I would have no problem with that.

I'm pretty sure that for the OP sex pos feminism IS sexy feminism. Since she was extra careful to be extra sexy in her post and let us all know how very very much she loves having sex. "I know I would." Wink wink wink wink wink.

You know what? Go to hell.

There's something off about this whole project, and I'm still not sure what it is in full.

Let me break this down for you. Exoticizing means racist. Girlggrey is pointing out that you're racist. Not that you have a poor taste.

mwynn13 didn't say beautiful. He/she said "gorgeous, interesting." Who the fuck the talks about someone's face as gorgeous and interesting? Racist people.

Honestly, they need to make these with actual SPECIFIC examples of abuse.

Up there on the list of disappointing things I have learned about humanity (right along with the holocaust and plague blankies) is that %99 of men refuse to learn anything about vaginas. Thus, hearing a man talk about a vagina is a lot like reading Marco Polo writing about Indians. They had two heads and eyes on their…

I think that's because it's NOT satire. There are a lot of pretty funny videos that parody rape apology out there. The ONION had a great one about the student athlete who survived the rape he committed. But this really dark and disturbing and I think it's meant to be and that it should be. At a certain point satire…

You must love this song.

I think you might be right. But that doesn't necessarily lead me to condemn the father. I would rather my child be raised by their other biological parent than adopted out if, for some reason, I couldn't or didn't feel up to being in their life. The threat of seeing your child handed over to people who aren't related…

You're all like, "Yeah, no..." like this is a field you have some experience in. (I know. You're an "engineer." That's sciencey right?) Actually scientists (like all people in fields that require that they periodically present their research to the community) are extremely selective about what sorts of events they…

As I just pointed out in a different reply... it doesn't matter how many women they tried to get to participate. Or how hard they tried. When women voluntarily opt out of an event like this that also defines the event as sexist/hostile to women.

Wow. No.

OMG. You're like a little meta machine.

OMG I love your post. But I kinda feel like other people might not love it as much as is.

I want to preface this by saying that I appreciate your preface. Especially since the last person I responded to basically said outright that they didn't believe me. (In such a nice way mind you.)

Really? I mean... really? You are going to respond to my post about misogyny in the humanities by saying the equivalent of "I don't believe you"?

I know. That's what people seem to be missing here. These guys are scientists in the eyes of... whom??? People like io9ers. Who are interested in "science." You know, the same way I want to go to "Africa." This panel would be more appropriate at a sci-fi conference.

Because "feminist" men never actually give anything up for their pro-women politics. Forego a professional confernce because it excludes women? No. I have never seen it happen.
