I am a gay man, but have always been a feminist first. Oppression, wars and racism all come from our patriarchal society. It needs to stop.

I mean a song like blurred lines breaking records? The ****ography of a little girl, Miley Cyrus, being shoved as "She understood the spirit of the VmAs" by the trashy Rolling Stone magazine? The US society has long been oversexified and mysogynistic, but this is all reaching new levels

This song was written by Ani in 1990. Is it any different now?

Woman have also caused wars oppression and racism. Everybody it;s at fault it's not just men.

Yes, sexism remains a problem.

Miley Cyrus isn't really a little girl and I think sexual freedom is her right, according to feminism. Sexual objectification and commodification by men is what's sexist, which is why BL is offensive.

Yes, society clearly still has a lot of things to work on.

because the women who come through the system have to obey to the patriarchal society. Same for gay men, blacks, and any minority. It's just sad.

Yup it's still this way it's depressing really
Song making me feel like crying

Indubitably. It can't be argued, but I'm sure someone will come along and try. Whether that's for attention or because they're genuinely oblivious and deluded enough to not notice? Your guess is as good as mine.

God bless women.

*Misogynistic

1. I laugh at anyone that thinks "Blurred Lines" has a misogynistic message.

2. Many parts of the world still have a lot work to do with full equality. In the US? Somewhat, but bitches complain too much.

Bye.

It's a two way street. Hate and anger on both sides.

Djdj PLS.

Yes, absolutely. I don't get why some men go out of their way to put down women in every single way possible. Women are awesome too. Give us a chance.

If you were put in women's shoes, you'd have a different opinion.

Miley Cyrus grinding on Ribin thicke and acting like a hooker (no shade) is not feminist.

Unfortunately, there are a huge number of ATRL members who will try to argue that misogyny doesn't still pervade society. I see it every time these sorts of topics come up on ATRL.

Of course, if there weren't a ton of ignorant asses on here, they'd know that LGBT rights and feminism are inextricably linked

You see, you have to understand: If you're a male, then your differing opinion doesn't matter. You are a man and therefore do not suffer any kind of sexism. How YOU feel about sexism is irrelevant. It's up to a WOMAN to decide what is sexist and what is not.

"Bitches complain too much" = misogyny.

I don't get why the existence of misogyny is so hard to get into people's titanium skulls.

Homophobia, sure, since a lot of people are taught to hate gays, but to me and anyone with any sense of observance it's clear misogyny is well and alive. It's not even hard to look for. A PERFECT example is the music video of the number one song in the country. And it's been number one for 10 plus weeks.

This also happens in the US.

I agree. We don't get to tell other people what the threshold for their discomfort is.

Yes, and anyone who says it isn't is delusional.
