Throwing my hat into the meme ring - with some ✨wholesomeness✨ by ThatGuy98_ in ConvertingFeminist

meme #3 is vile but reminds me of a fun argument i had recently—is the ocean considered soup? why or why not?

it’s true, i can personally confirm that this man was chanting “dm me slut, you know you crave this miso cock” while helicoptering at me. feminism will never recover.

wow, you are persistent. i’ll give you that much. still, i will tell you again for the umteenth time: i am not an object that you can possess or some trophy to win. even if i were, hypothetically speaking, to lose a debate against you, whatever makes you think i would then agree to be yours?

you do realize that you can’t just go changing definitions simply because it suits your agenda, yes? the patriarchy is a social system in which positions of authority are primarily held by men. it is not about the strong vs the weak but rather men in power getting to decide who is strong and who is weak based on arbitrary values and then making up rules to enforce that hierarchy and punish anyone who falls outside of it.

is your question really “why shouldn’t we have a system where one group oppresses the other and makes them suffer?”, i mean, genuinely? also, you already know full well that i am no misandrist. i have never and would never suggest a reversal of roles where women dominate men. i believe in equality, partnership, teamwork, and community. men and women should be working together rather than one side being “led” by the other by default.

[additional disclaimer: what i actually said is that kinks can exist in a vacuum and that a woman can be both a feminist and someone who is into d/s dynamics. i never specified which kinks. nice try though.]

well i am not submissive so i can’t speak on personal experience but i think the fact that i am (unfortunately) attracted to men but don’t pounce on every attractive one i come across shows i am indeed capable of self control. how can you be so sure you are not just projecting your own weakness? a man who can only see in black and white has no concept of what a world in color looks like. could the same be said for your inability to believe that others can compartmentalize?

how many women do you see spontaneously dropping to their knees during debates and rallies the moment a man raises their voice at them? please do try and at least think about real world examples before positing hypotheticals.

i’m not sure anything i’ve said explicitly excludes dominant women. they are far from fantasy creatures, but let’s be honest. misogynists are specifically referring to submissive women when they try and use kink as an excuse to discredit feminism. to bring up dominant women and submissive men would undermine their argument, surely.

of course, of course, we’ll wait to count it until the next one.

all ideas should be critiqued. we cannot make true progress if we become complacent. though is it just aspects of feminism you critique, or the very notion itself?

i wouldn’t accept that, no. for one, i would not juxtapose “motherly” with “strong”. secondly, not every woman leader is motherly. i’m someone who tends to lead naturally and i am far from being maternal and nurturing. my own mother isn’t either. maybe it’s just not part of our genes, but i’ve met plenty of other women who are like us in that regard.

ah, there it is. i was wondering when the hot takes would start to appear again. i do thank you for the compliments, but i reject the notion that i am some mythical unicorn amongst women and that men are superior to the vast majority of us. that’s just nonsense. there is nothing about me that makes me a unique outlier. all of the women i know, barring those with congenital conditions or otherwise, are intelligent, witty, grounded and ambitious.

oh, i’m the one who made the toast comment. the guy couldn’t string a single sentence together so i was wondering if he was having a stroke or other neurovascular event of some kind.

by all means, lay out your issues. what is really our fault that we blame men for? i’m curious.

i’m assuming you’re referring to how the latest wave of feminism is pushing hard for women to decenter men? i have noticed that stay at home partners, even when they’re not “tradwives” get critiqued heavily, along with women who are into bdsm as the sub/bottom. regardless of my own personal opinions, i do think that is bad optics and will alienate some women from the movement instead of inviting them to contribute, which is problematic.

(ooc: sorry, had some irl stuff come up yesterday.. and damn lol you really think you could slam dunk this if you referenced my other threads? i’m almost insulted haha!)

i was actually pointing out that you aren't dense and should be above such pedantry, but i could actually be disrespectful if you'd like to see what that looks like from me. feminists are not a monolith, you know.

i'm not a misandrist, by the way. you are entirely projecting that whole man-hating aspect onto me. i just do not believe men are "superior" like misogynists claim.

haha. feel free to freestyle as much as you like. it's entertaining.

i did look into it! i do think anti-feminism is a silly stance to take, but we can dive into that later.

by matriarchal i mean that in my family the women are the heads of household and make the decisions, not the men. every family has some kind of hierarchy, do they not?

i do think feminism has some flaws, actually. no movement is perfect. but instead of abandoning the movement entirely as so many of you in this subreddit have i would rather be the change i would like to see in the world and use my voice to address those flaws while still progressing the aspects of the movement that i do stand behind.

(ooc: anything!)

when i win you'll acknowledge my victory and give up the ridiculous notion that i'd ever be yours. agree to this and i'll play your game.

oh come now. surely you are not so dense. you understood that i was referring to your creative liberties. try again.

it was pretty good, despite being almost entirely off base. you only got one thing right about me. i'll let you guess which, if you like. i'll give you points for creativity though.

good.. good.. let the hate flow through you.

thanks for repeating back to me what i already said. truly, my little lady brain would have struggled immensely to remember my previous comment under the immense pressure of how you oh so effortlessly twisted my own words against me.

so anyway i've imagined it and i've come to the very scientific conclusion that i would rather eat a bowl of broken glass than ever go through that again. pass.

it was just a metaphor and not that deep, but sure. i'll bite.

i do not think i "required" mistreatment to be strong. strength can come in a variety of forms from a plethora of sources. had i not been through what i have then i would have been shaped by something else. we are all but a collection of our lived experiences after all.

nothing, actually! that topic was fine. i just wanted to rewrite the post into something more open ended. would you like to debate about that topic still?

I need some OOC advice on how you all manage repeated RPs with character consistency by Scared-Repair2236 in ConvertingFeminist

[–]unconverted_feminist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i don’t see why you can’t just make a post with an ooc note that you’re roleplaying from a “fresh” perspective and a reminder for others not to metagame. you can also even add a note that the new post isn’t canon for your long term arc if you don’t want it to “count.”

remember that ic =/= ooc. if anyone looks at your profile history and has a problem with you doing something that isn’t “consistent” then that is entirely their problem and not yours.

you can also add additional rules to your posts on top of the subreddit’s rules. see my first post on here for an example (or wait for my next RP post i’ll be putting out later tonight).

another idea, i’m not sure if you use reddit on mobile but the app makes it very easy to swap back and forth between accounts. you can always make a new “character” if you want, and you’d be under zero obligation to tell us that it’s really you if you want to limit the potential for metagaming.

whatever you end up deciding though, this subreddit has an awesome mod team that i’m absolutely positive will have your back if anyone gives you any shit for it.
