This is why feminism isn't taken serious nowadays
Women used to fight with decent clothes, fit with their knowknowledge and bravery
They fought for the right to vote to get education, to have the chance to express and archive as much as a man can
But now ''feminists'' go around riot like bunches of uneducated chickens
Dressing like whores or not even wearing anything at all
And what do they fucking fight for
To be able to wear pants that show their whole butts, to walk around shirtless
To act like and write ''slut'' on their body but don't get called one
.
Years of fighting and working for their rights that our ancestors had made
And this is the present
Shame
So, there's this idea called "respectability politics" that more and more social groups are moving away from. They believe that playing the respectful, modest person quietly working toward change plays into the hands of the oppressor, ie. if you look the right way and act the right way, people will listen to you. But the right way is often the way those you're fighting against want you to act and look. So, they rebel in whatever way they can.
Can we also talk about how Suffragettes were NOT "proper, respictible women" as the original post implies? After politeness didn't work, they started fucking shit up. Literally, these women became militants, causing lots of "can you hear me now, fuckers?" property damage and going on hunger strikes. Lots of them were jailed to try and curtail the movement. But OP did try very nicely to erase that part of their history with this "nice girls" picture.
Thank you, that is a very good point. It looks quaint and wholesome by today's standards, but some of these woman were rebelling against an unfair system any way they could.
Well, a hunger strike isn't a crime, which is something they were jailed and force-fed for. So, no, I mean "lots of them were jailed to try and curtail the movement." Because while some of them were committing crimes as well, that wasn't the sole reason for the jailing. But thanks for playing.
FYI: The "nice women" on the left are Christabel Pankhurst and Annie Kenney, known for their violent tactics and membership in a militant wing of the British Suffragette movement. So what OP is trying to say is apparently "don't peacefully protest with visual representation of owning your own body...set churches on fire instead."
The ones on the right suck dick in college for free and are cum dumpsters. I like the ones on the right. They will achieve nothing more tha~ giving me a boner going to bed with me willingly and then screaming rape as soon as I fuck her and move on. No respect for bitches like that.
The slut walk, from what I understand it, is supposed to bring awareness to the fact that no matter how you dress you are not asking for rape (women and men). I don't see why they get so much flack for it to be honest.
Because tons of people still see an attractive body--male or female--and think it's not fair that they can't have that/look like that so they do anything to put them down. "Ugh, he's such a Chad," because how dare a man be attractive and use it to impress girls the neckbeards want? "Ew, she's such a slut," because how dare a woman be attractive and like having sex with all those guys the frumpy girls can't get to look at them? Getting worked up over what a stranger looks like/dresses like/chooses to do seems to be a trait of people who aren't on that level and want to pull people down.
Everyone's Gunna die. Left ones already are. Rights ones eventually will. I will. Everyone reading this will. Doesn't matter. Buy a mcflurry and enjoy yourself
you know what this is a really good post and here is why, it is without context. While I suspect the creator had a specific point to make here the end result could be argued to support both sides of the cause. Because really even if those women in 1915 would have been ashamed of the women in 2015 never the less today we all have a right to make a fool of ourselves in almost any way we wish(and again I stress that i make no comment on ether). I won't say that some of you are right and some wrong the truth is probably somewhere in the middle as it so often is and short snappy text based arguments in a comment section are hardly the place to find those difficult truths. I guess what I want to say is that look at how different the world we live in today is, regardless of weather you like those girls or not, the world has CHANGED.
Calling yourself a slut is not feminism , it objectifying yourself , woman will never be taken seriously if we objectify and portray ourselves as the sluts and stereotypes men assume us to be
I'm not a feminist because I think the movement's become ridiculous, however what most people aren't realizing is that the one on the left was considered just as outrageous by the people back then as the one on the right is today.

Are you sure they weren't jailed for committing crimes?
No, but were they trespassing or disturbing the peace?
