Here’s the thing that pisses me off about the whole ‘friendzone’ mentality,

even above and beyond the totally fallacious idea that a girl owes you her romantic interest in exchange for being treated with basic decency.

It’s got this absolutely toxic undertone to it in the idea that of course you’re after her romantically, you were nice to her. It suggests that it would be utterly unthinkable for you to treat a girl as a friend or an equal if you weren’t actively trying to get into her pants.

What the fuck?

HELLO

JUST A SMALL NOTE TO LET YOU KNOW THAT GUYS AND FRIENDZONE GIRLS TOO AND THIS IS A THING THAT HAPPENS OK I KNOW WOW SHOCKING HOW DARE BOYS NOT WANT TO SHOVE HIS DICK IN OUR GLOWING SELF-RIGHTEOUS FEMINIST VAGINAS

GOOD DAY TO YOU

There’s a small but vitally important semantic distinction here; guys do not ‘friendzone’ girls. That is not a thing, because that is not a word that girls en masse use to describe the act of a man wanting to be friends with her. ‘The friendzone’ does not refer to one individual choosing only to view one other individual as a friend rather than as a romantic prospect. It is a mistaken belief that on a cultural level, women - in general, as a UNIT - pathologically deny men their ‘right’ to romantic relations with them.

If a man chooses to treat a woman as a friend, he is not ‘friendzoning’ her. He is being a friend.

I am a girl. I have been friendzoned. Out-right, in my face, friendzoned. This. is. not. gender. exclusive. 

I think you may’ve misunderstood my drive here - in which case, I explained it poorly, apologies.

No, of course it happens. Of course there are occasions where a woman’s romantic intent is misinterpreted as friendly and treated determinedly as such. 

The whole umbrella notion of the ‘friendzone’, though, is inherently, exclusively referent to when a woman does this ‘to’ a man. There is no larger quasicultural belief at work here suggesting that men-as-a-whole do this to women-as-a-whole, whereas those who bandy about the term  ’friendzone’ do seem to believe the reverse.

‘The friendzone’ isn’t about isolated incidents. It’s about the perceived 'rule’.

what’s making me most irritated about this is that in the pictures from this post, the screenshots are literally from the moment after gaga finished speaking and everyone is waiting for the translator to transcribe back what she said. they’re not fed up with her, they’re not annoyed, they’re literally just waiting.

lady gag can dress like this and not get much flack for it yet Katy Perry wears a Kimono on stage and is deemed a racist…. hmm…at least Katy doesnt make other human beings carry her places, and open car doors for her. Ugh im so tired of this stupid bitch.

Lady Gaga is literally IN Japan on a Japanese music show performing for Japanese fans and chose to incorporate legitimate contemporary Japanese fashion culture into her own style, and the only time she’s had “other human being carry her places” was for performance pieces like the Grammys arrival, where everyone carrying her was a paid dancer.

What Katy Perry did was racist because it blended Chinese, Thai, and Korean elements and called it “Japanese,” perpetuating this idea that all Asian cultures are interchangeable and homogenous, and also due to the fact that the dancers in the performance were in mock-kabuki yellowface makeup and executed choreography that simulated stunted “Japanese walking,” both of which are pretty pervasive and wildly inaccurate racial stereotypes.

Keep those slurs out of your mouth when talking about women and educate yourself about minority representation and cultural diffusion. It will get you far.

Brain teasers for egalitarians/equalists.

alexandraerin:

Say I’m 32 years old and you’re 22 years old.

In how many years will we be the same age?

Silly question, right? If you define aging as a process that stops at death, the only way we’ll ever be the same age is if I die first. If you don’t, then we’ll never be the same age. Every time you age a year, I also age a year. Since our ages increase at the same rate, you will never catch up to my head start. We have achieved a total equality of aging, but that does not change the permanent inequality of our age.

Okay, say I have a million dollars and you’re completely broke. If we both get a dollar a day, how long will it take you to catch up with me?

Now, this one’s even sillier, because if you have no other resources, your dollar a day is going to be eaten up by basic living expenses that it doesn’t quite meet, and I have an excess of money that can be spent on money-making opportunities that pay off far better than an additional $365 a year. I could literally burn the dollar I’m getting as part of our Totally Equal Income and still make more money in a year than you do just by sticking my money in the bank. 

But still: both of us getting a dollar a day is totally equal, right? It means we’re being treated exactly the same.

And now, final problem:

If we have a world that contains structural inequalities, systemic imbalances, disproportionate danger faced by some, and unequal access to resources and opportunities, is “treating everyone the same” really going to result in equality?

Show your work.

hammertimeheadcanons:

John is actually French Canadian and moved to Washington when his dad’s company expanded to America, and Dave loves hearing John talk in French, but John will only talk in French when Dave agrees not to hide his super southern twang. Dave doesn’t know it, but John is saying dirty things to him when he speaks French.

i wish there was a non-assholeish way to say “our friendship has run its course, you make me uncomfortable with your feelings and a lot of shit you do pisses me off bye”

sometimes there is no nice way to do things that need to get done, and thats okay.

Sheep used for wool are CASTRATED without painkillers, tails CHOPPED off & throats slit, just for a pair of UGG Australia boots, a wool sweater, or jacket: http://peta2.me/uggtober

People still buy these ugly disgusting things. Even when I tell them about the animals that died for their ugly boots they don’t care.

I don’t agree with ugg boots but this is actually bullshit.

1. Lamb marking (cutting off tails) is done so that the sheep doesnt get flyblown when summer comes. Flyblown is where flies lay their eggs near the anus of a sheep, when they hatch maggots eat at the inside of the sheep colon, infesting it with bacteria which can eventually kill them, slowly and very painfully.

2. Shearing does not injure a sheep, I don’t know about other countries but I’m sure its the same as Australia when if you do not shear them, they DO eventually become flyblown.

3. You CANNOT use wool if it has been contaminated by BLOOD. It cannot be skirted out like poo and urine does by the roustabouts.

4. Once a sheep has had its ‘throat slit’ it cannot be sheared for the same reason as 3. It has no advantage for anyone by killing their livestock if they are in the wool industry.

I don’t care about your decision to hate ugg boots, you probably don’t give a flying shit about mine but DO NOT spread this bullshit information when the wool industry does not work that way.

cherubplay:

CHERUBPLAY’s search system will work somewhat differently to Trollplay and other roleplaying websites. Searching on CHERUBPLAY is not random, but is instead focussed on prompts.

If you have a prompt, you enter it before you connect. If not, you’re given a list of all the available prompts and you can answer the one your interested in. By only being connected to people who are interested in your prompt or being able to choose which prompt you want to answer, you can easily avoid the loop of repeatedly connecting and disconnecting until you find someone you want to talk to.

CHERUBPLAY will be launching over the Christmas break, and there will be more annoucements about it over the coming weeks.

(Prompts stolen from fucknotrollplayprompts. Hopefully the real prompts will be of higher quality.)

OH MY FUCKING GOD
