RE: Feminism And The Women's March On Washington

in #feminism • 8 years ago

There are some really great feminists, but like in any other movement, reasonable people are shoved aside and replaced by the most radical. I guess it's the "squeaky wheel gets the grease" syndrome. I like Christina Hoff Sommers and Camille Paglia, both make a lot of sense. I got to spend an hour or so with Camille when I was in Washington at a conference...what a wit!

    I've never came across the "squeaky wheel" idiom before.

    Attributed to this poem:

    "I hate to be a kicker,
I always long for peace,
But the wheel that does the squeaking,
Is the one that gets the grease."

      I just heard it in one of those old sayings "the squeaky wheel always gets the grease." I have never heard the root.
