You know what's kind of a shame? She's not a bad-looking girl.

She's somewhat unattractive, but not unfuckable.

The funny thing is, posts like this talking about her overall level of attractiveness, or posts where people dismiss her by pointing out that they think she's a dog, or rating her in terms of fuckability (which usually make up about 25-50% of all posts in any topic where her name comes up) are really just playing into her hands by effectively proving her claims of institutionalized sexism, since apparently we're all demonstrating that a woman has no real intellectual or philosophical value whatsoever by sexually objectifying her. Clearly, culture or biology has rendered all men incapable of actually listening to a woman or trying to reason with her logically or rationally, because that clearly gets in the way of the baby-makin'.

And yes, I know one of the main arguments is that it's hard to argue rationally and logically with someone who isn't really being rational or logical and who is basing a lot of their presumptions on flawed data or outright lies, but it really doesn't matter because she can still point and yell sexism and there will always be people willing to believe it. And like most debates online, the TRUTH doesn't even remotely matter in the slightest, because online debate has NEVER been about "truth". It's been about "winning" via rhetorical tricks and deliberately manipulative language. And that's generally true regardless of the topic, be it social issues, politics, religion, or whatever - and it always comes from BOTH sides of every argument. There's no real moral high ground when pretty much everyone is wading waist-deep in a river of shit.


But also, I'd totally throw my sausage down her hallway if she wanted to have a go.
