I am soooo freaking pissed off right now!!!!!Every time I go on Facebook, I see these stupid Facebook relationship statuses and they're ALWAYS about how the girls are in the wrong! What the freaking heck?!
Delete your account. Problem solved.
I just deleted about 650 friends over the weekend.
I think you have 'littletune' syndrome.
A few psychology studies have indicated you can only effectively maintain ~300 relationships in your life.
I've heard of that and I thought it was between 180 and 230.
I've heard of that and I thought it was between 180 and 230.Anyways, I'm not going over that number.I would have less friends, but I need answers for take-home calc tests.
what the? I have 28 friends on facebook, and they are all well, friends! I don't get that sh*t you're describing. I never ever understood how people can have 300 friends
And are people still using FB? Really?
Feminism kind of died as a mainstream thing in the last 2 decades, and now stupidity is back as a main charachter of teenage girls (and unfortunately not so rare also in adult women)...and I guess it always was common for the teenage boys. Youngsters these days also have so much time and devices to express their stupidity.
feminism is far from dead, it's just evolved, as have we all. I hope.
I just think it's kind of depressing, after so many years of the women's movement, that so many guys still do this ridiculous macho posturing, as if they're so insecure in their masculinity that they have to put women down. In fact in some ways it seems to be getting worse since the arrival of the internet. Yes I know a lot of these guys are very young, and at a vulnerable age blah blah blah, but these attitudes often extend into their twenties and beyond.I'm not on Facebook, but I often see really horrifying comments on YouTube (which isn't moderated). Racism and homophobia too, like you wouldn't believe. There, that's my rant for the day.
I dont have a facebook. I have soundcloud.
Every time I go on Facebook, I see these stupid Facebook relationship statuses and they're ALWAYS about how the girls are in the wrong! What the freaking heck?! And if they're not about relationships, they're about how girls are all a bunch of sluts what the freaking heck?!!?!
pregnant dog and hoe are synonyms for girl what the freaking heck?!?!?!?!!? Every time I hear someone say that I wanna freaking punch them in the face and pull out all their teeth! Stupid punks!And all of the pictures I see are about how girls dress all slutty and make stupid duck faces what the freaking heck?!?! And then there's a guy below trying to act all pretentious saying something along the lines of, 'you can get a guy if you dress normally and be yourself. Don't worry about make up' or some other self righteous bullshit like that. It freaking pisses me off!!!
And what the heck is up with guys crossing their legs?!?!?!?! Who freaking cares! I cross my legs. Wanna know why? Not because I'm gay, but because it's freaking comfortable!!!!!!
Why the freaking heck can't I freaking show emotion huh?!?! You're all just a bunch of stupid punks!
And why the heck in every manga I'm reading, the girl is always the one put in sexually vulnerable positions?!?!?! What the freaking heck?!?!??! And sometimes the cover of the chapter is just a girl sitting there in a sexual position and saying something stupid that has absolutely nothing to do with the freaking story!!!!!
Why the heck can't I play piano all day!
I'm soooo mad!!!!
You gotta plug it in before you can make toast.
. Sure, it's dumb, but I don't see it as a huge problem--it's just teenagers' way of dealing with all their sexual frustration and hormones. They'll (probably) grow out of it.
Umm... don't be so (probably) sure. Research indicates that sexist attitudes form very young, during childhood and even during babyhood. If the culture sustains it, then these people will most likely become sexist as adults.
This is why some frat house have a "rape room" and sexual harassment and rape is rampant in the military. These people don't grow out of it, they just use it rape women.
Nice non-sequitur. You're implying a few things here. First, that frats and the military attract sexists. Second, that rape is a crime primarily motivated by sexism or committed by sexists. It'll take a bit of convincing to get me to believe that.
Yes, military and fraternities/sororities attract sexist because these institutions are fundamentally discriminatory based on sex.
In countries that are more equal on gender, rates of rape and sexual harassment is also very low such as the Scandinavian countries. In countries where gender equality is non-existent, rape and harassment is very high such as in middle eastern countries.
Sororities are also discriminatory based on sex, yet they don't appear to have any increased rate of rape over other groups (as far as I'm aware--correct me if I'm wrong).
Same with a group of mothers in my hometown who meet regularly to discuss parenting.
Did you ever consider that the reason the rape rate is high in the military is because the military attracts people who like violence, danger, and masculinity, and those types of people, who are attracted to these primal instincts, are also less likely to resist other primal urges? All-male prisons (which also consist largely of people who like violence and danger) also have high rates of rape, and they aren't raping women in there.
