Awww, Fuck you, 2/9/09

This is my new segment entitled, Aww, Fuck you.

Now, typically, I don't gain any pleasure from putting others down, in fact, it usually makes me feel worse. But every so often, someone or some group, does something so stupid, that, it boggles my mind.

The first perp is

People who say 'There is no reason to ever hit a woman'

I have one thing to say to you. Fuck you.

Fuck you and your high misogynistic high horse. (Redundancy anyone? I think so!)

..

"Misogynists?", my imagined you asking. "If they don't want to hit women, how could they possibly be misogynists?"

Simple. First and foremost, they accuse women of being fragile, and special.

Hint: We're not.

Second, this, gender specific notion (Men can be hit without the same kind of social repercussions) details, or follows, from the past, ancient articles. Specifying that women, were property of their husband, or their father, if they hadn't married yet. So, striking a woman, was akin to burning someone's house down.

Hint: Women aren't property.

Third, it's fucking sexist. If a woman hits a man, a man has all right to hit the women with the same amount of force. Likewise, if a man hits a woman, she has all right to hit him back.

Men: You don't have to fucking protect us.
Women: If you think we need protecting, grow the fuck up.

Note: I don't advocate violence at all, just this particular notion struck an angry chord in my egalitarian body.
