Porn and Double Standards
I'm stealing yet another post. This time the post comes from Combat Misandry who tells us that women have double standards when it comes to men and porn:
DOUBLE STANDARDS: PORN AND BACHELORETTE PARTIES
The radical feminists preach that porn hurts women.
Consider this vile hysterical reaction of a woman who said she would
consider aborting her own son if she knew he would,
heaven forbid, masturbate to porn as a teenager.
-----------------------
". . . I understand why a woman might say that if she
had known her son would use pornography, she might
have thought twice before going through with her
pregnancy . . . . Yes, I do. Because pornography hurts
women, and as women, we are under no obligation to
participate in any way in what harms us and other
women."
----------------------------
Of course, only men use and traffic in porn, isn't
that correct? That's the unmistakeable impression one
gets from reading the radical feminist blogs.
The fact is, if you want to see raunch, look at the
pictures that are strewn across the internet of
bachelorette parties thrown by young women for young
women who have, presumably, made a promise to marry
some man. These affairs often contain "penis" imagery
that is as far from the art of Michelangelo's David as
one could imagine. They serve up penis cakes, some
despicintg erect members, and some with icing that is
supposed to simulate ejaculate. They have penis party
favors. They play cards with naked men cards, and leer
at Playgirl magazines.
Of course, this is entirely different because it's in
the spirit of fun (and men looking at naked female
bodies is not fun, it's work?). And the feminists
claim that women are not "objectifying" men (no? A
woman is marrying a man, and the imagery strewn about
these parties is common to all men, but somehow that's
not objectifying?). Female porn subjugates and
oppresses women, they claim. But it's somehow OK for
women to have naked men playing cards with pictures of
erect guys; it's OK for them to whistle and scream in
daytime talk show audiences when a man takes his shirt
off. Ask any young woman what she wants in a man and
one of the things will be "good looking." All of that
is OK.
Let's be honest. It's different for men because men
get sexually aroused at the sight of a beautiful
woman. Sorry, ladies, that's a fact. It makes women
uncomfortable. Without the male sex drive they
considered so vile, there'd be few children. Too bad
feminists find us so disgusting.
