okay no

everything about that is wrong

I think once you start having 216 rules, you might not actually be all that much fun to hang out with.

i think an exception should be made re: Rule 216 for the gentlemen with a stomping fetish

I decided to be playful with gender roles today and when the elevator arrived at our floor and the two dudes who were right in front of the doors stepped back and away from the doors so I could enter first, even though I was farther away and they were there first, I just stood there. We had a standoff until the doors started to shut and I caved and got on because the elevators in our building are super slow and I was really hungry.

In conclusion, feminism is dead.

Yeh, how the hell is sticking to old-fashioned gender roles "playful"? Being "playful" with gender roles is Madonna wearing a suit and tie.

I thought the bend-over boyfriend trend was the end game of "playful with gender roles"

Is that some new doll?

people call it wordplay when somebody mispronounces something in a song

people r dumb

i think the being "playful with gender" sentiment is just a shading on the "humorless feminist" stereotype?

he hit me and it felt like a playful

i dunno, maybe it's "playful" in the way where they all dress up like Mad Men characters and revel in the superficial pleasures of midcentury gender roles? i have no fucking clue tbh

someone should do a parody of one of these that describes the series of chemical reactions started off by the sry gene in the y chromosome

fucking weird

I like to imagine that same guy standing over his cowering gal shouting "GIGGLE FOR ME! ONLY FOR ME!"

that one just reminds me of the weezer song

rivers cuomo is not a dude whose attitudes toward women one would want to emulate

he seems to have some ideas about people with southeast asian heritage iirc

heh - both of the last two posts def true based on things I've heard from someone who was on tour with him

I don't know if touring musician-time is something I would fully judge someone on.

Fucked up life.

I guess but still.

also

I appreciated the girltip about menstrual blood because I have been letting it run down my legs and pool into my socks and never understood why people avoided me for five days each month.

lol <3

- I usually hold the door for people out of politeness, not out of any 'hay look I'm a lady and I'm holding the door for dudez'...but over time I've sort of learned that especially with older, like 60+ fellas, it's like some genetic chivalric duty and they wither to dust if they are denied (or they get really mad)...but I'm not above having a door opened for me either. It's not like I'll refuse. But if my male friends try to be all, "no you go first" when I hold the door I get bolshy and yell at them til they go through the door. Because it's fun.

A man is a person. "Woman" is a breed.

couldn't help notice that the titles of the gentlemen / lady rule blogs subtly echo this ^^

The Rules of A Gentleman (singular) vs. The Rules of Ladies (plural)

(sure ok it's probably a url availability thing but it's cultural implications did not escape my hypervigilant eye, no sir)

Gross.

"plus, ribs are delicious"

This stuff all reminds me of the Mormon-penned manuals for teen girls my mom would buy me, except without tips on French braids and testimonies.

oh i'm sure tips about French braids and testimonies are in there if you search long enough
