I am a man and an avid motorcyclist and I think I "get" what feminism is about. My understanding of the goal of feminism is to stop the objectification of women as SOLELY sexual beings.
I don't believe that you are trying very hard to further the cause. I respect that you are a person first, not just a thing that was placed on this planet for men to "fuck". But maybe you could cut us guys a break by not parading around with your big, beautiful, spandex-wrapped, bubble butt propped up on the back of that shiny crotch rocket while screaming "my eyes are up here, man". If you're really the motorcycle purist that you claim, you would never wear those pants; you would have leathers on or at least some moto jeans.
This post was plainly and simply intended to publicly stroke your ego while maintaining a thin veil of feministic ire.
Ride safe.
It is funny that you see me as a person first but right after that I am an object for you. Funny how that works - right?
So because I am a female and I choose to ride in yoga pants once in awhile - I am doing what wrong here? How many men ride shirtless, shorts, flip flops and etc. However, because I am a female and want respect for something other than my body - I should ride ATGATT? That is the definition of sexism. In order for me a female to gain respect - I MUST wear full gear always. What an obnoxious sexist viewpoint to have. If you don't believe you're being sexist then read the definition.
sex·ism
ˈsekˌsizəm/Submit
noun
prejudice, stereotyping, or discrimination, typically against women, on the basis of sex.
synonyms: sexual discrimination, chauvinism, gender prejudice, gender bias
I don't need my ego stroked - I can walk outside and get attention without a bike and in full workout attire with no skin showing. Trust me there are a lot of thirsty males out there giving all of the attention - all of the time. I don't need it - I wear what I feel comfortable in.
Men who believe women need to cover up are the same who victim blame women when they wear little clothing and are sexually assaulted by men.
You are lacking self awareness. There's no point in engaging with you really, but you're just so far off base you should hear it. You don't demand respect, you earn it. You completely objectify yourself, then complain about others doing it to you. You talk trash on men AND women. You're not a feminist. You are SELFISH. It's you, you, you. And you're not even hot, so get over yourself. Seriously.
You gave us an ass shot. You are whoring yourself out to the internet, Nothing wrong with that. Just don't claim you aren't objectifying yourself. The Cognitive Dissonance is real. Oh and I guarantee that you objectify me, one look at me shirtless, i'm irresistible babe. Love the booty, Do you squat? If not you should be, Make it a fucking masterpiece.
It works too, look at the pay out for the ass shots.
Wow, this sounds like arrogance. Not common sense or a good, nice selfesteem. It sounds more like "I'm fucking hot. I know it."
And it doesn't bother me. Very well. Everybody has his own ego, more or less a huge one. No problem there.
What it's really interesting is that with your above statement you just proved the opposite of "I don't like to be seen as an object. I'm a human being."
Of course you are, of course. One hot human being, of course.
Preach brother!
