Hi there. My name's Aaron. I'm a secular Humanist, professional sick kid. 21 years old in rural Michigan.

 

Double Standards

raging-blue:

Music video with half naked men dancing: funny
Music video with half naked women dancing: sexist and objectifying

All man’s college: sexist
All woman’s college: empowering

MRA: sexists and rape apologists
Feminists: empowering

Woman checking out a guy and calling him hot: normal
Man checking out a girl and calling her hot: objectifying

Men’s rights: a joke
Woman’s rights: a serious issue

My boyfriend tries to take a bag into a store: sir you have to leave that by the door. We don’t want anyone stealing anything
I try to take my purse into the exact same store: go right ahead miss

Man pays for dinner: What a responsible man, taking care of his girl
Woman pays for dinner: What a horrible man she has, making her pay!

Man calls a woman a slut: Objectifying
Woman calls a man a douche: “You tell ‘em, girl!”

Man goes into Victoria’s Secret with his girlfriend: “Ew, pervert, why does he have to be in here, go outside who cares if its raining!” (yeah that actually fucking happened)
Woman goes into a sex store: “Wow so cool, she isn’t afraid to come in here!”

Gay men: gross
Gay women: so fucking hot

Man cries: weakling
Woman cries: she must have broken down, poor dear

Man hits a woman: disgusting sexist pig
Woman hits a man: He must have provoked her

Man rapes a woman: “what a pig! he deserves to die”
Woman rapes a man: “Well, he had an erection, he obviously wanted it. Not rape.

Woman is in the military: "Wow, what a brave courageous girl”
Man is in the military: He must not have been smart enough to do anything else

This post embodies my entire viewpoint of Feminism, that viewpoint being disdain. Because according to the views of so many of these “Quasi-Feminists”,

Hip-Hop music videos are horrible and objectifying women! But the song and video for Raining Men, well that’s just funny! A woman can check me out, but as soon as I look back, I’m a disgusting pig. If my girlfriend pays for our dinner, I’m either a penniless bum or I’m a dick. Rapists who are women don’t exist.

If I were to ever slap my girlfriend across the face, she should call the police, end the relationship, and press charges. Rightfully so. But If she were to do the same thing to me, I probably just said something that offended her, so it’s really my fault and I should stop being such a little wuss about it.

You can’t accept the social injustices that benefit you, and at the same time, fight the social injustices that don’t. You either have to fight them all, or accept them all. This shit isn’t unique to feminism, I could say the same exact thing to any other kind of rights activist.

This is the kind of shit that quasi-Feminists don’t want to talk about, because it doesn’t promote their pseudo gender equality dogmas. Show this list to a militant feminist, and they will try to justify every point made. Feminists claim to fight for equality among genders, but the majority of this loosely organized group is only fighting for the rights of one gender.

Humanism > Feminism
