deductionhunters:batter-sempai:myreasonswhyihatetmblralot:check-your-privilege-feminists:“The amount of posts on this site that are like ‘ALL GIRLS HOT MOST BOYS UGLY’ is disgusting and if you reblog any of them without any sort of commentary, never ever claim yourself to be a proponent of body positivity or anything like it.“ - commanderabutt​This is why people won’t take feminism seriously. For a while I thought these were supposed to be posts trying to boost the confidence of us females, but they made me uncomfortable, until I finally realized that they were stomping on the confidence of another group to make our gender seem more superior. I support feminism, but this is very wrong. Just because some males are cocky and sexist doesn’t mean that you can stomp on everyone’s confidence, including those with low self esteme from abuse or disorders, as a whole.This was the very first set of tags I saw on this post and you know what? You’re a fucking asshole. To clarify:I and many other guys on this site suffer from the same self-esteem issues and body negativity that can cause such huge problems for women. I’m never told anything to counter those thoughts, and while my appearance is not commodified in the same way that the looks of women are, I’m still shown the tall, chiselled, musclebound hunk aesthetic that people expect me to live up to in every form of media. I am far from that and so it’s difficult for me to come to terms with it.So then I come on this website where people buzz around about body positivity and equal treatment like a hivemind. But, lo and behold, despite the supposed supportive nature people on this website claim to have for those who have such problems, at just about every turn I’m told that I’m part of a disgustingly ugly gender group and I should feel bad.So if I can’t be happy with my looks in reality and I don’t have any support otherwise, what am I to do besides hate how I look for the rest of my life?But nah, it’s fine, feel free to keep telling me I’m ugly and foul. It’s funny, right? -- source link
