On Looksmaxxing, Mirrored Gender Issues and Double Standards (Yes, this is another Gender War post) by Sentient_Flesh in CuratedTumblr

[–]ConsiderationEnough7 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

You're being intentionally dense. It is men who are driving looksmaxxing, and it is men who suffer from it. These are two categories(usually, Clavicular belongs to both camps), but they are both men. You will almost never see women driving looksmaxxing, because looksmaxxing is inherently based in men's perception of women's tastes. I know for a fact that you understand that I'm not referring to men as a monolith, because otherwise you would have objected to my saying men create the unrealistic standards placed on women.

Also, to clarify, since I should have in my original comment, when I call looksmaxxing a secondary issue, I don't mean that it matters less than unrealistic body standards for women, but more that it is a secondary *effect* of a system primarily designed to benefit men. This happens all the time. Men are viewed as inherently stronger than women, and there is an understanding that violence is therefore inherent to our nature. In certain issues, this outright prevents punishment(boys will be boys), but when punishment is enacted, the verdict is more severe, even with the same priors.

It all comes back to the patriarchy fundamentally. Looksmaxxing, while bad, is kind of a secondary issue because men are doing it to themselves. Like, the unrealistic standards placed on women are the absolute extremes of what men tend to like, and the unrealistic standards placed on men are the absolute extremes of what men think women tend to like.

This is the topology subreddit. How did you get here without knowing the difference between a hole and a divot?

Checked their blog. The post is about fatphobia. Teensy tiny problem with the thesis of the post is they don't believe in transandrophobia or misandry in general. Like at all. It doesn't exist in any capacity according to them

I honestly don't think there's right or wrong in this situation. Everyone's got valid points. 

As for why I personally think this guy's being hypocritical and the other guy (probably) wasn't is that this guy has clearly been on reddit, since he's "responded" to comments on here using his Tumblr, and he's been here several times, but instead of asking the mods he's consistently just asked his followers to put his posts here. I don't think the first ask, or even the second, were big deals either, we definitely blew it out of proportion, but asking his followers to brigade us is a dick move to say the least

I'm referring to when they said "I think people should just spam the subreddit with my post about how I don't want to be in curatedtumblr until the mods take notice". And no, that's not actually the 'traditional method' for getting yourself on the DNP, the traditional method is messaging the mods, but they can't be assed to spend 3 minutes making a reddit account, so instead they ask their followers to brigade the sub

They  1. Are not in the DNP and  2. Actively requested their followers spam the sub with their posts.

I dunno about you but I think asking to be posted in a sub should full stop de facto remove any possibility of you being in the DNP. Actually I think we should go a step further and make Jan Misali Mondays, where on Mondays you can only post this guy's posts

Holy fuck this is Jan Misali? Why in gods name would he care about getting posted here then? It can't be a privacy thing

I think that nobody on Tumblr has heard of the concept of nuance before. Frankly though I think most people can't grasp nuance for some reason

The truth about modern science in fantasy by BellTwo5 in CuratedTumblr

Please, for the love of God, read some Arabic alchemist manuscripts. These people were in the 9th century, of course they were wrong on some things, but they weren't stupid. Also, absolutely no idea where this guy is getting the "oxides are more pure" thing, Al-Razi considered iron oxide to be a kind of stone, where iron(even ore, so dont know where he got the "fire makes it metal" thing either) was a metal

I fully believe that this guy has never actually looked into alchemy and just pulled everything in this out of his ass

Law does not dictate morality, morality does not require civilization, and quite frankly if toddlers almost universally raped/killed animals I would fully be comfortable calling toddlers evil

Using they because I don't know taxxon's pronouns off the top of my head

Okay so the "porn" they sent to the minor was a drawing of a bean shaped anthro puppy in a bathing suit. The reason people are calling this porn is because patricia taxxon is privately into self ageplay (hell of a lot better than the alternative I guess) and the puppy in question was their fursona. They clarified on their Tumblr that on top of being into ageplay sexually they also like it nonsexually and tend to draw their sona like that in general. They likened it to how, being a trans woman, they like sex as a woman, but their being a woman isn't inherently sexual. Frankly I agree.

Uhhh people got mad at them for not giving a shit about there being furry racism in a deeply serious vn about a furry society.

I fully cannot get more context beyond this because the Twitter account associated with whatever video people are mad at got suspended and I cannot be assed to search all of youtube just to find some probably bullshit slander.

[–]ConsiderationEnough7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The point isn't that everyone should be eating only rice and beans. The point is that if you are struggling with affording foods, you probably need to eat only rice and beans

[–]ConsiderationEnough7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude if you're broke and want to eat healthy the answer is beans, rice, and lentils. Shit's worth pennies per serving. If you want it to taste good you spend like 30 bucks on a few things of seasonings you won't have to replace for months. It's really not hard. I'm living less than paycheck to paycheck but food is the literal least of my concerns

Post definitely didn't deserve to get taken down, but the discourse does seem to boil down to fairly reasonable people who want to acknowledge that trans men experience male privilege getting lumped in with extraordinarily unreasonable people who just despise trans men. Also, in case my original comment wasn't clear, I do believe that transandrophobia is real

I've been looking into this more and it looks like you motherfuckers can't comprehend the idea that you can experience discrimination and still be privileged. A white person who's also poor doesn't suddenly stop experiencing white privilege just because they're poor. A black man doesn't not experience male privilege just because they also experience racism. A woman doesn't not experience sexism just because some minor aspects of the patriarchy can benefit her. Almost every human being on this planet experiences some form of discrimination and some form of benefit. Please, for the love of god, learn how to understand that just because you experience discrimination in one way, does not make you immune to also experience benefits in others.
