This is interesting - if the ads were sexist before what makes them less sexist after the “change”? If they are still sexist, why are they acceptable after the “change”? Are they acceptable?

I would argue, no.

But the troubling thought is that this post was tagged feminism. So the conclusion I jump to is that this brand of feminism is geared not so much towards gender equality, or the eradication of sexism, but more towards woman placed in a position of power over men; switching roles, as it were.

Seems counter productive to the whole movement. Vilifying one group generally does not ingratiate that group to a cause or idea. This isn’t social justice, this is social vendetta.

It’s satire you moron.

It’s showing men that don’t understand how their insulting gender role views are insulting to women.

One people can’t understand why something is degrading unless it’s done to them

^^^^this.

This issue here isn’t whether or not either of these posters are sexist now or before. The point is that men are so privileged that instead of having empathy and realizing these ads aren’t funny they immediately start screaming reverse sexism or some bullshit like that. Alot of men would find these old ads funny or even state some moronic claim that this was just how it was back then and it’s better now. No, like racism it’s just far more covert. Take the MeToo movement. Everyone’s on board until some dudebro’s fave show is canceled because the star of the show decided that his dicks needs trumped the rights of a women to her own body.

you can tell a lot about a person by looking at their hands. for example, if it’s a skeleton hand then they’re dead

To name or not name him

I want to post a #MeToo post on a few social media channels. I’ve already written what I want to say and I actually call my harasser (remember, the perverted guitar teacher) by name. On one hand I think: “yes, do it. Let people know what he’s like.” on the other hand I think “No don’t, that’s not a nice thing to do. It happened in May of 2015, too long ago.” I also don’t want people the think I’m looking for attention or anything.

But then again, by not naming my harasser I’m actually protecting him even though I’m the victim. I’m choosing him over myself. Aahhh I’m confused and don’t know what to doooo. Bleh.

Maybe I’m overthinking this.

Any advice?

About Say Anything..

It's a cute movie but Diane telling her dad that she slept with her boyfriend for the first time. Give me a freaking break, who does that? And then saying 'she attacked him', really...??

Ugh, getting a rejection from a possible job is so discouraging -.-

So sorry this is still happening. Have you filed a police complaint/restraining order?

Thanks (: But no, I meant that it’s still trigger even though all that crap happened 2,5 years ago. He stopped talking to me when I told him that he was sexually harassing me. Thank god!
