For Every Girl, For Every Boy



See? It sucks to be either sex.

Kind of weird that they couldn't think of anything a woman has which a guy wants more than an E-Z-Bake Oven.

I specifically used "sex" rather than "gender" as a result of "sex" being sensible while "gender" is socially constructed nonsense.

I realize that the image is focusing upon gender roles, rather than sex. But as the image is meant to critique gender roles, and their flaws, I thought it sensible to direct my comment at sex, rather than gender.

At the moment it sucks to be either sex as a result of gender. But, if we could all come to realize that gender is fuck-buttingly stupid then we could simply have the category "has a penis" and the category "has a vagina" and any of those persons could simply do whatever the fuck they wanted and be whatever the fuck they wanted given that there is nothing about having a penis or a vagina which impacts anything anyone can do apart from with regard to one's need to stand or sit while pissing.



To the question of "what about people without penises or vaginas, or people who have both?" Well, we treat them in the same way that we treat the platypus; we shoehorn them into one of our already existing categories. Or we create a new category, such as monotreme to account for the weirdos.

Fucking monotremes, how do they work?
