Feminist Author: White Men Need to Stop Writing So Much

"You -- white men -- have all the advantages here, so you should work to solve the problem of imbalance, instead of putting all the burden on women, POC, and LGBTQ to fix it themselves."

"Fixed" is pretty much the solution that looms, but we will finish first.

[Disambiguator]

This is satire, right? Please tell me this is satire!

[wideawake]

Anyone who refers to himself as a "poet" is not actually a poet.

He writes verse.

Time will tell if what he writes is poetry or not.

[wideawake]

I agree with you, but I had just assumed the two examples you cited were women.

[I want the USA back]

What ugly-a$$ b!tc* means is that men should be subject to women.

From a scarred veteran of the field - it really helps to get your foot in a publisher's (or even an agent's) door if you're NOT white and male. They're looking to sell. White males aren't as marketable. It's the facts on the ground.

That said, there is little more demeaning in any art as to demand your competitors stifle themselves because you can't compete with them.

+1!

In this case I agree. White males that are concerned about white male privilege (otherwise known as idiots) should write less. In fact, to overcome the imbalance cause by white males that do not believe in white male privilege, the idiots should completely stop writing.

Oh Shit!

Jus’ Damn!

I’m White!

I’m Male!

I Am!

I believe “feminist” authors should stop writing, talking...and breathing.

[SgtBob]

[hal ogen]

Thanks!

[SgtBob]

No trouble, Hal. Did ya like mah poem? Heck I might go pro...ya know, snappin’ fingers, wearin’ a beret.....oh, an’ the venti expresso...

[Zeneta]

I bet the guy has writer’s block.

Yep.

He has extended what remains of his logical process

found support among peers and concluded, to write less.

[CatherineofAragon]

"I am a white, male poet—a white, male poet who is aware of his privilege and sensitive to inequalities facing women, POC, and LGBTQ individuals in and out of the writing community...."

Translation (high-pitched squealing voice):

"I'm one of the good ones! See, I have my mind right! I know you're going to like me!"

And he got smacked right in the face anyway. Serves his pathetic butt right.

[GOPJ]

It’s a tie.

[ViLaLuz]

women, POC, and LGBTQ

What the heck is POC?

[hal ogen]

LOL

"...I believe “feminist” authors should stop writing, talking...and breathing..."

The Grumpy Cat meme would say to feminist authors "You should give blood - All of it".
