Where did all the feminist/hipsters come from?

Not even when she costarred with Dana Delany.

Dana Delany then - Tombstone: Yay.

Now?

Yay. Dammit.

I would be more shocked if you were white, everyone on srk is black.

How about Dana Delany Light Sleeper? You’re watching the movie, engrossed in the drama, then BAM. Surprise pubes.

It’s already an awesome movie, so the surprise pubes aren’t quite as crucial as, say, the surprise topless Olivia Munn in Magic Mike. But it’s still nice that they’re present and accounted for.

Wow, this thing’s alive again and people are back at it. Man…I did not miss this thread.

He spent YEARS in a committed relationship with a black woman.

Probably a white guy.

Time and time again this is what happens: people argue what the word ‘feminism’ means, or at least argue against each other with different definitions of the word. goodm0urning has asked others to define what they think he believes the word ‘feminist’ means, and he’s been ignored.

Define what someone else believes a word to mean? Wtf does that even mean? lol

Fucking dudes doing so much verbal tapdancing that they broke an ankle and are just now awkwardly skipping around in pain.

When someone’s argument hinges on the assumption that they know more about your own opinion than you do, it’s a fair question and the meaning is obvious.

If that isn’t a sufficient explanation, you must have missed the “On yesterday’s episode of this wack-ass thread…” recap video.

Doesn’t even matter anymore in the context of thread.

Wasn’t it started initially cause of Anita?

We already confirmed the woman is a idiot who just added the word “feminist” as a shield for her bad arguments.

She’s not an idiot, she’s a scammer (a successful one judging by how much money she got). The idiots would be the people that gave her the money.

So would we classify those that donated as feminist?

I read it was mostly men who backed her…so possibly pussy beggars from the looks of things. Although Anita is probably in line to be speaking at a NOW conference in the future ha.

So Goodm0urning is a confirmed donor just like I thought.

shitty jabs aside, what would the standard definition of a feminist actually be? Not what YOU think it should be, what is it to the general populace/feminist community?

Wait a minute,

There was ANOTHER case of dumbass srkers forking over money to a girl? Was she an actual biological female this time?

Edit:

Just a little more on the feminist bit for @goodm0urning

So what say you good, are these writers only focusing on “extremes”? Are the people they talking about just “outliers” corrupting feminism? Or are there still serious issues in feminism that need to be addressed?

That aside, I think it’s safe to say branding anyone who advocates for parity between men and women as a “feminist” is stupid and pigeonholing people into an ideology(gies) that they may not subscribe to(and in many cases they don’t subscribe to it for good reason). I’ll repeat again, feminists do not own the discussion on gender and everything related to it.

I think the core of feminism is pretty consistent. Overall it’s about having equal opportunity and treatment among all genders. This extends even beyond the duality of male and female, since gender isn’t a polarity but a gradient.

I think where things get muddled though is when we try to define what that equality looks like. What exactly is oppressive, and if so, how should we fix it?

And just like any cause of social justice there are those who will try and manipulate and warp concepts like equality and fairness to fit their own agenda. It might be cause they want attention so that people buy their books, videos, or attend their conferences. Maybe they just like the attention. Maybe they want to alter the entire political system and take over the world.

But I think this is inevitable with any cause. Humans are opportunists, and if they see a cause as a way to further themselves they’ll use it. Simple as that. Personally I feel that you can agree with feminism on a fundamental level without getting caught up in all the drama and bullshit.

Um, but what is a feminist was the question. Anyone can want equal rights, doesnt make them a feminist right?

Fair enough Match, but having some agreements with feminism(equal treatment between genders) does not make one a Feminist. Yet feminists will try and impose a label on people who vehemently resist it, as the label does not imply to them, yet feminists can’t seem to grasp that.

Also yeah as you mentioned it gets complicated, partly because everyone’s experiences are different(as you should know better than anyone considering your field). Imposing universal experiences on a group because of a shared characteristic and not accounting for other factors(such as race/ethnicity/class/culture) is being both ignorant to differences in the human experience(and differences within groups thought to be similar) and sometimes outright dishonest(for self gain).

Actually, it does.

Seriously, sometimes I wonder what kind of distorted image people have of feminism.

^Actually, no it doesn’t. You cannot just impose identities on to people whenever you feel like it.

edit: For example, I don’t support Zionism, Nazis didn’t support Zionism. Me and Nazis agree on that. According to you rules that makes me a Nazi. Please.

So I guess that DOES make Anita and all those other people Bewd posted Feminist right?
