(Anonymous) 2012-10-20 02:35 am (UTC)(link)Or...actually, that's not right. Usually the men are such things as the aforementioned "Tits or GTFO", whereas the women are telling the men that they just aren't allowed to belong. Which means straight-forwardness apparently bugs me more than harassment and, in some cases, passive-aggressiveness.
Err.
I might officially suck as a human being. I still have great dislike for any woman who says men aren't allowed in a large fandom space that is not explicitly defined for a certain gender, though...

You don't suck as a human being but I would say it is slightly misogynistic to hold women to a higher standard of conduct.
Truly, it is not about "men do this" and "women do this" but rather, "there are people who use gender to make other people feel unwanted or attacked". That is wrong. The gender problem is horrible for both sides. I would say it is worse on women because they are considered part of the minority but that does not mean men's problems are insignificant.
So you should be fighting for equality of all. You know, I have heard feminists make the argument that their fight is a two sided coin and everything they try to do to make themselves equal also helps alleviate problems faced by men. However, you are free to make up your own opinions on the matter.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-20 03:01 am (UTC)(link)I thank you for it, immensely. Thinking is important. Still a bit blargh, though. :^)

And thank you for talking with me. I have enjoyed our conversation. If you ever wish to converse with me in the future or wish for any links to feminist sites I would be happy to oblige.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-20 03:28 am (UTC)(link)And since this has actually ended amiably instead of turning nasty the way F!S often seems to (thank you for that, too!), I am going to go to bed before I manage to put my foot in my mouth or something.
And hopefully saying F!S is prone to arguments isn't going to be the thing that gets me into troubleno subject
Oh no, that is why half of us are here. Wank can be fun sometimes. Your description is apt.(I personally prefer to stick to debate, ranting, fake fighting, and reading other people's wank. So no worries.)

But you just used the word feminazi, because yes, wanting equal right is exactly like killing six million Jews. (Note, this is sarcasm. I don't want anyone taking that seriously.)
But, no, mark all feminists as man-hating monsters if you wish. I'm going work for equality for both genders instead, and yes, in the name of feminism.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-20 03:09 am (UTC)(link)And I too often take it personally when people use causes I believe in to try to justify behavior I abhor.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-20 03:19 am (UTC)(link)Good chance that this is where I'm coming from, too. Although it still disturbs me that I may just have realized that I'm at a point in my life where "midset of seventh-grade boys" is apparently ok with me.
I don't think it's uncommon to feel that way. When it happens to me it almost feels like they're making a mockery of said causes. Even though there's a good chance that they might feel the same way about me. Which then recapitulates to mockery, and so on and so forth.
