The power and privileges between men and women in this society are NOT EQUAL in many areas.  This is why throwing back these sexist tropes on the face of men works.  The REASON IT WORKS, is because you realize how fucking ridiculous it is when it is used toward the non-marginalized group.  It’s like when you tell a straight couple, “Stop talking about your opposite-sex wife! Think about the children!”

That doesn’t mean you’re being heterophobic to that straight person, does it?  No, of course not, that would be fucking ridiculous.  (THERE!  There is an analogy that actually works!  See, that wasn’t that hard, was it?)

That said, people sometimes need to be shaken up and have their bad behaviour reflected back to them before they realise the consequences of their actions and how they can affect others. 

No shit.  That still doesn’t make this at all sexist toward men.

not objectifying men just because that’s what they do all the time and so deserve it.

And no one is actually objectifying men with this whole stunt, anyway; they are just repeating back what is told to women, which is not the same thing. So your argument is even more ridiculous.

For the record, I think this is hilarious because it points out how ridiculous objectifying women in this way is, but I don’t know if it’s THAT useful — we all know we’re not *actually* objectifying men.

It’s a humorous way to look at how women are treated, which isn’t a bad thing, but it’s not like, ground-breaking or anything.

It’s like shooting pro-gun advocates to make them aware and prove that guns do hurt people.

That said, people sometimes need to be shaken up and have their bad behaviour reflected back to them before they realise the consequences of their actions and how they can affect others. So I get the point and agree with the issues but don’t really agree with the fighting fire with fire idea. I prefer to just not objectify women and to enact change through proper behaviour – not objectifying men just because that’s what they do all the time and so deserve it.

I could probably be more eloquent than that but what do I know? I’m just a dumb blonde.

Also see my comment about Rand Paul above. His appearance was comedy gold. I wonder if Anonymous will nail him for making neonazis part of his campaign like his dad did.

Rob (the editor) admonished my comment up thread, so bzishi jumped in and started grandstanding.

“Why did you repeatedly lie to the American people for weeks and weeks about this event?” “It doesn’t matter! I accept full responsibility, and now that I’ll do nothing let’s move on!”

Stupid people, on the other hand, are a renewable resource.

If you acknowledge any of these questions and still stand by your first post, then the extraordinary evidence will have been provided.
