What Goes Around...

Apr 30, 2013 21:13

I figure that this is a perfectly apt subject for a post, especially considering the mood in the rest of the fandom right now thanks to the spoilers. You have to go look for them elsewhere on this journal - I don't want any accidents. For those of you who've read the spoilers, THIS IS A SPOILER FREE POST. Do not post them in the comments. For those ( Read more... )

travails of the svm fandom, the art of arse backwards, the psychology of violence, yep - dead as a doornail, intolerance and bigotry, get staked at club dead, the pure cult of virginity, the mythology of rape 101, wimmens the root of all evil, run like the wind sookie!, anon is moderated on this, sexism is over hahahaha, rants of the fanficy flavour, sookie stackhouse - 28

Heh - yes. There were a whole heap of those sentiments about men in the forums and blogs I went to. Thousands upon thousands of men who are literally thinking they've got it worse than women. I won't deny that there are legitimate men's issues, but they're rarely issues like women's are. Women need to fear violence from their partners, while men mostly need to fear violence at bars.

No, we don't. And there's great fear that we'll do that. In fact, there's a lot of fear that serial killers will be the new "cool" guys - because they have tribute sites and such.

Oh yes - so many initiatives. I had this image as my desktop for a bit. I love all these sorts of things ( ... )

Some Aussie company had started making male panties with laces and what not and it made the news here. I asked my husband what he thought and I`ve rarely seen him this negative. Why can`t men wear laces on their panties ( ... )

They should be able to. Particularly if it feels good to them ( ... )
