Oh baby, yeah that’s it.
In case anone hasn’t noticed, I haven’t actually tackled the OMGsporkitdeadSPORKITDEAD! Village Voice piece yet.
That last post, that was just my initial reaction to some of the comments in the various threads that the peice has spawned in the blogosphere, and now that the various threads have had an opportunity to mature somewhat, I have to doff my hat to Twisty again, the number of tools and straight guys who she offended is most impressive, she has earned her Oppressed Minority To Watch Out For status ten fold, and I can only parrot bitch|Phd in the Boobalectemy ’06! thread over at IBTP: Twisty, I would so mess (around) with you. (though my hetereosexuality would now doubt leave me unable to mess you properly). Any lesbian who can make so many heterosexuals so incredibly uncomfortable with two very short posts, deserves a crown and an ermin robe which she can wear as she rules over the earth as its queen.
But enough about Twisty’s amazing ability to turn the heads of easily swooned het women, what about the Bussel peice?
Well where should I begin really? The gawd aweful picture of a pasty white pseudo-goth crack whore wannabe, her eyes sort of not quite squinting at the camera, her body resting back on her elbows because her boobs are about to pop out of the butt floss she accidently put on the wrong end of her body. ETA: I had no idea this photo was of Bussel, I thought they’d gone out and picked some poor woman, slapped half a ton of pasty white makeup on her, shoved her into that godaweful top (which, no matter how you try to spin it, is a really bad “Look at me! I have Tits OMGWTFBBQ!!!1!” top, sexiness is synonymous with natural, if you look like you’re trying to be sexy you never will be) and then got her to pose both awkwardly and, by the looks of it, painfully, in the asshole photographers basement, it looked like it was trying too hard to go along with a screed about sex-positivity from an anti-feminist who has no idea about sex-positivity, but does lurve herself some abuse.
In short, the photo is just perfectly suited for the writing, you can see that Bussel is one of hte best “my soul squirts out of my pen when I write” writers around, unfortunately she is an idiot who sold her soul to the often unconciously maintained system of, frequently sexualised, abuse and degradation that adversely affects women over men, which I call the patriarchy (hope that answer your question Bitchlab) so that’s not quite a compliment
Seriously, where does one begin tearing this sort of crap apart when that’s the accompaning photo? The caption to which is nothing less ironic than “no one has the right to tell you how to fuck”, which is precisely the sort of caption you should have under a photo of a woman who’s obviously been jammed into that faux-vampirella top (Cuz it’s sexy, bitch) and told to find the most ungodly uncomfortable position possible (cuz it’s sexy, bitch) by the photographer, who one can only assume had somewhere better to be that day because MAN, does it look rushed. But remember kids, being horribly abused and demeaned by the porn industry is “empowering”, a word that is quickly losing what meaning it once had thanks to its current use as prime anti-fem doublethink, doesn’t matter what it is these days, if it’s abusive and disempowering, some anti-fem is calling it “empowering”, as bussel is detirmined to prove over and over again
Oh sweet chocolate Cthulhu, I just wrote two paragraphs just on the photo that goes with the piece, God Help Us All…
No wait, can’t start on the actual piece yet, there’s more horrors on the page aside from the actual main peice.
For instance here’s two of the ads* in the side bar:

*HeadDesks* yes folks, we have officially reached primo grade DEEP HURTING, a piece about how liberating sucking the patriarchy’s cock is, unsurprisingly, bracketed by ads for Prostitutes Escort Agencies, because whoring is fun and always entirely voluntary!
Soooo anyway, on to the piece itself… (more…)
