why is it usually in this thread that it’s less of posting actual pick-mes and more of getting mad at other female kiwis.
the political is personal
When women complain about misogyny and male violence:"OMG stop with the gender wars guys!!! Can't we just all get along?! Why do you have to be soooooo hateful?!"
When men say the most awful and violent things about women, argue our rights should be taken away and we should be turned into property: "Haha that's a bit silly I guess? But women are bad too!!!"
Please fuck off with the "women and men are equally bad" until women rape and murder men at the same rates men do to women.
Those who give up their freedom for security shall have neither. So the pick-mes sucking up to misogynistic and perverted moids are the most likely to get fucked up by one. It's like how choosing to volunteer at a pitbull rescue drastically increases your chance of getting maimed by a pitbull. At least, that's what the men are telling us when they say women need to be the gatekeeper of sex for them [and then they resent women for gatekeeping the sex.]
OK I also want to add that the "not like the other girls" rhetoric is fundamentally sexist, as a woman you're acknowledging a man's perceived superiority over (yes) all womankind by defining yourself as "NOT" [insert sexist stereotype here]. But it breaks down when you get into specifics: does that girl's concatenated, YouTube-safe CSA flag painted on the wall (nice work too) make her more like a man, even if just in a spiritual/demeanor way? Medical scrubs are coded "girly" even though the men have to wear them too, as their job requires it.
I'm not even sure what the snap in the middle is bragging about. Perhaps she cut a lot of sheet metal...? Props sis but why do they need to throw shade on the women who can't do some specific, masculine-coded hobby/fashion/behavior.
Pick-me ideology implies that you're aping the men and presenting as a tomboy so that the men regard you as the exception to the rule. You're not like the other girls, the carhartt and timberlands make it clear that you're a boy-ish girl. Their whole pitch implies that other women are inferior because they don't know how to hang drywall or whatnot,
and because instead of being construction workers, they are nurses and medical techs?? Wow. Such misplaced class anxiety, lmao.
What happened to being a dyke? Is that not a valid identity anymore?
You shouldn't kill someone simply for cheating, that's idiotic for something that can be handled in court if it's a married couple.
I think if the prevailing culture relaxed a little about cheating, many more marriages would survive what are now divorce-level betrayals.
Out of curiosity are you mad because I said women can minimize their likelihood of being murdered if they stop cheating
Or mad because I said women shouldn't have rights.
No one cares faggot go home.
Sure sure man, but that's why the law categorizes crimes like this by crimes of passion and crimes of malice. Sometimes people are put into such an emotional state that overwhelms their ability to act rationally and do things that they wouldn't have done if they were in their right mind. Most people aren't psychopathic murderers who meticulously plan out their crimes, most people kill in the heat of the moment and if it were as easy as just saying "just let it get settled in court" then there'd be a lot fewer murders.
I'm saying don't do things that could incite a person to such an irrational emotional state that they make a terrible mistake and take your life in a moment of complete loss of control.
To me it just seems like self-preservation. We both know that there's a line for every man that if you crossed it he'd punch you in the face because we both have that line too so we modify our behavior in conversations/confrontations with other men knowing that violence is a potential outcome and we want to avoid that if possible.
Why don't women do that too?
> men are the rational, responsible, logical ones
> men are the passionate, impulsive, irrational ones
pick one u can't have both. I'm generally leery of statues that permit 'trans panic' or 'crime of passion' as ameliorating factors in homicides.
If I walked around Chicago or Detroit at 3am with nice shoes on I'd probably be killed by some nigger who wanted my shoes.
Stop inciting violence against yourselves.
"Look what you made me do." Is that all you moids have to say for yourselves about your propensity for domestic violence?
Do you see how in your metaphor, you've said men are categorically similar to n-words? Is that really your pitch? "we're n-words,
I have a really hard time believing people like you are genuine in your morality when we can all agree that if we walked in on the babysitter molesting our child we'd probably murder that person.
Why is it so much more of a leap to say it would be a hard impulse to control walking in on your spouse of 20 years fucking the next door neighbor and destroying your entire life up to that point.
These are some pretty rare scenarios to conjure up to make violence okay, but I do believe we have self-defense and stand your ground laws.
Though if you shoot a naked man in the back and thorax 6 times and he bleeds to death in your lawyer foyer, though, it's difficult to claim self-defense.
Well by his logic it's a good idea more women are learning how to shoot a gun. A far higher upgrade compared to the frying pan or rolling pin.
“I don’t believe rape is inevitable or natural. If I did, I would have no reason to be here. If I did, my political practice would be different than it is. Have you ever wondered why we [women] are not just in armed combat against you? It’s not because there’s a shortage of kitchen knives guns in this country. It is because we believe in your humanity, against all the evidence.”
