Muslim Women Shockingly Not Grateful for Topless European Ladies Trying To Save Them

152. I found the headline pretty offensive, but didn't go apeshit, LOL.

But I got attacked for questioning whether it's the best way to go. Or, if the attention you're getting is worth it if no one actually reads the article or has no way to support your effort. I was accused of being outraged, and called names just for wondering if it's an effective method. Yet the article posted was talking about the same things. Funny, huh?

I was berated by a bunch of people who basically didn't give a shit about Tunisia until the protest bothered someone they don't like. (not me) So a few suddenly pretended to believe patriarchy does exist (in the ME, anyway) and feminist battles (overseas only, I guess) are suddenly really really important! They came to the conclusion that if you're a white woman in America, you have first world problems, and are not allowed to have opinions on methods of feminist protests- even if your opinions are similar to the ones posted in the article. LOL.

So, the dust up was basically a bunch of bullshit created to attack a few people here who are routinely targeted and lots of others get dragged into it. There were a few genuine people trying to discuss issues, but it made it really hard when people are calling names and flinging bullshit about authoritarian prudishness. Yeah, that kind of nonsense happens every time a few feminists try and have a discussion here.
