ObPissy: Pissy

It's 2007. I'm sure it is.

Why, oh WHY[1] are there still otherwise intelligent and reasonably well-socialised men who think that "if you want me to take you seriously you have to can you please take me by the hand and direct me to some feminist resources that aren't all man-hating and won't hurt my feeeeeelings" is a PERFECTLY SUITABLE THING TO DEMAND ASK?[2]

I am pleased to note that before I could even hit reply he had already been called on his sloppiness. By a man. [3]

I mean, so I did it. Because I am a sucker.

There is always that tiny chance that it's a serious question. Or that someone ELSE was wanting those links. I wasn't terribly chirpy about it, but I did do it.

Though starting off by demanding a course of Feminism 101 tailored to one's own delicate ego on the grounds that one has only ever encountered (insert bumper-sticker-level hostile definition of feminism here) is NOT the way to persuade most people of that. It is my impression that we gave men access to Google at the same time we let them have shoes[4].

So why the Hell am I still DOING THIS?[5]

[1]Rhetoric.

[2] Blood.

[3] Love

[4] Joke.

[5] Rhetoric again.

Random PSA

Because someone just asked me to clarify what I mean when I say that I am a radical feminist.

I mean that I believe that we require and I work for a deep, far reaching rethinking of the current gender paradigm leading to social change that affect the roots as well as the surface.

I am, in other words, not a "liberal feminist" or a reformer.

It has been drawn to my attention, however, that there are individuals who think I mean that I am a member of a group that supports cutting off men's penises and hiding them in trees. This is a phallusy. :)

We regret any inconvenience caused by this musinderstanding. Carry on.
