Fuck THIS!
I'm sorry, but that use of the word "fuck" seems derogatory against women.

Need I explain the particular nuances of my assertion? :shrug:

1. I really don't see it that way (and I'm a woman)
Like "suck this," it can be directed at either sex, no?

2. I tend to agree -- there is an overemphasis
On making the recipient of the act represent some kind of loser . . . is that what it is?

And then of course they talk about the "feminization" of America, as if there is nothing worse than feminine qualities, as if feminine qualities will be the destruction of the universe.

And then we have Arnold, calling people "girlie men" and saying it means "they can't make tough decisions."

It is all misogyny to me . . .

3. Don't see it
"Feminization" as a bad thing is sexist, yes.
"Girlie-man" is definately sexist, yes.
"Fuck" as directed at the RECIPIENT...aren't both partners the recipient if it's done right? Unless it's dark and you miss...

15. on the surface, that's true
Edited on Sat Jul-31-04 02:45 PM by jukes
freeper male-dominant types probably do see it that way (DAMN you, arwalden, haven't been able to abbreviate "probably" since your post in the grammar nazi thread!)

more enlightened liberals don't see it in such an invasive sense: women can "fuck" men, for example.

a more succinct & invasive term wd, perhaps, be "rape you", or "rape this"; but even that is not as sexist as it seems. male>male rape certainly occurs more often than is acknowledged since it goes unreported. this is definitely a crime that more frequently victimizes woman, though, & as such, i'd find the term more offensive.
