Hurt

[G-Virus]

“When a woman reaches orgasm with a man she is only collaborating with the patriarchal system, eroticizing her own oppression.”

Why do quotes like this disgust me?

I think it has something to do with the fact that I could never imagine hurting someone I love. I also think it has something to do with making me believe that sex and pleasure has really been pushed to the forefront of our everyday thoughts (this one may not be apparent for most but when I read something like this it rings true for me). I also think it has something to do with the fact that I believe men and women are ying and yang and I am hurt when I feel women feel they are being oppressed.

On a side note, I don't even know why we (humans) yell in arguments, we aren't usually listening when it's at that point anyway, so it really is not necessary.

It's a really fringe opinion I think. I wouldn't dwell on it too much.

It's obviously a quote from someone who goes through life being contrary, and somewhat perverse.
I would think hardly any women feel that way.
I could never be persuaded to accept it as true.
It's ridiculous.
She obviously has authority issues, too.

I hear feminist propaganda like this, and I can see where they are coming from...

But I cannot help but feel the way you do.

If they are in love, there is no oppression. So... as long as the woman and man are using sex appropriately... this shouldn't apply in the least!!!
