Just stop it.
I posted this in another thread, but it deserves its own.
Just say "I don't like them" That's fine...but DON'T presume to know what is best for women! No one knows that except for each woman, and ONLY as it pertains to themselves.
It is time to end all this BS once and for all. Stop telling people what is good for them!
Some of you people just don't fucking get it. The fact that you even presume to say what is best for women is sexist in itself.
This was from a friend in game, one who I know is 100% a woman. She is not anyone you would expect from watching stream or anything, so don't even bother trying to guess.
Read the words and think about it.
(removed): I tried to send you a message but your box is full.
Sunsout Tacotuesday Gunsout: hey ok
(removed): It's probably good thing. It was a wall of text that was profanity laced rant about sexist assholes.
(removed): the whole vixen debate has me angry to the point of tears....I hate when people stand on the back of a tradgedy that I went through
(removed): to prove a point and try to use it as a weapon to prove a point.
(removed): it's sickening sexist crap. I'm not so weak from being abused in my past that I need some "big, strong man" to protect me from
(removed): the image of a woman being whipped in a fucking video game.
(removed): sorry...there I go again.
Sunsout Tacotuesday Gunsout: ok cleared room
Sunsout Tacotuesday Gunsout: send me it
(removed): it's all good. I left the page.
Sunsout Tacotuesday Gunsout: i love to read profanity laced rants about sexist asshole
(removed): I got "most" of it out of my system.
(removed): it is though...this idea they need to protect us from the image of it is as sexist and oppressive albeit not physical
(removed): as the actual agressors themselves.
(removed): when you say something like "the image is too much" or some such nonsense you are allowing my attacker to control aspects
Sunsout Tacotuesday Gunsout: that is true
(removed): of my life and giving them power once again.
(removed): it's fucking disgusting and has me legitimately thinking less of anyone who opposes it based on those grounds.
Sunsout Tacotuesday Gunsout: did you post taht in a thread?
(removed): no...I cuss too much.
Sunsout Tacotuesday Gunsout: lol
(removed): and I'm ok with you knowing about (deleted) because I feel like we are of similar mindset.
(removed): I don't want others freely knowing because apparantly it will be used as a weapon "for my own protection"
(removed): at the very least....thanks for letting me rant at you...sorry to bring you down.
(removed): it's just an emotional issue and has me super upset.
Sunsout Tacotuesday Gunsout: do not worry
Sunsout Tacotuesday Gunsout: i understand
(removed):
Sunsout Tacotuesday Gunsout: can i copy this in my post if i delete your name and promise you attorney client confidentiality and promise never to divluge it was you?
Sunsout Tacotuesday Gunsout: what you said makes so much sense
(removed): no problem.
(removed): I trust you
Those are the words of a strong woman. One who has a right to make her own fucking choices, and one who deserves to never have to hear what is best for her.
I don't need to protect her, but I DO need to tell some of you that this is a mature rated game, and you DONT get to tell people what they can and cant see!
Some of you really don't get it. It saddens me.
This is my last post on the issue. I am just too disgusted with too many of you.
Edit: I posted it because I will gladly take another temp ban for profanity if the swearing is over the top. As much as I hate being banned, I will gladly take any ban THIS post gives me.
Edit: and lastly, I understand that by writing this, I am sort of doing the very thing that she doesn't need. SO I want to make it clear, it is NOT to protect her...she can handle herself fine. I am doing it to call out each and every one of you hippocrates and to let you know that your anti-vixen rhetoric is piss in the wind when it comes to truly making a difference.
You kill mobs, you wear body stockings and you would shoot a crying baby in the game if you could HOF.
