Where in the **** is the logic?
And maybe, just maybe, if you dickholes pulled your head out of your asses, and stopped complaining about feminists, feminists would go away. Because if you stop complaining about them, then what they say is heard. Then there's equality. Then they aren't a needed part of our society. But, I know, it's hard for you guys. You'll have to give up your ignorant ways and actually learn something instead of still having this image in your head of all feminists being crazed, hairy, non-bra wearing, man haters. God for-f*cking-bid. |
Yass tell them!

Because why fight objectification with more objectification? These feminists are going around saying its wrong, but are quick to support feminists who make videos that go against their beliefs (like the one pulled then reinstated on YouTube). It's very hypocritical and that's why many people don't take feminists seriously even if they can somewhat agree with their overall message

But those kinds of videos are not "attacking" explicit. While this might be a parody, it's not "oh we can laugh about this" explicit. It's more "listen to what we have to say" explicit. And that could be seen as verbal attacks other than just "oh, you crazy kids"... 
Really, perspective is a motha and it's never crystal clear what can be kept and what can't.

The video was proving a point why the Blurred lines video is disgusting and wrong. Now these "feminist" flips the table and sexualizes men you feel disgusted right? well that's how women felt after watching the blurred lines video. Doesn't feel good now does it?
it's not that hard to understand

Well,because by saying stop it, we're called whiny bitches on the rag. So we have to do something. And the only thing that ever seems to work is by placing someone in the victims' shoes. It's flawed, but it's the only way any feminist will get through to people.

It's obviously tongue-in-cheek. Nothing suggests these women actually emasculate or objectify men. Doing something in a video to prove a point and to make a statement doesn't mean you actually endorse or encourage that behaviour.

The video itself is objectifying men whether we like it or not. Most of you can agree with that. However feminists are fighting against objectification WHILE AT THE SAME TIME fighting for this video to be reinstated, a clear hypocritical stance. People will not support hypocrisy.
Yes the first video was bad but instead of worrying about putting up the other video they should worry about taking down the first. It is disgusting that feminists are making these videos because they are only creating more riff between men and women in society when they should be mending.

But if their point was to show people how men look like under the same standards the Blurred Lines video puts women, then i don't see why it deserved to be taken down. But it was put up again anyways. At end of the day,let the feminists try to prove their point.Everyone has an opinion,no matter how drastic or unpopular it can be.

But it just doesn't work like that. Feminists have been trying to take down this video for months, and nothing at all has happened. Feminists don't get listened to unless they take drastic measures. And in none of those videos are any of the feminists saying that objectifying men is how it should be. They're showing how wrong it is. I think that's actually the opposite of hypocrisy.

You're right, of course, and you've been right all along. Thank you for your posts in this thread.

 Feminisnt have BEEN trying to get their point proven to men and other females and nobody cared enough to do anything about it.
it's a shame that it takes women to objectify men the same way they do to us for people to comprehend how ugly and wrong it is, it took this video for you to be like "wtf that's not normal" Boom, point proven.

Completely sexist, it wasn't even explicit (not even a penis outline). The buff guy in the video is so hot

Because, generally, men aren't being objectified by women daily or casually. The reverse happens all the time, though.
If misogynistic men can see a problem with men being objectified by women in a parody video, then they should realize the problem in women being objectified by men all the time.

And "listen to what we have to say" kind of explicit is wrong? It had a meaning to it.

Yes, it's wrong. Because you shouldn't have to curse to get a point across. It does nothing but garner the wrong kind of attention.
