Writing about gender, power, and privilege

@ZigZagZoom It’s kind of ironic, but male strippers tend to be more objectified than female strippers, but people are less concerned by it in general. They make considerably less, and get groped a lot more. Women watching a male stripper will sometimes grab at his genitals in a way that men watching a female stripper wouldn’t dare. I suppose it’s because the male strippers don’t feel as threatened.

@VooDooDolly I’m out of time and will have to reply later.

@revanrulesrussia I’d appreciate it if you’d stop the childish name-calling.

Id apperciate it if you would go away and stop harrasing me.

@P_Tigras, I’ve always thought that, there does seem to be from an observer point of view more respect for a female stripper on stage then a male one.

@RRR, that’s kind of an extreme statement, there are inbetweens and it varies depending on the situation. I rarely enjoy being ogled (which in my opinion is very different from being appreciated as an attractive person.) but I’ve only got berserk once, mainly i just find it borderline amusing and a little pathetic. (that might be too harsh of a word but i can’t think of a better one.)

@revanrulesrussia I would have had you not started up again by saying:

I know. For all you idiots out there (P Tigras) I was joking.

So you have only yourself to blame.

WILL YOU JUST STOP? YOU ARE GETTING BORDERLINE ANNOYING.

Anyway, where were we?

@RRR Something about male strippers, I think.

0_0 Im staying out of this.

XD Feel free to suggest a new topic then.

Ok. New topic. What about…you make one ZZZ.

I did the last one! Plus I have no idea what’s already been discussed i should really go read through all the old posts.

Ok. Topic is women in the military.

Don’t understand why anyone has issues with that.

Some people think that women are weak and will just get shot. I disagree withthat entirely. Woman are capable of fighting. At what cost though? If they are captured…the torture involves rape most likely. And then rape in the barracks-unacceptable.

@RRR Torture of men also often involve rape.

But that is only if their is a gay guy there.

Or has that become standard interrorgation techniques now?

In the English Army women are banned from fighting on the front lines due to studies that show men will try to protect women at the risk of the missions. Not saying i think that’s right or anything just a statement.

That is true. Chivalry and all.

@RRR Not really, raping men tends to demoralise them. And torturers know that.
