10 Things Every Intersectional Feminist Should Ask On a First Date
everday feminism ^ | 12/8/17 | Lara Witt

As a queer femme of color, I keep close relationships with people who go beyond allyship; they’re true accomplices in the fight against white supremacy, queerphobia, and misogyny. If you’re not going to support marginalized folks, then we can’t be friends, let alone date. The personal is political.

Beyond the lovely cushioning, happiness and support that we receive from our platonic relationships (which are, in all honesty, soul-feeding and essential), feminists also date! But there are questions we have to ask before we get close to someone.

The following list of questions is applicable to all relationships — certainly not just cisgender, heterosexual ones:

Yes, we can and will fine women out there that believe this stuff. When we do, we should thank them for eliminating themselves from consideration to be a part of our lives.

It’s probably one of the biggest favors we’ll get in our lifetime.

The vast majority of women don’t buy into this stuff. They want a strong alpha male that they can be confident in.

That doesn’t mean an inconsiderate slob, it just means a confident man that knows his role in society, and is also a person that will treat his mate with respect and love.

So thanks feminists. Good on you!

Intersectionality:

Racism necessarily co-exists with sexism, classism, able-ism.

So if you can accuse a person of any ONE of those, you can accuse them of the others, too.

Isn’t that nice..?

#1 should be: What do you presently have between your legs?

gotta start with the basics.

I haven’t the foggiest but am of the opinion that they should have a red ribbon tied around their tails warning people that they might kick or bite.

For a second there, I thought this was an op-ed by Barack Hussein Obama.

I would need a dictionary to date that woman. I dont know what many of those words mean.

I guess I could answer that I dont intentionally hurt people, physically or emotionally. I don’t intentionally discriminate against anyone based on anything other than experience with them.

And that I like sex. But I don’t show my junk to anyone until the fourth or fifth date.

(That last one will be a deal breaker.)

Finally, I would agree that BLM, if they agree that white male age discrimination is a “thing” too.

But after all that, I would be tired.

" If you’re not going to support marginalized folks, then we can’t be friends"

So the only way I can be your friend is if I support your decision to go to Hell. That's not a real friend.

I remember a satirical line from years ago, don't recall who but it could have been the National Lampoon - anyway it goes like this:
If you're not a black homosexual working class woman, you are an oppressor pig and deserve to die!
