The comic plays with the idea of 'a wolf in sheep's clothing (An aesop fable about how sometimes people who may look nice might actually intend to deceive and hurt you) for comedic effect. Like in the original story, the wolf enters the flock with the intent to eat the sheep and bring it's kills back to the pack. 'he he he they don't know I'm really a wolf.' In the second and third panel though, the sheep are open and friendly to the wolf, complimenting it and offering to dance and graze in the meadow and the wolf is charmed by them. The punchline is in the third panel where it's revealed that the wolf was so charmed it abandoned it's pack entirely to pretend to be a sheep forever, subverting the original story.
I don’t go on Facebook very often, and when I do it usually doesn’t recommend me anything, but WOWZERS. feels like we’ve come full circle in the “almost getting the point but not really”
hey um gyns did you hear? Yeagh. Post about 3 men helping with shopping cart?? Systemic misogyny GONE. systems of male control POOF. Men good always. Men amazing. Radfems should go outside and meet 3 shopping cart men who are so kind and cute. Then they'll change their evil Minds.
”Feminists think the goals of Tra’s and MtFs are unconnected-“ and you spent an entire book giving me really good reasons to continue to think that. This book says that the reason males are misogynistic is their fear of being perceived as feminine, therefore feminism should focus on helping males out of that brain hole. And the thing is… Feminism has tried that. Libfem bullshit has BEEN babying men and blaming women for males cruelty for supposedly being the people who won’t let them hold purses or whatever the fuck.
Has it worked? I wouldn’t say so. I look around and still see women suffering. I think the reason males are misogynistic is because they benefit from a hierarchical system that treats women as property. I think this happens regardless of any secondary factors. I’ve seen too many feminine males defend pornography to think defense of pornography comes from some place of self loathing instead of their desire to get off no matter what. The goal of radical feminists is female liberation from a system that sees them as the property of males. The goal of ‘trans feminism’ is the liberation of femininity from the shackles of masculinity. I can say that’s a fine goal, but they are so fundamentally different that they require different movements.
Obviously young republican men being more likely to think men than women face discrimination in our society is dumb and stupid but we really gotta work on the fact that a QUARTER of young democratic women think men face discrimination.
i guess intersex people are only worthwhile when you can use them as a pawn?
We always have the whole "Listen to sex workers" "Listen to POC" etc which of course is brilliant, listen to the victims of an industry/culture, but sometimes all it takes is to listen to the benefactors of an industry and people still don't wanna do that
“I’d like to really show what I believe the men want to see: violence against women. I firmly believe that we serve a purpose by showing that." Bill Margold, Porn actor and producer, in reference to the porn industry, 2007.
They aren't quiet about any of it. They never have been. It's amazing how some people still manage to pretend they don't see and hear it.
“ teehee, I don’t want to fuck her! That’s all that’s valuable to any discussion regarding gender, sex, and gender based violence” girl get off the crack pipe. Yes, Hunter Schaffer is beautiful, but will never be a woman or understand the intricacies of living and being raised as a woman.
like i really hope you understand those people really really REALLY believe WHOLEHEARTEDLY that you can escape misogyny and oppression if you try hard enough. and if you can't, that's because of your lack of effort. it is your fault, your individual fault you're oppressed. don't ever think about reaching out to other women and helping each and fight against sexism together. do NOT gain class consciousness, only think about yourself. you're NOT like those weak women, they deserve the oppression but not you!!!!!!
A U.S.-born citizen was arrested in Florida on Wednesday and charged with illegally entering the state as an “unauthorized alien.” Twenty-year-old Juan Carlos Lopez-Gomez was detained for a day at the request of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, despite his mother producing his birth certificate and Social Security card at a court hearing.
Leon County Judge LaShawn Riggans inspected the birth certificate during a court hearing on Thursday, confirmed it was “an authentic document,” and said she found no probable cause for the charge, the Florida Phoenix reported. But a state prosecutor said that because ICE had asked the local jail to hold Lopez-Gomez, the court did not have the authority to grant his release.
by the way if men seriously “can’t help it” and “can’t stop himself” from sex offending in literally any scenario, he should be put down like an uncontrollable animal
here’s your reminder that a lot of the violence against women and homosexuals in africa is perpetuated by white christian missionaries.
white christian missionaries are responsible for the death penalty of homosexuals in uganda. they keep going over there and reinforcing the believe of homosexuality being a sin.
it’s their fault that some african girls and women have experienced unfathomable acts of violence — by constantly influencing them to engage in purity culture.
death to christian missionaries and anytime they go to a country or tribe where they are not welcome and get killed for it, i laugh and smile. :) remember to persecute your local evangelical fundie. <3
I have preestablished biases and beliefs about the world, I acknowledge that and am willing to adjust with new information shared.
