skank

Slut-shaming.

You can be very sexually active without being a skank.

Still a loaded term, on par with slut. Stop defending your wrongdoing.

LOL.

You're an odd duck, proud of your misogyny.

Wrongdoing

*snort*

Taking note, world eater and velvet mace are cool with slut-shaming and making light of eating disorders.

You're killing me. I actually can't tell if you're trolling or serious %D

Yeah... "Shut up! I'm right and you're wrong and so stop refusing to admit I'm right," isn't the best retort.

lol, SJW, ONT_P is --> that way

da

tbh this sounds like the argument that you can be a sexually active without being a slut because slut means cheater or something.

no.

People still do use skank as a slut-shaming word. So eh. Your definition =/= everyone's definition.

Your definition isn't everyones either.

And intent isn't magic~

Okay, I'm just going to laugh forever that people using SJ terms for this. When Bratz came out a few years ago the SJ folks were up in arms about it because it oversexualized children and gave shallow, unrealistic ideas of what being a girl was about and was basically pedo-tastic (especially the toddler dolls, omg -- babies in diapers and fishnet stockings!) There was a whole bruhaha over Barbie's unrealistic waist and bust measurements that lead to Mattel saying, "wow, you are right," and changing the dimensions to be marginally more realistic.

Now it's come full circle. These dolls are primarily for 3-10 year olds, not 20 somethings. If they were marked to adults and sold somewhere other than the pink aisle, I'd probably be cool with them. I saw my 8 year old neighbor kid admiring one of those Monster dolls because it was thin, like she wanted to be. My reaction to that was oh, fuck, no. Super duper thin does not mean feminine.

So my reaction will always be yuck to them.

I don't like the dolls either (for p. much all those reasons), but you keep trying to defend your own slut shaming. Christ. It'd been better to say "hey these dolls are promoting sexualization of children and unrealistic body images, probably not good role models for being feminine!!" or something not offensive.

but you didn't and that's why everyone is getting pissed at you

not because you insulted the dolls

MTE.

Not "everyone" --- just you, you crazy diamond speshul snowflake thought policer, you. Shine on baby, shine on.

lol I like how someone not anon agreed with them right before your comment

it's not like people actually have been slut shamed by the word skank, or have had eating disorders bef-

oh wait yeah they have

chill bro, chill.

(you're either a troll, or don't actually know what thought policing actually is. telling someone they're being offensive =/= thought policing)

And I don't give a shit what you think of the dolls. It is NEVER appropriate to trivialize mental illness or to call a woman a "skank" based on her appearance. You can bawww all you want about the dolls, BUT DON'T BE A DICK WHILE YOU'RE DOING IT. Is that clear enough now?

Your response implied that the dolls were 'yuck' because they were 'skanky'.
Skanky = promiscuous. Saying that promiscuity = 'yuck' or dirty is slut-shaming.

If you said "yuck, this reeks of over-sexualization and shallowness" or whatever, no one would have a quarrel with you.

ITT:

THE MINISTRY OF TRUTH HAS SPOKEN. VELVET MACE AND WORLD_EATER ARE DOUBLE PLUS UNGOOD AND WILL HEREFORE BE UNPERSONS.

lol

u mad

Seeing your comments make me think of one of those strange conspiracy theorists.

Hahaha, yes. The people in this thread want to treat everyone like the proletarians in 1984, that sounds logical and sound /s

Am I the only craaaaaazy woman out there who thinks promiscuity should be looked down on regardless of gender, and that clinging to our right as feminists to be promiscuous makes the whole feminist movement look bad? Promiscuity isn't a feminist issue, because it isn't just women who should be ashamed of being ridiculously promiscuous. People in general should avoid that shit. I'm not saying outlaw it or anything stupid like that, but yes, a huge percentage of the population looks at promiscuity for EITHER gender as immoral, unsafe, ill-advised, immature, or some combination of those 4.

TL;DR - Whether or not you approve of promiscuity is not a feminist issue, stop making it one.

NA Skank is a pretty loaded term. I think you could have worded that differently, mate.
