Updates You Pray I Never, Ever Post: #58 In A Series

@Chrome

Yes, god forbid your daughters have enjoyable sex lives and healthy sexual attitudes, or occasionally enjoy the least harmful drug around. Smoking weed sometimes makes you a druggie, and allowing yourself to be photographed in the nude makes you a slut. And girls should fear being called sluts, of course, because that’s bad bad bad. Girls should just shut the fuck up and quit pretending your body is for your own enjoyment and not a blank slate for society to project all its anxieties and neuroses onto. Because then men will look down on you! And of course those men constitute all men, because we said so. And so you might not get a man, and all of Cosmo’s tips on how to Please Your Man will be in vain! And really, that’s the measure of your value in the world, as the media is more than happy to make clear, so you might as well say ‘gg’ and start cutting if misogynistic douchebags aren’t interested in you.

Seriously, Chrome, WHAT THE FUCK?

“”I think it was rather silly to post the stoned bit, it is a crime (no matter where you stand on the issue) and could get her into real trouble.”"

You might want to call High Times magazine and relay the message, I don’t think they’ve heard about the ‘you can’t talk about smoking weed’ law yet.

Man, Cypress Hill is going to be fucked.

“”Joe,
I have 2 daughters close to her age and they both have healthy sexual and self images and no they dont go about acting like a slut because yes it is socially a bad image to portray about ones self. Its called self reespect.”"

Note the complete absence of logic in this paragraph. It’s “socially a bad image to portray”, as in it’s against what strangers — in a culture dominated by misogynistic assholes — might expect from you. How on earth does that involve ‘self respect’? The very ESSENCE of self respect is being able to tell society’s self-proclaimed standard-bearers to go fuck themselves if and when they so choose. The message that a woman who enjoys sex and enjoys flaunting her body lacks self-respect is anti-feminist to the core.

Nothing says we all have to be the girl who posts naked pictures on twitter. But there’s something deeply, sickly wrong with you if you think that being comfortable enough with your body to post them is a sign of lacking ‘self-respect’.