That's more an issue of governmental sexism than individual sexism.
Your argument was that sexist people commit rape, but your evidence points more towards sexist societies have higher rates of rape. While you could make an argument that the reason sexist societies have higher rates of rape is because sexist societies have more sexists, and sexists are more likely to commit rape, that point does not clearly follow from what you argued.
I'm pretty sure that it was only between about 70 and 90 maximum. Anyway, I only have 68 friends on Facebook.
Sororities may have higher rates of date rape (they are the ones getting raped, not committing it) because they promote the stereotype of women, and that means behaviors must conform to such stereotypical standards.
But this is not about gender, it's about parenting.
I agree with this. Also because military culture promotes masculinity and demoralizes women-typical traits.
Government is created by the people, not the other way around. If the people are sexist, then their government will also be sexist.
I would claim that one reason for this is the segregation of the genders in mixed-gender schools. The segregation isn't intentional, as in single-sex schools, but is done behaviorally by teachers treating males and females differently.
I hope you're not implying that the women's actions are causing them to be raped, because I know a few people who'd have very little nice to say to you after that.
Men are also often parents (at roughly the same rate as women), but they aren't invited to the group.
I would agree with your statement as well. However, the military demoralizes women-typical traits not because it is sexist, but because women-typical traits have no place in war.
Certainly that is true as a whole, but the government doesn't represent all the people, only the majority, as well as select plurality opinions. I was talking about individuals who are sexist being more likely to commit rape, even in a society that is as-a-whole non-sexist and intolerant of rape.
Could you explain this a little more? I've found in my experience in schools that male-typical characteristics are actually the ones teachers hate the most. I've also read many places (and noticed myself, although obviously I cannot be impartial) that schools cater more towards females than males, especially at lower levels.
A female who holds sexist views will alter her behaviors to conform to the stereotype of her gender. This includes submissiveness and passivity in front of males. These behaviors are interpreted by males as being sexually permissive. Thus, if the male has the intent and the opportunity, he will rape the female.
YES, I AM! I would never have said this until a few months ago until I started researching gender and sexism. There's a reason why some raped women are called "slut", "she deserved it", "look at the way she was dressing/acting", etc. It's because of the way they acted that got them into that position to begin with.A female who holds sexist views will alter her behaviors to conform to the stereotype of her gender.

Men probably don't care about improving their parenting skills.
Also, these women-centric parenting groups are probably just an excuse to get together and chit chat and compare themselves to other mothers, not actually improve their parenting. If they really wanted to improve their parenting, they'd study psychology of parenting.
That's a sexist statement based on sexist ideals. Women can train to be as skilled as men in combat.
I agree with you and I was speaking about sexism committed by women teachers against male students. While my elementary school years were sexism-free, I've recently witnessed these acts by sexist female teachers. The results were that the boys behaved in ways that most people would describe as "demoralized". They acted demure, quiet, shameful. The girls the opposite: boastful, proud, even arrogant and privileged.Negative Stereotypes About Boys Hinder Their Academic Achievementhttps://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2013/02/130212100554.htm
My statement was meant rather sarcastically, because certain actions do make a female more likely to get raped. Yes, as ajspiano points out, it clearly still isn't the moral fault of the victim, but there are actions that, while they should not be necessary, can reduce the risk of being raped.
Absurdly sexist statement.
It's not necessarily about being better parents, but more about just sharing experiences as parents.
Of course they can, but not by keeping traditionally female attributes. "Traditionally female" attributes include things like being caring, nurturing, kind, and, unfortunately, submissive. Being submissive is the only one of those traits that is useful in the army, but that type of submission is a different type.
Ah, glad to hear it. That was my experience throughout (public) elementary school. Luckily for me, despite the fact that these teachers had completely destroyed any desire I had to learn, I continued to try to do well because that's just what I like to do. (Private) middle school, that all switched and I had a much more positive experience. I couldn't tell you if that was related to elementary vs middle school, public vs private, or what, but things started to improve drastically then. It's also worth noting that I had all female teachers up until middle school.
How do you see how many friends you have? (On FB)
But then i actually went to look at who they were and some of them i didn't even recognize! Don't know how that happened...
Unless you change your punkass mindset, you'll never know what it's like to be with an attractive woman. Grow up, kid.
And .. you need to read different manga. I bet you read Shounen manga right?Have you seen Nodame Cantabile?Have you read Tramps Like Us aka You're the Pet aka Kimi wa Petto aka きみはペット?Well I could give you a whole list of manga I enjoy that don't have women in random naughty positions saying randomly stupid things.
