Feldspar

Whoopsie! I am a Lesbian and just thought

that everybody was hip to the fact that *queer* has been reclaimed by LGBT crowd. My bad.

My point was simply that Females are NOT a minority group like MRAs, Gays, Lesbians, Bisexuals and Trans*people; females are The 51%.

And I for one am tired of being treated like some ghetto-ized special interest group when I belong to the majority class.

Iverglas goes on to say this:

Quote
Feldspar appeared to be a woman-identified lesbian. This might put her at odds with the LBGT-identified women we have heard from in the past.

I think that perspective is one that should be explored here. I think that is the issue raised in the post hidden in this thread. I also think Feldspar was not the most adept at posting coherently, let alone non-confrontationally, of course.

Okay, three things: Evidently a minority group can claim or un-claim words at will. That said, if they claimed the word "fork" what would we then call a pronged eating utensil since we would no longer be able to ask for one without being accused of gay bashing. At what point did they decide to NOT claim "queer" since queer studies have been part of the college landscape for a couple of decades?

How dare she take away my second class citizen status! Who the hell does she think she is? Just because we're 51% of the population doesn't mean we aren't oppressed! I just got a brand new Coach wallet knock off to carry my new 2012 victim card.

Lastly, and perhaps most confusing: if feldspar is a woman-identified lesbian does than mean there's such a thing as a man-identified lesbian and what the heck would that look like?

What's funny is going to the Man's Group and reading them making fun of the feminist group and the drama there right now.   :fuelfire:

 Gentlemen, The Jig Is Up. They've figured out the grand conspiracy that is The Patriarchyâ„¢.

I suppose our evil secret penis-plans couldn't remain hidden for too long, (nothing that size could, wink wink nudge nudge right?) and of course now that numerous highly influential internet bloggers with readership well up into the hundreds have laid out in no uncertain terms the contours and nefarious abilities of The Patriarchyâ„¢ to run everything and steal womyn's fem-energy for our nefarious patriarcho-phallic usage (I've got a fully illuminated blow-up sex doll attached to my motorized keg tap, right now!  ) I'm thinking that as ingenious doodely doods perhaps the next thing we ought to do is some serious rebranding for The Patriarchyâ„¢.

Maybe a logo, something friendly, like a dick with a smiley face on it.

I don't know, brainstorm.

You can't say jig. That's racist.  :rotf:

Warren DeMutton is their resident pr0n junkie.

he will scream for hours if the non-shaving, non-beer-fetching females object to rape porn or any of the "niche" fare.

Proof positive that if women ruled the world there would be fewer wars.

Really, I don't know what feminists are doing using a forum created and administered by three men.

I wouldn't touch that entire snakepit with a 100-foot pole, would you?  Snarling, sniping, vicious feminists, intent on extracting their own petty vengeances and enacting their own agendas.   
<Shudder>



That Iverglas chick is a hoot.  Viper.  There are like five of these amusing bullies that are caricatures of the most bitterest of women one could imagine.   Meanest specimens I ever witnessed.   How these women live with themselves is beyond me since I can't imagine anyone wanting to be around them.  Seabeyond, Iverglas, Boston bean, violet crumble, remember me,  and redqueen.  Can't be much meaner than those creatures.

People do concentrate on gender too much sometimes. Hating men because they're men and so on.

Neoma, I'm sorry again, but you are apparently not getting something.

"Hating men because they're men and so on."

Why do you think you can say things like that? Who at DU, let alone in the Feminists forum, has done that?


"People do concentrate on gender too much sometimes."

It is the FEMINISTS forum. It is about WOMEN. What the hell else is the group supposed to concentrate on?????

Neoma, either YOU agree with the SoP, and with making the Feminists group SAFE for discussions that fit within the SoP, or you should consider resigning as co-host.

Defending assholes like mistertrickster when they attack the group is not the job of a host.
