Feminism Faux Pas
00:10:05

|
| A bunch of stupid things happened this week and not one of them was interesting enough to do an entire video on on its own. | |
| So here's a quick roundup of the top stupid things that have happened this week. | |
| First on the list is this retard who decided to collect her menstrual blood and paint a portrait with it. | |
| But not only that, she decided to paint her own face with it. | |
| A move that I can tell just by her expression is something she's wondering why she did. | |
| But not only that, this is a shit painting. | |
| She doesn't go as far as to call herself an artist, which is a good thing. | |
| But apparently the concept of this cyclical piece is to literally face the shame women bear when concealing their menstruation. | |
| Oh, you know what, love? | |
| Just go and free bleed everywhere. | |
| Just go for it. | |
| See how much space you get on the train when you're free bleeding everywhere. | |
| You'll probably have the entire carriage to yourself. | |
| Honestly, just look at this. | |
| Is this not a sign of a woman who is absolutely desperately insecure about her position in the world? | |
| Is this not a sign of a woman who has no fucking idea what she's doing with her life? | |
| Anita Sarkeesian posted some emails she got on Twitter asking her why she never responded to her criticism. | |
| And instead of responding to their criticism, she proceeded to ignore it. | |
| Why are you afraid to respond to Thunderfoot? | |
| To which she says, it's especially amusing that this misogyny-laced email is unironically signed, see you soon, Milady, tips for Dora. | |
| Who gives a fuck? | |
| Why don't you respond to Thunderfoot? | |
| She responds to more criticism by saying that she gets so many emails like this, she could publish a coffee table book full of them, but she can't reply to a single one because she's a fucking con artist. | |
| Honestly, everyone, stop talking to her. | |
| Especially after we've seen the valiant efforts of TAS Kopathic, who really does try to actually address her in a mature and sensible way. | |
| He says, why don't you try explaining why you never address your detractors? | |
| Obviously, Bob Chipman, mangina of the century, chimes in with, ha, right, because that wouldn't be like trying to explain the fossil record to creationists. | |
| Doesn't fucking matter, Bob. | |
| We're not talking about that. | |
| Shut your fucking mouth. | |
| He carries on by saying, look, are you going to say that feminism is dogmatic and has no scientific basis, just blind belief? | |
| To which the stupidest man on earth replies, it is not her job to educate you, bro. | |
| Which i it's so unbelievably stupid given that it is precisely what she got $160,000 to do, you fucking spastic! | |
| In other news, Marvel decides to bow to the social justice cowards and their howling, screaming, pitchfork-wielding cyber mobs and recast Thor as a woman. | |
| Now, there are a few things I would be pissed off about with this if I gave a fuck about comic books anymore, which I don't. | |
| So, the first is, fuck yourselves. | |
| Don't give them an inch, because nothing will be good enough and they will take a mile, and it still won't be good enough, and they'll want more, And more, and more, and they still won't be happy. | |
| Fucking ignore them. | |
| You made your money from, frankly, straight white teenage boys. | |
| The social justice tards will never, ever give you resources in the same way. | |
| And I honestly think these demographics are mutually exclusive. | |
| You're not going to get both. | |
| You can have one or the other, but you can't have both. | |
| And trust me, the second some new fad comes along, these social justice tards will be out the door. | |
| Marvel, you're shooting yourself in the foot. | |
| Secondly, if I were a woman, if I were a woman and I would look, you know, I'd like comics, but I'd like comics with women in them. | |
| Even though there are comics with women in them, I'd like more, because nothing's ever enough. | |
| I wouldn't want you to recast an existing character. | |
| That would be insulting. | |
| That would be fucking insulting and fucking retarded. | |
| Because it would mean that I am not good enough to have a new character with an original backstory. | |
| It means I would have to cult someone else's character, which is obviously not fair in the slightest, but it's beside the point. | |
| You know, Thor isn't a fucking title, it's not an epithet, it's a name. | |
| It's a name of an existing character. | |
| He doesn't stop being Thor just because he doesn't have the fucking hammer. | |
| Anyway, good luck to them. | |
| I'm sure it won't be stupid as all shit. | |
| And I'm sure that Thor's popularity is just going to go straight through the roof. | |
| Sorry, Thorina's popularity. | |
| Feminists were obviously up in arms against a website called Women Against Men, pointing out that feminists seem to have decidedly anti-male bias, and they seem to be actually attacking men. | |
| Wait, no, that's not what they were against at all. | |
| They were actually against a website called Women Against Feminism, which is an organization that seems to be growing rapidly in popularity. | |
| This is probably because feminists have absolutely no sense of self-awareness, no sense of how they come across to other people, and no idea that they are literally attacking men, which is why there is a website called Women Against Men. | |
| Our old pal Jessica Valenti straw mans it perfectly by saying, punching Gloria Steinem inside the bizarre world of anti-feminist women. | |
| How do you make sense of the women who think the hobby lobby decision is great? | |
| College rape is inflated and pay gaps don't exist. | |
| I suppose you would have to not be insane, Jessica. | |
| Because it sounds like these women are looking at the figures and the facts and saying, hmm, it's not quite as feminist are misrepresenting it, is it? | |
