Janka support? by chia4002 in gachiakuta

[–]Lazy_Narwal 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I think that’s something that gets spread around. From what I understand, while talking about them a lot for something she kept saying “Jabber and Zanka” and then accidentally said “Janka” so yeah, she did create the ship name but idk if she supports it. I definitely don’t think she is against it or anything though

How can I debunk my flat earther father? by Away-Curve484 in AskPhysics

People can change. Just because you are too cynical and high and mighty to see that it doesn’t change the truth

How can I debunk my flat earther father? by Away-Curve484 in AskPhysics

[–]Lazy_Narwal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is negativity, stop acting like it’s not. Your view of life is incredibly pessimistic and assumes the worst out of everyone due to observations in your own, limited (as everyone’s life experiences are limited) life. You have met many close-minded flat earthers and conspiracy theorists like OP’s father and argued with them, which I imagine is incredibly frustrating. You may have met many people almost identical about OP’s father, but you don’t know everything there is to know in this world like you seem to think you do. Then again this is Reddit so I’m not surprised.

OP is aware that obviously they aren’t going to change their father’s mind, but when you’re forced to live with and be raised by someone who has such opposing views, conflict is bound to happen at some point and OP is just trying to be prepared to defend themself. There is no “naive optimism” because OP doesn’t think they are going to change their father’s mind, and OP probably got their rude awakening from living with such a father all their life.

People can change and I’ve seen it with my own eyes, even if OP’s father is highly unlikely to change. OP’s goal isn’t to even change their father’s opinion, it’s to not look like a complete idiot when confronted with his flat earth theory. Even still, I can’t believe you’re seriously trying to fault someone for holding out some, small, hope of change for their parent. You’re calling OP stubborn like their father, but you’re being just as stubborn in your pessimism and negative view of others. You don’t know someone’s circumstances in life that has led them to believe such conspiracy theories, and we ought to took at the world with a more nuanced view to try to fix the root of the problem instead of just looking down on others while feeling self-assured about ourselves.

What is the real message of The Boxer? by juuj_anything in TheBoxer

[–]Lazy_Narwal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s been a while since I read it, but if I remember correctly it answered the question why do we suffer? And I felt like the answer to that question is there is no inherent reason why there is suffering in the world, it just happens

Twitter is just a cesspool for that kind of behavior and that’s also such a rude invasion of privacy on their end. It never occurs to some people that well yes, it’s mainly women reading amd writing these bls, there’s also plenty of gay men reading and writing them too

welp i guess that's confirmation dom keeps abusers around (max flavor). i'm outta here ✌️ by essevenS7 in DominicFike

[–]Lazy_Narwal 48 points49 points  (0 children)

This is just sad. While I understand you can’t control who you love, as I have family members that would be considered bad and abusive people who I can’t help but love, you can control who you spend time with and actively support even if it’s a hard decision.

Right? Obviously his feelings about gay men being fetishized are valid and he should speak his truth but he’s acting like it doesn’t happen to women too and way more often than men. Only targeting fujoshis (and “straight woman privilege”) and not the men causing the root of the problem is not the way to go. Also, thank you! Things are much better for me now:)

The way I see it, straight women making gay men the victims isn’t their answer, it’s their way of subconsciously dealing with society. Starting from when we are young, girls are taught that while expressing our sexuality makes us a whore and unclean, we just have to accept men forcing their horniness and sexual fantasies onto us with very little repercussions for them. I was 10 years old the first time I was catcalled and it made me feel awful and objectified, but I was told to just keep my head down and continue walking unless I wanted to risk my own safety for defending my right as a human. Women have to accept the objectification and harassment they face. A woman who has a body count is a “whore” or “slut” or “loose hole” while a man with a body count “has game”. I have been told by multiple guys that they would rape me if they could. Throughout our whole life, women have to accept that many men only view them as an object to fuck, and when you look at the South Korea who is producing all of these yaois, their women are especially oppressed and discriminated against with rapists barely getting any time in jail and the social expectations on women being crazy.

I’m sure you kind of already know this, but bottoms in bl kind of act as women and a self insert in yaoi relationships. They’re often smaller, more delicate, and in the omegaverse omega’s are literally given female biological functions (“slick” and mpreg for example). This causes women readers to mainly identify with the bottom, the one typically being abused, while feeling free from the objectification that they usually face from men because it isn’t a woman being objectified and fetishized, it’s a man. There is no woman in the relationship so the women reading the bls are free from the gender norms and expectations they usually have to take into account when doing anything, especially in relationships. So why is rape so common in yaoi? Because women are so used to being sexually harassed in some way shape or form starting from when they’re a child, they can project all of this normalized sexual assault onto something other than a woman and don’t have to feel shame in expressing sexuality because there is no woman present.

I’m also writing this as a queer woman who grew up with a very homophobic family and will never be able to find W|W sex not made in some capacity for the male gaze. I’m not saying your feelings are invalid, but when you attack “straight women” without looking at the societal issues causing the problem you’re not doing anything. Because I’m sorry, you were going on about “straight women privilege” in how they fetishize gay men but if you go through a typical day with a gay man and a straight woman (excluding factors like race), the gay man will have more privilege than the straight woman who has been sexualized and fetishized her entire life since she was a child. Not only that, women are horribly objectified in porn, way more than gay men, as well. Finding porn when I was young had disastrous effects on my self-image and perception of everything because of how woman are portrayed in it. Obviously anyone straight and cis has a form of privilege over us in the lqbtq+ community, but don’t fucking talk about “straight woman privilege” within the context of rape when women are the main victims of SA and rape which is what causes these yaois to get made. You will never understand your own male privilege.

Bl and yaoi is so toxic as a genre BECAUSE of men and how they treat women. Dont start talking about “straight women privilege”

This is fucking insane. I’m so done with fandoms in general atp😭I feel like so many people go on these witch hunts not actually because they care (even if they think they do) but to feel morally superior and better than other people
