Statement that someone "acts like men" is sexist in itself.
So, you're saying that men don't act in a certain way -- that there aren't gender constructions in our society? Be reasonable, for the love of God! And don't assume that just because you put a name to a difference that people percieve (whether it's true or not) instead of ignoring it that it's suddenly an "ism." If you had read the post correctly, you'd realize that I was not condoning the pidgenholing of feminity/mascuinity, but citing a popular perception of what it is.
Popular perception is irrevealant.
I'm not interested in what cattle thinks.
This popular perception
is sexism.
I don't care for gender constructions, despite the fact that embracing them makes finding a partner and friends easier.
I'm not going to tolerate someones stupidity and inferiority just because gender constructions tell them to be stupid and inferior.
Whenever someone wants to criticise a woman, they invariably insert a gender-based slur into their criticism. This is so the woman is damned any way she behaves.
I would say that biased people are biased against people that are of certain gender and they instert gender biased slur into their criticism.
Example:
I was talking with three girls and one of them started to put make-up on her face.
Since to me make-up=filth (literaly), I looked at her with slight disapproval.
They told me that they that wourld would be better if all man died.
Since my disgust towards make-up didn't have anything to do with my gender, it was a perfect example of gender based slur.
Another example are men who think that every stupid behaviour of various women is caused by the fact that they are women, not by the fact that they are badly brought up or inherently stupid as individuals.
I think that it's easier to live with someone that is stupid because he/she is male/female than with someone that is stupid as individual.
Behaviour in a man which is "authoritative" is described by those wishing to criticise the woman as bitchy, aggressive, domineering. Characteristics in a man for which he is admired, are not admired in a woman - by those wishing to keep the woman out of their territory, or make them be quiet. I believe we had a little example of this on this very forum, a few days ago!
Authorative=bitchy, aggressive, domineering.
Not, they are not admired.
People who are aserative is admired.
People who are authorative are rejected, loathed, hated, feared and very unhappy.
Please let's not have a line of argument suggesting that women are biased against men, and men are now suffering awfully at the hands of nasty women who have taken control of the world. As to the suggestion that women are taking over the world, and earning more than men - I WISH!! Damn, that'd be great! No more having to fight the same battles over and over again, no more having to put up with slurs based on my gender, end of the abortion debate! Bring it on!
Now you are authorative
and sexist.
I think that we all need to get rid of identyfying with gender.
Personally I don't care who rules, women or men.
To me they are all usurpers that try to enforce their false laws upon me.
I don't care who they are as long as they are weak and too busy with squabling among themselves to create something constructive.
Subhumans, is what they are.
Any man or woman who tries to gain political power is stupid and corrupted by definition.
Personally I think that a good president should listen to metal, have long, wear black jumpsuit/fatigues and be antitheist, gender is irrevelant.
