I seem to have missed the decree that lame attempts at humor shall result in being publicly repudiated and exiled from the Feminist Sisterhood.

Am I allowed to blame the patriarchy for that, too?

*of course everything they describe is not limited to gays, either mechanically or in practice, but no matter.

Orally pleasuring a man is inherently disgusting, yet the same is not true for pelasuring a woman. Instead of discussing why this is be true, having a meaningful discussion about oppression and subjugation, or even the mechanics of the act, the threads are one long written version of Twisty’s Disgusting Penis photo collages. The photos are funny; the belittlement is not.

One of the symptoms of this blowjob debate virus is, it seems, a compulsion to play Chinese Whispers. Here is a thread from the damn forum I can’t leave alone, in which the so-called ignorance fighters have seen fit to extrapolate an argument from the Broadsheet summary, attack said extrapolation, and then pat themselves on the back for defying the Feminist Sex Police. I would have thought it was like trying to determine the literary merits of a book by simply reading the Cliffs Notes, but maybe I’m missing something.

I’d question them on this, or else congratulate them on standing up to the scary straw-feminists, but I blew my guest membership last year. If anyone else can be arsed to it’d be amusing, I reckon. The odour of smugness in there is quite asphyxiating.

Disgust is a subjective human reaction. It is impossible for anything to be “objectively disgusting,” in the same sense that nothing can be “objectively boring.”

Ah. Probably not. All I can hope for is that since she has the link to Twisty she will, in time, learn.

I’d attempt to set them straight — unfortunate though that phrase is — or perhaps congratulate them on their bravery for sucking whatever they want to despite the scary straw-feminists threatening to make it illegal, but I already blew my guest membership last year. Damn.
