Experts Believe Lindsay Clancy Case May Set Feminist Movement Back Decades, But There May Be Some Negative Effects As Well
Experts speculated this week that the Lindsay Clancy trial had set the feminist movement back several decades, but warned that there could be negative effects as well.
In the wake of seeing thousands of women proclaim support for a child murderer, then hearing the irrational drivel of the female jurors who voted "not guilty," America decided that it was best to turn back the clock on women's rights. However, legal experts cautioned that the Clancy case may cause bad things to happen, too.
"America is on the brink of stripping away decades of gains for women's rights. Still, something not so great may also occur," said law professor Marcus Neighbors. "The Clancy case has done more to set back the feminist movement than anything a misogynist could have dreamed of. Watching today as hundreds of women gather around Oprah, cheering the idea of strangling children — you could not possibly do more to crush feminism. It's really a historic achievement. Still, there could be some separate downside to the trial."
The current feminist wave, which includes the belief that women are inherently superior leaders due to their peaceful nature, has been undercut by millions of women openly cheering homicide. "The Clancy trial has somehow caused feminists to argue that women are completely controlled by their hormones," said legal expert Ben McCray. "They now vehemently say that women are so weak and feeble that they can't even be held responsible for their own actions. The nation now agrees with their assessment."
At publishing time, political experts had warned that the holdout juror's race could drive a wedge between liberals and black Americans, but something negative might happen politically as well.
