The shitty life advice brigade

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

even if they're from a ridiculously rich, ridiculously happy family in a ridiculously safe and friendly environment, sexism is still a thing

(Anonymous) 2014-05-29 05:11 am (UTC)(link)
no one is saying that, just because people point out that your dad telling you to do the dishes isn't male oppression doesn't mean those same people are saying sexism doesn't exist

stop being so fucking obtuse

okay? and i never said that your dad telling you to do the dishes was oppression, i'm just saying a lot of tumblrinas have experienced oppression.

(Anonymous) 2014-05-29 08:06 am (UTC)(link)
most tumblrinas are rich white girls and while they do experience sexism, implying the level in which they experience it is in anyway compared to the levels in which they like to insist they are oppressed by society as a whole is laughable.

you can be oppressed and still over exaggerate it and/or appropriate the oppression of others.

Okaaay...? never said they didn't do that either. did you miss the 'sjws are idiots' part.

(Anonymous) 2014-05-29 03:21 pm (UTC)(link)
tbh using the word 'oppression' instantly brings sjw-ism to mind

applying it to mild cases of sexism and asserting that an upper-middle class tumblrina 'experiences oppression every day' makes it sound hyperbolic

(Anonymous) 2014-05-29 04:52 pm (UTC)(link)
well i mean i dont mean they spend every day toiling in the mines

i just mean that they get negative comments, looks, and experiences that a man simply not have, day-to-day

not even big things just little things, like someone not taking their opinion as seriously or whatever

it's an inescapable fact of being a woman

(Anonymous) 2014-05-29 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
and so does a black man, or a hispanic man, or any man who isn't white (if we're going by western standards).

everyone who isn't a rich white heterosexual, cisgendered, fully able-bodied guy deals with some form of oppression or -ism.

doesn't make talking about how bad the poor rich white girls have it any less insulting for people who deal with oppression more seriously and with more direct consequences every day of their lives.

don't forget mental illness ok you can't have one of those

(Anonymous) 2014-05-29 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
you seem to be arguing with a person who isn't here

because ive agreed with literally everything you've said in this entire discussion

(Anonymous) 2014-05-29 03:21 pm (UTC)(link)
No they haven't.
