hi, i was wondering what your stance on the hugh mungus situation a year back is? cuz looking through your profile i noticed you are a very avid feminist, and i was interested to know if you think in that situation the woman took it too far, or if she was fully in the right, or they were both in the wrong? :)
Very avid feminist. Much rights. Such opinion. Wow.
Sorry, it literally gets me whenever my blog is seen as very feminist bc it takes me back to an abusive ex who had a friend that saw the first page of memes and called me a “raging feminist” bc of it. I like rarely participate in ACTUAL protests or conversations bc I’m GENUINELY terrified of people, no offense. Thank you for seeing that, truly, I try.
Anyway, I don’t know if that’s my place to talk. I can’t link on mobile, but for those who don’t know, go to KnowYourMeMe and type in Hugh Mungus.
I don’t know if it is my place to talk, since the entire thing was born from Black Lives Matter, and I am very white. To my knowledge the BLM movent was gettig press, but no one was talking to black people. This is why I don’t think it is my place to have an opinion on this meme. I’ve never used it bc I think it’s kind of a gross excersize of male dominance and also a smear campaign against those of us who try our best to spread social justice. I hate anykind of “lol look at this fughin SJW” bullshit, and that is what that meme was and is, so I don’t support it. Social justice is important. It brings issues to light, and gives marginalized people a voice, we NEED it.
As for the ACTUAL SITUATION….well….I am personally scared of men. They have ONLY ever made sexual or romantic advances towards me, without permission or even knowing my name. I am VERY aware that I am an object to them, so I am scared of them. And if I was talking to a man about a serious social movement and he said his name was something very likely pertaining to his dick size “Hugh Mungus.” I would honestly, from past experience, be terrified. Which should be a show of just HOW MUCH power a guy can have. And that, in my opinion, isn’t something to joke about. Those of us that have faced so much male grossness in our lives, that we straight up don’t talk to them, shouldn’t be ridiculed for our fear and discomfort. Men should be held accountable for making us so afraid and uncomfortable.
