So women can wear beachwear all they want to football games, , but when men do it, they get kicked out? This is gender discrimination, folks. 

[mrbubblez9560]

But SERIOUSLY.

[tiberium-hyrule]

It’s a damn shame. Such a fucking stupid double standard. Like for example, I can see a commercial about some woman in a bikini eating a burger with some football announcers saying how hot she is; not a peep from anyone. But when that Joe Boxer commercial came out where the guys jiggled their “bells” to the tune of Jingle Bells a bunch of people call it inappropriate.

If we sexualize women, why the fuck not men too?!

[godtextremade-deactivated201504]

Or how about we sexualize no one bc that sounds better

[ladydreamspeed]

yes but I (like a majority of individuals) like sex quite a bit and we shouldn’t be ashamed or chastised for liking it and or showing people we like it.

"I need feminism because… I’m tired of being one of 3 women at my Fire Department!" No. I’m tired of third wave feminism being so obsessed with equality in every single aspect of life… that they are compromising the safety of others. Did you know that the Australian Fire Department has relaxed its fire service strength and fitness tests just for women because most of them could not even complete the bare minimum required for acceptance? That’s right. Women wanted jobs in the fire department, but because they couldn’t pass the required strength tests they threw a temper tantrum and as a result the government relaxed the entry conditions.   Do you realise what the implications of this are? Imagine a Fire Brigade being forced to hire a number of women because they qualified under the relaxed strength and fitness test (and not hiring them would therefore be discrimination). Now image that same Fire Brigade being called out to a building that is on fire. If there were unconscious occupants still in that building, the only chance of survival for them would be if a fireman pulls them to safety. Now what if one of the female firemen finds two, middle aged men unconscious on the second storey? What if she was one of the many women who could only pass the relaxed strength test because the original was too tough for her? After a long struggle she’ll eventually heave maybe one man out of the building before the fire consumes it… in the same amount of time it would have taken her male colleague to bring out both men. The Fire Brigade strength and fitness tests weren’t designed to exclude women… They were designed to ensure the safety of those in danger! They were designed to ensure that the rescuers were physically capable of rescuing!! Do you notice how men have little hips and big shoulders? Not only is it cute, it makes them 1000x more efficient at lifting and carrying heavy loads than compared to a woman of the same height and weight. That isn’t a result of patriarchy, that is the result of biology and human anatomy, so go sue Mother Nature if you think it is sexist. Lowering the strength standards has put innocent lives in jeopardy. It has nothing to do with real equality, and everything to do with something as trivial as male:female ratios in certain fields of service. Guess what? It is all because of deluded third wave feminists who consistently fail to look at the bigger picture and are so consumed by their victim complexes and their delusion of being oppressed by the patriarchy that they can’t comprehend the harsh reality of any given situation.  - fraudulentfeminist

^Same reason why combat units in our military should not relax their standards just so women have an easier time getting into those units.

What the FUCK

Why do some people have the ridiculous, idiotic, misogynist notion that women are not as strong as men? What the fuck?

That Fire Brigade Bullshit probably happened because the only women to apply weren’t physically fit.

But lemme explain to you a thing. Lemme explain to you ALL a thing.

WOMEN ARE NOT WEAKER THAN MEN.

WOMEN ARE NOT WEAKER THAN MEN.

WOMEN ARE NOT WEAKER THAN MEN

SOCIETY JUST TELLS THEM THAT THEY ARE WHICH CAUSES THEM TO LOSE CONFIDENCE, CAUSING THEM TO BE WEAKER.

Fucking hell.

My dad is a deputy fire chief, and he would have some choice words for the first two responses. He has more than 35 years of experience. He first started in an entry-level position and rose through the ranks, with about eight years outside of a fire department when he was working as a senior investigator and policy analyst at the Office of the Fire Marshall. He also makes a huge effort to hire women, which unfortunately meets with a lot of resistance within the department—by the same people who are also extremely against hiring people of colour or people who aren’t heterosexual. It’s funny how easily bigotry fits into rhetoric of “safety,” isn’t it?

Firstly, women firefighters have to pass the same physical exam as men. A lot men of don’t pass it. A lot of women don’t pass it. But any woman becoming a firefighter has necessarily fulfilled the safety requirements her fitness entails. A lot of women pass the test. Unfortunately, not a lot of women actually apply, because of shitty idiotic attitudes like this. And yes, women often do better on the tests than men. It isn’t the case at all that all men do better than all women who apply. Fuck you for suggesting that.

