Encounters With SJWs/Tumblristas Offline or In Unusual Communities

[One Man Bland]

Yep!

Honestly for all his SJW-ing, Prof. Soyboy can have his moments. For instance, during the discussion today, the subject came up of women who will accept jobs in shady situations or allow themselves to be sexually harassed at their workplace because they are either directly told or because they believe that it will help them advance in their career.

He said "You'd have to have a pretty shitty view of yourself to do that kind of thing, geez." In a very condescending voice.

For someone who's all about dismantling the patriarchy and checking your privilege, he's sure one to "victim-blame". Heh.

Inb4 he gets investigated by higher ups because of multiple complaints by 20-something TAs regarding sexual harassment and solicitation

 

[DuckSucker]

I asked "But is it appropriate to be teaching young children about consent in an explicitly sexual context?"

She said "Well, the pedophiles don't wait!"

Not to sound like r/thathappened, but multiple classmates cheered for her and one did "sassy snaps".

Aside from the fact that telling kids not to let people touch them in a way that makes them uncomfortable or whatever is already explaining consent to children in a way that's more easy for them to understand and apply in context.

Kissing grandma is more of the idea that youre going to have to experience uncomfortable shit in life, do shit you dont want or like, and that the world wont cater to you or exist to please you. You need to make the term more exclusive rather than more inclusive in order to deal with this sort of issue -- so that children can actually determine the difference between making them kiss grandma versus touching Anthony's wiener or whatever and then being guilted into it when he says "Well you kiss grandma dont you? Dont you like me?" "Youve already kissed me, you might as well go further".Kids, especially pre pubescent kids, will not understand the context, little kids who still think girls are icky will not understand what's going on or what youre talking about, so it doesnt do anything except make you feel good. They arent going to understand the difference, the context, or the difference in context in application so leaving it kind of childish is better.

Teach them this shit as it comes up in their lives and they understand it better. But the pedophiles thing is stupid because pedophiles are criminals, so it is a moot point. It's like asking how a murderer lives with himself, and then going, well we need to teach kids how to avoid being murdered! It's not victim blaming but it's like, theres not any one thing you can point at or do to deal with this, there is no simple solution because it's not a black and white issue. It's easy to go on tumblr and feel like it's a good idea because you get a million retweets or whatever, and it's a simple solution, but if solving world hunger was as simple as fucking flying over Somalia and dropping a bunch of dollar menu big macs out of a plane, the human condition wouldnt exist.

I just wanna know why there are so many people who apparently were traumatized by having to kiss grandma.

They're not traumatized, they're sheltered bourgeoisie fucks who have never experienced any sort of discrimination or harassment so they have to resort to using grandma's kisses to get that sweet sweet #metoo cred.

 

[DuckSucker]

Its not trauma from kissing grandma, maybe for tumblr people it is, but little 5 year old boys think that physical affection from girls is gross, especially if it's a sloppy kiss that leaves lipstick on your face. If youre the one actually forced to kiss grandma it's not a big deal cause you can get away with a quick peck.

I dont know about these guys on tumblr tho.

The theory behind it is that it's contradictory to teach kids that they don't have to give physical affection to anyone if they don't want to, and that nobody should touch them in a way that makes them uncomfortable, but then scold children for refusing to give physical affection to family members and force the child to be ok with it.
Parents will say "You're going to make Grandma feel sad if you don't kiss her!" or "Don't you love Auntie? If you love Auntie, give her a kiss," even if the kid is shy or just doesn't want to.
It is a conflicting message for a child and it equates feelings of love with showing physical affection - something which is innocent when it is just a little kiss on the cheek but gets more sinister in a more explicitly sexual context ("if I love him/her, I have to have sex with him/her").
You can say "but it's family, so it's different," but that means that kids learn that they're never able to refuse physical affection from family. If you've got a pervy uncle or creepy cousin, that's bad news. Plus, if the little kid only sees Grandma once or twice a year, she's basically a stranger, so even though she's "grandma" the kid is still kissing a stranger.

It's a little SJWish but it's better and healthier than teaching first-graders that Susie should always give a clear YES before you touch her private parts, and Johnny should always feel guilty for being born with boy parts because of toxic masculinity.

Stuff lke this is one of the reasons I am still baffled by americans.

It is a slippery-slope argument, and I'd like to see empirical evidence that being told to show affection to relatives -- under parent-supervised, safe situations -- is in any way associated with the failure to assert boundary with strangers.

You can say "but it's family, so it's different," but that means that kids learn that they're never able to refuse physical affection from family. If you've got a pervy uncle or creepy cousin, that's bad news. Plus, if the little kid only sees Grandma once or twice a year, she's basically a stranger, so even though she's "grandma" the kid is still kissing a stranger.

I can't see the problem with "do what mom told you", especially when it concerns very young children. Later on the child will form judgement on their own and be intelligent enough to reason with parents, but when the child is 4 or 5, to "let the kid decide" is to shirk the duty of parenthood.

Also, parents have the duty to screen out creepy cousins and pervy uncle.

