EPTI'm tired of writing, but you get the point. I dislike feminists that try to use tropes as their crutch.
btw, the last song "baby it's cold outside" she states is a man date raping a girl. it's absurd.
Ugh feminism....

Imagine if there was a zerg unit called "Feminisk". Doesn't do any real damage, it just makes noise to annoy you. | ||

I can't find a job as a bartender at most places because i'm not a pretty girl for instance. That's not equal! | ||

So feminism still has solid grounds. Some feminism, like the one in OP, is dumb and counterproductive tho. | ||

Just take it with a grain of salt and laugh - there are legitimate feminists who try to deal with real problems and there are extremists who hate men - sometimes because they've had bad experiences in the past, sometimes because they're crazy... Pretty much this, and this girl falls in line with the crazy kind. Okay at the last long she's got a point I gotta admit. (except for that she thinks people will actually be affected by the song, if she hadnt so bluntly pointed it out, I would never have known anything more than its a christmas song). | ||

What you're repeating is dishonest propaganda from those that seek to trivialize the astounding amount of male privilege present in the world. Trust me, as a man it is awesome to be a dude.

Man, I remember that MtG story. There was a crazy amount of misogyny from the Magic fan base. It was really embarrassing and I'm the sort of guy who got super mad when they changed the card format. | ||

I can't find a job as a bartender at most places because i'm not a pretty girl for instance. That's not equal! We're very far from equal dude. Your feeling is definitely not close to actuality, just look up any statistic dealing with this. You can choose, say, pay rate for men and women given the same job title, length of time it takes for women to get promotion vs. men... number of women in upper echelons of government compared to lower levels of government... | ||

I'd love to see an experiment done in which 50 girls and 50 boys were all given the choice of toy to see which would be chosen. i don't think this is a bad thing...you can give them the choice, but most of the time they were follow that "trope" as the lady states. | ||
