YES! Where's the "Who cares" option?


Er. Not caring... basically means... you shouldn't even feel the need to vote... Or look at the poll... You can ignore the poll! That's what it means to not care...? So why would you need an option for not caring... confused


Also.

Holy pooper scoopers!

This poll has stirred up much of the MU community! Why can't we just all enjoy b00bs and move along... So much text... I want to read it all... But... words everywhere!

Voted average though prefer my original female manga characters bust sizes to range from realistically big to tastefully below average.

1. Socially perceived "average" and literal average are too very different things. The literal average size of every woman in america is size 14, but I don't see that represented in any media as the image we should strive for and I highly doubt a poll about what a woman's size should be with an "average" option would mean size 14 to many people either.


It would have probably been better to put cup sizes as options, but that's only a minor issue.

2. This is actually a scientific fact that men and women are socialized to see women as objects. There have been numerous psychological tests done to prove this shit. The brain literally functions differently when seeing images of sexualized men and women. Look it up on your own. You have access to google.


Let's say this were true, how would men be at fault then? How can you condemn them for something the brain does automatically?

Quote from cowsrawesome
3. Internalized misogyny is a thing, but men are the ones who run the media in the majority that idealizes women in a certain way. This is really basic 101 shit.


The media displays what the people want to see, that is how they make money. And half of the viewership is female, so they show them what females want to see. The times when media only catered to male interests are long over.

Quote from cowsrawesome
4. This poll is objectifying even if people don't interpret it that specific way.


Again with the paranoia.

Quote from cowsrawesome
5. I've never once said I was a feminist. That was the label you used. I'm just a woman who doesn't like being objectified by random men, either on the streets or on the internet. If expressing an opinion on why I don't think women should be treated as objects makes me a feminist in your eyes, and feminism has a negative connotation, then that says much more about you than it does about me.


There is nothing wrong with feminism, there is just something wrong with hateful people such as you. My belief is that both genders should walk hand-in-hand towards the future. In a future where both genders are to be treated equal there is no place for grudges or hatred against the other gender. Mutual understanding is the key, not wild accusations and polemics.

Don't waste your time. A good chunk of it are the delusional ramblings of a certain member who shall not be named. roll

Haha, we all know who it is. I agree, quite delusional. Just reading it caused me to lose some faith in humanity lol. Just trying to look for a good comment not arguing about this poll was hard....

On another note, I am disappointed with the low turnout for tiny and flat-chested. Pettankos need more love.

There's no indication of sexism on this poll. You're the sexist is what I said. Because you connote comments of breasts and whatever else in this topic with sexual meanings that doesn't exist before you create them.

You're misunderstanding something else too. No one wants your list of books that support your biased views. The point was your scientific facts are pseudo-scientific and no facts at all and even to them you're unable to provide proper source.

You seem to be trying to make a point that sexism exists. No one claimed it doesn't. The point was that there's none here except on part of those who perceive it in such way and bring it out—i.e. you.

You never disproved my points either. Example: "That's just marketing. And what you're talking about is only products related to appearance. And it's in no way unique to women either." Where I didn't say you're wrong but only pointed out that what you're doing is akin to white propaganda.

All of your even slightly logical arguments mean nothing when you tell absolutely without any basis what kind of person and with what intentions that person suggested this poll did it other than your misandrist prejudices.

And I'm not going to give any more arguments in counter to lists of books, arguments of a different subject or discredit attempts. That means, basically, to anything you seem to be capable of coming up any more.

What I said:
Quote from 狂気
貧乳はステータ スだ!希少価値 だ!

How'd that translate? "Tiny chest is status symbol! Rare value item!" If you allow me to be a bit liberal. Well, those who know what I'm talking about know what I'm talking about. I'm just quoting Konata, really. I know I'd hate having huge breasts.