Secondly, guess what, dipshit. There’s a lot more than goes into putting out fires and rescuing people than brute strength. That’s why there’s a lot of education as well as psychological exams that go into hiring firefighters. And it might stagger you to realize that when you’re talking about entering burning buildings and other hazardous environments, having only a bunch of people with the exact same build and physique is a huge safety risk. You know why the (equally strong, equally smart) women on my dad’s force are such an asset to the team? Because they tend to fit places that men can’t—like through a schoolbus window last month that was inaccessible to almost every firefighter present. My dad says the most effective partners have complementary builds. This often means pairing a woman with a man, as it did in this case. This particular pair often works like this: the man helps move the woman to a place he can’t fit (sometimes literally throwing her through a window). If there hadn’t been a woman, the casualties would have been much higher. And that’s just one example. It’s never a disadvantage to have people of different shapes and sizes, all fully trained and all meeting the same physical requirements of the job, who can contribute differently. 

Thirdly, I’m assuming these idiots regard muscled young white men carrying women and children over each shoulder as the Platonic form of firefighter. But it may astonish you to know that in a fire, smoke kills first. You fucking asphyxiate. That’s one reason firefighters never carry people over their shoulder (the other being that it’s extremely dangerous to deadlift a limp body when you’re wearing 80 pounds of equipment—try doing that and you’re more than likely adding to the amount of victims who need to be rescued). If you hold people up to the ceiling, they fucking asphyxiate. Obviously. So you watch too much TV if you think that’s basically the job. How do firefighters evacuate victims from burning buildings? They drag them along the floor. This is so they don’t suffocate the victim, they lead the way first to safety, and they can fully fucking see and manoeuvre through the hazardous environment. I am not strong. I am not in good shape. I could never be a firefighter without some serious physical training (unlike a ton of other women I know, and like a lot of men). Guess what. Even I can drag my 200-pound, tall, male firefighter father across the floor.

You’re not looking out for people’s safety. You’re upholding misogyny and assuming you know what you’re talking about. We do need feminism in firefighting, because it’s a fucking cesspool of white supremacist patriarchal homophobic cisphobic anti-immigrant privilege good old boys’ club bullshit. It’s based on nothing but prejudice, and emergency services should fairly represent the population they’re paid handsomely to defend. Thankfully, people are slowly steering away from this. There are more and more women becoming firefighters, and last month, a woman joined a neighbouring department to my dad’s as a deputy chief. She passed the tests. She has experience and a sterling record. She also has a Master in Gender Studies, and she’s not very big.

[wagwias-is-gone-deactivated2014]

Bolded the part that points out you don’t even want a group of people who all have the same characteristics and strengths and motivations involved in saving lives for both obvious and less obvious reasons (well, if you’re a cisgender, straight, white, able-bodied, and/or otherwise privileged.)

Did you know that the Australian Fire Department has relaxed its fire service strength and fitness tests just for women because most of them could not even complete the bare minimum required for acceptance?

Aside from the fact that there’s no single “Australian Fire Department”, no, standards have NOT been uniformly relaxed. I quote from ABC News in Australia, dateline December 12, 2012:

BRENDAN TREMBATH (reporter): How hard was it to get into the fire service?

CHANTEL D’ORAZIO (female firefighter from Cranebrook [F]ire [S]tation in Sydney’s far west): It’s a long process. There’s online testing, so you go through about three tests, and then you get to the physical tests. That was probably one of the hardest parts.

BRENDAN TREMBATH: Chantel D’Orazio used to work in an office. To join the firies, she had to pass the same physical aptitude test as male candidates, which included carrying a 90 kilogram dummy and running up the stairs of a seven-storey tower.

Fortunately she was already fit from athletics and playing netball.

Chief superintendent Craig Brierley, the assistant director of recruitment and staffing, says this year they ran about six familiarisation sessions to help would-be recruits.

CRAIG BRIERLEY: And that helps both male and female and they can practise and build up their strength so that they can pass it.

This would seem to eliminate several objections of yours from the get-go. Women candidates are meeting the same standards as the men, which makes hash of your concern that women candidates who aren’t strong or competent are getting firefighter jobs. Not that such standards are relevant to modern fire training, by The standards are difficult and often require training, which would seem to indicate that standards have NOT been relaxed, at least in New South Wales. And, finally, applicants who need the training are being provided with training, whether they’re male or female. Once all of those factors are removed, your own remaining objection seems to be that women are being hired as firefighters at all.
