Technically they are being sexist by having an all female clan. It's not sexist for them to be like "no boys allowed" yet if guys made one like "no women allowed" there would be a whole stink about it.
It's like racism. They can have a "blacksonly.com" but if there were a "whitesonly.com" it becomes racist. Or the more comely known; a movie "white men can't jump" is fine but if there was a movie called "black man can't swim" everyone would go ape shit and there would be lawsuits. It's just dumb.

I would watch black men can't swim

I would too. There are a lot of actors and comedians who could give too shits about racism and it's petty forms. Like Dave chappelle's blind black guy who's a KKK member lol, it's just funny. Hell even Tech N9ne has a song called "n****r" where he talks about how it's just a word and that it shouldn't affect you when you hear it (for those who don't know Tech N9ne is a rapper who's black).

Edited by J1bber: 7/31/2015 3:53:34 PMSo what you are saying is that you are tired of being an oppressed member of the majority... also... The "blame the victim" approach... bold move...

I understand what youre getting at but you have to remember the dames were called all sorts of nasty things, were insulted a lot, and even received -blam!- threats. I honestly dont care about an all female team however restrictive it may be. What i do care about is -blam!- threats because it is disgusting and those jokes should never be tolerated.

White Knight 3: BRILLIANT!! The Dames will have to acknowledge us then!! White Knight Number 1: It's full proof, gentlemen, we are getting laid. *Council in unison* LET EM HAVE IT BOYS ITS TIME TO PUT AWAY THE LOTION AND THE FLESHLIGHTS!

Agreed, not defending those remarks by any means. Just stating the general sense of how sexism and racism are closely related in terms of discrimination. [b]Generally[/b] how all a "X only" group of people usually are. Haven't looked into anything about the Dames but from what I hear they are very nice.
-
What youre saying is true. They are wrong for that but it is covered up by what happened to them and sadly no one cares about it because theyre just a few females trying to have fun in video games without males. If some males tried that they would be labeled a sexist. People should just be generally more accepting of each other.

Edited by Raider TCK: 7/31/2015 2:58:54 PMUnfortunately, what happened on twitch, such as the sexual harassment threats, is a pretty good justification for having a clan that represents women. And I would pay to see black men can't swim.
-
Your completely correct.
-
They want to play with other people who treat them equally and don't freak out whenever they play with a woman. That isn't sexist. I never get shit for being a man or my skill being questioned because of my sex, could you imagine what that feels like on a regular basis? I have no problem with all girl clans.

Edited by ShadowStrider09: 7/31/2015 2:24:24 AMDamn truth, it's so supid But doesn't mean you should discriminate, you're not helping you're making it worse, the human race is disgusting and stupid, we'll always find something to bitch about.
-
Pretty much.
-
I have come unglued at the comparison between "white men can't jump" and "black people cant swim" I hope woody and Wesley make a sequel called that and they hustle some upper class swimmers lol.
-
That would be hilarious. Hustling people in the 100 meter backstroke lol.
-
But they are meeting peacefully not bashing
-
You're a moron.

Edited by Lobster Fish 2: 7/31/2015 1:40:41 AMRacism and Sexism are based on systems of oppression. Never in history have whites nor males been a minority being oppressed against. Whites and males have never been in a minority, powerless system. For these simple reasons "reverse sexism" and "reverse racism" don't exist. Get your facts straight.
-
Hm pretty sure Jewish males were oppressed at some point I can't quite put my finger on when though...
-
That's called Antisemitism. They weren't oppressed because they were male. They were oppressed because they were Jewish.
-
Are you implying that black people are not in a position of power? Check the POTUS.... lol

Yeah they don't exist in reverse because Sexism is Sexism and Racism is Racism. Bet you really enjoyed that Women's Study class.

Not a Women Study's class; general knowledge about the world around me.
