Sheesh, you trying to take all the fun out of this echo?  Or develop a hit
list?  :-)  And what about other alternatives?

1. Feminism is a result of over-educated women suffering from brain fever.

2. Feminism is a plot by children to minimize parental supervision.

3. Feminism is a plot by capitalist to decrease the costs of labour by
creating a surplus labour pool, thus ensuring fierce competition for jobs
and lower labour costs.
4. Feminism is a plot by third world countries to reduce the population of
the industrialized nations to the point where emigration is required.
Thus allowing people of colour to take over the country.

5. Feminism is a plot by the multi-national drug companies to increase the
sale of contraceptives.

6. Feminism is a plot by the fashion industy to increase the sale of
clothing to working women.

Had to chuckle, Blanche, about Feminism being a Communist Plot. When I was
a chitlin' (back when dinosaurs roamed the earth) Elvis was "A Communist
Plot to Undermine American Family Values"..
