That right there is patriarchal brain washing. You have a responsibility to get over that shit.

Bullshit. Not everyone is a bold, dominant person who has the stamina to go out and wreck shit, and that's FINE. Not everyone NEEDS to be that way. That's why we have wish-fulfillment/power fantasy fiction, so that people can get the vicarious thrill of the adventures without having to do things they might not be suited or comfortable with. And no one "has a responsibility" to completely change who they are because patriarchy. 1/10 trolling, radfem troll.

No. That's why guys have wish-fulfillment/power fantasies. We have it in ourselves to be our own power fantasies, but fucking assholes in the media are robbing that from us and selling it back to us with an unhealthy side order of objectification so that men can also buy it from us and it leaves us all reduced each and every time this happens.

I am neither Trolling nor being a radfem. I am fucking angry and I have that fucking right.

What you are is a) ridiculous; b) CHOOSING to play the victim when there is absolutely NO need; 3) projecting your own refusal to own your personal agency onto OP.

NA So this is a "can't win" situation.

What total rot. Not everyone is a rocket scientist or an olympic athlete. And that is okay. Patriarchy has jack all to do with it

(Anonymous) 2015-12-05 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
A woman having and acting upon her agency, which is what we're talking about here, should not be considered rocket science.

(Anonymous) 2015-12-05 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
If a woman has the ability and inclination to be a super hero then more power to her. But not all women do. If they want to cheer the ones who have the inclination from the sidelines, or turn green with jealousy because some gal has the agility to leap tall buildings which is something their 5'2" frame and bad knees won't allow, then that's okay too.

I agree OP's selling herself a bit short. But in demanding she correct herself, you're hypocritical as hell.

I have and act on my agency, but I'm naturally a very timid person so it can take a while to get me psyched up enough to do or say the things I want to do. There is absolutely nothing wrong with being the type of person who is more comfortable being a follower, being passive, being timid, not being a go-getter. THAT right there is patriarchy: the idea that A-Type personalities are best, that being "beta" is wrong because it's "womanly".

Fuck that. There are aggressive women and passive men. There are passive women and aggressive men. Just because society values one over the other doesn't mean that the ones who are naturally as society wants them are brainwashed or weak.

I am a passive woman. I'm more comfortable with other people making choices for me, unless they're super important. I can take charge and I speak my mind, but it makes me uncomfortable. And that's okay.

I'm a feminist. I've been a feminist for a long time now. And what you're saying is fucked up.

That is all.
