Feminism interests me. Not because I’m a misogynist, or chauvanist, or sexist, or any other *.ist you might whip up. I’m just me. Nestor. The problem with Feminism is that instead of identifying and correcting inconsistiencies within the gender roles and striving for a balance, they instead veer off to the other extreme, misandry. Look it up if you’ve never heard of it before.
This is what disturbs me. Rather than establishing an empowerment of the female psyche, an embodiment of what it’s like to truly exist within ones’ own gender, they instead lash out destructively at the other gender… to accomplish what? To further increase the division between the two sexes? What, exactly can come from these enforced divisive tactics?
So extremist feminism is really a bunch of hopped up cunts with no sense in their heads. That’s really all there is to it.
I’d been thinking about El Jeffe’s post today, and finally brought it up during a guild run today. Yes, we can talk about such things. One girl said, “Well, we truly don’t own our bodies, we’re simply receptacles for your penises.” And on a superficial level, that’s true, but grossly inaccurate on a majority.
God, Nature, Old Man Habeeb, whatever it is you believe in, made you with a passage, and made us with a tool to enter said passage. I don’t see the problem. you’re fighting against your very genetic makeup if you don’t like that, an ultimately futile and worthless gesture. As for “not owning your body” what the fuck is that shit? You have a vagina, yes? Do you control who/what/when/where/why goes in there? I’d certainly hope so! So in fact you are in posession of your vagina. Otherwise you really are simply a sperm receptacle for anyone with a penis, and are incapable of doing anything else other than accepting semen. Paints a crude picture of you being an unconcious and unwilling participant, doesn’t it?
For you to refute that image implies you have a sense of reason, an ability to utilize free will and make descisions. Certainly sounds like you’re not only in posession of your body, but also the concious ability to make choices that affect and impact you.
I also pose you the question of which, exactly, is more vulnerable? The one who is getting penetrated, or the one doing the penetrating? Decide for yourself.
Oh, god, how else did I take her statement apart? Ah yes. Having children, as relating to the whole ‘body ownership’ statement above. Yes, you carry children. Again, a genetic fucking imperative. But you’re pretty ignorant if you think that you’re carrying our children. You’re carrying around a child that is the contribution of two people. takes two to tango.
So what we have, then, is an absolution of free will, of responsibility, and an empty ideology supported with hollow words that really only define an insecurity from within. Perhaps you didn’t feel appreciated? Bah, who am I to analyze?
Anyway.
Why this fixation on the vagina? Let’s focus our attentions someplace else. Domestication, glass ceilings in the workplace, etc etc. These things can be fixed. Fuck, these things are getting fixed.
Hmmm.
Where, exactly is the problem?
Will I myself deny a woman an opportunity to feel empowered? certainly not. A woman who is in full command of her faculties, is comfortable in her sex and sexuality, who is flexible in both mind and body, these things I will not only lust after, but encourage. But at the same time, I will chastise and discourage any woman who feels the need to destroy men to elevate her own ideology regarding women.
Are men superior to women, or vice versa? Hahaha, now you’re asking questions.
You can’t say that one is superior or inferior to the other. each has complemetary characteristics that the other half lacks. This is what makes us whole. I will advance the opinion that men are quicker to react physically in situations while women on the other hand, will examine the situation intellectually before acting. Genetic imperative? Not sure. Maybe thousands of years of genetic memory where men smashed things and other people with clubs, rocks, spears, bows, guns, bombs and warheads gives us that defining characteristic. Men lead, women follow, or stay and raise kids, or whatever.
Anyway, the arguement concluded when I suggested that the woman was blowing hot air with unsubstantiated claims based off irrationality and an abdication of reason.
Bitch, get back in the kitchen and make me some fucking pancakes, ‘fore I give it to you up the other side of yo stupid head.
