<p>So Hugh Heffner is a feminist.  Who knew?</p>

<p>The Husband and I were flipping channels on Sunday night, and we saw that Hugh and his girlfriends were on.  Of course, we watched.  We&#39;re classy like that.</p>

<p>Donny Deutsch (<i>that guy is such a dork.  Why is he on TV?</i>)  asked girlfriend #1 if she thinks that she is setting back the women&#39;s movement by not working, and you know, living with a man 50 years older than her.</p>

<p>She looked terrified, and with eyes as big as saucers said in her tiny little voice, &quot;<font size="1">b-b-but... I don&#39;t have to work?  I&#39;m working on a business degree with no plans to use it!</font>&quot;</p>

<p>&quot;Why?&quot; asked Steroid Donny.</p>

<p>&quot;<font size="2">Because my boyfriend is really rich!</font>&quot;  Duh.  She showed him.  I wanted to smack her, but I also thought that &quot;playing Scrabble&quot; with Hugh Heffner is punishment enough.</p>

<p>Donny the Dork was so pleased with this answer he could hardly wipe the smirk off his face.  Then he asked Hugh the same question.  Except that this time he talked about the three Girlfriends as if they weren&#39;t in the room.</p>

<p>Hugh Heffner looked like he was about to smack Donny himself.  And then he icily replied, &quot;Feminism, as I understand it, is about choices.  And freedom.&quot;  </p>

<p>Holy shit.  He vocalized my definition of feminism.  Yet he still creeps me out.  Ewww!</p>

<p>Then to top everything off, Girlfriend #2 (or #3 I honestly can&#39;t tell the difference) helpfully added &quot;<font size="2">I&#39;m going to massage school!</font>&quot;  He he.</p>

<p>So why is it that Donny Deutsch thinks that one (or three) women&#39;s choices represent the entire female movement?  Must we take on the entire weight of the world everytime we make a decision?  Is being a woman the same thing as joining a union?</p>

<p>Because I don&#39;t know about you, but my choices are made mainly on how they affect me and my family.  I can&#39;t think for every single woman out there.  While I choose to stay home, I know that it is not right for everybody.  Just like low waisted jeans.  Simply not right for everybody.</p>

<p>But just as I make the best choices for me, I trust you can do the same for yourself.  Even if that means living with Hugh Heffner.  Eeewww!</p>
