Highlight:

Posting porn in comments on feminist articles is a misogynistic attack. [View all] redqueen Aug 2014 OP

Are people doing this? HERVEPA Aug 2014 #1

There is a thread discussing these attacks at Jezebel. redqueen Aug 2014 #4

so why bring it here? Nobel_Twaddle_III Aug 2014 #177

What do you think discussion forums are for?nt sufrommich Aug 2014 #179

Just questioning the motivation. Nobel_Twaddle_III Aug 2014 #180

Why? Iris Aug 2014 #196

A bold and obvious stance LostInAnomie Aug 2014 #2

It could be a misogynistic attack MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #3

Much as posting racist remarks on the NAACP website could simply be garden variety trolling...? LanternWaste Aug 2014 #7

No, because racist remarks are ipso facto, racist. MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #10

Racism may be rationalized by the user as easily as porn... LanternWaste Aug 2014 #12

I suppose that there are gray areas for both MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #19

A swastika painted on a synagogue may be simple graffiti, or it may be racist by your measure... LanternWaste Aug 2014 #45

Not really. MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #63

I feel the same way as you do, Manny. CTyankee Aug 2014 #90

And you really think... TDale313 Aug 2014 #132

For the 18th time, *violent* porn is not mentioned in the OP MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #156

Yes, this was clearly a response... TDale313 Aug 2014 #175

*Anything* creating a hostile environment is wrong MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #184

Even in the OP... TDale313 Aug 2014 #188

Words have meanings. MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #189

I won't speak for the OP... TDale313 Aug 2014 #193

Posting porn on a feminist website is an act of hostility that is inherently misogynistic. pnwmom Aug 2014 #208

Agreed. Anytime porn is published on a non-porn site, it is a form of sexual harassment. n/t pnwmom Aug 2014 #207

you give us a hard time if we don't get your OP's CreekDog Aug 2014 #178

I shouldn't. MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #185

Violent porn gifs on a feminist site are inherently misogynistic. Gormy Cuss Aug 2014 #148

Violent porn gifs are not mentioned in the OP MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #154

Okay then, let's limit it to the generic "porn gifs" mentioned in the OP Gormy Cuss Aug 2014 #171

Stop trying to put this in the context of what so commonly happens when women blog on the internet! bettyellen Aug 2014 #192

Not by the Hindus intaglio Aug 2014 #201

Why was it important for you to minimize the seriousness of this? pnwmom Aug 2014 #105

It wasn't and isn't. MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #120

You felt the need to defend the creeps by saying you think it is "possible" pnwmom Aug 2014 #133

I wasn't defending anybody. MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #140

You just don't get it. n/t pnwmom Aug 2014 #142

You say terrible things, can't back them with facts, then MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #152

So you minimize the misogyny but blame others for pointing it out and play the victim. Well played KittyWampus Aug 2014 #143

That is a matter of opinion. Regardless, when it is posted in the comments about feminist issues redqueen Aug 2014 #16

I disagree. MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #22

We will just have to disagree then. nt redqueen Aug 2014 #25

Manny. Your mom called. She wants you to clean up under your bed. littlemissmartypants Aug 2014 #30

Any act of posting porn in the comments section of Jezebel is misogynistic.n/t pnwmom Aug 2014 #161

First off, suppose I posted a screen frame from a porno film in response MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #164

Yes. Posting an image of porn is different from having a discussion of issues involved in porn. pnwmom Aug 2014 #168

It is when it's used with the intent of mocking or humiliating a woman. nomorenomore08 Aug 2014 #95

Rape porn is always misogynistic. pnwmom Aug 2014 #104

"Rape porn" was not mentioned in the OP MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #135

The poster specifically mentioned Jezebel in her next post, #4. pnwmom Aug 2014 #137

First off, if that's what she meant in the OP, then she should update her OP MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #144

+1,000,000 ... 000 HuckleB Aug 2014 #206

if you change the details of the incident CreekDog Aug 2014 #176

It is a type of trolling. MISOGYNIST trolling using MISOGYNISTIC attacks. nt redqueen Aug 2014 #8

It's both. ZombieHorde Aug 2014 #26

The OP just said "porn", not "rape pix" MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #27

I have not personally seen the pornographic posts, ZombieHorde Aug 2014 #37

I don't know *what* they are. MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #66

Not assuming motivation is wise, in my opinion, ZombieHorde Aug 2014 #68

It's not either/or: it's misogynistic trolling. n/t pnwmom Aug 2014 #102

Is it happening at DU or does this refer to the Jezebel article? n/t FSogol Aug 2014 #5

The Jezebel article redqueen Aug 2014 #9

I'm not sure it was minimized. People suggested tech solutions, which while however unsatisfying, FSogol Aug 2014 #84

Not talking about those who refused to address rhe cause rather than the symptoms... redqueen Aug 2014 #86

People *refused* to address the cause? MannyGoldstein Aug 2014 #147

what is it called when you post two hours of cats meowing? snooper2 Aug 2014 #6

The fact that there is such a thing as a sufrommich Aug 2014 #11

I agree. The fact that people defend that shit is just another indication redqueen Aug 2014 #13

Please, take it up with 4chan and /b/ Electric Monk Aug 2014 #23

I will discuss it here. nt redqueen Aug 2014 #44

I don't think it's confined to those creeps. Even if they're among the worst. nomorenomore08 Aug 2014 #98

I was not talking about the images posted in a thread Blue_Adept Aug 2014 #24

But it doesn't even make any sense leftstreet Aug 2014 #34

I have no idea why they were posted. Blue_Adept Aug 2014 #36

You wanted to talk about women enjoying rape leftstreet Aug 2014 #41

No. If those people want to film themselves pretending to engage in a hate crime for kicks redqueen Aug 2014 #21

Why not? Blue_Adept Aug 2014 #28

Presenting violence against women as sexy and arousing is FUCKED UP. INDEFENSIBLE. redqueen Aug 2014 #39

That's fine. Blue_Adept Aug 2014 #42

Perhaps you aren't aware, but rape porn has been defended here many times redqueen Aug 2014 #48

Rape is a crime,not a sexual aid. sufrommich Aug 2014 #29

I don't doubt it Blue_Adept Aug 2014 #33

And yet you're defending the posting of rape porn on a site like Jezebel, pnwmom Aug 2014 #162

Why does someone have to bring up historylovr Aug 2014 #190

is this why you had a problem with cali posting a thread about the rape threat pm she got ? JI7 Aug 2014 #35
