Just because something's not a widespread threat doesn't make it any less a bad thing. Treating people like shit based on their gender is stupid no matter how you slice it.

And excuse me for using the only term I could think of at the time. Though I suppose 'rabid feminist' might have been a better choice.

Well, yes, being an ass is generally a bad thing. That's not the issue I was addressing. I want to know why, in a discussion of sexism, someone always has to bring up the "women sometimes hate men, too!" thing. In a discussion of racism, would you pipe up with "but once there was this black guy who used the term 'white devil'"? If a friend complained to you about homophobia, would you bring up that gay bar in Miami where they don't allow straight people?

No, because it's not relevant. What's more, bringing up those outlying circumstances takes attention away from the real, systemic problem of racism/homophobia/sexism and could make those problems look less serious than they are. It's unnecessary and even harmful to soften a blow that deservedly hits hard.

Also, we rabid feminists prefer the term "radical feminists." We're a little sensitive about our foaming-at-the-mouth issue.

Fine, it wasn't relevant. But you could've simply said 'that's irrelevant' rather than going all Snark-Snark Discussion Police on me.

Nah, I think you needed to know why it wasn't relevant.

Excuse me, but could you not assume I'm a Dumb Child who needs everything spelled out for them? All s/he had to say was "that's not relevant to the discussion" and I would've gotten it.

Way to be condescending, there.

Thanks, it's something I'm good at.

That's hardly something to be proud of.

Pff, who cares what you say, you're a girl.

Aww, lookit the cute troll.

Tits or GTFO :')

Old meme is old.

Every repost is a repost of a repost.

irrelevant meme is irrelevant

would you like to try 3 for 3?

And for that, you get a cookie.

...oh, drat, I seem to be out of cookies. Would you settle for a stale Tic-Tac instead?

And presenting, feminists being cunty even toward each other!

Great way to disprove the secret, girls.

Want some popcorn with that snark, little mousie?

Right, because guys are never dickish to each other. It's only the icky girls who are mean!

Gee, is that all it takes to be "cunty" these days? The bar has seriously been lowered. I didn't even get a chance to use profanity. D:

The fuck you talking about?

Because they must blind you with their superior reasoning skills and make you realize how wrong you really are. Duh.

Clearly!

Oh my god, I think I'm in love with you.

I believe in my women's issues classes we called them "radical feminists?" I always thought it was a good term.

*nods* That sounds about right. :)
