Feminist Mag: Like Breasts? Then You're a Sexist
Pundit Press ^ | 4/5/15 | Aurelius

Posted on 04/05/2015 5:08:30 PM PDT by rightistight

A feminist magazine has declared that men who like breasts are sexist.

In an article titled, “So You’re a ‘Breasts Man’? Here Are 3 Reasons That Could Be Sexist,” Jenika McCrayer explains why men who are sexually attracted to women with breasts are misogynists.

McCrayer explains that “under a patriarchal system… we’re taught to believe that the female body exists solely for a man’s sexual pleasure and entertainment.” She then explains several reasons why liking breasts is a bad thing.

First, “It Dangerously Conflates Attraction and Fetishization.” She explains, “breasts are not solely for aesthetic or sexual purposes. They have a function. And there are painful consequences to fetishizing body parts associated with womanhood.”

More than that, “it’s cisnormative to equate breasts with femininity and womanhood. Not everyone who has breasts is a woman, and not all women have breasts.”

Second, “Fetishization Leads to Objectification and Dehumanization.” McCrayer writes, “Reducing people to their anatomy creates this space that some if not most of us exist outside of because we don’t fit into the male gaze’s narrow categories of what it means to be attractive or a woman.”

Cisnormative? Cisonormative? Cis-normative?

Are any of those actual words?

BTW, bounteous breasts cover a multitude of imperfections.

“Cisnormative” = you think that men and women being attracted to one another is normal. Which it is.

You know what biches?

If you're a feminist...you're a sexist.

If you're queer...you're a sexist.

Gimme a break!

Breasts serve an important function. They allow men to observe from a distance "Hey, there's a sexually-mature woman over there!". By size, shape, and level of droop they give indications of age and how well nourished the woman is.

Same with other features: long healthy hair indicates a women who has been healthy and well-nourished for an extended period of time. A nice figure demonstrates a physically-fit woman who can keep up on hunting and foraging expeditions. Etc, etc.

Beauty indicates a healthy mother for your children.

Whew! And to think McCrayer is a woman we may have thought looked good in a bar after several drinks! Dodged that one, thank goodness.

Robert Heinlein once observed "More than a mouthful is superfluous".

Her "male" co writers on the feminist magazine:

And one of the typical "females" on the staff:

Kris Nelson is a trans, queer, neurodivergent witch trying to make their way in LA. They hold a BA in Gender, Sexuality, and Women’s Studies from the University of Vermont, where they were heavily involved in on campus activism, including becoming one of the co-founders of UVM C.U.N.T.S (College Undergrads Not Tolerating Sexism). Post-graduation, Kris has been immersing themselves in the Aridian Tradition of Italian witchcraft and continuing to explore the ways their faith, practice, and politics intermingle. Kris also runs an online store by the name of Spell-Bound, where they sell handcrafted wire work jewelry, crystal pendants, hand sewn tarot bags, and pendulums.

I wish "them" luck. It helps to be nuts, but not that nuts.
