Beyonce : perfectly valid in the context we were discussion and in fact doesn't need to be the queen of black women to be a valid example. Her success and visibility actually make her the ideal example.

As I said in my original post to you, it's not dictating. It's an invitation.

Your welcome for that last straw.
"But then again you've cherrypicked your way through this entire conversation."
I completely agree with you on how feminism historically has been framed mainly by the white, privilege perspective. I had many issues with feminism in the 90's because, and George Carlin was saying this in the late 80's, white feminists don't give a flip about the issues of women of color face, much less issues of…
There is literally no attempt from feminism in general to contain nonsense like tumblr fems pushing tags like #killallmen, or justifying inequalities seen in divorce/custody rights because of past inequalities.
Actually, if you are one of the guys who has it out for kotaku because of the whole gamergate stuff, it kinda does. See, those guys have made their view of feminism quite clear and are perfectly willing to over characterize the negative aspects of something they don't like in order to outright dismiss it. Like you…
No rape is a word AND an act. Feminism is a word AND a political viewpoint. It's not selective employment of logic, it's understanding the appropriate context for when you should and should not demonize a world. The word "rape" at it's worst should have horrible and violent connotations. Feminism at it's worst just…
First of all, if you read the above post, I was responding to the other guy's claim of " I stand for what Terry stands for" Look at the discussion at hand before you lead off with calling BS on a statement you do not know the context of.
No. It just a word. If Terry doesn't have problem with it, it shouldn't bother you that much. If you are for what Terry is for, yet you wish to fall short of using the same label Terry is not afraid to use, you're excluding yourself for the most inconsequential of reasons.
No, I'm just wondering why you say you support gender equality but want to "hedge your bets" by not accepting a (truly innocuous) label that makes your support for gender equality unquestionable. If it truly is innocuous, than you won't mind being called that. You can't flip that accountability back on those…
AHAHAHAHAHAAHA! You lost me at baggage black people bring to the N word.
The only "baggage" a word has is the baggage you choose to bring to it. If you sincerely support feminist causes, a "label" wouldn't be a deal breaker. Also, if you are going to use a nebulous rationale like "certain camps" and justification for not embracing a innocuous label, you open yourself up to the assumption…

No, the movie was amazing and the cars were the best part.
Reading the comments, it seems to me that even when Kotaku turns in a fair and sympathetic story that portrays GG in a somewhat neutral light, there will always be the ones who still can't let go of the narrative that they are the ones being oppressed and misrepresented in the media due to a massive, nebulous…
