alivianaomi: patriarchyrules: alivianaomi: patriarchyrules: Apparently, the patriarchy has gotten so oppressive lately that it is now forcing these poor women to go out dancing at the club. Oh, the horror. Oh, the humanity. Fucking hell, and people wonder why feminism isn’t taken seriously. lol wait, do you think the mra is taken seriously? LOL I’m not an MRA, couldn’t care less about the MRA. Nice try though. Nice try at what? I didn’t accuse you of being MRA. Are you a woman who goes to clubs? Because when I go out dancing I want to do just that: dance. But every.single.time. there is a guy who thinks he can come rub up on me and touch my body without permissions, And when I tell these guys to stop, it is not only hard for them to actually do so, but I’m also called a bitch. So yeah, that’s oppression. Hahahahahahahahahaha. Wow, I don’t even know where to begin with this nonsense. First off, if you weren’t insinuating that I was an MRA, why the hell did you even bring it up? My original post said nothing about the MRA or even any of their talking points about male rights. It was simply pointing out the abject stupidity in a sign that is stating that women “have" to dance to songs that they feel degrade them. If you really can’t understand how fucking stupid that is, then all I can say is I feel sorry for you. Of course, your definition of “oppression" kinda has me leaning toward the idea that maybe you really don’t comprehend how stupid that sign is, so let me try to explain “oppression" to you in words that you might understand. Here’s the thing: CHOOSING to go out to a club that is apparently full of assholes is in no way you being oppressed. It’s you making a conscious and free choice, which is pretty much the exact opposite of oppression. Someone calling you a bitch, or any other swear word for that matter, is not oppression either. That’s just someone being a rude asshole. It’s fairly hard for me to believe that EVERY TIME you go out dancing, some asshole gropes you and calls you a bitch for not letting him grope you, but if that is indeed true, WHY THE HELL are you going to that club? That’s not fucking oppression, that’s you being an idiot. The world is full of assholes, that’s just how it is. It doesn’t mean you’re being oppressed, it means you’re living in the real world and dealing with assholes is part of it. So out of curiosity, how did you deal with it? Did you kick one of these fuckers in the nuts when they groped you? Did you get one of your friends or a group of friends to kick their asses? Hell, did you even tell the bartender or bouncer and at least get them kicked out of the club? Or did you just decide the best strategy was to yell PATRIARCHY! OPPRESSION! MRA’S AREN’T TAKEN SERIOUSLY! on Tumblr? Because I gotta tell you, that’s not a great strategy for dealing with assholes at all, so good luck to you if that’s all you came up with. I think you might need it. -- source link
