An Issue with Aspects of Feminism
[From my Tumblr](http://eddieinternet.tumblr.com/post/20815566239/feminists-can-be-a-bit-catty)
Not sure if the link came out right, but anyway, thoughts? The post is meant to be a quicker view on things. I'd expand on it, but I feel that the general, necessary viewpoint is all there.
Once again, not all Feminists are bad and many of them fight for a noble cause. But as the post points out, it doesn't always end up well.
The first half is much less important than the second half.

I spent a few minutes answering some specific points before I couldn't take this seriously at all. You've created such a monstrously inaccurate strawman of feminism that I have to wonder if it's intentional, because this level of delusion is impressive. The feminist 'arguments' you picked are laughable. Do you really think there's only one justification for saying the media is sexist, and that is has to do with looking at the camera? Do you really think feminists want to see less diversity in female game characters, as long as they don't have big boobs? Or that the Barbie issue is the 'most important' thing to gender equality efforts? The second part is a huge load of sexist bullshit based on you extrapolating a handful of narrow personal experiences to women and feminists in general. You're not fooling anybody by slipping in a few little platitudes about not discouraging girls from intellectual achievement, when you turn around and bash on women for being catty bitches because you don't think they act enough like men. If you actually want to engage someone in a discussion about feminism, you might want to ditch your nauseatingly misogynistic tone. But if you're more interested in just jerking off about how much you hate this imaginary feminism, then keep it up. I spent a few minutes answering some specific points before I couldn't take this seriously at all Good thing you reacted non-seriously, then. You've created such a monstrously inaccurate strawman of feminism that I have to wonder if it's intentional totally, yo. that's why you've gone on to attack my strawman argument. this level of delusion is impressive. since you're not being serious... thanks? Do you really think there's only one justification for saying the media is sexist, and that is has to do with looking at the camera? no.... Do you really think feminists want to see less diversity in female game characters the things you pick up... amazing... but no. Or that the Barbie issue is the 'most important' thing to gender equality efforts? lol, how many arguments against feminism did you read today? cause i think you're mashing together different points. handful of narrow personal experiences to women and feminists in general. totally, good thing I said "some." You're not fooling anybody by slipping in a few little platitudes about not discouraging girls from intellectual achievement, when you turn around and bash on women for being catty bitches because you don't think they act enough like men. I guess you didn't get the ironic statement... maybe parenthesis aren't yo thang. whatevvs. If you actually want to engage someone in a discussion about feminism, you might want to ditch your nauseatingly misogynistic tone. But... aren't you a "someone?" But if you're more interested in just jerking off about how much you hate this imaginary feminism, then keep it up. Now, I may be very drunk right now, but i'm not just gonna jerk off to the many amazing things i say. If that were the case, I'd never need to leave my place ever again. no... i'm not my type :( |
