I had to look up the word "castigate" to make sure I had it right. Sure enough, all the definitions are basically: "reprimand severely". I've been called a "tumblr clown" because of this conversation. If I was some teenaged "SJW" with a tumblr account, I would not have been polite. I would have "called him out".…

Speak for yourself. I'd do anything for Core Concept to consider me a masterpiece. :'(
As long as it's humans making the laws and other humans determining when people have broken them, innocent people are going to fry.
Congratulations on succeeding at first grade reading comprehension. So what if you need another go at the second grade reading test. We can't all be winners. I'm sure your parents are proud in their own way.
The way that's most comforting to me is to approach it utilitarianistically (utilitarianally? Is there a word form for this?) and, like I said, try to game the numbers so the fewest number of innocent people get fucked over. But I understand that that is… not comforting to most people. I'm really only telling you how…
Well great, now I need to respond. What the fuck? I didn't threaten you, you paranoid idiot. I don't have a tumblr or a social justice blog or any kind of presence in that weird, cloying sphere. I brought it up to communicate to you that I was trying to just talk to another person in good faith INSTEAD OF threatening…
Well, because abusive situations are usually he-said-she-said. There's usually little in the way of evidence one way or the other. So you either take a policy of believing victims or doubting them until they convince you, which means a lot of victims fail the convincing test and we keep the millennia-long cycle of…
Ew, stringy.
Isn't that both a voice and a face for print journalism?
It's not about your right to have a preference, it's about you saying garbage and toxic things. Publicly.
Well sure, but there's plenty of secondary reasons I don't crush on Mulan or Tiana…
Yeah. Basically, you just have to not "put pussy on a pedestal", as they say. Some people are garbage; some of those people are going to be women. But women don't contain some special quality that makes them more likely to be liars and sociopaths.
My other advice: get a dog.
Uh, no?
It's also good to keep in mind that a culturally informed preference doesn't make you a racist or a bad person, but being in denial that you can be influenced by these social forces and defensive about a position of privilege makes you kind of a douche.
Huge guys, like the guys in Mr Universe competitions, look so ludicrous to me. I'm straight but I must admit I like looking at a muscular guy — like a Hemsworth or an Evans — basically any superhero in modern cinema — but those huge dudes just look deformed from some chemical accident. It's their comparitively small…
a nude female is already the most beautiful thing in the world… so why ruin that masterpiece
How would you know? In my experience, straight men don't like to talk about their preferences for women's breasts and bodies.
Yeah, that's the thing. Theythinks you doth protest too much.
