Well I agree that feelings of bigotry don’t get protection just because they’re feeling. But it’s an interesting point, no? What you ir I might feel is right or wrong is different than what other people might feel is right or wrong. Even if there was some sort of definitive right and wrong, people’s feelings are what they feel. Thinking your feelings should be protected, but other’s shouldn’t seems a little hypocritical.
But I digress, what I’m really interested in is what things you think are gender characteristics (that aren’t stereotypes, and aren’t used to make judgments or enforce unfair rules).
Don’t make the mistake of starting from the “enlightened centrist” hypothesis that everyone’s a little bit right and working backwards to a justification why an absolute moral position is supposedly hypocritical.
This isn’t about my feelings, this is about a right to self-actualization.
And you clearly didn’t understand my point if you are getting hung up on this idea of gender stereotypes. I could be 150 cm with humongous pendulous tits, hair down to my BBL, a miniskirt and a crop-top with my nipples poking through, 30 cm stillettos, Marilyn Monroe’s face, enough makeup to smother a small child, and the brattiest attitude you’ve ever seen in your life. That still would not give anyone the right to be sexist. You’re the one bringing sexism into this like it’s somehow inextricable from the experience of gender.
Well that’s quite a mental
Image! And I’m not challenging anyone’s right to self actualize - I certainly encourage it.
But it’s not that I’m hung up on gender stereotypes it’s just that I don’t see how there is any gender ‘experience’ without being based on sexually stereotypes. Please just explain any such gender experience or characteristic.
