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.”

I wonder what that barters for in a SHTF scenario? (Let alone how it feeds someone in normal circumstances...)

And I bet if a man finds breasts repugnant, then that’s “sexist” too.

BTW, I wonder if a man’s likes and dislikes towards thighs, necks and drumsticks is relevant to his putative “sexism” as well?

Large breasts do not always make a woman attractive, beauty is only skin deep and ugly goes deep to the bone. Which one covers Jenika again?

My wife says she can’t stand women who show off their boobs then pretend to get pissed when they catch a man looking at them. If you don’t want me to look, don’t flash me.

Women only want to be looked at by men THEY find desirable.

If an undesirable man looks at their display, they regard it as "creepy", "offensive" and "harassment". They are insulted by the idea that you think YOU are the kind of man they are trying to get to look at them.

At first glance seeing the “neuro” part and then divergent, I thought it might have meant the person’s head was split in two. And in reality the person’s brain is split in a number of parts, all equally stupid.

Once again, they misappropriate terminology to suit their agenda. Cis- and trans- are chemical terms for isomers (compounds with the same chemical formula but with different properties. Isomers require a C=C double bond structure, e.g. dimethyl but-2-ene or a cyclic compound, like 1,2-Dichlorocyclohexane.

If the substituent radicals (replacing hydrogen)are on the same side of the C=C plane, it is a cis-isomer.

If the substituent radicals (replacing hydrogen)are on the opposite side of the C=C plane, it is a trans-isomer.

It is improper to use the terms cis- and trans- to refer to sexuality or gender.
