U of Oregon: Clothes that Fit Now a "Cis Privilege"
The Social Memo ^ | 3/24/17 | Aurelius

Posted on 03/24/2017 3:01:26 PM PDT by rightistight

According to articles the University of Oregon suggests students should read, clothes that fit are an example of "cis privilege" and, to "dismantle" whiteness and "cis privilege," capitalism should be "disrupted."

The University of Oregon has a separate site for their libraries. Included in this separate site are "research guides" to help students understand topics that the university has deemed important. One such research guide is "Transgender Studies & Cisgender Privilege."

The research guide then direct students to read a checklist of "cisgender privileges," saying, "The following web resources offer primers on what cisgender privilege means, and how to recognize & evaluate your own privileges."

Included on the list are: "6. Clothing works for me, more or less. I am a size and shape for which clothes I feel comfortable wearing are commonly made" and "23. My potential lovers expect my genitals to look roughly similar to the way they do, and have accepted that before coming to bed with me."

Another list that outlines "cisprivilege [sic]" claims that people use trans-gendered people as "a scapegoat for their own unresolved gender issues."

Other resources that the University of Oregon provides for their students is an article from "Feminist Campus" that outlines "7 Ways You Can Use Your Cisgender Privilege for Good."

Feminist Campus declares that people can "start dismantling oppressive systems," like "cis privilege" and "whiteness."

The article claims that "living in a society that is steeped in capitalism is hard." One of the best ways to help transgendered people, it says, is to "Disrupt capitalism and share what you may have to help your kindred!"

Mental derangement and disorder. Taxpayers should not have to foot the bill for this insanity.

The goal, you see, is not to elevate each individual to their highest potential, but rather to smash everyone down to the level of the lowest common denominator.

“Included on the list are: “6. Clothing works for me, more or less. I am a size and shape for which clothes I feel comfortable wearing are commonly made” and “23. My potential lovers expect my genitals to look roughly similar to the way they do, and have accepted that before coming to bed with me.”

1. This article makes absolutely no sense at all. Is this seriously what college professors are teaching these days? Mind-boggling.

2. You don’t like living in a society “steeped in capitalism”? Try visiting Venezuela, Cuba, or anyone who lived under Soviet Rule. You’ll see how great living in a society “steeped” in communism/socialism is. (not speaking to you, rightistight. :) )

Bread lines, food shortages; it truly is a paradise./s

Most of these graduates will end up in government or agency jobs for life.

Think about what that means.

"23. My potential lovers expect my genitals to look roughly similar to the way they do, and have accepted that before coming to bed with me."

Now I have visions of The Crying Game. And the same puking reaction.

Is sanity now a privilege? Or is being completly f-ing nuts the privileged position in this world?

Have to ask where and how you obtained whatever it is in order to share; maybe, you know, how Venezuela is doing it.

Clothes that fit are part of privilege.

Sounds like Maoism is a part of campus life.

The only solution now is to shut down the left-wing universities. Which might mean all public colleges. Yes, I am serious. We are reaching a tipping point of insanity here.

“6. Clothing works for me, more or less. I am a size and shape for which clothes I feel comfortable wearing are commonly made”

Translation: "I don't buy a size six when I am a size 18.

I work in a small business. One of the co-workers is a leftist. He has red hair. There’s crazy people all over the place.

This is beyond an insane asylum. It is an insane asylum in hell.
