aravelleYes, this post will be regarding the points/things the person I discussed in my previous entry made about certain things, mostly pertaining to feminism.
Okay, so if men are designed to be promiscious and women aren't, whom are they supposed to be promiscious with? Other men? Or, are there women who "malfunction" to the benefit of the men? Are there certain women programmed to help men, and thus the common of human sexuality revolves around men? Because that's fucking sexist and problematic.
"If a woman expects a man to be an angel in her life, she should first create a heaven for him."
Oooh that rustled my jimmies. Firstly, who said we want an angel? What if we want a fellow demon to create chaos with us? I know there are lots of women who would just love to be rescued from themselves and their daily life, but do you know why? The media, my friend. The media feeds us the dreams and glorifies them, even from a very young age. I know Disney sure as hell left its impression on me, or so I think it was solely Disney [not sure thanks to past life stuff] but when I was in pre-school I was planning my goddamned wedding, and wanted nothing more than to love and be in love with a boyfriend. Even if my influence was not solely Disney, I know I'm not the only one who felt that way. One could blame parents for for exposing them to that, but to be mad at your parents for showing you movies that are generally wholesome and promote good values, regardless of that odd side effect of heavy romanticism? Come on.
Oh god, and then your whole scpheel [sp?] on female celebrities.
"So I’m not allowed to have opinions because I might hurt someone’s feelings? Sadly that’s how a lot of people thing these days. Just remember that they also make more money than most people will ever hope to, and are able to influence the zeitgeist like no others. They have some really special privileges, but every privilege comes at a cost."
Uh, you're allowed to have an opinion, but that doesn't mean you get to be a hateful cunt. There is a difference between disliking someone, disliking their choices, or finding them unattractive versus being hateful. Also, you don't seem to notice that male artists get significantly less criticism and get away with more shit [the exclusion being someone like Justin Bieber, whom was hated unjustly from the beginning but has now become a giant mentally unwell asshat.]
[to be continued when anger strikes again]
