okay so I've been fuming about this for DAYS and I expect many of you have been too. Not that we needed this shooting in California to Spotlight it, but there is an extreme issue today with "men" assuming they have the right to women simply because they have penises. I can't think of a better place to vent about this, because this site is full of thousands of men who, while they enjoy looking at our naked bodies, do not ASSUME we are going to speak to them, or be with them simply because of that. Never once on this site have I had someone harass me to no end, and then call me a slut or tell me I should die because I denied them, yet it's something I see daily on most social media sites- and not just sgs/hopefuls, it happens to any woman who is confident in herself. I myself experienced this last night, after having a picture of my butt deleted off ig and a moron telling me "maybe if you read the guidelines you'd understand that maybe your post showed too much skin and you should avoid that in the future." Now while I'm aware there are ig guidelines (and they are dumb) I was posting that photo under the #bootyrevolution hashtag in support of the biased use of said guidelines. And upon saying this to him, I received a reply something to the effect of "fine I hope you get raped and die stupid bitch I was just trying to help you but you deserve to die"
REALLY? First of all, who the fuck even asked for your opinion on why my photo was deleted? Secondly, I decline your misguided and stupid "advice" and you tell me I should get raped and die because of it...is this even real life?
So naturally, I screen shotted and posted, received loads of positive "fuck that guy!" And "this is who gives men bad names" comments from men, which is another reason this is not a "I hate men!" Post. I don't, I know there are good men, I know some are just shitty scumbags that give respectable men bad names.
Anyways, I just got a dm from someone who apparently knows the dude saying the fucked up shit. Spewing some nonsense about how his account got hacked and it wasn't him. I brushed it off with a simple, yeah that's bullshit but ok whatever. He then goes on to say how he understand things like this are to be expected because I'm a hopeful but it's still wrong.
Okay I'm trying to give this guy credit, cause he's really trying here...but I needed to explain to him- the problem is just that! Just because I chose to express myself by modeling nude (with class, might I add) DOES NOT GIVE ANYONE the right to demean or talk down to me or wish rape upon me. That is a perpetuation of rape culture and I just cannot stand it! I could sleep with every man in town and wear nothing but a bikini my whole life and it STILL wouldn't give anyone the right to expect ANYTHING from me.
I am just so disgusted with recent events, the fact that the murderer in Cali (I refuse to say his name) has FAN PAGES, and friends, and other like minded individuals who think of him as a hero, a martyr.
I DONT WANT TO LIVE ON THIS PLANET ANYMORE!
Please, ladies, gents, feel free to use this blog as a discussion point, comment with your thoughts and such! I know there's other just as infuriated as I am...
Oh and end rant I guess.
