“you shouldnt expect a woman to tolerate being patient with misogynists” doesnt really apply if said misogynists are like 11 ans 12 year old boys are you guys fucking insane. those are children. you cant fucking treat children like theyre destined to grow into monsters thats not how combatting bigotry fucking works
“was he radicalized by youtube or did he just suck” IF HE IS TWELVE THEN I AM INCLINED TO BLAME THE YOUTUBE TEE BEE AYCHE. you cant seriously be grown adults bitching about the emotional labor of talking to the 10 year olds in your life about misoginy like. would you rather leave his peers to deal with him? the little girls who are going to be the targets of this behaviour if it continues? or are you going to be the fucking adult and do what you can to work with these kids. little boys are not monsters and treating them like they have the misogynist male socialization plague is just going to make things worse.
if you tell a child he will inevitably be a dangerous monster and is therefore fundamentally irredeemable, YOU ARE THE ONE RADICALIZING HIM
actually wait I wanna make this post. it is true that society shames all sexual activity (especially the sexual activity of queer and/or fat people) and it is also true that society expects a certain level of sexual “normalcy” (heterosexual monogamous sex for procreation and intimacy purposes). these are both true and in fact. part of the exact same problem.
the idea that oppression has never contradicted itself is a bold faced lie. nothing is ever simple. there’s always a loophole or crossover or whatever. it doesn’t have to make sense, it just has to hold certain groups of people down
Bro just don’t be a sexual deviant and nobody cares. Nobody cares you’re gay but when you start wearing bondage gear at a pride parade then it’s a problem.
incredible. I said nothing about kink at pride and somehow you made it about that.

Art Critic: the skull in the corner is artfully placed on the periphery of vision to symbolise the omnipresence of death, important thematically to the artist’s conception of life and mortality.
Actual Artist: aw shit, I got all this negative space, guess I’ll stick a skull there that looks pretty rad.
I painted a copy of Vermeer’s Girl with a Pearl Earring for a class in college, and when I displayed it for review the professor was like, “Are you making a statement about materialism by not painting her wearing the actual earring?”
And that, kids, was the first time I ever cursed in front of a teacher.
The painting is called The Girl with the Pearl Earring, and I forgot. To paint. The damned. EARRING.
