| jledbetter | cool! | 01:32 |
| MichelleQ | Thought I'd pass it along, if any of you have or know chirrens who might be interested in participating. | 01:34 |
| Cheri703 | do we think that is a troll or? | 01:43 |
| jledbetter | No idea. | 01:43 |
| Cheri703 | ok, not wanting to jump to conclusions, but...dunno | 01:43 |
| Cheri703 | am wary | 01:43 |
| MichelleQ | I'm gonna jump to that conclusion yes. | 01:44 |
| elky | ze has been trolling #defocus for the past week that i've seen | 01:44 |
| Cheri703 | /whois says "tony fisher" | 01:44 |
| Cheri703 | ok | 01:44 |
| elky | yes, ze is claiming to be a transman I assume | 01:44 |
| MichelleQ | I'm very tempted to actually give my opinion on the slutwalks. | 01:46 |
| elky | MichelleQ, remembering that such questions are usually trying to get us to fight over the issue. | 01:47 |
| MichelleQ | I know. | 01:47 |
| * MichelleQ is not | 01:47 | |
| jledbetter | I had to look them up. | 01:47 |
| MichelleQ | They've been the topic of discussion amongst my radical feminist friends. | 01:49 |
| MichelleQ | And while I appreciate their intented message, I take issue with the terms they use to describe themselves. | 01:50 |
| elky | MichelleQ, you mean slur reclamation? | 01:51 |
| MichelleQ | yes. I'm not 100% convinced that the manner in which they are reclaming the word is appropriate, and I'm also unconvinced that 'slut' is a term that needs reclamation | 01:53 |
| * Cheri703 has NO desire in any capacity to be referred to as a slut, regardless of intentions | 01:53 | |
| elky | It kinda wouldn't work if it were "womenwalk" it does need to be the term used, or something of equal value. | 02:03 |
| MichelleQ | I'm not so sure it does. Yes, I understand the principle, but I think it can be accomplished in completely different terms. | 02:06 |
| Cheri703 | I agree with MichelleQ...I think that the point can be conveyed just as clearly but with different terms | 02:07 |
| elky | Im not sure you can imply irony. | 02:07 |
| elky | You have to demonstrate it. | 02:07 |
| MichelleQ | I suspect the irony gets lost in the 'omgboobies' reaction, though | 02:08 |
| Cheri703 | take back the night = much better concept imo https://easilyriled.wordpress.com/2011/04/20/slut-walk-sigh/ | 02:10 |
