    Default Feministing Community Posts and Anti-feminist Feminists

    I recently and for a while most of the comments were respectful, then all of a sudden the anti-sex feminists and the anti-feminist feminists whip out with the 'you don't know what you are doing to yourself' bullshit, and I was incredibly irked.

    Why do feminists look down their noses are sex workers? They wonder why many sex workers want fuck all to do with feminism. Why do they think they can tell me what my standards should be, when they are fighting against preset standards, then 'slut-shame' (to use a Feministing.com term) me to hell and back?

    Bah.

    You know how it is, if you don't follow a certain path (i.e. hard-working, independent, career-minded, anti-patriarchy type) some feminists will find a way to chastise you.

    After doing some research, I realized my beliefs fell in with Individualist feminism- so that is what I 'claim'. It's unfortunate that we are so split up when there is a common goal to achieve but that is human nature.

    Shake your ass and preserve your heritage.
    Bang those fucking drums.
    Do it for the present and future generations.
    Have fun and stick it to the man at the same time.

    Well. Why do sex workers use words like "anti-sex feminist" to describe someone who is against the commodification of sexuality? I mean you are kind of doing the same thing, aren't you? Dismissing someone derisively and categorically and without any attention paid to her viewpoint because it doesn't suit your agenda? I've said this before, but I hate that term. To me it seems heavily related to the people used to called them hairy-legged homely women, and a breath away from calling someone frigid because they don't agree with you.

    I agree that "you don't know what you are doing to yourself" is... well, it's just poor rhetoric, because who is it meant to convince? Me?

    It's a serious problem in the feminist community. I'm sick to death of those idiots who claim to represent the community but reinforce anti-woman rhetoric. Just remember, the loudest, fewest members of any given movement are usually also the complete batshit crazy yokels who claim to represent it in the world. There are many feminists who are simply quiet online because we don't want to deal with the batshit yokels.
