And criticizing people’s ideologies is a bad thing because.....?

At least I haven’t yet seen any feminists hypocritically popping in to defend this patriarchal BS.

“Essentially it boils down to legislation to curb child pornography states that the imagery need only ‘appear’ to be that of an underage person.” Even that’s over the top because a person in their early or mid 20's can still look like a teenager.

So we, as feminists, are no longer allowed to object to people being called whores, sluts, fags, dykes, carpetmunchers, bitches, or other derogatory slurs without being accused of ‘puritanism’? Cultural context has to be looked at before dismissing people’s reactions to different slurs as puritanism. Unlike sex…

So women being considered sluts and whores has no bearing on what happens to women and girls? I give no shits about Melania as an individual and couldn’t care less about conservative “Don’t slut-shame our submissive fair maidens, but the rest of womankind is fair game” tears, because it’s hypocrisy. Conservatives…

But is it all the other mess she’s done/is complicit in that you’re saying you judge her harshly for, is it her sex work and sexual history? Don’t get me wrong, I have no sympathy for anyone Trump, and I think the right-wing faux concern about slut-shaming and whorephobia that only conveniently pops up when it’s a…

I’m bisexual and a feminist but to me, a straight celebrity playing the role of a bisexual or gay character isn’t problematic like a white actor/actress playing the role of a person of color. If we were to apply that standard to actors and sexual orientation, the only people who wouldn’t be criticized for playing a…

This. “Let’s not get too partisan” is just another extension of the #NotAllTrumpSupporters card used to shield both the Trump family and people who voted him into office from valid criticism. It’s the sort of mentality that got us in this mess in the first place and is currently endangering people’s rights and safety…

Being afraid of alienating racist, misogynistic fans who are cool with voting xenophobic, reproductive rights-destroying rapists into office when you’re already successful enough and wealthy enough to not need support from those members of society is still a pretty selfish move though, especially for someone who…

I don’t feel like someone’s having done or said something problematic before should mean they’re not a real feminist though, especially if it was something more out of ignorance and admiration than malice.

There seems to be a correlation between men with accountability issues and men who can’t stand the fact feminine immodesty exists.

So it’s conservatives who want to make it legal for people to have sex for money, and not liberals?

So it’s conservatives who want to make it legal for people to have sex for money, and not liberals?

A person making money off of doing something for someone else doesn’t make them (or other people who happen to share their gender, race, etc.) an object though. A cashier is not an object. A waiter/waitress is not an object. Neither is a maid, plumber, teacher, doctor, cook, nurse, chiropractor, dancer, or anyone else…

It’s actually the other way around. The more a group of people are portrayed as less than and wrong, and treated unequally by the government and society, the more normalized abuse of them becomes. The idea that certain kinds of consensual sexuality are inherently ‘wrong’ for women to participate in has not kept women…

Proof? Because so far nothing has come out revealing the wife or the other woman were sex slaves or underage. Unless that changes, I’m bothered by the fact that this is another case of two consenting adult women being criminalized for accepting pay for something most people do at some point anyway.

Oddly, it sounds similar to- but a whole lot less offensive and problematic than-the arguments that some feminists and radfems make about women abstaining from things like wearing revealing clothes, porn, sexy/revealing pics and selfies, sexual dance moves, casual sex, sex work, and other sexually immodest behaviors:…

An obese woman is just failing to be attractive to you ; a person refusing services to someone based on their race and leaving a gloating text message about it to the customer is engaging in racial discrimination and behaving in a way that’s unethical, illegal, and promotes and invites hostility and aggression, so…

It’s to encourage whoever her employer is to fire her, tarnish her reputation, make her unhireable, and make her experience public shaming. If anyone decides to go beyond that to violence, that’s in part their fault and something they’re to be held fully accountable for by the law, and in part her fault for being a…

If the GOP and their supporters have an issue with being perceived as racist, (as well as misogynistic, homophobic, transphobic, as greedy oppressors of the poor and disabled, and all-around champions of white Christian supremacist Biblical patriarchy) maybe it’s time for conservatives and libertarian sympathizers to…
