the country, NO!!!! They do not belong to our male dominated country, I mean all of the women whom the country belongs to YES That is what I mean.

Anyway
As such, I would like not to name my son using a male name, which would only promote the oppression of women by conforming to the evil male-chauvanist roles of our damned society. I have only womens interests at heart and as such would not allow myself to do anything which would cause my son to become a future rapist or abuser. Every female life is infinitly valuable and I cannot allow my son to ever hurt a woman in any way! Therefore, I can not give him a "male" name. (Who do these chauvinist pigs think they are thinking these names belong to men!!!!!)

Therefore, I would like to name him either Jessica or Jennifer, and was wondering which one you think I should choose??????

I went out with a lad for a year and a half called Lindsay and my mate shagged a guy called Jodie. I know loads of men with girls names

I feel sorry for your son already.

Leave the naming of children to your wife,parents, relatives as they may have better judgment than you.



Androgenous names should lessen the burden of your offspring.



Robin,Sasha, Sydney, Gabe, Gene, Jordan..



PS

and keep your feminist neurosis .to yourself. By the time your son is old enough to even study about your angst on the matter, it would have been taught as an issue some 30-50 years ago that had since been resolved.

Are you insane? Please spare your son the embarrassment of give your son a traditionally girl's name. I hope you can afford the therapy bills that he will need. The constant ridiculing in school. Johnny Cash sang a song " A boy named Sue" listen to it. Give him a name that does bring undo stress upon him and teach him your ideal. Whether I agree with you or not.

you know that your child will be a victim at the end of the day and he will hate you right?



why not go with something like Jessy (it's pretty ambiguous but still not manly enough)?



i mean it's not all about you. why should your child bear your cross?

name him Johnnifer. I guess, Poor baby, Just change ur name to Sally and give ur son a boy's name



I don't think its the name you give him, its how you raise him!!!!!!!!!! Name him something unisex like Leslie or Seven or even Alex.
