Feminism Thread

[Charismatic]

No its not
Do you know why?
He landed a probe on a fucking comet. At that very moment he could have whipped his cock out and start jerking it, and the only thing anyone can comment on is a lack of professionalism, and he would be excused because he landed a probe on a fucking comet.

Overshadowing something so amazing with "but his shirt has cartoon women in lingerie" is so selfish and greedy it put the feminist fight for equality back to the stone age.


Every single thing that women have fought for in the past 50 years or whatever just took a massive blow because of this.

At the next slutwalk parade or whatever its called, when women hold up signs or paint their body with "what im wearing is not an invitation", the MRA people are going to use this very incident to silence that thought.

I'm sending you to time out. Go stand facing the corner until I tell you that you can come back out.

If it was about the waving cock comment, its a nhl reference most here wont get. Those that do know what its about.

You dont think the fight for equality took a massive blow

[tyven]

to be fair, im sure we've all done the equivalent of landing a thingy on a comet at some point in our careers of video gaming. its not like he was flying the shuttles from Armageddon and then drilling a hole into the comet and arming a nuke and then staying behind to detonate the nuke because the remote detonator was broken

Of course not. Do you think even 5% of first world humans have the first inkling of what was accomplished by this man and his team, much less what his shirt looked like, much less know about the reaction to said shirt enough to change their opinion (which they likely have barely given a thought to) about women's rights?

And on top of that, your "asking for it by their clothing" analogy isn't nearly as powerful as you think it is.

[NynJa]

Time will tell that

[Salodin]

No it won't, cause feminist whine loud enough to change stories and polls.

Aussie Today Show anchor manages to do more for the cause of feminism than practically every scandalous story that neofeminists have attempted to use as their warcry this year. Wears same suit for an entire year, shockingly nobody notices. http://www.theage.com.au/entertainme...15-11ncdz.html

"No one has noticed; no one gives a shit. But women, they wear the wrong colour and they get pulled up. They say the wrong thing and there’s thousands of tweets written about them. Women are judged much more harshly and keenly for what they do, what they say and what they wear… I’ve worn the same suit on air for a year - except for a couple of times because of circumstance - to make a point. I’m judged on my interviews, my appalling sense of humour - on how I do my job, basically. Whereas women are quite often judged on what they’re wearing on how their hair is." -Karl Stefanovic

No one notices the suit, its the tie that catches the eye

[Blubbartron]

I was under the impression that wearing the same basic outfit with a different tie was the standard for most ultra-professional (suit/tie) jobs.

[notorious bum]

Matt Lauer sports obnoxious suits all the time lol

[kuronosan]

How is that pro feminist? He specifically says "women notice". Do guys notice if a woman wears the same outfit on news?

Seems awfully biased.

[notorious bum]

I don't see where he specifically says only women notice women. The male-operated media establishment lives off of critiquing petty shit about what women look like, especially successful women or women in power.

[NynJa]

Do guys notice if a woman wears the same outfit on news?

unless its something intended to stand out, i dont remember what someones wearing 5 minutes after they leave.

[NynJa]

I dont know if its just lighting / shadows / camera angles / light detraction from the tie or what not, but those two shirts on the far right look light blue. The blazer in the bottom middle looks dark grey, not navy blue.

Whoever screencapped these, IF theyre all the same blazer and dress shirt, did a garbage job.

I dont want to go all adaman hauberk and start analysing pixels, eye test will suffice, but you can also see that the backdrop has a different color pattern every time.
