One of the MANY stupid things about this kind of argument: the line that borders how much is showing \u201ctoo much\u201d, the outfit that supposedly \u201cforces men to think about fucking them\u201d\u2014 is completely and utterly arbitrary.<\/p>\n<p>There was a time when women showing their ANKLES was utterly scandalous in most of the western world, and would have caused men like this to say \u201cwell she was asking for it, look how she was dressed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And what about cultural variance? During a slightly later time when women in the west could \u201csafely\u201d expose their ankles (but not their knees!), there were countries in the \u201cBritish Empire\u201d (colonialism being a whole other post) whose cultures forbade their arms to be exposed.<\/p>\n<p>And so on.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Would looking at my ankles make your \u201cinner caveman\u201d think about fucking me? \u00a0How about looking at my elbows? No? Then how did your \u201cinner caveman\u201d get slightly more \u201ccivilized\u201d than the inner cavemen of the 1910s, and how did\u00a0<em>their<\/em>\u00a0inner cavemen get more civilized than the Victorian ones? \u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span>The bullshit \u201coh but it\u2019s just evolution\/biology!\u201d argument doesn\u2019t hold up to even the tiniest examination. \u201cModesty\u201d rules have never been about anything but controlling women, and \u201cevolution\u201d arguments about behavior have never been about anything but blaming women for whatever happens to them when they step out of male control.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>vixyish: gracediamondsfear: assbutt-in-the-garrison: alicetookadrink: Hey so to protect one of my friends I\u2019ve decided to help her out by posting this on my blog instead.
