Originally posted by Kali. What's the point of insulting me? I am saying that I did not experience sexism, therefore saying all women are oppressed is offensive and wrong. I am not blind.

I didn't insult you.

Sexism, much like racism, is a system of oppression and disadvantages.
If you think you haven't experienced it in your life, then it's because you're not aware you have.
The world we live in is largely patriarchal. It's not something that's avoidable.

That doesn't mean that all women are helpless and pitiful


and if you want to talk about being insulted you might want to revisit the comment you made earlier where you called people trying to raise awareness for discrimination "silly"

Originally posted by Kali. I haven't experienced sexism and I am not oppressed. Sorry to burst your bubble. I didn't call people who fight real discrimination silly. However, as I said before, I think it is silly to think that (for example) Miley twerking or Blurred Lines is real racism/sexism. That's just my opinion though. If you think you are being discriminated because of that though, you are more than welcomed to protest against it.

It's just my opinion, just like too sensitive does not give you the right to be sincerely ignorant.
Opinions can be offensive.

We'll stop being "overly sensitive" when people stop treating others differently because of what they were born with.

Originally posted by Grumpy Gills "Too sensitive" is just an excuse so ppl don't have to own up to & rethink their ********

Originally posted by Deuces People who are too stupid to have real conversations or are too ignorant to think about why someone would find something offensive use the "you are sensitive" line. You have no right to tell people what they can find offensive or not. If it doesn't bother you, exit and move on and let others have a real discussion without the "OMG YOU ARE SENSITIVE, STOP CYRING, GET OVER IT!!!111"

Originally posted by Peroxide Yes and no. Depends on the individual... but there are those who are hell bound on trying to find something offensive with just about everything. All it does is make you look like a high and mighty, self-righteous douche. That said we do live in a society that's racist, agist, homophobic, sexist and bigoted without even realising it. A lot of prejudice's have become socially accepted normalcies. And that's sad. Either end of the spectrum ain't good.

Originally posted by KingSebert Yes everyone on here thinks everything is racist or some type of phobic or insulting. It's ridiculous
