Is feminism still needed in the U.S.

[Pagan_Patriot]

Well no matter... Let's say for argument's sake that women had 10x higher murder and auocide rates than men. Would it still mean we should ignore the thousands of dead
Men a year?(could be in the tens of thousands by now. But I know it's a few thousand at least). Let's just have one big anti-violence capmpaigne and hit 2 birds with one stone so that no one is left out. Violence against men, women, gays, lesbians, etc. It's all still violence.

And @ what Me Myself said, agreed. We have a nlack president... Ok, we proved we're not a racist country. Is voting for a woman preaidwnt reallt what we need to prove we're not mysoginistic?

And about Julia Gillard, idk her policies but I find her attractive . If a small minority of the population wants to poke fun, so what? I've heard some of the worst stuff about Bush #2, and he's a white male(not very young either. Ull always have people who criticise. No one is free from criticism.

It's like Adam Carolla says about racism. "Of course there's racism. There's everything. There's tuberculosis and smallpox, but it doesn't men it's a plague and everyone aroundyou is infected".

Who is saying men should be ignored? Its great having generic campaigns but sometimes you just gotta side step and tackle specific issues.

The comments coming about julia has nothing to do with her job and all about her being a woman, sexual comments, gender insults, etc. No necesary. I dont recall people making comments about Kevin Rudd and his male attributes.

I am sure you have racism and sexism. Sexism towards both genders BTW.

Lol. Well she's an attractive lady. I'm sure some sickos did say some comments to her that have to do with her physixal features. But what can you really say about a guy? I guess some girls can say, "he's so hot. Id do him". Idk lol. But personally, I see men being more vocal about that stuff. What have people said her about her!? Just wondering.

 

[Me Myself]

:no: .

What you mean no? There is definetely racism and sexism everywhere o.o

Seriously:

Does violence against woman act protect everyone or just protects women?

 

[Pagan_Patriot]

Hahaha .

Pretty sure it's just for women. Us men can still get the daylights knocked out of us, but that's why God invented bara fpr ;p. So we can beat each other senseless.

Anyone who sees how gamer culture treats women will understand quickly why feminism is still needed.

I think I read somewhere that it also protects lgbt people some?

But I assume somehow it still protects heterosexual men right?

They werent excluded from it or were they?

I am honestly asking.

Ya but what can we do? I agree that games like that are bad, but what can I do? Try to get those companies shut down?

The reasonable thing to do is to make different games?

You cant do much if you are not a game designer

I do wonder how many game designers are women.

I've no idea.

 

[Pagan_Patriot]

Eh... I used to listen to a lpt of rap, but I just did my own personal boycott for the very reason that it degrades women(and other things). I also don't buy games that are like that. Though I did wanna get Lolipop Chainsaw haha. But I didn't...

I just don't get involved. I disagree with what they do, but I love liberty too, so I don't try to stop them from selling.

What on Earth is wrong with lolypop?

Its a cheerleader killing zombies, its perfect, whats your problem with lolypop?! D:

I think that is the one. I was pleased at this when it came out and disgusted by some of the comments that high ranking Australian officials were making and probably continue to make. Not bagging on Aussies though I am sure u.s. Is just as bad.

 

[Pagan_Patriot]

Well... If she was real, I'd sorta wanna do her xd.

Edit: jk. It just really looked fun.

 

[Pagan_Patriot]

Man, Gillard is hot.

Get them to knock it off, for one thing. Trust me: we're working on it.

But I'm not just talking about their depiction of women. I'm also talking about the way girls are treated by other male gamers. Sexual hostility and harassment is a major problem in this subculture.

Ahem...