 

[Vorhtbame]

It is parents' responsibility to help their children learn what physical contact is okay and what is not. Additionally, it is important for children to learn that it is okay to touch people. Otherwise, they'll turn into maladjusted, hypersensitive, hypersexualized creatures who will be unable to so much as shake hands with someone without popping a boner--or feeling raped because someone patted them on the shoulder.

Both extremes are unhealthy.

In other encounters, I have recently seen the phrase "non-appropriation multiculturalism" used in a context of fantasy writing. The only thing I can make of this phrase is "crystallized unicorn farts".

 

[RisingPhoenix]

A weird one and not sure if SJW but it suits the attitude. This happened around...2008-9? Bonfire night.

I'm serving in the Supermarket I worked in at the time, I'm well known for giving really good customer service in the store. I admittedly base my service skills on US customer service skills and try to genuinely greet and say farewell to customers. I honestly mean it too and try not to fake-sincere it.

It's coming up to the fireworks and I'm hoping store gets a bit quiet so we can go to the entrance to watch for a bit. Just before that I serve this lady in like her 50's - I usually gage and toned down my cheery chatty tone if someone didn't look in the mood for it, but didn't catch it here. I bid her a good night and she looks at me like I kicked a puppy. I forget the entire response, but she basically declares it "disgusting" that I would do such an "American thing" and tells me not to greet people in that fashion anymore.

TL;DR someone got a stick up their butt because I wished them a good night

 

[Coconut Gun]

Would SJWs explode if they went to Europe and found out that a kiss on the cheek is a somewhat common way to greet people?

 

[Plissken]

Before I decided to leave the college I was just at, I had a US History professor. We were talking about the initial colonization of America and how fucked up certain things were, and then started getting into the Articles of Confederation. He then went into, no joke, a 30 minute rant about President Trump and how he's a tyrant. He then tried to paint a picture of Trump voters having buyer's remorse. Hilariously enough, he issued an apology email a couple of days later for the rant. No doubt someone blew the whistle on him, which caused the Provost at the school to twist his arm and back pedal.

Damn, at my school that would have gotten him an award.

 

[El Sad-Fist]

While not a particularly interesting story, I've recently had an epiphany

This year especially, I've had a few friends soft-fall into the gender beartrap. Being trans is chill by me, don't read me wrong, but I've noticed a common theme among these guys that makes me scrub my chin harder than steel wool.

None of them EVER outright tell you they're changing pronouns, which is odd because usually people carry megaphones just to make sure everyone can hear their beautiful he/she/wumbo. Not a single one told me, and given it's trendy these days to put minimal effort into passing because uwu, they're basically shoving people into a trap for that misgendering shit. If we're friends, you can fucking tell me these things, man.

But do they? No. Why? My best guess is to increase the waaaaa everybody misgenders me! by tenfold

maybe I'm just pulling this out of my ass but tl;dr fuckin communicate man. Don't rename yourself "Rory" under the radar (which literally happened. Ouch, nice name choice) and expect people to psychically know you're now a nongendered bonefuck

 

[Used Coat Hanger]

Theres an sjw in four of my classes and she is nuts.

-She accused a girl with vitiligo of doing "half-assed black face" and I facepalmed so hard I left a mark.
-She assumes im straight, racist, and rich bc im "white" (not even fully white but she is lmao)
-She claims to be partially dragon, fox, and wolf
-She claims to be Chiaki from Danganronpa and Yuri from DDLC
-She uses xir/fae/bun/it pronouns and goes reeee every time i use "they" or "he" as a compromise to keep peace
-Did I mention she IDs as a Demivixengender Nebulagender?
-She got onto the class clown for making daddy kink jokes bc she was "abused" by her rich white dad.
-She's self-dxed with c-ptsd, bpd, osdd-1b, npd, aspd, ocd, hypersexuality, autism, adhd, depression, anxiety, psychosis, bipolar disorder, post incest syndrome, dpd, hpd, gender dysphoria, and schitzoaffective disorder
-Whenever i joke about my race she fakes a psychotic episode
-This bitch went on a two hour rant about cultural appropriation bc I complemented a girl's weave
-She's "Panalterous Aromantic Homosexual" and is actually dating someone
-She claims to be Wiccan, but when I asked her to recite the Wiccan Rede she froze.
-She reeeees whenever she sees a hamburger because she's a massive vegan
-She still thinks the holocaust is going on

When I first met her, I thought she was cool bc I heard her talking about Dangan but when I got to talking to her she called me a "ciswhitefemale whore", "a cockwasher of men", "straighty whitey", "spoiled brat", and a "fujioshi homophobe" after I said, "Chihiro is pretty cute isn't he?"

She's like, one strike away from being put in an at risk classroom due to her additude problems. Even the teachers hate her.

You wat mate?

Don't get me wrong, everything about this person is a heaping pile of :autism:, but if she's dating someone, you need to save that person. Ask them to blink twice if they need help. Also, judging from that end bit, I assume this person is a lesbian? If so, have they said anything that might belong in the nice gals thread?

Most of this shit is punishable and you should not hesitate to act upon that with the school authorities

Maybe nobody rats her out because she's clearly exceptional.
