Do you think its wrong if somebody recognizes their privilege and checks it but also enjoys the benefits of their privilege and uses it to the fullest extent they can? Ps I love your blog its a real kick in the pants and an eye opener <3

If you’re using your privilege to the fullest extent you can, you’re probably stepping on oppressed people and not doing a very good job of checking yourself.

That said, I don’t think it’s necessarily wrong to enjoy privilege.

Thanks! <3

yeah, but I think agism is actually one that works both ways?????/ Like older people can’t get jobs, younger people are treated like they’re auto incompetent???????? IDK, it’s one of those things where I think people use it really out of context

Yeah, it definitely can be applied to the elderly as well.

What are your thoughts on ageism / "adultism" against youth? I've seen no consensus in the SJ community. Based on what I've personally experienced, and how age seems to intersect with other identities, I'm inclined to say it is real oppression -- but as a thin, white, able-bodied, neurotypical, cishet guy I shouldn't be going around deciding what is and isn't oppression.

I think it exists but I’ve also seen people call ageism on stupid shit. Like, if you dare suggest that someone young might be somewhat inexperienced suddenly there’s cries of ‘ageism!’. I think that’s bullshit. There are, however, genuine examples of it.

i don't know if you ever read strawberry panic but it's 3 novels about these all girls boarding schools and it's one of the better known yuri things and it's really cute and if you liked utena maybe you'd like it? there's a couple problematic elements but it's still good

also if you do decide to look at strawberry panic read the books before watching the anime the anime is okay but the books are better

I’ve heard of it, but it doesn’t really interest me. It wasn’t really the homosexual romance aspect alone that made me love Utena so much. Thanks for suggesting it, though!

Today I wore a dress to school for the first time and as this one kid was talking to me he started stroaking my thight I remembered that one gif and poured my whole lemonade on his hand and arm, it felt so good :)

Haha, awesome. Hot coffee like in the gif would have been nicer, but lemonade will have to do.

hey uh sorry if this sounds stupid, but i have a question about body positivity/thin privilege. i know thin people dont really have a say in issues surrounding body negativity and fat shaming because of their privilege, but what if they've experienced an eating disorder? like, does someone that has/had an ED have a bit more say in conversations like that (especially people with bdd)?its just something that hits home with me because i had an ED and i usually get very invested in conversations

(continued) that surround body image because it still affects me a lot, and i’d like to know my place in a sense. im sorry if this sounds ignorant/annoying

Your voice on the topic of body positivity in general is fine, it’s when you get into fat acceptance and thin privilege that you need to check yourself.

What do you think of Rhianna's "Princess of China" stuff? Is that cultural appropriation too?

Yep.

I got married to the most wonderful man in the world at age 20 after being a secretary for a year, he makes good money and we travel together we are strong conservative pro life Catholics and i DO believe it is a woman's job to take care or children,I do not believe in birth control and I have 5 of my own and more to come :) We live a 1950s esque life style (even the music and tv shows we watch) and everyone is happy... Now my feminist friend said this was sexist... Do you think so, and how?

Stop policing what other people do with their uteruses and what grows in them.

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? FUCK OFF NIKE

CATTLE PRODS USED ON PROTESTING FEMALE WORKERS AT NIKE FACTORY

FEMALE WORKERS ABUSED, OVERWORKED AND UNDERPAID AT INDONESIAN NIKE FACTORIES

WOMEN ATTACKED, TORTURED, MOLESTED BY BOSSES AT NIKE FACTORY IN VIETNAM

WOMEN SEXUALLY HARRASSED, OVER WORKED, UNDERPAID, FIRED FOR BEING PREGNANT IN BANGLADESH

Nike - exploiting women, commodifying feminism

well this took a turn

I’m always still shocked whenever I see people wearing Nikes like they’re cool.

Reblogging for commentary.
