Sigh. Really? Why do all memes about
girls imply that they are
dumb and slutty? Look, we understand a having sense of humor is important, but these just feel downright
mean-spirited and offensive. (The first one below is probably one of the most awful things I’ve ever read.) The memes are described as “women logic” and “
hypocrite feminist” by the people
who create them. If they actually pointed out any actual hypocrisy regarding feminism it might be funny. For example, one here reads: “Demands Equal Rights. Expects The Man To Pay.” That is actually pretty funny and does point out the misguided thinking of a few women.
However, for the most part, these blame the victims of rape, say it’s OK to hit women, insist feminism means women want special treatment (as opposed to equality for ALL), that women only want male attention, and that feminists only exist to hate men. They’re just gross and not funny. There is no punchline. The only punchline we can make out is: “Aren’t women just awful bitches!”

These memes are hilarious and true. Prove me wrong. You can’t.
degrading to women?! well maybe alittle bit, but these are seriously how men see women these days. Maybe its time women actually did some apologizing. the whole lets go girls and fight the power with our angry vaginas is getting old. you will NEVER be classified as anything higher then children by doing that.
Lets seperate these for a moment, you are forgetting the age old saying no smoke without fire. Rape is never excusable and making light of it is pretty disgusting, however you can’t lump all of these into the same category.
Some are pretty right on the mark. As a woman I have seeing other women cry victim without justification, “Men are big dumb apes” from women somehow slides and nobody bats an eyelid, yet a man calling a woman “bimbo” is somehow so much worse. People forget sexism is prejudice and stereotypes based on gender (doesn’t specify which gender, but people forget it goes both ways).
Liz said: “A lot of these are actually true for women in our society, such as the ‘I can slap you in the face because I’m angry, you slap me in the face because you’re a woman beater’ and ‘insulting men is okay, insulting women is sexist’. Men are bashed a lot too, not just women. Open your eyes, sexism works both ways.”
Acting the victim unnecessarily “Boohoo I’m a poor little woman I can’t defend myself from anything because I’m weak.” doesn’t sound very empowering to women / we-can-do-it-feminist to me.
And frankly as a Woman I want equality… REAL equality, the good and the bad of it. I want equal pay, and if I get hit back when I strike out in anger I won’t claim ‘woman beater’. Some women get equality confused with privelige, and honestly it disgusts me to the pit of my uterus.
I completely agree with the “wears tiny strips of cloth, whines about being stared at” Some others are funny too. Only like 2 of these are EXTREMLY offensive, I believe the rest are all in a joking manner because men are tired of being treated like crap too. Men have feelings too.

In all honesty I think that guys are treated unfairly sometimes
These are jokes. Gurl is on crack again.
true dat
Some of them are actually somewhat true. The first one is disgusting and offensive. But, the rest are pretty much saying that some women activists are saying “Hey! I want to be treated equally, but still have all the perks of being a woman!” It gives girls a bad name. The stereotypes are very offensive, but the girls who keep assuming that “equal rights” only means equal pay and not being objectified but not equal work load and the death of chivalry (in a sense) needs to see that, in order to be treated equally, we have to actually WANT to be treated equally. I’m fine with my place in life because I’m a woman, I’m respected for my intelligence but, my guy friends (and family) see that I physically can’t do some stuff. That may or may not be because I’m a woman, but at least they don’t force me to do *ahem* “guy work” that I just don’t have the strength to do. There’s a lot of feminine roles I take, but it’s because I enjoy them. I like cooking and (some) cleaning and decorating. Wanna know something I noticed? When my brother has his friends over, they never make any jokes about my being a woman in the kitchen, even though they’re usually liberal with those jokes (when appropriate, and they’re never offensive to me), and do you wanna know why? Because I don’t obsess about “women’s rights” and when I make cookies, I give them some. A lot of people that are affected by jokes like this put themselves out there, they get their jimmies rustled at the mere thought that men target the weak link and make fun of them into submission — sound familiar, girls?
Like I said, the first one: horribly and terribly offensive.
The rest: really, they’re just overused. People need to grow up and realize that equal rights means they’ll actually be treated equally.
I totally agree!
You do realize that false rape accusations (to provide an alibi, get revenge or seek sympathy) make up 25-50% of all rape accusations in various studies?
And yes, it is true many rapes are not reported. That does not mean however that all reported rape cases are legitimate.
their just pictures!!!!!! i dont believe in any of these because i know its not the truth stop letting things like this put you in a bad mood dont let that bring you down geez!
Yeah some are okay but some made me mad
I don’t understand why jokes aren’t allowed to be offensive. I think all these memes or whatever are really for the greater good. SATIRE. There’s nothing wrong with making these pictures for the people who will actually understand them and realize how ridiculous society’s expectations and hopes are. Things like these offensive pictures are part of the road to a Great Society. Man, I feel like LBJ.
Red .you sound pretty proud. Like you did all those tnihgs yourself. How cute! But you don’t earn the right to rant until you’re at least out of your mom’s basement.P.S. They (excuse me, WE) did manage to ruin Nyan Cat.
How can any of you say that any of these are ok???? They are all degrading to women AND promoting stereotypes!! People deserve to dress in whatever manner they want and not be gawked at or objectified! People shouldn’t be hitting other people no matter the gender! The only thing worse than these pictures is the fact that people (women!!) are defending them! We should all agree that we deserve better (And as Jenna Marbles put it) “vaginas unite!”
Vaginas unite… how anti-cissexist of you…
