#6 The Straw Feminist (Tropes vs. Women) - YouTube

At 3:00 she is rolling her eyes because a "straw feminist" objected to "semester" and wanted it called "ovester". Of course Christina Hoff Sommers has reported for years how her colleague renamed "seminars" or "ovulars.

Around 7:30, with a roll of her eyes, Sarkeesian announces that no women would fake a rape to blame men as they did in Veronica Mars. But in fact, instead of an eye roll and claim that women would not fake such a thing, we have seen some very famous claims (as recently as the late July occurrence in Lincoln Nebraska) as COTWA rolls out more every single day. Intriguingly, SALON's Mary Elizabeth Williams, wrote of two women that faked having cancer just a day or so ago: http://www.salon.com/2012/09/27/who_fakes_having_cancer/

A couple of other things: maybe as a result of kickstarter money, this video at 10:00 is long, but is watchable. FAR too often, people put 5, 10, 15, 20, 30 minute youtube rants up here and I am amazing anyone will listen to that crapola. The guitar shredding atheist? The atheist dude that shouts down FfTB in front of his white board?

Jesus, I certainly have no time or patience for this crap.

Give me a transcript, and let me get on with my life, but get out of my face with your terrible video rants.

It's actually useful though to listen or read feminist arguments. Sun Tsu, It is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles; if you do not know your enemies but do know yourself, you will win one and lose one; if you do not know your enemies nor yourself, you will be imperiled in every single battle.

Anyway

Couldn't watch the whole thing, the irony was just too thick. Pretty much the definition of a straw feminist telling us that there is no such thing as a straw feminist. She'll be completely forgotten about in the next few years.

She mentions that power puff girls villain in her argument and it come to me, she can't separate those who are advocating for female supremacy from feminists....

Wonder why that would be.
