Activity #5: Go for a drive together

Those of you who are not regular readers of Twisty Faster will still want to pop on over for this one.

In such a society, where a woman is a member of the oppressed sex class, her performance of sex in a film which is then consumed by paying customers to satisfy their prurience, this is not even remotely a politically neutral act. Porn — gay, straight, bi, live-action, animated, or ‘feminist’ — is the graphic representation of the oppression of the sex class. Until the sex class is liberated from male oppression, porn can be nothing else, no matter how many fun feminists claim it empowerfuls them…

When you’re already oppressed, it is, in fact, impossible to volunteer for oppression. A woman is a member of the sex class whether she “chooses” it or not…She may believe otherwise, but her belief does not alter the fact that patriarchy — a social order predicated on an oppression to which she is already subject — is real and in effect and entirely beyond any unrestricted control she may wish to exert and only too glad to welcome her as a team player and sign her up for the rewards program.

Someday I’ll be that sharp.

It’s 2am, my closet is full of water, and my cat is peeing everywhere uncontrollably. Kinda seems like those 2 things could be related, yet they’re not. At least my emergencies present themselves with thematic coherence.

Remember when we all pitched in for that dead horse, labeled it “Rebeloution Modesty Survey” and then took turns beating it? Oh, that was fun.
But we haven’t heard from Sultry McHawt lately.

Ms. Sultry McHawt puts the sex-ay in modesty!

Let’s check in…hey look! A respected author and real role model has put in his two […]

Note for the sarcasm impaired: I actually love Rainbow Girl’s post, just like everyone else. Jesus freakin’ crimeny, people.
I’m not sure if I’m at all pleased with this sparkling post of Rainbow Girl’s. I mean, here the rest of us are telling all the Nice Guys and MRAs that of course they […]

It wouldn’t be spring…

…in any of the neighborhoods I tend to rent in if I couldn’t hear the couple next door shouting at each other. At least this neighborhood has horsies.

Around my office today, a lot of co-workers were wearing these:

It’s heartwarming to see Americans showing support and solidarity in the face of horrible tragedy. 33 people are dead as the direct result of senseless violence. It’s truly, deeply awful.
So I appreciate the folks who were wearing a ribbon. But I’m a little […]

According to a Gender Genie, junk science is a woman, marc is a woman some of the time and a guy the rest of the time, and I appear to be all man.

Cocktails may make fruit healthier.

Adding ethanol — the type of alcohol found in rum, vodka, tequila and other spirits — boosted the antioxidant nutrients in strawberries and blackberries, the researchers found.

Keep up the good research, guys!
