Why is sexism cool? It would be shameful for anyone accused to be a racist, yet to be sexist is borderline encouraged, especially for teenage boys who feel the pressure of having to feel manly in front of others. Real men would make girls their bitches and hoes, they say.
I am mad because some of my guy friends like to suggest that its normal and expected for girls to regularly give blowjobs while its considered "disgusting" for guys to go down on girls. Double-standard much? Let me give you some other examples: guys pressure girls to swallow cum ("spitters are quitters"), yet somehow they forget that girls may find that the most unpleasant task in the world, and see it as a chore. Why should women have to feel that way, as if its always about pleasing a man?? Another example would be of women having to shave all the time for fear of being labeled "unclean" or "hippies", as if to not shave makes a girl dirty. So why aren't men considered dirty, and furthermore why are they encouraged to have more hair while women have to spend the time, effort and MONEY to please others. Its fine if one wants to shave, but its not fine when a girl feels the need to be hairless in order to not be considered 'dirty' or unclean. These atrocious double-standards make me so mad because sex is not something often talked about in 'civilized' society, so there is more of the traditional sexist views left in the dust of a supposedly modern and equal world. It's so not cool!!!!!! But I feel like I'm talking to an empty crowd.
Even while writing this I feel like I will be written off as a crazy, radical, butch/lesbian, overly-feminist, cat-lady bitch, but that's the point that makes me sad and mad. People should open their eyes to this overt gap between respect towards males and females, instead of blaming these kinds of rants for making ridiculous and uncomfortable arguements.
Okay, peace.
