"Bikini Bridge" upsetting fat people and Feminists - Polidicks

[QUOTE=Tools;43456460]I still don't get what the deal is with obese people who're complaining. Heck I don't get the deal with people complaining about their physique in general. If you've got a problem with it, perhaps you should [I]deal with it[/I] instead of just sitting around on a computer, writing your opinion. I'm skinny, 5'7" and 125lbs, and I fucking hate it. Solution? Bought 100lbs worth of weights, set myself the challenge to lift it all in one arm by 2015.[/QUOTE] we learn nothing that way.

[QUOTE=milkandcooki;43456449]yeah, men are pressured too. everybody's pressured to achieve some kind of perfection that nobody can reach. i'm talking about women right now, tho, who have [I]a lot[/I] more pressure put on them.[/QUOTE] Are you fucking kidding me? Men and Women are under the same amount of pressure. But society has told guys to "man up" and hide that shit. And I will quote you. [quote]you, as a dude, have basically no pressure to be a certain size compared to women[/quote] You stated that men are under no pressure, don't be a hypocrite, thanks!

[QUOTE=milkandcooki;43456410]look at the cover of women-targeted magazines. "TOP WAYS TO LOSE WEIGHT! LOOK LIKE A DIVA!" look at TV commercials. scantily-clad, thin, perfect skinned woman in a yogurt commercial. i should have put [I]tries to [/I] before "makes women feel like shit" tbh, tho.[/QUOTE] women's magazines also have tons of sex related buzzwords. does that make women feel like shit for not being sluts? in what way would 'tips to lose weight' on the cover of a magazine make someone feel like shit? do you seriously think that a woman cannot look at a skinnier woman without thinking 'i would do anything to be that skinny'

You stated that men are under no pressure, don't be a hypocrite, thanks![/QUOTE] basically. in the most essential respects; fundamentally. not [I]exactly[/I] no pressure, or [I]zero[/I] pressure, [I]basically[/I] no pressure [i]COMPARED[/I] to women. i'm sorry if my initial post wasn't 100% clear, but arguing semantics won't get anybody anywhere.

[QUOTE=bdd458;43456480]Are you fucking kidding me? Men and Women are under the same amount of pressure. But society has told guys to "man up" and hide that shit. And I will quote you. You stated that men are under no pressure, don't be a hypocrite, thanks![/QUOTE] this is oversimplifying. the pressure is different and the way we deal with that pressure is different. there's a lot of excellent literature on this. if you really do care about this subject you should check it out.

I helped organise this. I ended up writing and editing some of the piratepad manifesto under the monkier "shitlord". Good times. I personally think this is hilarious, especially since even though the feminists KNOW we're behind this, they still bitch and rage about us. It's been a huge success. Whether or not some newfag whiteknights or whatever is irrelevant. The feminists and fat people we're pissing off don't care, they're just looking for something to get pissed off about. It's hilarious.

[QUOTE=milkandcooki;43456475]nobody's really been saying this verbatim, but i'm really hating this "but we're pressured and we suffer too! you're not allowed to feel bad!" kind of attitude i've been seeing in threads like these over the internet.[/QUOTE] The scared/hurt/enraged guys that come out with guns blazing in these debates always has and continue to baffle me to no end like how can empowering women and acknowlegeing the problems we collectively face scare them so much

[QUOTE=Tacosheller;43456493]hi i know you're trying to prove your argument but it doesn't work if you put evidence against your argument in your quote[/QUOTE] But that's a fucking lie. And you know it. If you really think men are under nearly "no pressure" to look a certain way than you're delusional. If you even bothered to walk into a boy's locker room during High-School, seen any ads featuring men on TV. [video=youtube;owGykVbfgUE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owGykVbfgUE[/video]

[QUOTE=thisispain;43456573]explain the boy's locker room one. thats a very homoerotic situation imo[/QUOTE] Every day during middle school I was fucking bullied because I was larger than other guys (hell, one of the guys who always pulled this shit was fatter than me, but that's a different story), or because I hated the smell of axe body spray, etc. It continued into my Freshman year of Highschool, but then you know, I started to conform with this other group, and surprise it fucking stopped. Its real, and we don't deal with it.

[QUOTE=Tacosheller;43456546]no but if you make a bunch of different ads with the exact same body type over and over and say they're beautiful people without representing anyone who looks different you're kind of telling people that being a skinny brunette with a sharp face is the only way to go [t]http://puu.sh/6dm7y.jpg[/t] [t]http://files.coloribus.com/files/adsarchive/part_1166/11668605/file/water-beautiful-woman-small-66429.jpg[/t] [t]http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-HYTqzzeRHXE/UC2gEYTBu2I/AAAAAAAABW4/K5HhYbZDi5s/s640/TomFordBeautyAd-394x540.jpg[/t][/QUOTE] What's wrong with the middle one?

also i rarely see men licking bottles of alcohol and seductively opening tupperware on billboards and on tv. there's a lot of objectification in the media going on with women that i rarely see with men unless it's a tongue-and-cheek kind of thing.

[QUOTE=Gwoodman;43456593]Excuse me?[/QUOTE] You asked if the US lives in an alternate reality that nobody else sees because "this shit never happens here" here presumably being Portugal. Fairly certain that the US isn't the only country on the face of the planet to have women's image issues.

I'm rocking some Marilyn Manson's Beautiful People on utube right now. I'm totally getting the message.

[QUOTE=demoguy08;43456595]Holy shit are you seriously going to continue down this road women are exploited to no end in media this is BASIC fucking stuff dude[/QUOTE] Where did I state women aren't? I'm only saying that men are as well, and we're blind to it because of how society treats men and masculinity.
