I’m a feminist, but I skirt around the outside of most feminists-only discourse. Mostly because I have no stomach for the closed-minded, rabid bulldog-like sense of absolutism and righteousness I keep bumping into. Nitpicking also drives me apeshit, especially when doing so alienates people who are in your corner.
An eye for an eye just ends in a room full of blind people, and gets nobody nowhere.
Le sigh.
Anyways, along those lines, I found this quote off Photoshop Disasters extremely funny:
By renormalizing the model’s waistline, Maxim Mexico takes a bold socio-political stance in the ongoing battle of the politics of representation, clearly referencing the oppressive reification of male-gaze heteronormative modes of synthesis in a semiotic blancmange of post-structural teakettle barbecue hatstand fishmonger.
