Alright, final explanation and apology time

I am about to explain this blog and the post that I made earlier.

imnotamisandristbut is a tumblr that appears to be a site that is all in on the women’s rights movement! The author seems like a total misandrist, a hardcore feminist!

But… No. What this tumblr is all about is drawing attention to points of view that may be offensive, crude, or downright wrong.

Take this one for example, the one I posted about earlier:

Look, okay. So you get a pencil sharpener that has sharpened like a hundred pencils, that’s a really good pencil sharpener, right? Doin’ its job. But then if you get a pencil that’s been sharpened like a hundred times, it’s just this stupid little stub. Probably has a flat eraser.

I’m not a misandrist. I’m just saying, boys: nobody likes dull pencils.

This one is drawing attention to the lock and key saying. The problem which this one is bringing to attention is that if a woman has a lot of sex, she is a slut. If a man has a lot of sex, he is a total stud and hero to mankind.

And that is the problem. The fact that two genders can do the exact same thing, but one is viewed negatively, while the other is praised highly.

The alteration which imnotamisandristbut created gives the exact opposite perspective.

Man + Lots of sex = BAD!

Woman + Lots of sex = GOOD!

And here is the thing, imnotamisandristbut isn’t saying which version is right and which is wrong, or that both are sluts or both are heroes. It is simply drawing attention to a problem which affects many people.

So I am sorry to everyone who got the wrong idea, or who became confused, or angry, or anything like that! I posted this because it is drawing attention (in what I think is a humorous way) to a current issue.

I guess it might be time for a vote (even though this is a personal blog and one should be able to post what they wish as no one is being forced to read anything on here in particular).

I’ll create a poll once this has been posted.

Okay?

Okay?

Cool.

Once again, sorry that people misunderstood/became confused/hate me 5EVUR/etc.

This is the kind of world we live in today

If your suggestion as an administrator is to tell a teenage girl to go under the knife instead of telling a teenage boy to respect women, you are in the wrong damn line of work.

People need to fucking STOP telling girls that it’s THEIR fault that they’re being harassed. It’s the fault of the male; THEY ARE THE ONES FUCKING DOING IT.

DON’T TELL US TO NOT GET HARASSED. TELL THE MALE POPULATION TO NOT FUCKING HARASS.

 

Just found out that…

Dan Radcliffe, Tobey Maguire, and Shia LaBeouf were all considered to play Bilbo Baggins in the Hobbit. Thankfully, the role had gone to Martin Freeman.

Bilbo is NOT Harry Potter, is NOT Spiderman, and is CERTAINLY NOT a cannibal. That would be madness!

You see, the problem with each of those 3 actors is that they have all become icons  due to large movies in which they starred. For movies like the Woman in Black, it’s not detrimental. That wasn’t a large franchise, and really was “just a movie.”

Bilbo Baggins, however, is an entity all in himself. He is an icon in the LOTRs movies. To mix that character with anyone (or anything) otherwise would be a terrible mistake. Detrimental to the film. There would also be a problem with different fandoms mixing together. Granted, this doesn’t seem like a very big deal, and it isn’t, but movies like the Hobbit require an audience that really appreciate the world that J. R. R. Tolkein created. People going to see the movie in hopes of revitalizing their old HP adoration would be left disappointed.

Icons are icons for a reason, and as soon as they start to get mixed up, what they stand for gets blurred, and the real meaning behind it all gets lost.

Not to mention, Radcliffe, Maguire, and LaBeouf could never pull off the Hobbit look.

This browser sucks camel balls. NOT EVEN KIDDING. I can’t type a single sentence on the internet without a mega huge amount of lag.And the whole private-browsing thing it’s got going on always loses me. With other browsers’ “incgognito” windows (like Chrome and Opera), they pop up as new windows, which is easy and super easy to kill in times of blind panic (not that I have any reason to… No, really. I don’t. I don’t fear my history bar). With Firefox, however, it turns the already-existing windows into incognito ones.The problem with this is that it’s not just a simple ‘kill-click’ and then all clear, because then all tabs from before get lost as well. You need to click a few different things before it all goes back to the way it was.

KIND OF A HASSLE.

It’s also not the quickest of browsers that I’ve used. Sure, it’s no IE, but Chrome could lap this thing in a second. I want my Chrome back. It was the only one that could take my mass amount of interneting.