| But you know what, according to Jessica, you just don't let them stop you. | |
| Don't let reality get in the way of your delusions. | |
| She says that every so often, one woman engages with me on Twitter who is against women's suffrage. | |
| That's just the perfect opening line. | |
| That's right. | |
| She believes women shouldn't have the right to vote. | |
| That's actually not right, Jessica. | |
| That's not right. | |
| She's not trying to rescind the right to vote. | |
| She is not trying to rescind suffrage. | |
| She's saying that you've got it, now you can stop. | |
| But she hoped it was a fake account. | |
| But no, this anti-suffrage enthusiast, which is like calling, I don't know, someone who's against Barack Obama a racist, runs a blog where she writes about religion alongside recipes. | |
| The only thing we have in common is a love of beats. | |
| Fucking disgusting. | |
| When men are against feminism, it's frustrating, but ultimately predictable. | |
| Groups with power have always been loath to give it up. | |
| Oh, I'm just thinking about that homeless guy on a bench that I walked past on the way home. | |
| His power was unbelievable, and the women who walked past without even giving him any money were just like, oh, look at this guy's privilege. | |
| Male privilege all over him. | |
| You fucking idiot. | |
| But when women come out against gender justice, which I love it. | |
| I love that they actually think that they are arguing for justice. | |
| It feels worse. | |
| No matter how fringe. | |
| Oh, yeah, fringe to be realistic about the figures. | |
| The rise of the anti-feminist woman is not just baffling, but a betrayal. | |
| Oh my god! | |
| I was taking the piss when I was saying things like, women who are against feminism are betraying feminism. | |
| But these people actually believe it. | |
| Obviously, women aren't a monolith. | |
| Hang on, fuck yourself. | |
| You just said it was a betrayal. | |
| If women aren't a monolith, then she's not betraying anything, is she? | |
| And neither are the issues that they care about or believe in. | |
| But anti-feminist organising is based on a deep hypocrisy and selfishness. | |
| Oh my fucking god. | |
| An ideology built to assure conservative women that as long as they are doing just fine, other women will make do. | |
| Do I need to point out the hypocrisy of that statement? | |
| And they're putting up roadblocks to progress right in the middle of a renewed feminist awakening with retrograde sexism that's ultimately not too different to that of their male counterparts. | |
| Really? | |
| Are they really being sexist? | |
| Are they really being sexist when they say, you know what, maybe this is going too far? | |
| Maybe there aren't as many rapes on college campuses as you're saying. | |
| Maybe, maybe we should pay for our own shit because we do earn our own money. | |
| Maybe, maybe, just maybe the pay gap is down to, you know, women making their own life choices. | |
| But no, you know what? | |
| This is retrograde sexism. | |
| This is that's what it is. | |
| Last week, for example, the US Supreme Court's hobby lobby decision left most women's groups livid. | |
| Because they're militant, rabid feminists, obviously. | |
| Terry O'Neill, president of the National Organization of Women... | |
| Sorry, is a man president of the National Organization for Women? | |
| I mean, that just says everything about the laziness of feminism, doesn't it? | |
| Called it a shocking disregard for women's health and lives. | |
| Oh no, how many women have died because of it? | |
| The co-president of the National Women's Law Centre, Marcia Greenberger, said the ruling gave companies licensed to harm female employees in the name of religion. | |
| How many female employees have been harmed? | |
| How many have died? | |
| How many martyrs have been sacrificed for the cause? | |
| Is it just me, or are all these women who are against feminism really attractive? | |
|
Bruised And Bloodied
00:02:02
|
|
| I mean, these are the sort of women I would have thought would be concerned with cat-calling or harassment or walking home alone in fear. | |
| Not the troglodytes that live on Tumblr. | |
| And last but not least, in fact, this is by far the most offensive way of portraying domestic violence I can imagine. | |
| I am shocked to the core by this. | |
| Bruised and bloodied Disney princesses remind us that domestic violence can happen to anyone, except for men. | |
| When did he stop treating you like a princess? | |
| Remember that handsome prince from The Little Mermaid? | |
| Who's prepared to spend his time working with this poor girl who can't speak because there's something about her that he finds so magical? | |
| It's ironic that when she got her voice back, he just started beating the crap out of her. | |
| What about this heroic Disney prince who decided to fight a dragon for his true love? | |
| Yeah, it was inevitable that he was going to start punching her in the eye in the lip a few times, smacking her around. | |
| She probably, you know, refused him sex or something. | |
| He is after all an entitled man, and an entitled man will beat the crap out of a woman if he thinks he deserves sex. | |
| And my personal favourite Disney prince, Aladdin, the lovable street urchin with a heart of gold. | |
| When he saw Princess Jasmine, he was like, I'd hit that. | |
| And he did, repeatedly, because she couldn't keep her fucking mouth shut. | |
| This whole thing is just the worst thing I can imagine. | |
| All of the men in these Disney films, these Disney princes, are decent men. | |
| So to imply that they will inevitably end up beating their wives that they fought so hard to to rescue or to impress or whatever is just I mean it's there's no end to it is it there's no end to the demonization. | |
