tenaflyviper:THIS. THIS EXACTLY.We went from “Girls got balls, they’re just a little higher up!” to “MAKING FUN OF BATH BOMBS IS MISOGYNISTIC!!!” (we won’t even get into the fact of gendering hygiene items, or fuckin’ lattes for that matter).We went from “We can all play together! Girls can play baseball, and boys can play with dolls! Do whatever you enjoy!” to “YOU CAN’T WATCH THIS PUBLICLY BROADCAST SHOW—IT’S FOR WOMEN ONLY! YOU’RE INVADING WOMENS’ SPACES!!”.I watched people on this site rally behind a guy’s right to wear a skirt to school. Then I watched the same people turn around, and try to exclude men from liking something they decided was “feminine”.They demand strong female characters in movies and games, and then complain that she’s either “not pretty enough”, “not realistic”, or “just a male fantasy”, even if the character was created by a woman.They talk about women being able to freely express and rejoice in their sexuality, and then turn around and chastise such women for “degrading themselves”.They cry about adult content “ruining” the things they like while simultaneously creating more gay porn for video games and children’s cartoons than I have ever seen in my entire fucking life. They cry about “sexualizing everything” while they make porn out of a fuckin’ clock and a pad of paper.I see girls screech about “fat shaming”, and demanding that armpit or leg hair shouldn’t be a deciding factor on whether or not a woman is beautiful, then turn around and screech about “neckbeards”, whine about how “gross” boys are that wear certain articles of clothing, and proudly proclaim how they’d never date a short man (a factor a person is completely unable to change, unlike weight).I’ve seen women claim to be “empowered”, yet live in fear of false statistics, and demand that they need “protection” from the rest of the world. It used to be about proving ourselves tough enough to handle anything, and now we want the world to dumb down because we’re apparently too delicate and sensitive to handle basic reality? Instead of “BRING IT ON!”, now it’s “No, that’s too SCARY! That might TRIGGER me!”. What the actual fuck??It’s a festering bouillabaisse of hypocrisy.This isn’t “empowering” women. It’s just being a whiny, spineless bunch of fuckin’ twats. You’re not allowed to be a happy, content woman. You have to be an angry, miserable one, or you have “internalized misogyny”.And then they sit around and get angry wondering why the rest of us want nothing to do with them, or their warped ideals. YOU EMBARRASS US, THAT’S FUCKING WHY. -- source link
