An open letter to feminists

Post Reply New Topic

Okay, I'm kind of upset right now, so this might sound like a butthurt rant, but anyway...

Dear feminists:

I've heard your rantings, read a lot of your blog posts, etc. I'm fine with most of what you say. Go ahead, bash pickup artists, pro-lifers, MRAs, etc. They deserve to be bashed, because those people are douchebags. But I just ask you this: leave nerds alone. Of all the occupations in life, the demographics that feminists seem to hate the most are scientists, computer geeks, and gamers. Just, why? What the hell did we do to you? I've seen a lot of stuff from feminists claiming that men in STEM fields are as*holes to women, and that prevents women from entering those fields, claiming that nerds are all Nice Guys™ who think they're entitled to sex but can't get it because they're losers, claiming that gamers objectify women because female video game characters are skimpily dressed.

I see and hear a lot of those rants from feminists. And guess what. I haven't seen a single feminist complaining about the rappers who degrade women in their lyrics and music videos. I haven't seen a single feminist complaining about the football players who rape countless women and get away with it. Those people are exempt from your scorn. Their misogyny doesn't bother you.

You know that computer you're using to complain about nerds? You have that computer because of nerds. You know that Internet that you're using to complain about us? That was also given to you by nerds. Nerds have given you the first-world standard of living you take for granted, and all we get from you is "Damn sexually frustrated losers. Stop whining about not getting laid and grow a spine." (I am asexual, by the way, so don't try to hurl that insult at me.)

If someone can point me to some feminist rants bashing rappers, jocks, etc. that would make me feel a lot better. But I have a feeling there aren't any. In fact I tried searching for some earlier today, and all I could find was more feminists complaining about nerds. That's why I got upset enough to post this. I challenge you, show me one, just one, feminist rant about rappers, jocks, or similar people. Because face it, all men are as*holes; we're just as*holes in different ways.

Nerds are the people that respond, it's just sad lonely people on two ends of the spectrum that distrust and don't understand each other. SJWs don't go after rappers because of their bizarre Byzantine views about intersectionality and the fact most SJWs fall below most famous rappers who are black men in terms of the oppression Olympics. They don't feel it is their place to police their culture, they are oppressors and who must check their privilege.
