sexism, lets play.

178. Sure you have.

You just either A) won't admit it, B) wouldn't characterize it as such, or C) are particularly fine with it because... well who knows? Any of those three things don't amount to much to me because I have stated a simple fact. It's there for everyone to see in many threads to interpret as they see fit, as I have here.

As far as "defining" feminism, no intervention on my or anyone else's part is required for this. It is, as they say, what it is. What you don't get to do is redefine it for personal or philosophical expedience.

Yes, she did attack Amina. She did it by going after people who supported her actions. And whether she or you are prepared to admit it or not, in so doing, she set herself in opposition of stated feminist purpose. Oh maybe not YOUR purpose, maybe not SEA'S purpose, but definitely the purpose of feminism on the grander scale. It was a blatantly solipsistic, ego-feeding pursuit of an ongoing vendetta against those in this place that won't toe the line with her brand of sex-negative, male-negative feminism. Whether that be men, or third-wave feminists, or whomever else she perceives as an enemy.

As far as BS, I invite people to call it out when they see it, but to whit, you might go and look at just WHO is in opposition to both your and sea's tirades and finger wagging. DU is generally applauding Amina's actions and taking your ilk to task for your typical deflections and derailing. That, I'VE noticed.

Nothing I've said is bullshit. Granted it is my opinion, and thus not inerrant fact, of course, but it is based on facts very publicly in evidence, and therefore not bullshit. Claiming it is in some attempt to deflect legitimate criticism of someone's words and actions is a transparent act of rhetorical desperation by someone who apparently feeds at the same poisoned philosophical trough as the person she's defending.

Have a nice day.
