For strong womyn everywhere: "Internet Plus Equality"

[Gahars]

After Emma Watson gave a speech to the UN on the topic of feminism, it seems that the mysterious hacker 4chan threatened to leak her nudes.

...Except it turns out that this is was all the work of Rantic, a SJW viral marketing group.

Blimey!

EDIT: I should really stop horsing around, but...

Dictators? Acting like bullies? I'm shocked, I tell you, shocked!

What's even better is that players have to choose to act as "bullies." It's entirely possible to play the game as a benevolent leader (in fact, it even rewards you for doing so with more money, less uprisings, etc.). He's upset at the game for how he behaved in it.

Hmm. I have long pondered the problem that if material to be rated/censored is so corrupting then how do the censors avoid becoming so corrupt. It seems it may have taken hold in reviewers/journalists, which means they were partially right when they said that computer games cause imitations in real life... that would also handily explain the corruption in games journalism thing as well.

It all makes sense now.

While we're posting quotes, I remember reading a quite good one - "Feminism is a movement that tries to achieve equality between the sexes by focusing solely on the issues of just one of them", or something to that effect. It made me smile, how painfully accurate, eh?

They don't. They sacrifice themselves for the greater good.

Sounds like someone just failed Bio 101.

And here's something almost as sinister as our cruel enforcement of Mondays.

But it is a social construct, mainly by virtue of it being a linguistic construct. Sure, biology would tell me that there are two biological "sexes" when it comes to organisms that reproduce via gametes but that is only a construct, one typically enforced by the physics and chemistry that underpins biology when it comes to the continuation of the concept, but still a construct.

I fear I am not making my point clear though, to that I end I must resort to poetry

Hey, everyone, look! It's a social science nerd! Let's social construct some snowballs and pelt him!

It's a construct in the sense that the language we use shapes our understanding, sure, but not in the "Biology isn't real and there's no such thing as sex" sense that these types like to parrot.

But Gahars, there is no such thing as sex in their lives...

Leaving aside your awfully presumptive use of pronouns, I mean you might have got lucky on this occasion or at least hit indifference, your point with the snowballs, things constructed from a selection on wonderfully unique pieces to make a whole, warranted further examination and may ultimately serve to demonstrate my point.

What a bigoted thing to say. Merely being in the presence of someone and feeling that connection is a kind of sex if you believe it to be.

I would contemplate age of consent but I am not sure that is appropriate.

I'm surprised the post wasn't filled with "I'd tap that" comments - that would be the first thing I'd type if I saw tumblerites getting upset over it.
