Feminists hate me.

These aren’t sweet. They aren’t cute. They’re creepy, and they seek to enforce patriarchal notions of femininity.
These little girls, who are taken out on dates by their fathers, are taught that men should do everything for them. Men open the door. Men pull out the chair. Men buy everything. Men even pick out their dresses and purses, in Fladager’s daughter’s case. It’s incumbent on the man to “ask questions” and draw her out. And it’s his job to validate her inner and outer beauty.
This is 2017. And newsflash, women don’t need men to do things for them. We don’t need some big, bad patriarchal figure to hold the door or compliment our inner beauty. We deserve men who are equal partners, who share life’s journey with us, and who treat us as equals. Daddy-daughter dates include an implicit power dynamic, and it’s not in favor of the girl.
Daddy-daughter dates don’t help girls learn what to expect from men. They teach them that men are superior, and they need to obey them; they try to mold girls into submissive, passive women. They’re one more tool of the patriarchy, one more way to hold girls back, but this time with a creepy sexual edge. If I had a daughter, I wouldn’t send her on dates with my husband.

First, Dads weren't involved enough. Now, they are too involved.

I'm guessing they never compliment her outer beauty.

Did she leap from father-daughter dances to rape culture?

How dare fathers tell their daughters they're beautiful inside and out! The HORROR!

I took my daughter to one last year, and I gotta say it did initially feel kind of creepy. But we had a good time, though she said she didn't care if we never did it again.
That rant is kind of dumb, though.

Ha! Me too!
I'm thrilled if feminists hate me. My wife and daughter hate them, so it works out.

No, it makes absolutely perfect sense...
Once you understand that all men are inherently evil, stupid rapists.

Fathers are not patriarchal figures. They are actual fricking patriarchs.
If the actual fricking patriarch can't act like a patriarch, who can?

My guess is she had a shitty dad and thinks that because of that either all dads are shitty or everyone should have to similarly shitty experiences with their fathers.

I meant like, in the whole country, not me. I'm not a parent.
