For strong womyn everywhere: "Internet Plus Equality"

[Foxi4]

If you can't tell someone's gender from reading an article on the Internet, then you're the worst kind of sexist. Either that or you're on your period.

Pretty sure that English only differentiates between genders in the third person singular, so... yeah - you actually can't tell someone's gender from his/her personal writing.

OMG so heteronormative

Privilege abounds.

Was this really the best way to prove your point?

Did they not... rehearse this? At all? That was a painful scene of abject failure.

They took the quote "Ginger Rogers did everything that Fred Astaire did, except backwards and in high heels" too literally.

Damn homosexuals discriminating against women! What the fuck is wrong with the world!

If you think about it, being gay is the most sexist thing imaginable. It's too men deciding to shut women out of the sexual process entirely. A gay couple has twice the male privilege.

And trans men? Gender traitors. They're nothing more than women abandoning their kind and trading in their femininity for a seat in the patriarchy.

I mean, duh.

So the logical conclusion from that is twofold

1) Being a filthy teenager that screws anything that moves, and some things besides, is not discriminatory practice.

2) All that lesbian/x-way porn and seeking out women that might have well as sprung from it may have been leading towards an enlightened state, or perhaps even a manifestation of it.

This is what is known in the trade as vindication. My thanks for assisting in demonstration of that point Tom Bombadildo.

It discriminates against asexuals. God, FAST, check your privilege

I did -- asexuality is a spectrum, see also things like gold star lesbians, and I clearly included inanimate objects within that. Next you will be telling me I can not be a vegetarian if I eat fish or chicken.

Remember, kids: Racism = Prejudice + Power

Oh, wait, you mean that Asians are, statistically speaking, the wealthiest ethnic group in the United States? Uh, uh, shut up whitey, you're just blinded by privilege!

In a way, I get the shift in thinking. I can understand why Suey Park doesn't want to be judged by the content of her character.
