Mohawks Rock

If I weren't a punk rocker I would still be treated differently for being a woman. You men can agree with me I know you can. Men aren't supposed to be skinny they're supposed to be burger-eating muscleheads and women are supposed to starve themselves to stay rail thin. IT FUCKING DISGUSTS ME. VENT HERE.

Ha, that was fucking awesome :D I really liked the gender breakdown, and for the most part, it's pretty accurate.

People are just stupid. We’re all expected to fit impossible standards and if we don’t fit any aspect of these gender stereotypes, we’re expected to believe that there’s something wrong with us and do everything in our power to change and bend until we meet some fucked up model of what the ideal guy or girl is supposed to be. There’s this book called pretty in punk: girls’ gender resistance in a boys subculture, by this chick Lauraine Leblanc, and at the beginning of the book she talks about the gender game, and how there is no way to win. How to be a mentally healthy adult woman is to be a mentally unhealthy adult, because traits that in a woman are considered good, are overall considered bad in the average adult. Things like passivity and docility, things that are expected of women. She also says “those who achieve the feminine ideal can only come to the “realization” that they are inferior, those who do not achieve the ideal must suffer the consequences of their “failure” in femininity.” and it’s not just girls who are subject to this kind of bull, guys are expected to fit certain standards of masculinity. There are so many restraints on everyone. What we can and can’t do, what we can and can’t wear, what we can and can’t say and who we can and can’t be. And if we break one of those stupid rules we’re not men, we’re not ladies. Societies expectations are just fucked up.

*adds book to wish list*

Ha Ha Ha. whine whine whine, yeah I was feeling pretty dragged down when I posted this. It's hard, but I wouldn't change for shit. 11 years strong and still goin!

Everyone gets dragged down at some point.

 

11 years strong is yet another point that has no relevance to anything that I can see or understand.

im not a muscle head. i eat burgers but im really skinny. i also take pride in my intelligence.

I think you are only making stereotypes of women worse.

 

The best way to beat common misconceptions is to not let them bother you and politely prove people wrong. And men and women are fairly equal in America from my point of view. I think that you are complaining for nothing. If you want to be a "burger-eating musclehead" then be it. I think that labeling yourself as a "punk rocker girl" is only giving you more of a reason for being upset. 

Ha Ha, no shit Sherlock! I fight stereotypes everyday. Men and women are completely equal? Wow, what rock are you living under? I don't know what world you're living in... turn on the tv, burger king commercials say it all. Society's fucking sick they built these stereotypes, they are possible to ignore, to exploit them is fighting back and going against them. Punk rocker girl? What the fuck I'm a woman ya chump douche bag! Ha Ha that's a weak ass faux hawk by the way, grow the fuck up and get back to me when ya get some sense knocked in ya!
not to start trouble but,,,,,,,OWNAGE,,LOL Andrea 1 Alexis 0

How did you come up with that score? Alexis provided a thought out and easily readable argument whilst Andrea's reply was an unreadable, illogical, and poorly planned mess. How can you take an argument from a person who considers burger king commercials to be an accurate representation of society's views on gender roles seriously?
