I guess I just don't think the “illegal abortion-getters should be punished” is much better than saying “abortion-getters should be punished” IF he says he wants to make abortion illegal. I agree that people are taking his quote a little out of context, but the actual context is still really bad.
But didn't he preface this by saying that he thinks abortion should be illegal? I could be mistaken.
But didn't he say this after he said that abortions in general should be illegal? So isn't the end result the same?
I didn't say *not being a feminist* is misogynist. I said *hating feminism* is misogynist. Do you kind of see what the difference might be?
Hating feminism is textbook misogyny, dude.
Hahahahaha
You really think a hijab is over the line? The French law seems pretty extreme.
Did you really just compare FGM to wearing a hijab?
You've got to be kidding with this. Did you see the video in the article?
Did he also say you “have to treat women like shit”, or did I imagine that?
Aw, thanks!
Thanks! I definitely don’t think women think the same way when hearing about a new guy at work. Because we assume they won’t be hot, because most people aren’t hot. If someone walks into the office and happens to be sexually attractive to women, that is against the odds. In my experience, women are not nearly as…
I’ll read the rest of your reply later, because I’m watching The Wave right now, but one thing: a man hitting a woman is (in general) worse than a woman hitting a man. Not in theory, but in reality men tend to be much stronger than women. I wish it weren’t true. I wish we were as strong (and I wish feminists would…
I don’t think being offended is necessarily a conscious decision. It can be sometimes, but in my experience it’s mostly like an uncontrollable twist in the stomach. This party wouldn’t make my stomach twist, but it would definitely make me uncomfortable just because it’s very clear that the event planners planned a…
I don’t believe it on an intellectual level. It’s something I’ve internalized.
It would make me uncomfortable (although I doubt I’d say anything, because I’m not that brave) because it’s a party clearly designed just for guys to have fun. As I’m not a guy, it’s not for me. So I’d probably leave. It’s not the greatest injustice known to women, but it’s something that should ideally not come from…
They have problems, but not because they're white. Or straight. Or dudes.
Anecdote: my parents were wonderful. They didn’t teach me that women’s primary purpose is to be sexually appealing to men. But I definitely learned it somewhere.
I don't think that's what's happening here. At all.
