Sexism/Feminism/Womanism Discussion Thread Social • Page 83

Honestly I been expecting this for a while. Too much fucking with anti sjws lol sooner or later something gives

 

Honestly, I could get deep into a conversation about her, people like her, and how it often causes deep seated trust issues among trans people (myself included) and their relationship to feminism/cis-feminists, but I don't feel it's worth my time nor that this is the place to do so. With that said, I haven't trusted her for a while, even before this whole "taking the red pill" thing and I'm ultimately glad she's showing her true colors so obviously now that others can see it.

R. Kelly Is Holding Women Against Their Will In An Abusive “Cult,” Parents Told Police

 

This might help explain why it took me so long to get an appointment with mine recently - I don't recall it being that difficult before this year.

 

I always have to schedule mine months in advance. Sucks if I have to cancel too cause then it takes forever to get a new one, tho luckily my doctor is cool about extending my birth control so I don't run out in the meantime. Actually my eye doctor takes forever too. They schedule me a year in advance. The only one who doesn't take forever is my general. It caught me off guard when I went to the doctor recently for a bad cough cause they got me in that day and I thought it'd be like weeks lol.

 

Osheaga Outlines Additional Protective Measures for Female and LGBTQ Festivalgoers

 

Making a gyno appointment was hard before but now like Kiana I have to do it months in advance.

 

Or you can be like me and pretend you don't have a female reproductive system, so far that's sort of worked out the last 4ish years

Rick Ross on Not Signing Women to MMG: “I Would End Up Fucking a Female Rapper” | Pitchfork

 

rick ross has always been a pos who raps about raping women sadly. i don't understand why he's popular

 

Today I was eating at a bar with a friend. A man came up between us with his face in our space and made an "MMMmmmm" noise which obv was creepy but then he walked out so I was like whatevs. But then he came back in and as he walked out again he went between us and this time he touched our arms and then kissed our shoulders. I was so surprised I didn't even say anything. Then he left the bar and came back AGAIN and this time on his way out he touched our arms again and said something about how nice it was to meet us and I STILL didn't say anything but leaned away from him and he backed off.

Like I know it is understandable to freeze up but I'm still annoyed that I did. Espesh cause after he left each time I mentally prepared what I was gonna say if he came back and then he came back twice and I still didn't say it. Meh.

 

I feel you on that. The worst of it is, if I don't call someone out for their unacceptable behavior, I feel guilty and complicit. With guys like that, though, it's even harder to speak up because you don't know if they'll react violently. I mean, shit, you may have saved your own life by freezing up.

 

Yeah it sucked cause he seemed to be a regular and it did occur to me that if I did say something the bartender/patrons night defend him and say I'm overreacting or something. It sucked afterwards cause we had to walk a ways at night to my work cause I had left my car there and needed it, but every man or silhouette I saw i was worried it was that guy and I was super paranoid

 

Why Rashida Jones Changed Her Mind About Porn

... feminine power that is sometimes called feminism comes from capitalism. If you are making money, you are powerful; therefore, anything you do to make that money makes you powerful; therefore, anything you do to be powerful is feminist. That has been the narrative that was presented to me, and that’s what I’m trying to ask questions about.

let's goooooo

 

i mean, interesting perspective but it's a bit dangerous to say "feminism comes from capitalism, if you're making money you are powerful" it's like a slippery slope to the kind of feminists that shame stay at home moms etc

or maybe I just want to have a problem with everything idk

 

my understanding was that she agrees with you, that it's not a good way to implement feminism bc it elevates rich women above critique when we shouldn't do that

 

hmm I also meant to say I didn't read the actual article I was just responding to the quoted bit that you posted

 

Ball: Ref who gave me technical isn't qualified

Sports culture continues to treat women like shit in all aspects, whether its in their direct employment or dealing with accusations against players and coaches. Disgraceful.

 

yeah another friend read it the same way you did at first, the lede is kind of buried with the quote i gave - she only actually says what she thinks at the very bottom
